Ibime: When I see people make this mistake of comparing earnings by converting a foreign currency to Naira I laugh. The exchange rate is not reflective of the comparative cost of living between Nigeria and that country. For example any guy can get a good hair cut for 1k in Abuja.Some can get a good haircut for N300.How much is a haircut in London. The rent in a high brow duplex in Maitama Abuja is on the average 3M.How much does it cost to rent a duplex in NY or London.Lets even say a flat. Electricity per kilowatts in Nigeria is one of the cheapest in the world.How much is electricity. I hope you get my drift.Someone earning over 1.5M per annum in Nigeria can live a fairly comfortable life in any of the Nigerian cities talk more of outskirts. ie 125k per month.Convert that with current exchange rate of N430=$1 is $3488. Someone earning that a year in any developed country is a welfare case. So why the comparison.There is no basis for using that indices to compare cos the realities are totally different. 3 Likes |

Bonjovi13: Good point about purchasing power. Just building on the previous posters comparison. Although the trade off for this higher purchasing power in Nigeria is peace of mind that comes from security, adequate healthcare systems, and the knowledge that you have embedded your kids within a buoyant economy and given them every chance to build on your achievements. |

TallNigerian: Bro naija is too unpredictable and besides that, don't deny your future kids this great opportunity to become a citizen of a better country. If you don't want it for yourself, at least do it for them and they will be grateful to you |

datola:That's the fact that we all dont want to accept, out of all those saying leave leave, some have never tried a little part of the application process to even know how feasible and easy/ hard it is ... That canada thing na luck and if u get family there or u going student route. There is a truth that all of us can not leave Nigeria but in this guys case, he got 4 siblings there...certainly he has 80% chance of being successful at it and with the qualifications dt could boost his points.......As long as that is where God and his destiny wants him to be..its going to be a smooth journey. I wish the OP the best. Dont resign as someone suggested. As a Nigerian youth, there was a time I was hopeful for Nigeria but all hope is lost...all my efforts to try d canada thing na ish...been in d pool now with our low scores, tried a provincial application. With the rate of high scores in d pool now, no chance. Even have an uncle there that my mum contacted, d part where when u have a relative, hes been there for 10 to 12yrs.. he said he never have status to help....he can't help.....Life... I will try and make the best for myself for now. God has got my Future....its all gonna end well.... Canada it is..... 1 Like |

rs172: Hey,don't try to insult people, I'm just trying to tell you the reality of life in U.S. Nobody gave me anything in U.S. i worked very hard for it and i believe if i didn't travel to U.S. i will still make it Nigeria. You probably will not understand where I'm coming from but with time you will appreciate my fatherly advice. |

DexterousOne: You don't seem to understand what I'm talking about. The system is rigged to favour the white Americans. All these my colleagues that die poor, these people worked very hard in their life time. Try to talk to some Nigerians that have lived in U.S. for 20years and above they will tell you the same thing. |

rs172: You asked why i didn't stay in Nigeria? I was ignorant like you at the time and don't have anybody to advise then. Dangote registered his business 2years after i left Nigeria. He never left Nigeria and so many others. Nobody will give you anything in America and I'm not trashing America just telling the structure that was set up over there. And it's a slavery system and i repeat it's a slavery system. 1 Like |

jojoseph: You should have stayed in Nigeria and work hard, you probably gave birth to your kids in America, why can't you give to them in Nigeria, or do you think we don't work hard in Nigeria, you went to a country that gave you a platform to make money and advance in your career, you are here telling young men who have no career, underpaid, right grossly abused in Nigeria, not to move to a better country when the opportunity come, but you moved while you got the opportunity.

jojoseph: When Dangote registered his business, why can't you come back to Nigeria and follow his footstep, oh sorry you couldn't come back because you were in America working hard to make money, you forgot that Dangote's father was then the richest man in Africa, you forgot Dangote's uncle borrowed him 50,000 naira which is like 500,000,000 naira in today's economy, you forgot that he had back up, in Nigeria how many people enjoy 24/7 electricity and water, good roads, quality road and education, effective health care, but you come here to open your wide mouth to thrash a country that gave you the opportunity to advance your career..

jojoseph: No need for that Many of them do not understand the concept of finance and teamwork, hence them ending in such way. America is a country that even an idiot who came in at the age of 25 can pay $120 in an index fund per month (opening a ROTH IRA helps too) and retire a millionaire in his 60s, passing that money to his descendants as a head start. But many Nigerians (blacks) dont know how finance works From our spending habits you can tell |
