Well, I left home at 30. In as much as it's a nice decision moving out of your parent's house, don't be in a rush! Don't leave when you can't! Don't do that when you don't have something doing... The economy is very hard and bad, things are very costly. Make thinking no kill you before your time ooo 5 Likes |

Way back people open their doors to one another, sharing and exchanging ideas and resources towards collective prosperity. People move from villages to live with relatives so that they too can succeed.People stretched limited resource towards getting kinsmen educated or financially better through trade support.Hunger wasn’t so spelt out and this visible because your neighbors will call you to come and eat! There is crazy hunger in the land and level of unemployment is crazy.Men who don’t have money will not marry, anyone without the link to progress in education or make better career decision will look behind and hopeless. Why does it look and feel like some are behind in our world of today.It is simply because we have forgotten how collective prosperity got us there!!! We no longer open our doors to support each other,our walls use to be low but now higher than the building it’s self,we are always looking for means to defraud and scam each other rather than help each other.Other people cannot correct our children in our absence, families now avoid one another because they don’t want to help,it is now me and my family only. We are now backward as humans and as a people and need to re-trace our footing towards a path that helped us all..the helpful path of collective prosperity!! On a lighter mood****if you have husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend you are not using share with or gift someone who is in need oo,if you have spare shoes,clothes please decongest that wardrobe and share,if you have food items in excess kindly ask your neighbor if they need…Buhari time is not a joke ooo 7 Likes 2 Shares |

You are not a failure sir. Your job is what you are paid to do while your work is what you are born to do. This is the best time to discover what you are born to do, practice and practice then serve it to humanity with diligence, sincererity and packaging. A job is not a metric to measure success, however, a very good job can be used. So if you are more interested in job thank work, sharpen your skills now, since you got some free time,then apply to companies. Most importantly commit their ways to the Lord and surely you will prosper. 2 Likes |

Tbh, I can't relate but based on many personal observations the crucial thing is LEARN NEW THINGS!? I know your personal finances are likely zero but do small hustles- get hired as an Uber driver, find a rural plot of land and farm. I know in Naij this isn't an option but an acquaintance in your situation went this route a decade ago. He started off with 6 cows IIRC and grew them to 40 in 5 years leveraging the biz into a milk ATM partnership and never looked back. Last I heard he's now a major player in real estate in Ruiru town some 40 km NE of Nairobi. I realise you guys generally don't farm but it NEED not be dairy- what do Lagosians need? Sweet potatoes, chicken, eggs, greens? Identify the need and start at the bottom. 3 Likes 1 Share |

I was in this condition between 2009 and 2011, I didn't give up, though not yet where I want to be but I am moving and things are getting better. I was almost giving up in 2010 but somehow my believe in God rescued me and I am what I am by the grace of God. Never give up even if you contemplate it. 3 Likes |

You are not a failure my dear friend. The fact that you are conscious of how things should be with you is one great achievement. Not everyone can do such self assessment or evaluation. Don't go out of your way to do the wrong thing. Your time shall come; and sooner than you expect. Peace! 3 Likes |

Unik3030: Of course. I am sure you are a loser too. Keep looking for someone to sugarcoat it for you and don’t go and make something for yourself. Keep giving excuses on why you can’t afford to leave and don’t go and carry cement to save money. |

donofdons:. Someone who has a means of leaving the country won't be posting how he is a failure at 27. The OP only came here to motivate people although there are so many youth in that category in this present day Nigeria and Sad to say the least, it can only get worse with the way things are going. I will just advice anyone in such situation to talk to same parents feeding them and ask for little fund which they can use to learn some digital skills both offline and online. Then they can find small Neighboring country to start a freelance life. The rest of your comment makes sense even though hash. . |

Jessepaid:"Everything falls in place eventually" OP that is the line! Not long ago I had nothing and had no hope, steady looking out for handouts from anyone willing to give. But today I have a job even if it's not something big, I'm contented with the progress I've made so far and I'm obviously an happier man than I was yesterday, By the grace of GOD it will keep getting better. The thing is you just keep moving, if you can't fly, you walk, if you can't walk you crawl. Avoid stagnation by any means. Nothing is wrong being in your fathers house at 27, as long as you know you are doing your best to move forward in life, just keep pushing and stay optimistic things will definitely fall in place eventually. 1 Like |
