What is the percentage of Nigerians in Nigeria, that are qualified for car loan and a mortgage in Nigeria?

If it took you 35 yrs to own a house debt-free whilst still paying to the King, 5 yrs to own a car via monthly lay-aways only for the car to depreciate in value by 80% after one yr and become unsellable, then you'd understand that the slave is a borrower to the lender.

Need I mention the tax you'd pay as well as a home-owner? So you are forever paying the royals.

These are not things Nigerians see clearly whilst living in Nigeria. You'd only understand when you've lived or been there. Go to Tayo Aina's channel and view his recent visit to London where he interviews ppl with homes living in the UK. Should give you clarity into how deep it goes.

Car loan and a mortgage. If only they'd stop online bragging.

Dope. That hat would cost 5 pounds if it were in the UK.

Knit about 10. Put in a sealed transparent bag. Open an tiktok account. And sell each pack of 10 for 29.99.

And add as many followers as you can.

You'd be earning 66k per pack. And charging shipping according to location. You can use the DHL pay-later option where the parcel owner pays at the DHL location near them to pick up.

If you sell 10 packs, 660k. If you sell (at worst) 50 packs in a yr, that's 3.3m+ off your side hustle.

Colors: Pink, Sky Blue, Beige, Light Brown, Brown, Red, Cream etc.

You could also opt for 5 pack but price that at 14.99.

You are right.
Thanks for the insight.

Start with IT, you don't need to know code to start at beginner level and basic salaries in the following

1. Software/ Quality Assurance Tester
2. UX Designer/Product Designer

All you'd need is data. I'd send you private links later on where and how to get those courses for free. Then study them hard for 6 months to a yr. With your determination, you will be in tech before you know it. Either via freelance or on-site.

Plus with AutoCad you'd be a different level UI designer as long as you apply the C.R.A.P methodology to your UI designs.

And learn about torrents. That's a lifetime hack.

I made over 3.3m (in today's rate) on my first contract in 2013 . Billed as a company and delivered. And all I knew back then was Graphic Design and website development. And this project involved only Graphics. No web. The other skills used to finish the project involved writing articles and photography. I learned photography via video freelance projects and the articles, I wrote with my media experience.

With multiple skills, you are a walking business. So when you start thinking and operating like one, doors will open. And so would your confidence. And when the confidence is there and one contract is out the way, register your business.

You're smart so I reckon you will learn quickly and at your own pace

Hausa:
You're sounding like a FooooL.
He's telling you how he's managed to finish school and learnt a skill, and you're telling him to start with a change of mindset.

What a joke!
SMH.

I wouldn't blame your mother, she cursed the world with your birth. Learn to mind your business when two people are talking, child.

The mature fella understood the angle and replied respectfully. You on the other hand were not taught manners or communication skills by your parents whom have failed in parenting. So you come on here and assume everyone is around your age or btw.

Go find something worthwhile to do with your time. I've got a business to run.

Smithcole70:
I understand that sampling from a single case isn't representative, and intentions vary. As a fresh graduate from the University of Lagos (UNILAG), I was exempted from NYSC due to age. Despite self-funding my education, age has become a significant barrier in my job search. Many establishments, both private and public, prioritize age and years of experience as key requirements.

To enhance my employability, I've developed skills in Microsoft Suite and AutoCAD, complementing my course of study. I'm urgently seeking job opportunities or willing to learn a trade with incentives to support myself.

If I come across someone posting a giveaway opportunity, I'll definitely reach out because I genuinely need it because it would go a long way.

Start with a change of mindset. Most grads and undergrads in Nigeria have been brainwashed with the idea that a certificate automatically equals a better life than the one you've got or an opportunity/ opening door to a successful career.

Think about it, how many ppl have the same certificate as you. You are up against over 15 million ppl so the ratio of success is slimmer when compared to entrepreneurs.

You spend 10 yrs moving up the ladder or trying to, at a firm or business. By the 10th yr, the entrepreneur has established over 100 contacts and processed over 100 transactions (all beneficial to his network, net worth, bank account and family). The worker on the other hand gets a promotion and a pay rise of less than 5%. Get the picture?

Acquire a skill. A skill that is not easily learned or one isn't as common. This is what will set you aside to make money from each one.

All the info you need to do that is available online and it all takes time. Most ppl want help and quick doe but they won't put in the work. They want it quick.

So have a 1 yr plan to achieve a skill or a set of skills to make money with. On your way up, someone will always notice your gift and invest or demand for your services.

Instead of investing in Nigerians every week, set aside some money and invest in a project that helps bring children out of their dire drastic environments and projects that make them strive for a better future.

Invest in their skills or create avenues for them to use their brains to lift themselves out of poverty or harsh living situations. I've been doing this for years and it creates better individuals.

Most Nigerians only think about now, when it comes to money. So when you give them money, they tend to squander it stupidly.

I once invested in someone that wanted to come out of a very bad ghetto, via opening a music studio. He was a super producer so I gave him a Macintosh to see what he'd do with it and told him if he could use that in anyway to begin the studio then I'd invest in the equipment. Sadly, he sold it, blew the money and the studio never came to fruition. And this was because he valued the money more than his future

Now I invest in kids with a drive to succeed and a determination to be successful. And its paid off.

Except you seek funding, its a very tough space to last in. The corruption at the CBN is so deeply exhausting that you'd keep paying annually to stay afloat as it is a very crowded space and very rife with corruption.

I'd rather use 50m to set up a startup that is personally funded and solves a niche problem. Then when you have paperwork to show that the business is making tons of money, investors would fight over you.

Watched a lot of people fold up in the finance space. For you to succeed, you must have major backing. Someone who is not scared of failure.

Never believe all you see on the internet. The Nigerian tech space is a fascade compared to what really goes backdoors. A lot of foreign investors dont trip in becos they are highly successful. They trip in becos they launder way more and way easier than they'd ever do in the western world. As regulations are not as strict and you can get away with anything in Nigeria.

I have created this post to start an initiative of offering assistance to individuals who are unknown to me. Every week, I aim to send 10,000 Naira to a Nigerian stranger(I will pick an account number at random if there is more than one), as I understand the challenging situation in Nigeria. This small gesture is my way of giving back to my country, even though I am currently living abroad. I have the means to consistently afford this amount, even when facing unpaid bills, as it is less than £10.

I hope to extend a helping hand to those in need back home. I find fulfillment in anonymous giving, acts that only God recognizes and rewards.

Through this platform, I wish to continue being a blessing, in my own small way, to any Nigerian in need, regardless of tribe, language, or religion. I am not seeking any personal information from anyone, nor do I want this page to be a platform for scams. Only post an account number or send your account number as a DM. Once you receive the alert, come back here to mention the alert received so I am sure you have the funds.

My desire is to offer genuine help and support to fellow Nigerians, spreading a spirit of compassion and unity. Together, we can make a difference and alleviate the burdens faced by those less fortunate in our beloved country.

Let us come together and embrace the joy of giving without expecting anything in return. May we all find ways, no matter how small, to make a positive impact on the lives of others.

Howdy mate. Reach out to Delafé Ministries and support their outreach if you may.

They own the biggest video archive of Christ testimonies in the world. They are a US-based business.

Or donate to a cause that supports people changing their lives and the lives of others.

Just like that? People will never tell you the real source of their wealth. Too bad

Why is it in you guys' blood to hate? It's genetic problem. I already know where you are from.

Have you taken time to know his story? He has been grinding since his days out in Europe before returning.

So be inspired instead. Stop hating

Dope. Was this built on React?

Interested in half of it i.e. 25 plots.

Retirement calculator will tell you the year you will be retired from work and how many years remaining before you complete your 35 years of service. Plus years remaining to work after completing your 35 years of service & years remaining before you hit the official retirement age of 65..

It’s does the whole heavy work of calculating your work days and retirement year.

It’s very easy to use just feed it with your employment year and current employment year..

It’s has it own small bugs, can’t calculate people born in 1994 accurately..

Very good for workers and every body.

Built when I was a beginner in the art of coding..

let currentDate = new Date();
let currentYear = currentDate.getFullYear();
const askUser = function() {
let userResponse = prompt( "Enter your year of birth" )
let ansWer = currentYear - userResponse;
return ansWer;
/* 'console.log(ansWer)' could also work if you wanna log your response to the console to test
*/
}

..........

Just call the function "askUser()" and return the answer to wherever you want it to appear on your html page

ITS LOVELY that even with all your propaganda against IGBO land. Commercial activities are still on going.
IGBO passengers patronizing businesses.
I know you wanted to stereotype the event...but you failed.

Now..when are you capturing news about IBADAN Airport?

Below is IBADAN AIRPORT....

Why are GOATs and RAMs the passengers?..Even with all your IGR propaganda?

This thread is in response to some misguided people that are saying Bola Tinubu did not graduated from Chicago state and those asking for his class mates.

Below is the proof that he actually did Attended Chicago State University.

1. The photo Album for Chicago State University graduate of 1979

2. A video of one of Tinubu classmate "Tunde Badejo" stating that he attended Chicago State University with Tinubu

3. The photo of Tunde Badejo in the class of 1979 yearbook of Chicago State University

He attended but did not finish. He paid to have it forged. And the school has fired the person responsible hence why they do not wanna release his records as it puts them in serious problems with the state and the govt. They face huge fines, a reshuffle and a media backlash, a tremendous scandal. See for yourself:
