It is always difficult to give a loaded question and expect a blancket answer. Questions are always relative and answers too are relative.

What Mr A will call a bad salary; Mr B may accept. I have seen people who were ready to work without salary just to garner the relevant years of experience for better opportunity.

However, if we want to pick an average salary, I think N60,000 for a start is not too bad. With that you can:
1. Pay your T. fare=N15,000 a month (highest)
2. Pay your tithe=N6000
3. Feed yourself=N18,000 @N600 per day
4. Cloth yourself=N5000 @ N2,500 per shirt (avg)
5. Save remaining N16,000 for future use eg writing of professional exams, etc.

Billyonaire: Yea, I understand you. Just as I stated. I started with N12,000 a month salary and never rejected a job cos of low pay, because I already graduated with a mindset that am not gonna be a paid employee for long. Every graduate out there should reject no job except you have better choices. And make sure you work in a sector you can actually learn the tricks of running such companies. Grab the industrial secrets and move on.

Ahhha nothing for charity? IMO sha oo

TayoT: A graduate in Nigeria should receive a Minimum of 100,000/month. But it also depends on location and proximity to work. But economically, anything less than this is below poverty line

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.

Cultured: Wages is for living and profit is for fortune . My advice to you guys out there is to look beyond formal employment/wages and embrace ventures that will lead to profit making . Meanwhile, all things being equal , starting from the next 10 days, I will select 10 guys in this forum and teach them how to start off any lucrative business of their choice with just only 10% worth of the supposed capital of such venture , and I wouldn't mind lending the take-off seed to the genuine less privileged ones . Lest I forget , I don't believe in gravy train , but I believe in hard work ,thou smart work is the secret of success . In the other hand , what one need to succeed in any calling is education ( formal/informal ) not degree . I Look forward to see many of you up there in ladder of financial success . Idea rules the world .

ghettodreamz: @OP;
They are all peanuts, considering the number of years one spent in school, the pain, stress, money and those burnt night candles. But with the situation of unemployment for Naija, I think any fresh graduates would want to grab any ooooo, on the basis of "Half a loaf is much more better than none", thingz..

AjanleKoko: Okay.
Lemme get this straight. So a jobless graduate would decline a job because the salary fell below his/her minimum requirements?
Okay oh

prince FAD: i get 728k monthly after tax and i am still demanding for more

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.

richarts: Now the floor is opened. If you like you people should dull yourself and not start talking.

My name is ..., I am 26, graduate with 2:1 Sociology (4.2), resuming masters soon just to develop myself and prepare myself better for the future and my visions. My strengths are writing and speaking (basically communication), creative thinking, analysis of business overview, opening of new windows or perspective into things and good relationship skills... I'm currently working (Logistics, customer service), have experience in research, media and writing (amateur level).

Just saying all this because someone out there might want someone like me and besides all this big guys here are really impressive so perhaps there is an opportunity you want to give or is open. Thanks in advance.

My mail is Aaarrrwww... cannot do that. Well reach me on; I don't even know now. Send me a PM, I don't even get PMs but please do send me a personal message. I would get it IJN.

Godmother:
My first job was 40k, then I got another a month later that was tripple that amount. I was there for 7 months before being affected by down-sizing and then was jobless for 2 years before throwing away pride and accepting a marketing job with an unstable pay.

My advice to graduates will be to not look down on any job. I have noticed that you tend to get jobs quicker when you are already working. Just continue the search and also involve God almighty.
