Don't despair !
It can never be too late to succeed and there is no age limit in which one can be successful.
There are no limitations to success, the possibilities are endless.
It is all in your mind that it'll be hard to succeed because you didn't complete your studies .

start from somewhere! don't be ashamed to learn from people younger than you, in fact forget about your age! it's just a number. There are jobs that require maturity, I believe you can fit into those roles.
Here are a few suggestions (there is no easy road): If you are still interested in going to school, I would suggest you try national open university and work part-time. In Nigeria, the type of certificates don't really matter, it is capability and skills that carry the day (most times).
If you have SSCE, I would advise that you get a driving job. surprisingly the best paying jobs in Nigeria for SSCE holders are driving jobs. Some drivers earn as much as N100k, even more than some PhD degree holders. Then enrol part-time for a course at national open university in the city where you work and live. If you feel driving is too stressful, then the second option that can give you enough flexibility to pursue an academic degree is a security job. The best security Jobs pay about N50k, enough for you to sustain yourself and academic pursuits.
if you have OND, then you can get a good enough job to sustain yourself. You can search for this company called envio. They will sponsor you to school while you work for them, but you must be willing to go to school.
If you are not interested in school anymore and feel like you are too old to be in a classroom for any reason, I suggest you learn a trade or acquire a vocational skill. I know a certain mechanic that earns my monthly income in a week! and he no go school. learn something valuable in your vicinity, be diligent in your work, and God will bless you at the right time with success. God bless YOU. |

There is wealth in the soil. Turn to agriculture.
Sincerely speaking if you are wholeheartedly invested, you will make it. I suggest you go into cultivating cash crops then use the income & start a poultry specifically layers. At your free time, acquired a skill. Go for shoe making, tailoring or whatever that deals with clothing.
Like someone said, its never too late.
Prepare to suffer now and reap the reward later.
Goodluck. Thanks Alot! |

[b][/b] Please I need your suggestions my fellow nairalnaders, I dropped out of school 8yrs ago cos I could not afford sponsoring myself... Ever since I have been jumping from one career/hustle to another, I have been stagnant for quite some years... I have no money, no home, no family to support me, please where do I start from?
I will turn 30 by June, I have absolutely nothing to show for my years of struggles.
Please your suggestions will highly appreciated...
What do I do now as its still my utmost desire to turn things around for myself and that of my younger ones and Mum.
