During my nysc despite 19800 I Managed to save over 100k but somebody earning 30k doesn't gave 50k to his name after nysc

I saved over 100k as well, my roomie I trusted empty my account and disappeared. Same state I payed over 60k to redeploy to. NYSC was a waste to me.

Many people see NYSC as an opportunity to save money for the challenges ahead. I believe this isn't the best mindset to carry into NYSC.

I advise you to see NYSC as a great opportunity to learn, gather experience and make connections if you truly have a plan for your life.

You can 'work' yourself into a public school for your primary assignment (PPA), work for two or three days a week and use your free time to learn skills like graphic design, programming, data science, fashion designing, project management etc.

You also get to meet bright minds from other schools. They may be poor today but only God knows what tomorrow holds. Besides that, you get to share ideas that can open your mind to opportunities and trigger your innovation and creativity. So, NYSC is a great avenue for healthy and useful socialization.

Finally, the allawee is enough to live a reasonable life (at least for your one year service). You can offer to work for free in a private company. In the real sense it isn't free because you're gathering experience and building a portfolio. For example, you may offer to work in a private university in exchange for no monthly stipends. At least after your NYSC, you can boast in your CV that you have lecturing experience.

Finally, if you love yourself and have plans for your future, please avoid private secondary schools. Don't be enticed with their 5,000-10,000 monthly stipend.

Firstly, that 10k will not improve your welfare reasonably. Also, there's little or no useful experience to acquire in a private secondary school. Finally, they'll consume every calorie in your body and second of your time. You won't have time for any personal development.

I wish I had someone to tell me this during my service year. I hope this will help someone.

In conclusion.
Please don't see NYSC as a money-making scheme. The 400k per year can't take you anywhere. However, it can help you think worry less about hunger and focus on self-development for a year.
...and year is enough to learn whatever you want to learn.

I hope this helps someone.
Thanks op

Everyone needs some dose of motivation to proceed through life.

Success comes by pushing against every known and unknown odds/challenges.

All you've done is to give excuses not to progress.

Quit excusing failures and move against challenges.

while I commend the op write up, stop sounding like a motivational speaker.

you have no idea how it is to be posted to a remote area where you hustle for ordinary water to bath and half the time, there is no electricity to charge your phone.

na for Niger Delta boys village you go dey carry system go dey charge?


if you stay in a city where you can actually enhance those skills, fine. otherwise, this is wishful thinking.

It should boost your CV. If you work your way there and relate well with everyone. Ensure you get yourself in the good books of senior officers there; you will get good references. Serving with them will also expose you to their ways of doing thing that could prepare you before hand. Depending on your course of study, if you read a professional course and your area of study is needed your display of efficiency, effectiveness and readiness to learn may also favour.

The most important thing is that have set your goal. Work towards it, have faith and believe in God that it is possible except if he has a better option for you.

Thanks xoxo much bro for the Advice

but I did not study a professional course Infact my course might be termed worthless in this part of our world but it's lucrative in countries like Australia, US that got regards for Wildlife n it's resources
