You said it all

DLonely1:
Considering the economy, it should be from $5000 which is roughly 2,8000 Million monthly. At least you should be able to take care of yourself, your family and enjoy other good things of life plus investment as well.

The truth is that as a single guy, I spend above 200K monthly on feeding and other personal expenses. 5k be like 1K in this present economy.

A well paying job doesn't exist, depends on how you can manage your pay. Cause no amount of money is enough money.

zeenaman:
What's the definition of a well-paying job in Nigeria? What range of salary can be regarded as well-paying?

3.5m up

A job that when life threatening sickness comes like kidney failure, cancer etc, your two months salary or HMO should be able to foot the bills comfortably .

Most so called well to do Nigerians are just a sickness away from death. Just one sickness, all life savings is drained yet half the bill hasn't been met that's why we always run to churches for miracles and die like chickens because we pray and hope to God to either heal us or give us the money for the treatment.

Why then have we been working all our lives? Of course just to eat and survive the next day.

May God help us

Well paying jobs in Nigeria are:

1 Politics
2 More politics
3 More and more politics

No b who get job go think of well paying jobs. My oga once showed me a CV forwarded to us by our HR so we can review if he matches our needs, the young man has families, he is way advance in age, and had had no job for many years, even though we rejected the CV for having no programming skills. Then my oga said we are in a long depressing situation as a country because the level of joblessness in Nigeria is a time bomb soon to explode.

Learn how to sell.

Find someone who is doing a business and making sales offline. You’ll find many of them in Onitsha, Computer village, Aba, Alaba, Aspamda, Idumota, etc.
Most of these people have no idea what goes on online. They also do not care what goes on online.


All they care about is making sales and getting
money flowing into the business daily.

Bring their business online, and advertise to those who want what they sell.

You will make money doing this.

As a woman, you can open an online shop for that woman selling lace in Aba, and add money on top onto for yourself. That’s your own profit on every sale.
As a guy, you can open an online store store for that man selling computers at Computer village.


Read information from Google and publish content about computers and what people should look out for before buying a laptop.
More people would begin to reach out to you when need laptops.


Reach out to that guy who makes shoes and footwear in your neighborhood and be their online guy.
Promote what they make online and add your own profit.

Look around you, look where others are neglecting, you’ll find a gem.

You can’t afford to be idle for long.
You can’t afford to stay broke.
You can’t afford to continue earning a meagre salary every month.

You don’t need to be a genius to make money online, and have a better life.

I think generally 1m monthly .

But for single guy 500k will suffice..

Interesting thread

150k above

A well paying job is actually quite relative as what is well paying for me may be low paying for Cuppy Otedola and be a stuff of dreams for Jinadu, the bricklayer apprentice!

I'd rather consider a side definition of a well paying job as any one with a salary range that can get you out of poverty and into the lower middle income bracket. Now, we must consider 3 additional items herr:; location, marital status & social condition. I make a small assumption here to accommodate the items above - 35yrs old male, based in low end of Lagos, married with 2 young kids, not very social and quite churchy. Let's go.

Your main lines of expenses, as a family unit, will be:

Accommodation (Rent) - N400k
Food & Groceries - N380k
Educational fees - N520k
Subscriptions (data, tv, etc) - N210k
Fuel (car & generator) - N290k
General purchases - N500k
Medical care - N220k
Replacement & Repairs - N150k
Entertainment - N50k
Give aways (family etc) - N50k
Tithe, Offerings, Zakat etc. - N170k
Miscellaneous - N100k
Long term savings - 100k
Short term savings - 40k

TOTAL - N3,180,000.00 (three million, one hundred and eighty thousand naira only).

The above is all the family requires for a year to live a fairly decent lower middle income life above poverty rate in Lagos boroughs like Iju, Ipaja, Epe, etc.

If only the man works, a net monthly salary of N270k should serve them. If both parents work, anything above N130k each should do. From this point on, the availability of career growth with possibility of income rise will make the job resemble something you can call a well paying job.

What's the definition of a well-paying job in Nigeria? What range of salary can be regarded as well-paying?

It used to be #250 000 but now it's #500 000 and above.

The definition of a well-paying job depends on the number of dependants you have, experience and age.

A fresh graduate who earns 100k - 250k is not doing badly.

A family man who earns between 1m - 5m is not doing badly.

These are the kind of jobs people sit on, waiting for their children to take over.

700k a month...

1m if married...

The definition of " well paying" is relative...50k job somewhere can be better than a 100k job some place else...

500k monthly is a good paying job

You should have added monthly house rent

Food and Groceries 380K is not even manageable for a single guy in a year.

MC oluomo job is well pay job.

werey,be specific..

U are too practical and your analysis is well thought out.

Others just dey talk wetin no dey practical. When u are talking about salary or what people earn yearly is the best way to work out the calculation in both jobs and business.

Keep it up.

Viraltrends123:
Anything above 100k for those that are contented, and anything above 1 million for those that want to impress the world, by hyped iPhone that was 950k when released, now it's like 500k, have the biggest car and the loudest gen in their street, buy hyped Dior, Gucci, anything below 500k for this kind of people, is a big problem, Because 500k can't cover maintenance and pay bills.

For the contented, 100k is enough, and they will like their happy silent life.

Meanwhile, the best of them all is a contented person earning 1 million+

good analysis

Does yahoo plus give you up to 500 000 a month.

zeenaman:
What's the definition of a well-paying job in Nigeria? What range of salary can be regarded as well-paying?

200k and above.

This question is relative.
In my opinion, where you live in the country matters the most.
For a single person earning around 200 to 300k in some parts of the north where 200 to 220k can get you a mini-flat (room and palor, tiled and with POP), that could be the person's definition of a "well-paying" job.

Food and transportation isn't on the high side in the north as well. I mean after paying your rent (once a year), the 200 to 300k in subsequent months should be enough to cater for monthly feeding and other expenses, plus one should still be able to save close to 40 or 50% of the salary monthly. I don't mean someone who is addicted to the frivolous kind of lifestyle.
Then imagine what someone staying in a single room would be able to achieve.
All of these don't include Abuja though.

If the same isn't applicable down south, then I wouldn't say it's a well-paying job.
