For me, crypto trading is no skill. The risk in crypto trading is higher than tailoring. Also considering the amount you have, crypto trading can send you at a loss immediately.
But tailoring is preferable, considering the large market surrounding it. You can create unique designs that are selleable.
But let me ask you this question, what is your passion?
You need passion to excel in what you do.
Wish you all the best.

Nice one bro, N100k is a good savings, but why not check out for lesser training schools or where you can even pay close to nothing by acting and assisting with all you've got. Offer your services to people and at the same time learn the basics. All you need is the basic then you use the N100k for equipment to start with.

We have a lot of free online training videos that you can watch after the daily basics you've learnt. You can download YouTube videos even in d midnight by subscribing with little amount of money to get more data. Sum these up with self training then you'll be better in no time.

Crypto is not an option please.
