So I currently work as a system admin in a new generation bank where I earn almost 500k while also having a side hustle that pays me 400dollrs monthly, Iā€™m thinking of relocating as my sis and her husband have been on my case to migrate, I am in my early 30 no serious relationship just figuring if japa is the way cos my remote job actually pays me better if Iā€™m here than leaving just need advice on this.

You can also consider buying spamming tools, it costs about $3.5-4k. One loading job can give you about $200k. If you no fit run am, get vendors and buy the tools, employ me, I go work for you as a contract, we can bargain over that....there's huge money on that.

Bros don't let anybody deceive you. There are more opportunities here once you meet the necessary requirements.

OP, you are earning close to N1million. 95% of Nigerians are not earning that amount. If you JAPA in haste, you may not earn the same amount or be able to replicate the lifestyle you have in Nigeria. My advise to you is to invest your money, make a profit and buy a second passport. Yes, go through the citizenship by investment route. When you have enough capital, you can acquire a caribbean passport (St. Kitts, Dominica, Grenada) which will give you visa free access to most countries in the West. Don't put all your eggs in Nigeria. With a second passport, you have an exit strategy in case Nigeria gets too hot for you. With a second passport, your children's future is secure. With a second passport, you can be shuttling back and forth between Europe and Nigeria. With a second passport, you can work anywhere in world. Please, focus on what I just said and don't allow anyone to distract you (including women) until you have achieved this. Shalom.

I'm not debunking that. He's not the first to japa and regret it. Plus, unless he's very good, they'd employ others over him

European countries are beginning to cancel visa free access for carribean countries. The UK just cancelled access for Dominica.

I'm well aware that the UK and some European countries are canceling visa-free access for some of those caribbean countries as many people have used those countries passports as a backdoor to the UK and Europe. Nevertheless, it's still the OP's best bet as many European countries are canceling their own citizenship via investment routes (Malta,Cyprus and now Portugal). Otherwise, he may have to go through Canada PR express entry or go to Brazil and marry a citizen there. The caribbean citizenship via investment is his best bet as it's cheaper (minimum of $100K) and he doesn't have to live there in order to get it. That's what a lot of Nigerian politicians and captains of industry are doing right now.

True, however it's not easy growing one million to a hundred thousand US dollars o.

I agree but what choice does he have? Citizenship via investment in Portugal, Cyprus, Spain or Malta starts at $500,000. Its $1million in Malta, 1million GB in the UK and at least $1 million in the U.S. You still have to live in those countries for at least 3 years before you qualify and acquire it. Otherwise, he may have to Japa to get it.

Men a scary reality. The best time to do this japa thing is in ones early 20s get the passport and come back to Nigeria or go anywhere else.

This is what I said in one of my posts a few months ago and I was lambasted as drunkard. grin Immigration is not for the faint-hearted. It's best to do it in your prime. It's best to do it when you have no responsibilities and no established career. There's a reason why student visas are the most common visas for those who want to JAPA LEGALLY. As a student, especially undergraduate, you have the advantage of learning how the system works at uni. It is also easier to form friendships and relationships while in uni than as a graduate in a company.

One can immigrate at a mature age. It's just that you have to start over from scratch except you are lucky to secure a job or already have something on ground before you arrive.
