You shouldn’t quit unless you have some other thing fetching you money already. Driving is not difficult. I learnt how to drive in a day. You can perfectly learn how to drive while still working.

You earn 85k per month, that is fair enough. I know some family men that earns 40k and they’re still living. How many children do you have? How do you spend your money?

You should spend according to what you earn. I do spend about 20k a month before when I was earning less, but now I spend over 50k a month as my earnings grew higher. You spend according to your earnings. Don’t see other neighbours spending so much on their children and try to be like them. You don’t know what they earn in a month.

Plan well and you will manage fine. Don’t take a car on hire purchase because it will be difficult for you to pay up the car. You will need to pay 2 times the worth of a car if you take it on hire purchase unless you see a really good person that wants to sell on hire purchase without doubling the amount for the car.

Also, ensure your wife is working to assist you. Only you can’t do it alone.

How can you be a family man with 85k as salary?

Your wife must be an angel. You better adore her!

The only time you should quit a job is when you have found a better offer. Make out time to learn driving, do not quit your job!


What nonsense are you even talking

so i want to advise you .. not just you but everyone .... You dont have to quit your job .. Continue your job .. and also look for a side hustle .. you can learn the driving .. does not take time to learn .. see how you can get a car to be driving on weekends or after you are done with work for the day and then weekends too ... every month when you receive your salary .. take either within 10 -20k ... put in bitcoin ... everymonth .. try to put 30% of your profit in bitcoin .. and also you can look into dividend stocks .. this is not about you being broke now , but about you building a solid future for yourself and your family .. so work wee not kee you las las and you can enjoy retirement ..

Good evenning all.

I have been having this thought of quitting my job to learn driving in order to pick up an UBER or BOLT job but the fear of getting a car on hire purchase is always coming as an hindrance.

I am a family man whose salary of just #85,000 is not even enough to cater for the family .Before the salary even comes in, there are always debts that have been incurred.

Most times,I dont even get up to #20,000 as a result of debts and seriously I am fed up. Infact , I think of suicide sometimes because i am so depressed right now. I have rent of #140,000 hanging on my neck too.

Please will it be wise to quit to learn driving for purpose of commercial driving job?

I don't want to reply you before because your respond is senseless to me.

but like I advice before, go and sit your wife and take pen and jotter for writing

go and do your budget expenses, there are a lot of private schools teachers with family, I mean children not kid that are surviving with 30k added with their wife contributions.

how did you want to have peace self if you are paying wife's allawee with that salary
Na you dey talk senseless for saying some men are comfortable with a salary of #30k.#1k daily.Stop being a motivational speaker and come to reality of life.

85k and you are thinking of quitting your job. You sound like someone who is living above his means. Cut down unnecessary expenses and start saving money for a car to the Uber thing as a side hustle. Don't quit your job if not you might live to regret it.

I probably have one of the most beautiful feet you will ever see. Unlike the females in your life, I am actually very clean.

The hate you feel for a total stranger will destroy you one day. I am still beautiful and happy smiley

This my advice might be harsh but that's a big truth ....don't marry if you are not financially independent ....you will suffer until suffer Taya you. It is better to remain single without kids .....than to have a family you can't Carter for .

If VIO/FRSC impound your vehicle, you'll be more depressed than this.

What has happened has happened. Let's look at what can be done moving forward

Delete your FB, Instagram and Twitter immediately. Also stop viewing WhatsApp status,e get why

Swallow any EGO or any sense of reputation you have.
Start looking for face me i face you to rent. In some places in Lagos ,u can get as cheap as 5k monthly. Move your children to a good public school.

If you can't handle this part, move to another area (and do it) so you won't think about' what people will say'.
Also moving to another area will be good for your mental health.

Don't date/marry a woman you can't afford. If she doesn't have work, she can learn to fry donots/pastries or bake within 1-3 months.
She can start up in front of your house immediately she learns.

Just focus and change your mindset.

You'll be out of the mess in 1 or 2 years. Then you can do your uber and even do bigger things
Re: Do I Need To Quit My Job ? by GeezBitz(m): 10:07am On Apr 02, 2021
is your job so demanding that you can't work and learn to drive at thesame time?
why not learn to drive and still maintain ur job for the mean time, if possible after learning to drive, start a night hustle in the transportation and study how lucrative it can be before u quit.
u can have ur job and still hustle, depending on the type of job u are currently in.
best of luck, may God bless your hustles.

Quit, but know that the road of business is hard.

Before the business pays off, you will go through a cash crunch, unless you have savings already. That's something you should think about.

The good news about business is that depending on what you're doing, you can get that 85k in a week or less.
85k per week with which capital?

That's the thing about business, it's not a promise that you will get that every week, but there is there capacity to get that every week. No job will give you such possibility of exponential growth.

There are businesses that give that and even double that. And some don't need any mind-blowing capital.

Nice feet. Do you cover them up much? Because mine burn on exposure to sunlight, like I feel them on fire.
