Highorbit7O16: I didn't saved all 2m from the 120k job. In fact my savings from it is about 500k only. The 50k monthly side hustle helped, and I did alot of other hustle too. 1 Like |

First, I must applaud you for saving upto 2M in a time like this. You're 30 years right? You've got a job and a passion. Your job is paying you well when compared to what an average employee in Nigeria is earning. I'll recommend you thank God for life, job, business IQ, first. Cos many people older than you just need around 1/10 of what you have now to dey alright. I know you're not where you ought to be but I think it's harsh for you to call yourself unfulfilled. Do you even know ow what unfulfilled means? You don't even wanna know. Not to discourage you but still focus on your work until you plan your business properly. The country is somehow now and sometimes adequate preparation aren't enough. I believe light thrives most when darkness abounds. Look for the opportunities in this harsh economy and create a concrete plan. I'm sure your needs will be met in due time. Shalom. |

You cannot have an ideal situation all the time. Show me a boss that is not bossy. Show me a workplace without its own toxicity. Omo, na to dey endure till you have a clearer pix of what next. If you quit because you are angry, o boy, hunger dey o. That 2milla wet u dey call small, some ogas never see am before at once self. Calm down small. |

This one dey look for cruise.....abeg u wan make guys start dey toast u nah ote author=Betterprospect post=111023103]Good day Nairalander. I'm single, 30 years old. I studied agriculture related course at University level, and I presently worked in that field and I earned about 120k monthly. I feel unfulfilled and I'm lacking interest day after day. The unfulfillment brewed mostly from my bosses egoistic and narcissistic approach to his employee, the insane working hours, and the lack of liberty, and most importantly, I feel I could do better. Now I have a meagre 2 million naira saved up, small? I know. Buy I'd like to pursue my passion in tech albeit from ground zero. Now my dilemma is: 1. Seeing that I'm old and already past my prime for a career change at 30 yrs old, does a pursue of another career make sense? 2. Knowing that 2 million is small and would not last long. Does is it make sense to just up and leave? 3. I have a small biz I ideal which I feel could give me close to 50k monthly, but thing is, this is Nigeria and I might be wrong. 4. Should I just suck it up and continue for another year or two? Everyone I asked seems to think I should. P,S. I worked 12 hours a day and its impossible I merge the two together.[/quote] |

A real man goes for what he wants rather than hiding under a façade of "am a hustling but well to do guy" blah blah blah.....truly if am a girl eh,I will buy latest sharpest clipper I will cut ur hair even ur eye brow and eye lashes I will cut every thing u won't have a kobo left.

Betterprospect: Regarding age, since you don't want to get married anytime soon, as long as you can keep an open mind and not take things personally - not minding your age mates being ahead of you and your boss being younger than you - it's not something to worry much about. Since you previously learned html, css, and php, you're not really starting from scratch. Do some research on the area of tech you'd like to get into - whether it's web design, back end development, cyber security, etc - then figure out what steps you need to take in terms of certifications. You're probably better off not doing a degree but getting certifications specific to your area of interest. There are many free resources like "free code camp" to help you learn faster While building your career, start doing small jobs online or locally to get more experience and build your portfolio |

As an experienced person, your health and happiness should be your priority work will come and go 1 if your job is not giving you happiness plan for better alternative - but don t rush out plan very well - You study agric and food is scarce why cant you see how to use your skills to form a business in that line either production food or livestock, marketing , distribution or logistics 2. Tech business, you can test run that and if it works expand it and establish your self 3 Start planning for marriage and dont rush into it if you get it right your partner can also support your vision Plan, work, and pray but dont rush in or out |

Betterprospect:/ Now imagine if you are single, 30 and "happy at your job"? You will be very comfortable at your job to the point that you become stagnant without realizing that you could do better. The narcissist attitude of your boss is the motivation you need for progress. And already you are thinking in the right direction. / |
