TrueNigerian300: LOL... seems your circle is made up of struggling immigrants who live in council houses and claim benefits therefore please always put a disclaimer on your write-ups to let people know you are speaking based on your limited experience with the kind of unambitious friends you keep abroad. Please realise that you and your kind are in the minority.. Forward thinking, well educated Nigerians I know here in the UK have left toxic communities such as Peckham, Woolwich etc.. moved to other parts of the country and are doing exceptionally well in thriving careers. There's no excuse for those who choose to rot in poverty abroad when there are numerous opportunities available to you (of course with the exception of those who haven't attained papers). 12 Likes |

sweetmelanin: It is not about circle of struggling immigrant it is about reality I have people doing well for themselves and i dont think i know anybody that is living on government support as far as I can tell. Read my post well and dont be emotional about it. Just so you know I work in one of the 3 largest tech companies in the world. So I have seen Nigerians living large here and i have seen people struggling as well. With available data that over 40% of americans cant cover $400 emergency expense in your delusion those americans are all lazy. The guy we are talking about here is not a struggling guy he is living better than most Nigerians abroad. At the bolded why are you deceiving yourself Let start from salary what is the average in your so called UK? How much money do you make with all your mouth?? Can you show the guy if not us your salary and your apartment to tell him how large you live in the UK. How many of you in the UK earn 50,000 pounds p.a You can argue all you want this guy lives a better life than most Nigerians in the UK. Your type are people who the only thing they know back home in Nigeria is poverty you can dispute my claim with your payslip back home in Nigeria. . You are advising someone that lives as a freeborn in Nigeria and in a nice apartment to come and join you in your cubicle in the UK. SMH!!! My friends are all doing well trash you are talking about how many make 50k pounds p.a How many Nigerians do you know and have you met in the UK with all your noise? You guys will never tell Nigerians all the shit you passed through and are passing through everyday you only sweetmouth for them in your illusion of living abroad. 15 Likes 3 Shares |

Kenn55: Will you keep quiet in your cubicles there Most of you are deluded and can't comprehend simple thing the guy in question said he wants money he didnt mention sanity or good health care. And the next thing you all preach to tell him is to move abroad. Even the not too wise Nigerians i have met all agreed that making money in Nigeria is easier than in developed countries. I dont care about anybody's wealth i only buttressed my point by mentioning their name to a deluded fellow like you. And she started with the name first. 6 Likes 1 Share |

boyo123: Very wise observation I laugh at them too honestly. You can give your kids better future if you are rich in Nigeria and all you need to do is to send them to good schools abroad. Some rich family send their kids to school abroad from primary to university and they come to back to Nigeria to be directors and managers. Who will make your black kid director in a company abroad immediately after graduation?? Even black americans still struggle to get to the top of the corporate lader. All i see with all those kinds of people is low self esteem they believe so much in the whiteman's country that they hate themselves and their country. Fine, Nigeria is hell fire if you are poor every wise person knows this but that does not mean people are not living good life in Nigeria as opposed to what our abroad advocate wants us to believe. 12 Likes |

The OP already has a wrong mindset about moving. It's hard to give an advice based on his reason i.e. to make more money. What will now happen if you do not make more money than you currently make in Nigeria? Abroad levels people. They try as much as possible to create an equal society. A right balance between capitalism and socialism. - What Canada can guarantee you: Okay/high standard of living. - What Canada can't guarantee you: More money. Canada can't even guarantee if you would make more than minimum wage in your first 3 years in the country. 14 Likes |

deleSayo:No i am poverty stricken my Oga I am not just obsessed with abroad and I am a stronger believer that you are better off in your country if you are rich and Nigeria is not an exemption. I have the opportunity to go the US in my final year as one of the best student in my class for exchange program and I did not take it serious.

salford1: Very wise input this is kind of advice the guy needs but our abroad advocate started sweet-mouthing how everywhere is gold and honey. I am yet to see anybody that dispute this assertion - that it is easier to make money in Nigeria than in abroad. And funny enough none of them said what he will do or how he will make the money when he get to the almighty Canada of gold and honey. The business he can do there nobody said anything about that only come come come gold and honey are flowing everywhere you go 6 Likes |

What kind of person makes 800k a month and even here on nairaland seeking travel advise... 800k in any country is a baller income giving how tough things are economically across the globe.

TrueNigerian300:Having lived in Canada for a while and now a citizen. Worked survival jobs and professional jobs. I atleast know what happens around here. Interestingly, These types of questions are common on Quora where I am also active. People earning descent income in their countries trying to make a move to Canada. Some eventually do, and they arrive with big expectations. When some of these new arrivals with big expectations can't land an ordinary $15 per hour job within one year of landing, they start cursing and swearing at the Canadian government. Bitter about losing the career/money they left back in their home country. Some even ask how to go about sueing the government believing they have been duped by the hype. Then, you now start wondering where Canada ever promised them a job at a level equal to the job they had in their home country. It's just wrong to base immigration decisions on potential earnings or income. 7 Likes |

salford1:People on the thread keep on talking about businesses but is Nigeria the only country in the world to be an entrepreneur? Is it illegal for immigrants to become entrepreneurs in Canada. I see a lot of successful indian businesses in the west. Why do Nigerians believe a Nigerian can only be successful in business in Nigeria. 5 Likes |

Re: 800k A Month: Should I Travel To Canada? by salford1: 12:17am On May 26, 2020 |
tensazangetsu20:I do not believe that you can only be successful in Nigeria. You can be successful anywhere in the world if you have a great business idea. E.g. the owner of World remit was a refugee from Somalia that made it big in Britain. Irrespective of wherever you came from, there are many succesful and failed entrepreneurs/businesses in the west, just as there are in Nigeria. Heck, some refugees that came in from war torn Syria are making it big in their own businesses in Canada. 2 Likes |

salford1:Seriously it's so annoying hearing them saying there is money to be made in Nigeria. if you can succeed in doing business in Nigeria, you can literally succeed anywhere in the world. A friend of mine relocated to the states and started a part time E commerce business. Her first month she had over 20000 dollars in sales. She says doing business over there is so easy because people have so much money to spend. The same business here in Nigeria was generating peanuts. Business everywhere is difficult but there's more chance for business success in a country where there's infrastructure, rule of law and most importantly the populace who can afford to purchase your products and services. 9 Likes |

tensazangetsu20:I modified my answer above abit. See example of world remit. I agree, the ease of doing business overseas is great as long as you have a solid business plan and idea. Westerners have much disposable income than Africans plus they are not plagued with the issue of power supply. There are high speed internet connections available too. All these factors offer great quality of life. 7 Likes |

Scaredd:As per this thread before it's derailed, the bolded is high expectation. Such mindset is not the best when thinking of migrating to Canada or any western country. Another wrong mindset is from those that convert CAD to Naira and vice versa. However if OP migrates to Canada with an open mind, with enough dose of patience. Things might greatly work in his favour, or he might not even make anywhere close in equivalent to what he is earning in Nigeria, but Canada would definitely give a 2nd chance to live in a sane society. A society that offers descent living with high quality of life. Even the air we breathe here is less polluted and much cleaner lol. 3 Likes |

My Take: You have got a good job, with 800k monthly you are living large but Nigeria is a very unpredictable country.. anything can happen. My advise is this, for the sake of your unborn kids, secure a plan B now that you can. Your kids will forever be grateful to you! If you're looking to make more money... it's not assured but Comfort, peace, security, access to best health facilities, education etc. All this you will have |
