You no get money you dey maintain girlfriend. Its like you no get clear focus.
- Where did you see the money to obtain passport?
- Where you get money to buy smartphone and data?

From you post you appear to be very lazy. Nepotism is only a way of giving a convinent excuse.

Have you invested in any relevant IT certification or you prefer people decieving you by calling you "engineer".
Berra drop that your girlfriend and spend more money on upgrading your professional standing.

That was how I started my career. With ₦360k per year paying job to ₦3.9m. Currently I have moved up in the ladder of success and now earn a comfortable ₦22m per year. This was done in a span of 12yrs of focused and hard work. All done in Naija and I no no anyone. No nepotism.

The grass is only greener where you water it.

Be prepared to take advantage of every opportunity you see.

From you post you sound like you are lazy as fvck in Naija and you want to go abroad to do the work that are more demanding than what you experienced in Naija.
The money you make there will still be collected back by the same government there through housing and utilities. You think they like you?
Berra get proper advice before you enter one chance

This is my advice to you

I didnt even want to add the tax. If I was abroad, the tax I will have paid alone will have crippled my finance

I thought they usually make enough to pay taxes and still live a comfortable life

In America, many people are not making enough to live comfortably. If Americans didn't have access to credit cards, I really don't know how many will survive honestly.

Great thread OP!

I don't think you get my point here. What I meant is, the same amount I make in Nigeria is the same amount I will make if I was anywhere in the word. Let's say I make 10dollars monthly in Nigeria, I will make same 10 dollars anywhere I am. The difference is that in Nigeria I don't have to pay tax. I am talking for myself , not for everyone. Different people will have different experiences

Do whatever works for you, though a good number of Nigerians will japa if given the opportunity.

This is exactly why you are having difficulties with improvement. You can't event take any criticism and use it positively for your own good.

Shame

Wow.. That's shocking! Yet, a lot of Nigerians are eager to move to America

On another note, if you don't mind sharing, what do you do? How are you able to earn the same in Nigeria? I'm assuming you're doing a job online and getting clients from abroad?

Yes, we do. It’s not hard to live a comfortable life And millions of Americans survive without credit cards.

Thanks for letting me know

But, what about healthcare? It seems to be a major concern in the US. Some even decide to migrate to Europe because of it

Not true. Millions depend on CC to survive.
The Federal Reserves states nearly 200 million have credit cards. Of that number about one third are in CC debt. Millions are struggling financially and inflation is at an all time peak.

Migrating to Europe? And how/under which grounds exactly are they gaining European citizenship (which takes time), a requirement for healthcare qualification? This puzzles me, especially when some European citizens, those covered by NHS for example, complain of extended time to see a physician.

I wonder. But what's your experience with healthcare in America? Do people really go bankrupt for staying at hospitals?

No they don’t. Most of the uninsured get retroactive Medicaid which covers the bills.
I have no complaints about the healthcare here. I have private insurance and it costs me less than $20 to see any doctor I need and my hospital stays, even for surgery, cost less than $250 after insurance.

Wow. I guess it's not bad at all. Thanks for the info

[quote author=engrchykae post=109980366] Nigeria is a gathering of useless self destruct blacks.
Gej had what it takes to move Nigeria forward but foolish hausas and yorubas are more interested in hating igbos.

The light of igbos are not only the light of Africa
Others are the light of Africa's too
That is why Africa's are not growing at all because any little success they make you see them belittling down their brothers and sisters
They make their people don't grow to their level at the same time the weak they belittle down will make sure they do everythings even if it involve witchcraft for that their brother to fall
GOD HATE A PROUD HATE
Be warm!
