Negative politics can be destructive. Imagine if everyone actually screws over everyone just to get ahead, the workplace would be a mess, full of strife and hate. You must not play dirty in order to have a successful career

People get screwed over everyday.

The battle for the spots on the highest paying jobs in Nigeria is a very tough one. There are quite a number of lucrative jobs paying good salaries or other remunerations. But with proven research by various job and career portals and information from industry watchers and insiders, the information below shows 5 of the highest paying jobs in Nigeria and how much they pay on the average, although not in any particular order.

If you are a young person and quickly want to build a strong financial base going through the job route, you might need to consider a career in any of these 5 jobs that pay very good salaries.

Here are 5 of the highest paying jobs in Nigeria:

IT/Telecom Engineers
This is probably the most lucrative job in today’s world, not because it necessarily pays the highest remuneration, but because there is nothing you do today that does not have the IT side. Hence, those who have developed themselves appropriately in whatever capacity will always be in high demand and command high pay. In an organization, software and hardware administration falls within the purview of these professionals and they sometimes also train other staff members. As the industry grows stronger, there will be more demand for professionals in this highly skilled sector. Did I hear you ask, how much they earn? They earn between N3.5m – N7million annually. I guess someone needs to reboot his/her mind or probably load fresh software.

Which one catches your fancy and you would like to be a player in if you are not already doing so? Go ahead and be the best that you can and as the saying goes, “The Sky will be your starting point.”

Aerospace Engineering:
There is hardly any quality, functioning aerospace engineering and technical department in Nigerian universities. Aerospace engineers working in the country’s aviation sector got their professional and technical trainings outside the shores of the country and get paid handsomely. They are most likely licensed aircraft engineers and its a tasking profession that requires continuous technical expertise and sound judgement. Pilots earn well but do not come near the pay packet of aeronautical engineers.

Production/ Petroleum Engineers:
Highly skilled engineers in the various production aspects of the petroleum industry are among the best paid professional careers in the country. IT is a very technical job and requires a lot of time that must be dedicated to reading and studying in order to acquire necessary certifications to practice. And then those in the Oil and Gas industry whether up or down stream command the highest pay of them all. They take home a pay package of about N3.5m – N6.5m annually, which is good in an economy like ours that is not so stable and also still considered as growing.

Commercial Airline Pilots:
Dominated by expatriates, pilots in the country are still among top earners. Indications are that as more airlines join the airspace in Nigeria to make things even more interesting and competitive well trained and skilled pilots will command more pay as they will be in more demand. Pilots just like medical doctors have a high degree of responsibility for the lives of passengers in the plane; hence they should be highly skilled and trained personnel who know exactly what they are doing. In Nigeria, they earn from about N3.4m up to N7.4 million and more in some cases even more.

Hackers and Programmers:
I can imagine you have a grin on your face. Hackers?! Well, maybe you don’t know that there are ethical hackers, just as you have non-ethical hackers. The internet world is growing and more and more programmers will be needed who are well-versed in the programming. Although in Nigeria finding ethical hackers is still hard to come by in Nigeria. And of course organizations are coughing out millions to have their websites secured from non-ethical hackers. Salary range is between N2.8m – N6.48million annually.

How did this trash even make the front page?

Part 2

On his way back to Houston, he thought about how to use what he witnessed to HIS advantage.

His first action was to throw out all his indicators, forecasts and technical analysis. He told me that there is no analysis, indicator or other program now or in the future, that can analyse or predict human behaviour and specifically, human emotions. He had seen for himself that there was nothing technical or logical in how the floor traders (now better known as Market Movers) traded and therefore any analysis or thinking from “off the floor” was an absolute waste of time.

His second action was how to beat “those whores” on the floor as he called them. He said he thought over just about every scenario imaginable and just as he was running out of ideas, it came to him. If you can’t beat, them join them although as a very devout and God fearing Christian, he didn’t think it was ethical. Unable to find another alternative, he decided he had no options left but to try and do, “off the floor” what they did on the floor.

From this came his very simple method:

Buy when it goes up and sell when it goes down.

He went on to make $millions doing this and I subsequently learned he passed away a very rich and contented man knowing that he had beaten the “whores” at their own game.

I learned all this in a few telephone conversations with him but he lost his patience with me when I still questioned his method. He wouldn’t answer my calls so I reverted back to faxes. Again, I can’t remember it word for word but I sent a simple fax saying:

“How do you know when to stop buying?”

On the same fax was his handwritten reply, “When it stops going up.”

So I wrote on it, “How do you know when it stops going up?” His handwritten reply, “When it starts going down.”

So I wrote on it, “How do you know when it stops going up and starts going down?”

His handwritten reply, “When people start selling.”

After going round like this in riddles, I pleaded with him to “just give it to me straight”.

He sent a fax saying this would be his last communication with me and that if I didn’t understand how to buy when it goes up and sell when it goes down, I had no business trading.

His final paragraph was one which I ignored, like everything else he told me, until a couple of years ago when I realized what a dumb, stupid, arrogant, stubborn idiot I had been:

He said I would only be wrong twice using his simple method:

“Once when you buy at the top and once when you sell at the bottom.”

I just ignored this as a smart – ass answer but still tried to do what he said. Unfortunately, and as Sod’s law dictates, I tried to do it in a consolidation and lost on every trade which had me buying when I should have been selling etc.

I tried and lost again and then eventually lost my way in the quest for the Holy Grail in Indicator Land.

Now, with all my experience and thousands of lost $ behind me, the light came on!

My understanding of what he was telling me is this:

Buy when prices are moving up. Buy each retrace/dip. Keep buying until the last retrace becomes a trend change which is the one trade you lose on.

Sell when prices are moving down. Sell each retrace/rally. Keep selling until the last retrace becomes a trend change which is the second trade you lose on.

I have not traded like this as I have my own method/style now but on the look backs I have done it works very well. Obviously, the trendier the price, the better it works.

In my later communications with other floor traders, I told them about Dr. Joe and what he told me, and asked them if it was true. As you would expect, each and everyone vehemently rejected it as absolute rubbish.

Sometimes I wonder if old Dr. Joe was smoking something but then when I see those long legged neutral dojis before a significant move, I know he was right.

Thank you, Dr. Joe

I found this interesting......

Dr. Joe used to work for NASA as a nuclear physicist on the Space Program and was a Professor, PhD with just about every physics and maths qualifications there are or you could think of. He got fed up of the bureaucracy and politics at NASA and as a part time investor in stocks , decided to go full time as, in his own words, “the price cycles are just some sort of fancy sine waves with decay and acceleration distorting them and should be real easy to plot and forecast.”

Well after over 5 years doing triple integrated, double differentiated Fourier transforms, harmonic frequency analysis, fractal filters and theorems and goodness knows what else that, although I have a PhD, just ran circles around me. He said he got so frustrated that although he could plan and predict space craft trajectories, orbits, landings etc, he could not forecast even one bar of prices into the future. Not one to quit, he decided that there was some external force that he was not taking into consideration and the only place it could be was on the trading floor where the action took place.

Through his connections, he eventually got an invitation to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and was shown the futures or commodities pit (can’t remember which). His sole purpose of going there was as a spy or detective to find out exactly how things worked so that he could write it into his software. He told me he was “amazed and dumbfounded” at what he saw and heard which forever changed his life. (I had all this written up in my trading notes in my files but I can’t find them so I’m using this post to “replenish my notes”).

He arrived at the pit before opening time and saw all the floor traders congregated together in a meeting. He saw this as strange as he thought they were out and out competitors with each other.

What he saw in the first 15 to 30 minutes he would never have believed even if his best friend had told him. At the open, the overnight trades, which were long positions, were put through but he detected the traders entering them were giving signals to the other traders. After the orders were put through there was “nothing” – they just waited to see how the market reacted to those orders.

He then observed what he thought were illegal practices but later learned it to be what actually goes on each and every day. During this “dead” time, the floor traders were reviewing their orders in the pipeline and then on a given signal, a group started selling followed by another group. Then when a certain lower price had been reached, another signal was given and the same groups then bought back amongst themselves. He later learned this was called “Running the Stops” and what they had done was found out where all the orders were, which were below lows, swing lows and elsewhere, and just driven the price down to fill them and take them out so that they had a clean order sheet! Not satisfied with that, they then collectively took the price back to where it opened!

After this and now with the market moving, orders started to come in and when a large order came in from a bank, fund or other large institution, the trader with the order gave a signal before entering it. After entering it, the traders went quiet again. They were looking to see how the market reacted to that order. When they saw more buy orders coming in, they just bought more and more and kept on buying until a signal from a trader that he had a large sell order. Again the sell order was entered and the traders went quiet as they waited for a reaction from the market. He learned that the floor traders were waiting to see whether the sell order was going to be accepted as profit taking or full blown shorting. He said this went on all day long with the floor traders just “piggy-backing” on which ever way the market moved. He said he could see no skills or qualifications (other than being a LovePeddler – a very rich LovePeddler, he said) whatsoever in what the floor traders did.

The balance between

Fear & Greed

The pain and the suffering and the actual. The resurrection was the miracle afterwards.

Christians believe this a sacrifice and always will.

Non Christians may or may not believe but I dont see why they care.

Everyone knows this and by reading the comments here it is clear that some sad people are only trying to draw out Christians to argue and attempt to[b] ridicule[/b] them or theor beliefs. SHAME on them.

Perhaps those who dont believe should state their religous beliefs or otherwise so they can be attacked?

Ridicule?
Sir, asking you questions about what you believe is not ridiculing. You would only feel ridiculous when the beliefs you hold are yeah......ridiculous. But then Rilllaaaakkksssss

sonOfLucifer:

Uncle Chris long time. Hope you're good. MuskeetMuskeeto.

Mosi Mosi!

Mosi you don wear another name cloth. How market now?

KoloOyinbo:


Lol. I doubt that you were just asking a simple question! If so you are the first I have seen in this section doing that. Its just part of the game to criticise believers/non believers etc whatever the opposite group is. If you are genuine the are plenty of answers on the net.

Beht it is still a kweshun and this is the internet now abi?

Just answer na.

KoloOyinbo:


Go ask any Christian IF you are preoared to accept their answer! You just want to insult believers. What a sad person!

See me see wahala o simple kweshun.

Long thread can someone tell me who the sacrifice was for? Who needed Someone to Die?
You come die so that another dimension of you can forgive man for sins committed against you
E don they wey 419 start.

Lol Nigerians.
Smh.

Hi guys,

I am not a programmer and I am not going to try to be one. I have an excel sheet that does some calculations for me at work that I would like to convert into a web based application so it can be used by more people. Now in the end I would have to contract someone to do but first I need ideas on how best to approach it so that it is robust enough. What are my options?

1. Is it possible to have the excel sheet in the back end, create like a form on the web which looks like the excel sheet. When the user puts in the required input data it gets copied to the excel sheet which does the calculations back end and then the result is copied from the sheet and displayed on the web app. Is this possible? What are the pros and cons?

2. I seen somewhere about converting it to a VBA but VBA's are buggy, I would like the chosen method to at least allow me update the back end as often as possible.

3. Write an application from scratch. Which will have the ability to perform these calculations and also have a very good aesthetic look and feel.

4. Anything else......


Thanks.

I have a very brilliant and guaranteed investment opportunity I'd love to share with u. With N50,000 capital u are sure of at least N200,000 turn over in less than 6months and around N800,000 in 1 yr. U can actually make more than these figures by applying a strategy I'd share with u if u're interested. I won't ask of one naira from u and if I ever do, totally ignore me. It's a promise.
If u or anyone else who is interested should contact me one 08038536850 via Whatsapp or call so I can add u to our Whatsapp group where u will learn more about this opportunity.

One big problem we have is we rarely have a long term plan. The reason is quite glaring, hunger will not let you see road.
It is very sad that the training most of us get is to slave for other people.....myself inclusive.

But I also understand that a hungry man will always think of his next meal. Therefore, if he needs to eat, if he cannot feed in the short term then yes go to the bank.

If he can, then he needs to sit back and ask where a bank contract worker ends up in the mid to long term.

30 years old man you dey stay under person roof dey complain.
Do you know the meaning of landlord?
You wee nor find work, now dem give you work you complain.

[s]I need your opinions. I and my husband had a huge quarrel days back where we both exchanged words and spoke nasty at each other. However, he went as far as calling me a wh*re. Nobody in this life has ever called me such a derogatory word before. I’m highly offended but I’m not hurt. He also went as far as saying that I don’t know how to have sex and that I’m terrible in bed. Im so pissed off that I have lost all interest in having sex with this man for now.[/s] [size=14pt]This is a man that can barely stand me riding him because he can hardly last 6 mins. I have never reached orgasm with him yet I have always made it a point of duty to never let that distract me.[/size][s] I want to know if I am over reacting by staying away from him and what do you all think of his actions towards me as I see this issue as something that will linger on for a while because I’m finding it hard to forgive him and I’m seriously thinking about constantly cheating on him now that he has called me a who*re[/s]

With regard to intravaginal ejaculation latency time, men typically reach orgasm 5–7 minutes after the start of penile-vaginal intercourse, taking into account their desires and those of their partners, but 10 minutes is also a common intravaginal ejaculation latency time

As always we need to hear the other side of the story first. Then we can start balancing and giving our responses, unless you married a woman with mental issues.

Why on earth is this even in the romance section?
Hiv prevention should be sent to the health section

So let's see, is the OP a medical practitioner? virologist? No he doesn't even frequent the health section to share these his " earth shattering tips"
This write up is a load of crap. Condoms have saved more lives than all these useless mouth talk from people who cannot even sit to proffer solutions to bigger problems like malaria.

Oh and by the way there's new ones which change color when in contact with STI's made by 13 and 14 year olds......una go dey here dey celebrate mediocrity mscheeeeww

I try to only give advice on Nairaland but sometimes, I just want to vent!

You are 23yrs. You met a guy in 2012. That's 2 years ago. You were 21yrs.
You are currently serving. Which means you were seeing the fella while in school. You either married him in school or while serving. Either way, you met, dated, married as the second wife and are contemplating divorce all within a 2 year period! Dang!! Na only you waka come?


Ok. Now my advice.
If you are telling the truth, then your major problem is being impulsive, never thinking through any decision. As such, whatever decision you take will in all likelihood be wrong and will further force you into more impulsive decisions which will only make matters worse.

I don't believe in divorce for any reason. (Seperation is as far as I can go). I don't believe in polygamy either. So all I can say is sit still and think properly. Reason this out. Don't act based on your feelings. They got you here in the first place. Use logic. Not emotions. See what results you end up with.


This is only if you have told us the truth in the first place.

Lmao she should use logic?
Like telling an elephant to use its fangs.

YO yo Yo Yo MAN UP MEHN! Warrahell!

According to what my elder brother told me. He said that the level of discrimination in oil and gas sector is perturbing. Whenever i pay him a visit in his office, i will over heard people gossiping each other base on who earn higher than the other. They compare their houses and cars. Even the INDIANS do treats Nigerians like slaves. Though i would have started working with STERLING GLOBAL OIL AND GAS but i have been told to hold on till january due to a fall in oil price. And moreuver, permanent staff earn higher than contracts staff.

Those Indians are .........

The worst rig I ever worked on back then was an Indian rig.

I changed Majors from Petroleum Engineering to Computer Engineering this year, I'm not sure if that's the right choice yet.


But I certainly don't want My Job opportunities to be tied down to a particular Region. Also, if you harbor Office jobs, this could be for you. There's the issue of overexposure and danger to your sperms, but Fvck your Goldigga on time and you should be okay


Overall The Monetary benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

gentlegenius:

Abraham and Moses were living in the First covenant era. After the coming of Christ, the first covenant was abolished. Jesus gave us a new covenant which doesn't entreat us to kill one another.

So God tells Abraham that the lands of other people belong to him. Then Moses and his crazy band of soldiers go on a rampage killing beheading stoning to death just like ISIS does. Taking slaves and raping them......
God presided over that convenant he has instructed to kill before and he still instructs people to kill.

gentlegenius:

Though, some religious extremists can kill in the name of their religion, But God doesn't instruct Anyone to kill in his name.

I am sure Abraham will disagree with you. Moses and all the others will disagree as well.

Bendzamin:
The bible is a priceless gift from our loving God. It contained many valuable messages and lessons that when applied in our daily lives, our lives will never remain the same. However, reading the bible, understanding it and applying what is being read may be a tedious task for some because they conclude that the bible is a mystery book which can never be understood by common men except the pastors and the likes. Therefore, below are few steps to follow in order to read the bible, enjoy it, extract the lessons therein and apply what you read in your life as well as using it to help others in your neighbourhood.
In order not to bore the reader with many information, I am going to make use of a few bible verses as an example. Before reading, pray to God to give you understanding and insight to what you wants to read, and after careful reading, ask yourself these 3 questions:
1. What does this verse(s) tell me about God?
2. How can I apply this in my life?
3. How can I use this to help others?
Now, lets consider the bible book of Psalms 103:8-10. "Jehovah is merciful and compassionate, slow to anger and abundant in loving kindness. He will not always find fault nor will he stay resentful forever. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor has he repaid us what our errors deserve"
Question 1: what does these verses tell me about God?
These verses show that Jehovah God is a merciful, compassionate and forgiving father.

Why don't you ask the important questions like when was this written and who were they addressing?
Why don't you ask if this was just tradition?
Why don't you check if the historical records actually check out?
