Independency starts at 18? Stop fooling yourself with that and learn to type. at 18, you become 'responsible for your actions' meaning you can get tried as an adult in court and you have the right to sign your driver's license, do what you want without an 'adult'. you are considered an adult at 18. This doesn't mean 18 year olds have houses and cars. some people live with parents when things are rough for their finances. ighoosagie: who said life is less expensive in nija? 1 Like |

It is illegal, thus this law applies to only LEGAL citizens. Immigrate to America and get paid under minimum wage and see who listens to you adconline: |

ozo_emeka: It is illegal, thus this law applies to only LEGAL citizens.When you have papers, if you dont have papers, you can even earn lik $3. I hve been there so I know what I'm saying........God bless Nigeria. I stayed in an apartment where what I paid is far far than what obtains in Nigeria, though life is good over there. |

Re: USA Minimum Wage Vs Nigeria Minimum Wage. by adconline(m): 9:29am On Sep 17, 2013 |
ozo_emeka: It is illegal, thus this law applies to only LEGAL citizens.Compare America's worst eg fast food worker to those in Naija's worst- Aboki Gate guards, who get paid between 5-10k/month This argument should not have started if Nigerians are really honest. We should be comparing Naija to Venezuela=N63K/mnth or Saudi $800/month 1 Like |

I believe with 400k in Nigeria you are still very ok as long as you are frugal. |

akwunomy: Why are you guys stressing yourselves on minimum wages....When you hear minimum wages...that does not mean that most Nigerians are living with minimum wages. Some are making 13-17 dollar per hour...some are doing other business in Nigeria while making the minimum wage. I have been here in California for two years and i can assure you that there are ways to survive better than the minimum wage. It depends on your planning and your status here. It is not always rossy here as many people are here without job...but still, they are living better than most guys who have so called jobs that you make 18000 naira every month. Why you guys struggle to live 60 years in Naija...people here can live up to 100 years. So we make the mistake of thinking about money...money and money in Naija but do not care about the quality of live. How time do you guys undertake regular doctor visit in a year...you only see a doctor when malaria and typhoid don't kill you finish. How many of you have a regular dental visit every year...Do you know the risk you run by not figuring your dental health....the list goes on and on...that i won't want to go on to shed the miserable life that you guys are living in Naija and are proud of it. so don't just think about the money we are making here but think about the underlying benefits of living here. No matter how bad...the truth is still...we are better off here than in Nigeria. That is why many of them go juju way after years of frustrations. They get visa to OKIJA SHRINE and spend their money at clubs and girls later die at 35 year old. What a slavery life. One Guy in anambra even put the juju shrine in his bedroom and makes serious money but the repercussion may be unfathomable. |

Re: USA Minimum Wage Vs Nigeria Minimum Wage. by Godogwu: 3:44pm On Sep 17, 2013 |
debbleopto: Yes, yes i enjoy pumping my own water and generating my own electricity until the government fixes all that. Come to think of it, i'll still prefer to pump my own water and not pay ridiculous water bills to the government. I can run my Generator for 30-40mins (thats if there's no power at that point) and have water for 2-3 days so what the heck?...i'm good. I don't care if a thousand rich men go to india for treatment, thats totally their business. Nigeria is still developing and we'll definitely come to a point where the need to travel abroad for treatment would be obscure. I really don't get what you're point, should we all leave Nigeria because its not as developed as the first world countries? |

It is that poverty mentality and reasoning that "it is better on the other side" . Till you get to the other side and realize you were way better off in your country. You make about $10-$12 /hour which is Admin http://www.forbes.com/sites/larissafaw/2012/02/01/college-degree-10-hour-job/ [size=15pt]FACT: the JANITOR in my school is from Cameroon. In Cameroon he was (I saw his certificate, etc) a top marine worker and earned ENOUGH TO OWN A HOUSE and lived "large" ..of course like most Africans, he played the lottery got a VISA and QUIT ALL HE HAD because he thought he would come to America and make more. MIND YOU HE CAME WITH An ALREADY ESTABLISHED VISA - SECURE PAPERS EVERYTHING LEGAL GUARANTEED......YET he is the janitor aka dustbin guy (not the "chief" dustbin guy, not even a senior one) in my school and GUESS who else works there : mexicans etc (foreigners). And the americans (about 2 of them) who work with him pile up all the work on him. America is GOOD to come to IF you ALREADY HAVE A JOB WAITING FOR YOU, else Visit and GO BACK TO WHAT YOU HAVE.

Aboki gateman is not an illegal alien in Naija.Illegal Mexican lawn mowers don't make that low wage in the US. Tell me how much Nigerien beggars in Naija make? |

You read my sgnature and want to use it in a sentence? Nice. FYI beggar in nigeria is NOT equal to lawn mower in America. There are street beggars.. Ever heard of the word HOBO? Google it.
