Can you take a job of 50k as a BSc holder? most people will say yes and I don't blame them at all, I have worked as a manager of a guest house for four months and I was paid 27k in a month, the job title sure sounds like a big deal to some people when you say "I am the manager" they wouldn't know your two-month salary can't even afford iPhone 6.

The truth of the matter is Nigeria reward for labour is too cheap and that's why most people bring their businesses over here, pay us 350 euros in a month and we think it's big lol, but at least they pay well compared to Nigerians themself.


I find it difficult to understand why some of these food vendors are looking for someone with ND and some small businesses that pay 50k look for people with BSc, its insane, they will even use the hell out of you. Now I'm recruiting and managing for them and they never asked me for even an application letter and I make more than 100k a month, there are a lot of jobs like this, to be honest,

Nigeria is a place where you just have to find your way I guess because that's what most people with a good income are doing, most of them take contracts from people abroad. have you heard about Fiverr? I know of someone who makes roughly 1k dollars a month from just designing a website with WordPress on Fiverr.


Don't let anybody tell you there is no job so you have to settle for less, as for me I won't use my cert to apply for a 30k job again, laye!
Question should be, Can u run a business that can make nothing less than 50k a month?

Learning one or two IT skills is the way to go, and always think outside the box in this globalized world.

The truth is some of you high up there don't know what some people down the bottom do to survive each day. It's not about how educated you are or your work experience or the school you went to or your size of connection. It is not about any of those. I know of a first class graduate who sells marijuana and cannabis just to make small change and survive. It's just life. Everybody cannot be up there at the same time. Some people go there first and others get there later. I heard of a graduate lady with a strong 2:1 who ventured into frying akara for three years with her mum after graduation because there was no job forthcoming. Today she's working in switzerland with World bank. It is turn by turn. That's how life is. It is what it is. My friend's grandfather told me something. He said "In this circle of interest called life, what will be will eventually be. That is it!

The country is crazy..you won’t even blame anyone who does...the only things is try to have plans cause jobs like these tend to limit people from harnessing their potentials...with 20k,you can start a whatsapp marketing side hustle to complement ur 9-5...The hours you spend on whatsapp could generate a stable source of income for anyone who knows their onions...click the link in my signature or rather shoot me a mail Asap!

By your logic, once you made a couple of bucks, you relax.

You definitely have comprehension issues if you deduced the above from my post.

Come to think of it, the reverse is actually the case. You can't sustain a business by spamming, whilst you can do so by doing the right thing which is my advice to you in my post.

Do actual digital marketing and sustain your biz for a long time, spamming won't do that.

Funtep:

That is why ppl like you never make it big

You can only get to my level in your dreams...

Funtep:

I may stop making money today and I already have enough to last me a decade.

And you can't even spend less than 30k a week for ads but rather spend so much time and energy creating nairaland accounts and spamming day and night? Are you high

Funtep:

And by the way I am a programmer with 6yrs experience and I have helped lots of people.

Heyyy... Stop it! Don't give that honourable profession a bad name. Programmer my foot.
A programmer in spamming language? Which programmer spends 20 out of 24 hrs everyday spamming? Keep the answer to yourself.

Which time do you have to write codes when you're busy creating accounts and spamming every thread From the handles, you ain't even using a bot.

Sit down there and be deceiving yourself.

Funtep:

I created my first blog in 2007 shortly after Nairaland started but quitted when I gained admission. After my Nysc in 2015, I resumed

Good. After 14 years, see where nairaland has gotten and your blog that was created same time can't stand the test of time. You know why, because you didn't apply professionalism to your blog, and you're still making same mistake today.

Funtep:

Let me tell you, I bought my first car off blogging on 9th May, 2018

Congratulations... Since your blog can buy you a car it means you've got good traffic... Then, why not advertise on your blog if you can't cough out 30k a week for NL, FB, or Google Ads. You still need to read books and understand how to run business.

Funtep:

I don't sell what I don't believe in
Believing in it is by using it and not by mouth. Is spamming part of Digital marketing?

Funtep:

No thanks... I don't need to see anything including your spamming ads on every thread.
