Dear sir,
I'm not too vast in that aspect of visa issuance, but one thing I can tell you is this, if you meet all the requirements, you will surely get your visa. Again, with all these factors you mentioned to your advantage, you have a better chance than someone who doesn't have them at all.
Now, how to you start?
It is pertinent that you make serious research on their requirements. cover every aspect of what they require and prepare thoroughly for the interview after gathering all the likely questions you may be asked.
..I will help you out in my little way on that path once I subscribe to my internet bundle.
God bless you.

thanks for the info, as you said,still waiting for the d additional info. JUSTWISE read in copy

Dear Funkebaby, trust you are doing great. I intend to travel as a tourist. The transactions usually occur @ the end of every month and ranges from 30 -150k. Please does it really matter since the cash goes in an out? If it matters, is there a better way of explaining the inflow/outflow cos I ustand that giving out loan for interest is illegal in europe.

Please assist.

Eke40seven:

Dear sir,
It could have been way more helpful if the countries you travelled to include US, Canada or any Shengen countries within the last 24 months, although the UK there is an advantage.
However, this are the requirements for travel visa as provided on their site

Please note that the application will only be accepted when it is complete, i.e. when all the required documents are attached. Should there be documents missing the application will be rejected and the applicant has to apply afresh for a new appointment.

As regards the interview questions, you should know this , from the little chit chat I had with an interviewee at the embassy
1. Facts about Germany
2. Very plausible reasons for travelling, e.g wedding, thanksgiving, etc
3. The relationship with your guest
4. Your profession
5. Your account, properties and other things that ties you to this country
6. Facts about the city where your host resides
7. Everything about your host from name, address, marital status, profession, place of work, income, etc

I will update the post when I remember more questions.
Hope you find it useful.
Good luck.
