If you have the means to travel abroad for higher education, I will advice you do so.
Your siblings and mum will be alright. They will find a way to survive with or without you.
You will find a good job after your education and make life better for them in the end.

Impressive reasoning, young man. There is no method or diagram.

Please for all it takes, invest all the money you gat to school abroad. I mean a European country, not Ghana or other African countries. I mean, if you get the money, go Germany and study anything IT eg computer science, data science, information technology. While doing any of this, take your time to learn web development, graphics design, database development, machine learning or data science. You can get books to read while you code them out or attend boot camp. The later might be expensive but YouTube and Udemy are there but requires more than enough time and dedication. These will help u get a good internship where u can get experience on application of what you have learnt. When u are comfortable with the skills, if you like come Nigeria or stay abroad, all on you. Believe me, na job go dey find you. Not just jobs, jobs with over $24,000 per annum.
Please, invest in education. Not just education but quality education. Thanks.
My two cents.
Meanwhile God of boys dey give $40k when China woman drop slip

Thank you. Don’t let anybody discourage you. Go abroad if you get the money. Continue your barbing while schooling.
Re: Setting Up A Barbershop Or Going To School Abroad by Sammerboi: 7:33pm On Nov 12, 2021
For me just travel abroad if you’ve the chance to go. Coz Barbers are well paid over there.

Follow what your mind says.
Re: Setting Up A Barbershop Or Going To School Abroad by Cousin9999: 9:01pm On Nov 12, 2021
You already have a valuable trade. No matter where you go, you can earn. Considering your trade, if you went abroad on a uni visa, and did more barber training on the side (more versatility in styling for African clients, and training for other hair types) and got more experience in it, you could do well for yourself abroad. Going abroad to study business would be a good idea. If nothing else, you have good training to establish yourself back home.

grin I don’t know why I find this funny
To answer your question
1. Do you have a strong financial background or a sponsor ?
2. Are very intelligent ? Then you can go through the scholarship route

But if you intend to move to the abroad with a tourist visa grin grin it’s better imagined than experienced

dis the only reasonable advice i've cum across

Go abroad and start a barbing saloon business.

You will make it there my friend....

Got a friend he cuts hair in northern part of england.... Charges 10-15 pounds depending on the type of cut.

Mostly all black students and resident patronize him.

That baber skill you got is a serious one...

No matter the responsibilities in your family, you have to plan especially for yourself without your siblings demands weighing you down

Going to abroad is good, only if you will be lucky to get a genuine visa and someone to accommodate you

As for your siblings, after secondary school, let then get something doing and save towards their own education

If you trained then to university you may not be able to train yourself to university and one day you will realise that you are not a graduate

So establish yourself, get educated and help them get educated too

What country do you have in mind?
You can apply for scholarships in a foreign university, then combine your academics with hustle. That's if you can strike a balance
Poland or canada
