You must be frugal, I mean, for you to have saved up to $2100 within 2 years, from your meagre N25,000 per month salary then.

Okontami: I started my life with 10,000 naira per month salary almost 10yrs ago. But now its Which I hardly spend cos am always traveling . Life is stage. All you need is time and trust in God. Never despise a little beginning

Aijalon: u foolish 4 dat,una dey do ritual??

Maricuzi: After NYSC 2010, I got a teaching job @ 15k. Less than 8months I got a contract job @ 110k for 16months. Now am out of d job, searchin for a new one

The 110k really help cos I ve a camry now and a little savings for feedin , till I find a new job.

saintgwizard: I know people that earn 1.0M after tax, it all depends on the level u are.

tessyade: If i may ask why the camry when you know the job is contract? How are you able to fuel and maintain the car now that the job is not available? You should have thought of this before buying it.

DailyNews:

Of course we all know that...some NLNG staffs earn up to that...and some AGIP staffs too, from what I know...but that's not what we should be telling the public, remember, there are millions of unemployed graduate youths in Nigeria today, who are far more better than those being paid that exorbitant salary you mentioned, so it is not always by our intelligence but God's divine grace...so therefore, do not talk about that here this is a public forum...you need to encourage the youths who are still searching for jobs, and don't even mind doing peanut jobs just to survive, so telling them that some people earn 1M, 2M, will only make them feel left out...pls let's all desist from such acts and encourage one another....thanks all

jkbimmy: As à fresh graduate then, started with 150k, after 1 yr increased to 250k above....now I manage to earn, 980,000k à month and still need more. Life is in stages...we all get there...

Billyonaire:

Yes, I am. It was a natural survival instinct. But now, the music is different.

It is not as if I believe that your story , no . Anyways, more grease to your elbow . I for one, I started my present flourishing business conglomerates with just $120 , that was some 6 years ago after losing my initial business capital that worth close to $200,000 . In a nutshell , what any good entrepreneur need first is good business idea , with that in place , a little capital and solid contacts will see you through to the top .

richarts:

God bless u. Just talk to an unemployed graduate what he or she should not decline. Thats the essence of this thread. You may drop encouragement as well and also consider what Ifyalways said... as per what she bookmarked, im impressed with that.

Thanks people.

u got a 16 month contract job at N110k per month and all u thought of was buying a Camry? 16 months and all u could boast of was a Camry? U couldnt use the money to start up something of ur own when ur contract runs out?? U bought a camry? U were a teacher, earning 15k, then had a litle oppurtunity to help urself and u bought a camry? Did u say u're looking for a new job? What for? Why not drive around town wit ur 'camry' everymorning and retire to ur house? If u were my younger brother, i would have electrocuted u, no jokes! When others wash their camry to take it to work in the morning, u stil wash urs to drive it to where? Someone else's office to submit an application for work? I HATE YOU!

ghettodreamz:

You're very funny. It means you are only worth 28K right? I think it all depends on what you think you are worth, so go for it, if 28K befits you and stop being sarcastic.

dridowu: Cant say 4 precise salary but If transport alone takes 60-70%, dn i believe d job doesn't what it

Billyonaire: Take it easy bro. Camry can get him up, if he will wash away his pride and go into taxi services.

mko abiola:
Hmmmmmmmm
Which kind oFfice or work u de
728k na lie jooooooo.
Wen country no de smile

Billyonaire: I started importation of just 1 car, and that was Honda Accord that I won't forget. The cost was $2100+shipping then. And buyer had to bring part payment for clearing, I am telling this story for others to gain from. I am no more importing cars now, but branched into oil/gas and properties.

jkbimmy: When I combine jobs proper hustling the other pay equivalent of 3 mills....

ujchief:
what are the odds of that happening? Did he sound like someone that can 'wash away his pride' and start a taxi biz? The guy is searching for a new job already!! If he was sacked, it would be understandable, but he wasnt sacked! He saw the duration of the contract, but instead of saving for the unavoidable rainy day, he choose to compete wit big guns in the city. Let him cruize his camry and stop searching for a job.
