If that's the case, Nigerians based in Canada would have bought all the lands and businesses in Nigeria.

One thing about abroad is that the system is designed in a way that as you are making the money, the system is taking it back from you. If you are able to save $200 every month after taxes, expenses and bills, you will thank God.

Using Toronto as example. If you make minimum wage of $2800 per month, your rent alone is average $2,200 for one bedroom.
You will still pay phone bill ($90), electricity bill ($100), water bill ($80), heating bill ($100), insurance for car ($150), food ($250) e.t.c

How much do you think will remain?

Well, I live here in Toronto, and have done so for years. I have worked in many places and now run a firm. I also lived in London for 15 years. Save your ignorance for people who don’t know these things.

If you want to be genuinely educated, I can give you a minute. Otherwise, stop speaking to what what you don’t know!

It's all nonsense. Unless there is laziness and real immigration challenges, they should be able to make the CAD equivalent of the amount in a year. Of course, transitions may create challenges, but these stories are often simplistic and silly generalizations.

Pls I Will be traveling to Europe soon pls Incase I go into a relationship there will I be entitled to half my boyfriend properties if we break up together pls I need an answer pls

From a family and divorce lawyer here…

Yes, if you establish the markers of a common law relationship(a relationship of permanence):

1. Date him for 3 years, or…
2. Have a child with him and stay for a year.

I lived in the UK as a student for many years, and made far more that.

I know many professionals making $11-20k monthly before tax all around me in Canada. Some lawyers and doctors make far more than the $20k sef/month.

Yes, it depends on your career path and where you are.

Japa is great. There are many who would have been nobodies in Nigeria who are building great lives across the West and financially successful.

Dele lives abroad; his family lives there as I type this. Dele now frequents Nigeria because of close friendship with politicians - Governor Adeleke, Atiku, Afikuyomi et. The things he sees with these guys are the reason for his latest comments.

cococandy:
Not for their government, Hamas, their policy makers/enforcers or any invested third party that has something to gain from this decades long standoff?

Just the everyday people who are living through it without any choice. Not being the ones who asked for it?

Just wondering.

Hey! Good to read you again. 😁

Canada is better. I live here around the GTA and crawl well. Plenty parties-birthdays, wedding anniversaries among others.

A number of lounges, clubs & restaurants are popping up daily in Toronto, Vaughan, Etobicoke among others- Festac Lounge is a good place to start and they will love you if you are good. The rebranded ATL-Naira Lounge- is great too. La Shish is good too.

I can make introductions if you ever make it here.

I lived and studied in London and a few places in England for 14 years. Yes, South-East, East and North-West London has many Nigerians and places. It’s all largely poverty HQ. Canada has changed many professional lives and given many modest wealth in 2-3 years in ways that the UK can’t give in 20-30 years.

Just ensure that you have secured and permanent immigration. Reach out for ideas if you want.

For Nigerians who like to criticize Canada, tell them they know nothing. Great opportunities for financial security and professional prosperity abound. Ignore the noise of students and people with no permanent immigration.

DrLivzy:
Please this is an important thread. We need to continue discussing. The most important thing about traveling abroad is going prepared with de right certificates or skills needed in those countries. I studied Biochemistry and of course is useless here. Am thinking of getting into tech or is the biochemistry OK to land me a job job in Canada? Can I rely on it?

Send me a message.

When she was laid to rest.there were rumours her abroadian husband beat her to death in Italy RIP Rita

I know a Rita, from Italy, here in Canada. She may have a story close to what you just alluded to, but she is alive here with 4 kids. I hope she isn't the one. Perhaps, get in touch if you think she is.

Brilliant analysis except that Tinubu will get more than 4m more, Obi will get FAR LESS than the states and the votes you give him. Obi will win 3-5 states and do less than 3-4m votes.

Ttalk:
That's exactly my thought on this projection, it look like social media gist.

35% for LP in Lagos is not possible, that's just the truth.

35% in Lagos is like the entire population of Anambra and Enugu state, when the population of Igbo in Lagos is not more than 10%.

We shall see the LG that would deliver 35% vote for LP when Jimi Agbaje the son of the soil could not pull such figure in Lagos when he contested

Labour won’t get up to 11% in Lagos, and won’t get more than 5% in any other SW state.

I don’t know where these guys get the data or patterns for their wild speculations from.

Many young people don’t understand our politics unfortunately. And they are too arrogant to learn the basics.

Way off! How do you allocate votes to non-existing parties in Tinubu’s heartland? I think you lean too much on social media pulses for most of your analyses. You can do better!

Nyascobar1414:
No, Op such doesn't exist in the west;if in any case of divorce, when your source of Income is being looked at, about 50% or 70% of what you earned will be given to your wife and kid/s as spousal support... Even though she signs the prenup.. During divorce or court cases to secure for spousal support, she can say she was mentally ill when she signed for the prenup; trust me if you guys are in the west,the whole game will be tossed against you as a man..

I'll advice you to keep her here in Nigeria,send her monthly Income for the kids,(and also go for DNA test before you start taking responsibility of your child/ren...

Though(as per body no be firewood) she might be fvking other guys, but I think that is better than loosing your properties and money in the name of marriage...

Your money and properties are the only things that can be loyal to you as a man.. If you need loyalty from a living thing, Get a dog.

The west is all about women and children..



MGTOW!

This is NOT true. I practice family law in the West.
Canada and other countries have child support calculation guidelines that are founded on the gross income of the paying parent and the number of children they have.

Child support is an automatic obligation paid to WHOEVER has custody or primary residence of the child (ren). This is not always the mother. Spousal support is NOT automatic. But normally a spouse (NOT only wife) who is not working and who is financially dependent on the working and more financially secured spouse MAY be entitled to some spousal support. Length of marriage and other factors will be relevant considerations.

There is something called equalization of the assets… This is another thing that may come up.

Suffices to say that divorce does NOT favour women automatically as many assume.

Child support calculations will depend on CURRENT income. A prenup can’t capture that.

Ednut03:
Yeah. There are Nigerian Men in America who has not had a decent chance at sex for years. The only chance at sex they get is when they visit Naija once in a while. You ain't even getting a white chick to talk to you or give you her number if you ain't ridiculously good looking, dress well and speak really high.

Same apply to a woman and it's even worse. Men are thirsty, unlike Women, and she might get sexed and few attentions until the sex lasts. But she's not going to get any commitment if she doesn't match the beauty standard. So, she will be lonely too. Nigerian Men are still better positioned than her. And her woes even worsen if she's above 30. They rarely get white men. No they don't, because Nigerian women also fall short of the look And beauty standard

And if you're in dating app as an average black man (you're bleeped if you're ugly), you'll, 90% of the time be swept left over.

Hence, many Nigerian guys are frustrated and won't talk about it

Don't believe the stupid lies we peddle on here about white woman loving black for our dick game. It's a lie. If you ain't 100% attractive to her, your dick game doesn't matter. You need to be tall too, because their men are really tall. You can't be 5"9 and be expecting any reasonable result scoring a white chic, it ain't happening

Lies, lies and lies. I live and roll with ballers. The wives are crying and reporting to pastors.

ATL was a place for free ‘ps’…Toop Lounge too. EST 2020, La Shish and Festac Lounge too…All in the GTA.

We have many women to ‘create moments’ with, it’s the time and the wives that limit us.

If you are lonely and desperate, get on Seeking Arrangements…You will be overwhelmed.

Like all things women, budget $100-200 per experience.

That obi will win rivers is a fait acconpli but by how many votes is the issue of contest.wike is clearly fighting pro atiku groups and voters in rivers.the 200k polling unit aides is meant to prevent people from voting atiku.most of atiku's supporters or henchmen in rivers are unfortunately from ikwerre where wike hold sway.the rivers campaign dg maeba is from ogoni where magnus controls.the sekibos are from okrika where patience,Evans bipi and ateke tom are pro wike.secondus is from andoni LGA and tele ikuru is ready to deal with him.based on the above,I dont see how atiku will get 25% or exceed 100k votes.less I forget,hon dagogo is also supporting atiku but is hiding.

For tinubu asari dokubo is fully supporting him and he controls half of kalabari.ex apc chair flag amachree controls the other half of kalabari plus the apc candidate tonye cole is from here.magnus Abe the sdp candidate dominates ogoni which gives bloc votes and is in alliance with tinubu.the minister of state environment hon odum UDI controls abolga and will deliver here.the chairman of uniport gov council sen uchendu will try to deliver emohua as chidi Lloyd will be neutral.hon wihioka will try to deliver ikwerre LGA as the chair nwanosike will be neutral.hon Ephraim nwuzi will bring votes from etche land while hon promise dike will try to deliver oyigbo..

Obi win Rivers? Never! You are always speculating with emotions. Stop reading social media posts to gauge political patterns.

zumbigbo:
Bros, no vex. Nigerians are hard wired to fight against the truth. This is why we elect agberos and unrepentant liars into the most coveted political positions in Nigeria.

Thank you, bro.

This Guy is a scammer!! The whole 15 Nigerians bought house within 2-3 years of landing ??

Now you want to help random nairalanders come to Canada and buy their own house within 2-3 years

I smell scam

Keep lying to your self

For bankers, some of the friends that are Vice Presidents of Canadian banks include (deleted the names after awhile for privacy). Add them on LinkedIn and mention me. They are busy guys, but will happily help you with information about working in the banking sector here.

Tradinggiant:
move on Guy .. don't quote me again na..

Take your scam elsewhere and get off my mention

I hope Seun will create a premium group to keep idiots like you in your frustrated and retarded class. You are insulting someone who is more educated than your father.

I had to shut you up. I hope you got some screenshots.

I run a progressive law firm in the Greater Toronto. Commenting here doesn’t mean I am as jobless as you. Stop imposing the darkness and failures of your life on helpless and desperate Nigerians.

I CANNOT help anyone to move to Canada. I have hundreds of family members to worry about. But, just like JustWise and others did for us a few years ago, I can create time once in awhile to answer questions and offer guidance. I have been doing that and will continue, no matter what morons like you try to do to overshadow truth with your ignorance and bile.

All the best!

Tradinggiant:
Why are you so desperate to convince me You're a scammer and please rest !!!
DON'T ever quote me to send edited trash again !!!

slowpoke! You call people names and can’t stand the truth. Add me on LinkedIn or check Google. I can change your life with my insights!

Tradinggiant:
Rest IJN

It’s called integrity. Not everyone is jobless or lies. This forum helped me years ago, I comment sometimes to help others. Some reached out and I shared my little insights. I hope it helped them.

Tradinggiant:
Oga rest please.. Don't quote me again.

Continue deceiving people you can decieve

Here is my card. Satisfied?Loool! I will delete in a minute.

Tradinggiant:
Why not do it here like here ?? Why DM ??



Continue lying

Put your business card here and I will put mine within a minute. We can delete after 5 minutes. I am waiting!�

Tradinggiant:
Story Story Story.

I still wonder what you guys gain in lying on this forum.

All of you 15 Nigerians bought house within 2-3 years .

Your lie too much

Many Nigerians who landed in 2017-2018 bought homes in Milton,Brampton, Mississauga, Hamilton, Oshawa, Water Down et al in 2020/early 2021. I did and I know more than 30 who did.

Looooool!

I DO NOT want to help Nigerians to come to Canada. I am experienced and kind enough to answer questions, even if slowly.

Tradinggiant:
the kind of story you tell the Gullible.
You didn't buy Lamborghini also ?? How about Rolls Royce ??

This is the problem: everyone is not as poor, visionless and unserious as you. People are achieving far more than you have and can do.

Perhaps, you want to dm me, we verify our bonafides, check our facts on Zoom or Google meet?

I am sure you will be so embarrassed and humiliated by what you will see.

Australia says HIIIII ..
even folks in UK and Germany makes more money than those in Canada !!!

This is the kind of nonsense that make people share little or nothing with those who need credible guidance here.

How many Nigerians have permanent residence or German citizenship? What jobs do they have for Nigerians in Germany? Factory jobs

Most of them have been running to the UK to do security jobs or work as teachers and nurses earning 28-32k pounds.

I lived, studied and worked in the UK for (edited for privacy) years. Held research positions in Germany and Hungary. (Edited for privacy)

I have friends in Australia fighting to come here.

I do and have friends who earn 7-10k monthly after tax from single jobs as lawyers, BAs, academia, AML/Compliance Analysts/Managers and in IT too. Do you or your friends in Australia make that?

I came and lived in a community with other Nigerian PRs. 15 of us bought our homes in the Greater Toronto Area within 2-3 years of landing in Canada.

In the UK, I was living in a small room in a shared flat with my wife and son after first and advanced degrees from its best unis and 11 years. So, shut up if you don’t have the comparative insights to guide others. (Edited for privacy/security)

Ignorance is bad. Adding arrogance to it is stupidity.

The only reason I comment on posts OCCASIONALLY is to help people who genuinely want to come to Canada. Silly heads like you makes it worthless to do so.

I am too busy to argue with morons who assume that anyone who comments here is their mate or a lowlife like them.

Canadian hopefuls

It's a nice country....

Tax over there is high...

Not that bad. Of course, provincial taxes are lower in Alberta et al than Ontario.

The taxes give you much more in return. Children and family benefits here are higher than anywhere else. The FG just started giving $600 to parents for children’s dental costs.

Outside the US, you will make more money in Canada as an immigrant than any other Western country. Also, it is easier to settle in culturally and immigration-wise than most.

Tinubu can't get 75%.highest he will get is 50%

We shall compare notes sooner. 60-70%.

garfield1:
Ombugadu is even pro wike.pdp and labour will share from same vote pool

Yes! I see the APC getting 75% from there. Your analysis of Tinubu’s chances in the North surprised me. He will do far better than that 1000%.

BlazinGlory40:
Nasarawa has never been the stronghold of APC at the presidential level. Buhari only managed to edge out atiku last time and it was the only time he won the state.

Because the current APC Chair was the PDP strongman controlling the state politics for many years-1999 until the Akwe Doma years. For the first time, the 3 living governors of the state are on one side. David Ombuagu can’t do much to help Atiku.
