How Do People Get Rich In Nigeria? by HugeElephant(f): 1:43pm On Jul 27, 2023
Sincere Question, "how do prople get rich?".
I want to base the question on Nigeria alone.
How do Nigerians get rich ?

I look around and all i see is just salary earners, youth into poultry farming, fisheries,
POS stand, hairdressers, carpenters, Gambling and bet, modernized TAXI drivers making use of some apps, clothe sellers and many more?
Basically, many are not even living an average life. We are living below the average.

I have been wondering, how can i escape from this "below average life" or "average life"?
i look around me and watch the TV. On the media and in songs, you hear different adoration of some Nigerians who had achieved the wealth threshold. How did they do it? i am sorry if i sound crazy!

For some of these rich people, you wonder, how was the struggle?
How were they able to build their friendship base. How were they able to survive the government's myriad taxation.
may bodies under the state government will charge you, my bodies under the federal government will charge you too.
if taxation doesn't kill your business, you go dey pray make thieves no ruin your business.

i would have asked, How do people get rich around the world, but the world is too large and answers i might get may not be applicable to the society i currently live in.
big respect to everyone that has been able to achieve wealth...

First of all you have to belong.

Secondly you have to be informed.

Thirdly you need to have talents.

And last but not the least you need to solve a problem..

Many people are making money, but they hide it..

Those ones you mentioned can't be hidden, so everyone jump on them.

But above all you have to belong first.

How to get Rich:

1. The Good Way: Follow the career path you have passion for and then wait and trust God Almighty directly, not through a pastor.

2. The evil way is to join and follow: https://www.nairaland.com/7779228/what-drives-politicians-embrace-occultism#124675567

Kastellas are ELRUFAI ROAD CRIMINALS.
SO JOIN THE LOOTING SPREE TO GET RICH UNTIL TINUBU BRINGS OUT HIS MAGIC WAND.

You are now on the right path to living the poverty trap that has held many down ...the only way to get rich is to do what the majority have refused to do and that is going the riskiest route always , the riskiest routes hold all the rewards you seek

There are 3 ways I know;

1. Be born into a rich family or be connected to rich benefactors who can hook you up with a life changing job or contract.

2. Hustle hard, make small money, save like crazy then invest wisely. Maybe in 7 to 15 years time you'll become rich. Almost any legit biz can do it but it is not the easiest way. Good examples music, acting, business, trading crypto etc.

3. Become an evil money chaser i.e yahoo yahoo, selling drugs, scamming people for fake jobs, fake pastor, politician, runz girl or other evil runs

Modified: A poor igala woman that came to Abuja to fry Akara. She is the bread winner of her home. Has started building in her village and has bought the house she and her family live in.

It is possible to hustle and make it in Nigeria.

Prostitution and running a ring of it

Following and this is my input.
Many Nigeria's can't work together, greed won't let them. This I've known from my experience setting up 2 companies. I'm on the third company and it has been a solo effort.

Secondly, the system is rigged against the poor. 90% of those youth in SME's especially poultry business are working for survival, a bag of the best feed as at today cost 11k, DOC prices could go up as much as 550 naira so if you really want to make a decent living from poultry business, you must be able to generate your birds and feeds.

Becoming rich in this country is not easy so everyone is just trying to survive.

Plenty ways.
1. By working hard
2. By working smart,
3. By being fraudulent

The first one is the hardest route that will make you rich, but it's the one that will give you the most peace.
The second one in some cases have element of the third one.

Go into drugs and make enough money and come and contest election in NIGERIA, then be worshipped as a king like Tinubu and Late Buruji Kashimu.

Very simple.

° [b]Brodaman, this road long oh but man's gat get hope.

Politics is the koko oh, know and increase your politician friend base. Start from service, you get to know many things government is planning because they no dey drop everything for the masses. Fake life is the basic for this, if them say join cult, you need to join or find one lie. You need to be able to lie, even when caught. Strategy na koko, don't believe anything until it's done. So contract and some opportunities suppose dey if you fit calcu well


Yahoo is one hotline, but you need to jazz it. Connect with the best and cash out quick, cuz friendship no dey here, them fit use you.
If you no fit do am join the content creation team. He go stress you but your yahoo network go dey help you small cuz they want status and fame which you will get if you get advertisement money and ready to do anything for content or fame. Actress, actors, artiste, comedians and the creative dey this table. Anything online go learn am oh, digital is the new way so add programming if you get brain and no go sleep for tutorials


Business oh, don't be scared, but if you can survive 5 years building loyal customers/client base, business network. You're good to go, be careful of workers and cashflow, those two no get sense, na you go dey force them to work.
Take your paid job and career as business, always find ways to collect money from people that come to your office, it could be for your company or yourself.
Make sure you dey do ajo, cooperatives, and all of them join and make judicious use of the money, cuz he easy to spend money.


Money is made by offering product or service, the larger the customers/client base, the bigger the return which is not technically profit, always find ways to increase your profit margin which is hard that's why we call it business, you don't pluck it from trees, you find strategy to collect the money from their pockets.
Ah japa japa go anywhere go hmmmm, sha find ways to collect money from people pocket, the Risker the better
