People keep saying benefit as if it's free. I pay for everything and nothing is for free. I can't wait for my investment to grow and I cash out. Yankee boring like hell. I pray never to be 45 years old here. Naija sweet when you have money but Yankee boring with or without money. I have money in my account and still hungry. Tired of eating junks and you be like F this place. Average Americans grow up to be independent and stay to themselves while average Nigerians grow up with people around. For example, I have Hulu live TV and I don't even enjoying watching premiership by myself while viewing centers for Bariga is an event to look forward to when home.... I tell a friend, by the time we 50 and we still here, we will be closer to suicide cos the older you get, the likely the loneliness get to you. MufasaLion: 8 Likes |

/ Some services are more easily accessible in Nigeria if you have money eg healthcare, mechanic. But in emergency healthcare or criminal situation, you are on your own in Nigeria. Loneliness? The cure to loneliness is to erase Nigeria from your mind and embrace your new life. / 6 Likes |

MufasaLion: 3 years and you don’t have $20k? You must be doing something wrong . I am not yet 3 years but I already bought a home worth $765k at the Center of Ottawa with a monthly mortgage payment of about $4k. Please reorder your priorities. I have tons of Canadian friends and I am happy with my new life. The only downside is just being the only black person amongst my Canadian friends and really have difficulties understanding Ice hockey and baseballs when we go out for game nights. Please interact with your neighbourhood. I am yet to see people as friendly and interesting as Canadians. 7 Likes 1 Share |

All I know is, I have a friend that left Nigeria after covid to Canada and was able to deposit 90k CAD for a home. He saved that between 2020 and 2022. I don't know why you single man could not save such because my guy went with his wife. Focus and plan is d main thing here 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Op, thanks for coming out. They will never listen. If there is a place called suffering and smiling even when you have money, outside your base is it. All the millionaires and billionaires run back home. Quality of life is where your social life is, not "good education" for your children that assume culture that turns against you. It is not even regular water and electricity that if you fail to pay for, turn those born and bred there homeless. It is not a place where they give you cold shoulder for no other reason than the color of your skin. It is not a place you work three times as hard and get half of what a regular job give an average Joe with less qualifications But an average African has an insane inferiority complex. The more whites shiit in his face, the more he loves it and defend them. It is too late for some, they cannot go back home and they cannot stay happy abroad. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Hmmmm all I see on this thread is hatred toward what OP shared. No tangible advise. Just the usual "Life is better in Canada than Naija". From reasoning, it's really better to nurture your pain yourself. Nigerian can't understand what OP us talking about. All they don't want to see is your snow picture to serve as a motivation for them to Japa too. And that's why Orion back home try as much to satisfy our cravings with pictures so we can know they're happy with the decision they make. An average Nigerian just want to see abroad pictures. We all have this inferiority complex, including myself. Learn to stomach your suffering. No one cares. 7 Likes 1 Share |

No country want u to take Kobo out of their economy talkless of $20k!. U don't travel abroad solely to go and safe money, they will not even allow you, that is how they designed their system. not like naija where someone can store billion of naira in his house. Presently, am in US with my family and I know what am saying. My brother, blend with people around you and enjoy ur life in Canada, any little amount you can safe, safe it.

Mancala: Saving your money in cash in this recession is the best, stocks has gone terribly bad since April 2022. Everything has crashed, many companies are laying off in drones. Real Estate is also dicey because $20k is too small to put in, except mortgage that runs to 35 years plus in Canada. So he needs consistent good salary to ensure that too. I don't know much about Bonds, so my verdict is please save your money in cash abeg. 1 Like |

My cousin has been in Canada for a little over 3yrs and he is doing well. How did I know? He has renovated his family house, he lives "alone" (i mean no room mate or whatsoever) he's sponsoring his siblings in school (both are in their finals) and this guy still sends money to me and my brothers. Oga if your coworkers are still waiving your attempts to talk to them, it means you are not productive. We all know how all these foreigners want to mingle with us if they see our productivity firsthand. Oga open the next chapter 5 Likes 2 Shares |

I pray Op see this one to read. Just as someone said that he need to get his priorities right. My two brothers, both senior and junior are in Canada, they are doing very very very well. Right from the first day Op arrives Canada, he has already condition his mindset to failure. The loneliness excuse is just too childish. tshtsh: 2 Likes |

Aareona: Your experience is not applicable to everyone. At least not for me or my brother or the few Nigerian friends I know here I came into Canada over 7 years ago for my PhD programe. Today I am a citizen, have a good job and wonderful colleagues. I am the only black guy in the office team. I have a few friends here in my city that I connect with. Nothing missing, No regrets in any way. All I need God has provided by his MERCY. I thank him everytime. If you are an introvert, you will navigate well here because the system is a kind of mind your business system, however you will still meet a few Canadians who go out of their way to relate with you and strike a conversation. If you are an extrovert, it may be a frustrating time for you except you make new type of friends that love to relate with people and go out too..then you may not feel the impact of loneliness. 4 Likes |

It's annoying to be sincere. Now I know the reason Nigerian politicians only enter UK. 6 hours to UK and you're back home living large. US and Canada is individualist countries. Even with wife and kids, you're still bored. An ideal situation is to make money here, start something sustainable for Naija and leave like late 40's, early 50's. Yankee does not know old people. 40 per cent of Americans can't retire, they will work till death. It's common to see 70 years old still working at Walmart... Childofthelord: 1 Like |

Aareona: Many of those quoting you will not understand because just like you before you arrived in Canada, you used to have thesame feelings. But to me, I fully understand what you are talking about, depression in all these developed countries is out of this world. Life is just too boring around here, back home, the only issue is lack of money but in Canada and many of those western countries, it's lack of so many things, frustrations here and there. To me, the best way to reduce the pressure is traveling home at least once in every 2 years irrespective of the cost implications, that recharges and revitalizes me, this place is not somewhere any reasonable Nigerian should plan to live for ever I swear. May God help and change our country for good. No place like Naija. 7 Likes 1 Share |
