lol. I know someone that... I have a friend that...
my guy what haven't you saved 15000cad in 3 MTHS, why is it always your friends or someone you know. Lol. Omo!

naijaboy99:
please don't insult me. I beg of you. Just prove to me that is it possible to save 30CAD in Canada and I will applaud you. Bring in facts and figures and not insult

emmaodet:
Also, the west and 3rd world countries terrain differs.
Most Nigerians are employees or job seekers in nature. So most of the time, they are always seeking for jobs which is a wrong move in third world countries compared to advance countries.
If you want to earn well here, you have to be self-employed or have your own business which most lack the skills else running to countries they will work and earn.
If you have your own bike and drive here or keke napep or car or bus and you put in 18 HOURS a day while you live like a miser, you will make bastard money per month.
A man that can’t drive car or keke napep or work in mortuary in nigeria all of a sudden doesn’t see anything wrong in old peoples home cleaning their bumbum. Can’t be a taxi driver over there, can be a barber etc.
You finish teaching around 3/4pm and can’t open your suya spot by 5pm to 10pm again but you can combine job in abroad.
You can’t pick up a bike by that time and hustle to 10pm. You can’t decide to be a mortuary attendant doing afternoon shif till 10pm in nigeria - Ohhhh, I am crazy right?
Aside salary of 30k per month, do you know how much mortuary attendant make per day? Washing and cleaning dead bodies? Collecting ambulance contract per dead body, the clothes to wear the corpse? Then the corpse owners still tip him for taking care of their corpse?

Ebubu:
OP keep consoling yourself for living in Nigeria.

Don’t find means to japa to America or UK and work 3 jobs.

Note I said 3 jobs not 1 job.

I’ve always wondered why my friends who go to US you will see their last seen midnight.They don’t stay up to a minute online, just come online, all messages are delivered, they respond to urgent messages, log out. You better reach them on calls.


Nigga comes back late by 4am, by 8am goes to work, finishes by 2pm, goes to another work from 4-8pm. by 9pm resumes Night Uber work.


Omo in a month guyy man don convert em earnings to black market rate and send to Nigeria without going through CBN rate.

Those people in abroad hardly have time because plenty work dey to do, and you no send anybody papa even if na to be security guard at midnight because absolutely nobody knows you so nothing like “you go cast”.


omo who no wan jakpa make e remain. fact be say multiple workers in abroad are saving decent amount of money.

ednut1:
i just laugh at these people. Some people go abroad go find capital they will use for business in Nigeria, Some go seek knowledge they will come use in Nigeria- NDDC oga na from abroad, Tinubu, Saraki, Omo Agege, Adenuga and many others na from abroad they come back, Na 10k daily this one dey talk about hahahaha. Shallow troll. Many of the rich men and averagely rich guys wey dey 9ja most don send their wife and kids abroad lol. The op better or smart pass them

2022Frustrated:
Ignoramus is not an insult Sir. Go and educate yourself. Too many Nigerians are doing multiple jobs especially in a place like Canada where unemployment rate is very low

2022Frustrated:
I dey do two jobs currently for Nigeria but the two jobs no dey pay me up to 260k as net salary monthly. I wan apply PhD study leave for the government one, make I enter Canada hustle for 3-5 years, get the passport and get enough money to buy a grade A agency job in Nigeria. Na my plans you talk so oooo........
I also want my kids to have the option of a dual citizenship.

naijaboy99:
so obviously you don't have a breakdown of how much they make daily doing multiple jobs. Please help me on this one so we can calculate it ourselves. What is the per hour pay doing a menial job in Canada? I want to open your eyes since you can't bring in facts

2022Frustrated:
I repeat educate yourself.

People are doing well...

I'd rather do security job in Canada and get paid good wage than do security job in Nigeria and be paid N40,000 with insults and an average person looking down on me not because if my pay but because they already have the mindset that security guards are nonentities.

Like ednut1 said, for many of us, it isn't only just about the money, it's the dignity in doing menial jobs without being look down upon, without your employer feeling your nature of job does not deserve a good pay, etc.

I laugh at your analysis of an Uber driver making N15,000 per day. Maybe in Lagos, but Abuja where I for drive Uber? LMAO. It only happens on exceptional days.

naijaboy99:
Not possible. Let me break it down for you. If I work as a driver in Nigeria from morning till night I should be able to make 21k daily for 8hrs. Take out fuel money of 4k daily that brings the amount down to 17k. Then I am expected to eat outside thrice in a day. Let's use 700naira per meal (which you know is very low) that's another 2k off. Then I drink two bottles of beer and end my day with 14k. Then in America let's work with your $120 daily after tax. Average meal is $10 so that's 30usd off. Unlike Nigeria where 2days hustle can pay my monthly rent in Canada you pay like $1,200 for a room that's like $40 daily. That's remaining $50. If we follow your calculation of $160 daily before tax that means such person is expected to bring in 48,000CAD before tax. That's like making 63,000CAD annually before tax. 90% of Nigerians in Canada don't make that money. Might even be 95%

Ebubu:


i actually want to go to abroad.

two things are on my mind

within 7 years, make enough money and buy an NPA job in Nigeria, or buy FIRS job with at least 7 million naira.


or i live and work in abroad for very long time, set up an exporting company in Nigeria. Retire back to Nigeria in late 50s, and keep exporting my cocoa or tea from Eleme port while earning in $ and receiving forex assistance from CBN.

the second one is more proper because it is a generational business, i don’t want my kids to wake up and be looking forward to a 8am-4pm regular work, let them be born business owners.


i can only choose first option if i miss nigeria so much or the country seems to be getting better, or is on the right track.

naijaboy99:
I am actually talking about a single person. Please if you have insight can you breakdown how it is possible to save $30 daily living in Canada? We can start with their pay scale after tax

Joey4321:


Haha.. I don't know about Canada. But for US it's possible working 2 jobs to save such an amount.

naijaboy99:
All the best. You will achieve more than you dream. Thanks

Rozross:
You are so on point. Very correct

leody:

I'm saving mine already, you go hear gunshots when I first you enter Canada by then you'll start taking your life serious

Blaxhex:
why am I just seeing the pic on your profile now

You're a bad gyal

Joey4321:


Haha.. I don't know about Canada. But for US it's possible working 2 jobs to save such an amount.

naijaboy99:
and where did they make the millions to go or send their people abroad? They are just trying to join the bandwagon. Isn't that what I was talking about when I said Nigerians don't believe in their country? Even if you become a billionaire in Nigeria you will still look down on your country and travel abroad thinking you are joining the winning league not knowing you are enriching them further. Then of course you have answered my question yet, I said it is impossible to save less than 10,000naira daily in Canada. I don't care if you earn 50,000CAD which 85% of Nigerians living there don't earn. Prove me wrong if you can. Thanks and happy day

2022Frustrated:
I know you will ignore this link I posted.

https://www.nairaland.com/6453577/motivation-demotivation-immigrating-canada-story/3

That's a Nigerian in Canada earning between 110k - 120k annually. Leaving one job and picking up another at will. Even doing up to 3 or more jobs......


My brother, emancipate your mind.....


My older bro (not brother by familiarity ooooo but by blood) is with the Canadian Army and he earns above 70,000 annually.


You dey shout "let Nigerians in Canada....." but ednut1 just educated you, you still don't wanna learn. All the best bro. I'm done here
