For real bro...there was a guy dat was doing almost N1M a month on a steady bro...I kid you not.

Anytime d guy upload his dashboard then, wavulence begins on the thread. You see partner threatening to collect their cars from lazy drivers, lazy drivers insulting the guy and office guys asking if they should resign their jobs.

That guy inspired many to resign their jobs and join the hussle....inspired partners to increase weekly rental

....his dashboard screenshot was the nightmare of many drivers on weekly rental grin

Genea:
my dear I am weak.
the challenge is most nigerians dont have the right info when they arrive and learn by trial and error. The indians and chinese tend to support each other way better. I have been a victim of Nigerians keeping away from each other and leaving everyone to fend for themselves with new immigrants having to struggle to learn the ropes

Even basic things like interview ethics that apply here, I have had to learn by trial and error.

You too you're earning more than 600...kai
accounting started with a big4 consulting firm though. A chartered accountant generally earns well per Nigeria's situation and find more employment opportunities because almost all firms need a finance dept

I earned more than that but I could do what I was able to do when I earned 200K+ about 7years ago, so its not about what you earn. Its about what you can do with it.

The people you talked to are not lying, more and more Nigerians are starting to open up about life in the diaspora and being truthful about their experiences.

A neighbour who works with Mobil and has relocated his family of 4 (wife & 3 kids) to Canada told me life is not as rosy as we think and it's really tough overseas. But our people like to lie and pretend about these things.

Does it make sense to leave a good paying job for a menial one like some of your friends are doing? I don't care how much it pays, you don't need a soul sucking job that pays XYZ amount before you can live a good life. You get the money and end up with other issues like depression, health hazards etc

I have heard of a 50 something year old Nigerian man who works in a factory over there, he suffers from back pain and all, but he can't quit. He has to keep grinding because they took out a mortgage on their house, him and wifey are still working to pay off. I can't recall the exact age I was told but it was something close to our retirement age in Naija. If they were here, chances are, he would have built his house and been able to retire from active duty by now.

Before you japa watch a YouTube video of Wode Maya & Juliet (search for it on Youtube) to help you make an informed decision. Take your time to read the comments that follow as well, it is African diasporans sharing their truth and experiences.
Diff things work for diif people and its always good to plan well an have the right work documents and skill.

Being in the developed west is way better than Nigeria,

1. the jobs are there (https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/hiring-crisis-vacancies-unemployed-jobseekers-b1000492.html)
2. what you call menial jobs in the west provide a far more livable wage even for than anything you will get in Nigeria....a security gaurd could earn GBP20,000 entry wage, while a professional will earn GBP40,000 per annum...in Nigeria a security gaurd will do 30k per month, the proessional will do 300,00k per month......who do you think will live a better life?
3. Job market is very flexible ...you can pick up several shift and a lot of them allow remote working with good mobility. A lot of blue collar jobs here payas much as mid-level white collar jobs because they are more flexible and wages are decent.
4. In the Uk at least, gov provides good social support...NHS, funded child education and all
5. its a good investment in your kids...Nigeria is going down a pit. You onl need to be in a working society to appreciate how much the country is now a jungle.
6. If you save 20% of your menial income here which is doable and translate it back to make an investment in Nigeria...you would probably have to work 5years of your white collar job in Nigeria to save the same - right now 1GBP is about 800N

I earned about 750k a month in Nigeria, my regret is not leaving earlier. Dont discourage people if you dont know what is obtainable over there..responsible and legal migration is important though

First class ignorance.Russia is d biggest country in d world! more Dan 3 times bigger Dan china,how can such b a province in china? some pple sha!
The ignorance on display here is yours.

Russia's economy is smaller than Italy's (despite russia being 57 times bigger than Italy in land mass).

The Russian economy is 1/8 the size of china's.

Russia is largely has an extractive industry with very limited capacity to produce consumer goods. If China doesnt show mercy on russia, the country will flounder. The west has also started phases out Russian oil and gas from their value chain...this is by far Russias moat significant export and they need a big uptaker to replace the west.

China is Russia's lifeline to survive western sanctions which is why the G7 recently warned China to not undermine russia's sanction (https://www.google.com/amp/s/tass.com/world/1451391/amp). I quoted Tass because some russian bots on NL will quote it as propaganda...but this is russian gov official news outlet.

In any relationship between china ans russia, russia will have to bow to china and trust the chinese to take advantage of it

1stGenAmerican:
Every time the Russian Army retreats from the failed takeover of a Ukrainian city, you guys try to convince us that the city was considered strategically unimportant. We know better, starting with Kiev. Which strategy includes retreating from the capital without leaving soldiers to occupy the entire city? Which Army would waste time and resources attacking cities that are ‘strategically unimportant’?
You know better, just like we know better.
Dont waste your time arguing with them. I have come to believe they are paid Russian trolls. There explanation often defies common sense

APC2:
My father told me that I should marry another wife before talking about divorce. That when I give my attention to the second wife, my only wife now will regret and change. And I am also considering my son too. I can take care of two wives comfortalbly.
Oga sometimes you live and let live. From your write up you had money for hotel and money for a 2nd wife, why didnt you just give your wife money or part of it when you realise she was insistent? You could jokinly just tell her you expect a miracle for this bag of rice or no more buying or some other joke that clearly conveys your opposition to it. With time she will understand your perspective. No woman in her right sense will want to impoverish the home she lives in...she is just misled and oga you must learn a more matured way to deal with that. That is why you are the head of the home and by God's grace the bread winner.

In this 21st century you may not find a spouse that you expect to say yes to your every instruction or opinion. Women today will like you to debate them and explain why they are wrong and honestly even your 2nd wife may not be any better. She may just be letting you have your way because you have the leverage (money).

God forbid, if you lose the ability to carter for her or she starts earning as much as you, then you will know every woman has her opinion and being the head of the home, you must learn how to manage and control such without being dismissive.

Also banish domestic violence from your home....never tolerate her raising her hand on you and never raise your hands on her. You beat her till she could not stand? What if she developed some serious medical issue? If she cant be civil in her behaviour, send her out of the house

Petrol has been trading at highs for over 1year now, why then is the naira still in a steep decline?

Incase you don't realise the war is not just fought on the battlefield, its being fought in the information space.

One of the reasons why there was a "blitzkrieg" of sanctions on Russia was because the Ukrainians were able to distill the required information that demonised russia quite quickly in the war....nairaland is not the place for such arguements though

OBAGADAFFI:
What Russia is facing in Ukraine is not new
The US also lost Men and Arms in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.

The biggest loser is the one whose territory is been invaded.

It sad the Zelensky is ignoring advice from Europe and dancing to the US.
@bolded, wrong!!
Russia has taking bits of territory from Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine in the past, with all soviet states too fearful of confronting Russia.
This is the first time a "junior" soviet state will stand up to russia and go head to head with it and put up a credible defence that has caused russia significant loss

When this war is done, other soviet states would fancy their chance going against RUssia.

The fact that neighbouring states like Sweden and Finland that erswhile would dare to challenge russia have openly declared during the war that they will strongly consider joining Nato is an indication of the damage to russia's standing.

Russia's economy will remain extraction based a longer period also, outside the Chinese, there will be very little FDI going there

Dvdpity:
Ukraine still losing territories.. losing equipment, losing soldiers, losing various infrastructures, losing a lot, do you know how many generals, majors, and other ranks that Russia has? Soldiers will always die in wars. And will be replaced but the lose of territories and infrastructures is very hard to get back again. Especially territories that are the bread basket of country. Well let keep the show on.. Ukraine is winning.. hahahaha.
Russia is the invading army...its for Putin to justify why the country has to suffer the continuing loss of men and armour at a rate that has tarnished Russia image as a superpower and rather than deter, encouraged neighbouring states to take an anti-Russian stance some even threatening to join Nato (https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/attack-on-europe-documenting-equipment.html)

For Ukraine, they are fighting for their home and very existence, the loss is higher at other end, but it is an easier story to sell at their end as a battle for the very survival of their statehood for which no price is to small. Its a battle of will,and with weapons flowing in from the west unabated , Russia will blink first, I can bet that with you. Russia knows this to that's why we have the near weekly threat of nuclear weapons from Russia. The fact that Ukraine has been foot dragging and changing its stance in negotiations should tell you they are also smelling a bleeding bear with a potential to further humiliate russia (https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/4/22/russia-putin-ukraine-inconsistency-negotiations)

You're spot on bro..what most of them don't realise is a black woman is more likely to be tolerant of your failings than a white woman because they have more respect for family as a unit and co-parenting. Ignore those saying the race of the wife doesn't matter.

Thank God he is making the work of other aspirants easier by castigating his own Government which he spent 8 years as number 2 man, trying to exonerate himself forming Saint

Ask Him what he did with his security votes for 8 years and what he spent his office running cost on



.
I guess this is to say the VP is bad but Tinubu is good. For as much as it is agreed that Buhari failed Nigerians both are responsible because the additional 4 years of suffering Nigerians will suffer under Buhari was largely as a result of both men not having the basic sincerity to admit Buhari's first term was a failure and he was not going to take Nigeria anywhere good if given 4 years.

And no,Nigeria should not be Tinubu's gift for loyalty or whatever virtue. Anyone who wants to shown gratitude to Tinubu can offer any personal gift to him including his wife and children. The lives of 200million nigerians should not be a gift to anybody.
