Should I Still Relocate Abroad? by AssistntBoyfrnd(m): 6:44pm On Oct 13, 2022 |
Hello Fam, I am a tech bro and currently work for a remote company in Poland that pays me 4000 USD monthly. Does it make sense to relocate abroad or stay put in Nigeria. Kindly advise, thank you. 2 Likes 1 Share

Yeah, you can go to Ghana or Rwanda where there's a little stability and continue your work since it's also abroad. 3 Likes |

If you're earning in dollars, staying in Nigeria will make you extremely rich... Because of the exchange rate... But traveling abroad will make you live an average life. 11 Likes |

hamouston91: what does moving abroad profits you? I wanted to apply for Portugal D7 visa which allows me to stay in Portugal for 5 years and then apply for Portuguese citizenship. How has being in Nigeria affected you? Insecurity especially police wahala whenever I am driving my car. What will be your loss upon moving abroad? Can't say really, based on research, I learned Portugal is quite cheap to live in so won't say there will be any loss and I can apply for NHR which gives me tax exemption or very little tax. What has been your loss,having remained in Nigeria. Spent quite much on electricity and data. 6 Likes |

AssistntBoyfrnd:Take advantage of the Remote worker visas in Hungary, Spain, Portugal, Estonia Holland ETC. While living there, you can easily get another job paying close to €90000 per year minus annual bonus or stock options. That's far better than living in Nigeria and just earning $4000/m with you providing your social amenities by yourself 100%. But ofcourse, this is from the perception of thinking big. Mediocre will tell you it's enough and you're a king in Nigeria, which I won't blame them, but why settle for average when you can find balance with more. I've noticed those who discourage people from traveling out are importers, Local business gangs making thousands or millions, and those doing business that won't flourish as in the west. It's understandable for them, but they forget the world does not revolve around them alone. But for Tech bros like us, the opportunities are much out there than here. So please, use the digital nomad Visa and get to see the world beyond what Nigeria has made us believe to be normal 23 Likes 1 Share |

Hannania: I hope you're not offering this advice from Nigeria Majority of people abroad don't make that $4000/month after tax. If you don't live abroad, you may think people pluck money from trees. 2 Likes |

ChybuzzDD:Tech people are not your "Majority". And hope you were not blind to the stock options and annual bonus I mentioned which no firm will give while working remotely in NIGERIA. We need an orientation on the standard of living in this country. An average Nigerian doesn't even know the Full meaning of GDP and PPP, and discussions like this tend to be difficult to maintain due to poor educational foundations on those topics 5 Likes 1 Share |

You need to move to a country with a lower cost of living than Nigeria so you end up saving more for the future. In Africa, that would mean good countries like Tunisia or Morocco. |

Hannania: You just went straight like a typical Nigerian blabbing without addressing your question. Where are you offering your advice from?? Do you have a practical experience of he advice you're giving out? Let me not believe you're sitting there in Nigeria and quoting all these rubbish figures based on what read online. 1 Like |

AssistntBoyfrnd: Is the job guaranteed for life? If you move to Portugal.... will they still have the job? ... bear in mind many companies have remote workers to lessen payroll and avoid expenses such as taxes. If the migrate... hold the same job... and pay ... what would be your standard of living? ... would the salary be enough to maintain you earing in mind it will be wayyy higher than in Nigeria? What are your chances of finding another job over there?... do you speak Portuguese? If electricity bill is stressing you in Nigeria ... what will happen in Portugal? ... or do you think electricity is free? .. do the conversion. Same with water bill. Did you consider Portugal is not hot all year? .. and the ongoing Ukraine/Russia War? Not saying one shouldn't migrate or look for greener pastures.... but one should look well before leaping |

AssistntBoyfrnd: If you could land 4K USD from Nigeria, that means you're good enough to do bigger numbers if you relocate abroad. Did you see the news of a man who had sold his car and put up his house for sale so he could pay ransom for his two kidnapped children (who he may never see again)? That's what Nigeria does to you. Don't wait till you make up the statistics. 1 Like |

Kaycee54321:lol. Issokay na. Roll up your sleeves cos you have plenty of work to do. With this your doomsday conclusion you gats relocate popsy, money, your brother(s), sister(s), uncle, aunt, cousin, grandparents (if still alive) in short the whole family tree before I take you seriously. Afterall, what kinda person would you be leaving your loved ones at the mercy of the situation you have so eloquently described? OP, eti e melo! sit your ass down and grow your empire. You have an opportunity many would give an arm and leg for, earning good foreign money right here in Nigeria.

Kaycee54321: Ignore that guy, or didn't we hear of that YouTuber who was making at least 10K-20k dollars monthly? The one efcc wrongly labelled a yahoo boy and today after winning his court case against efcc, can't boast of a source of income? That's the day I made up my mind to leave the country, I make good money in dollars but God forbid I stay in Nigeria... Doomsday is a reality, if them no kidnap u, efcc or police or even shallow minded neighbours can label him a fraudster one day. 1 Like 1 Share |
