It is hard to be a freelancer, as nobody knows you yet ! You need to build your portfolio.

I would advise you do an Internship with a company to strengthen & solidify your skills.

cruchenutii:
Yes, I am.

There is a very high demand for Females in this Industry, Survey says there are 92% of Male programmers in the World. Very few females.
So companies are trying to balance it. The demand is way too higher than supply.

Opportunities are endless for Females. So If you are not lazy & can put in work 4 hours every day for 6 months. You are fine.

You can also become a female programmer & still maintain your fresh feminine look, and stylish dress sense with nice hair. Nothing wrong with that, you don't have to be manly.

Please take a look at Lyndsey Scott who is a Model & a programmer (IOS) , https://stackoverflow.com/users/2274694/lyndsey-scott

Stay blessed.

cruchenutii:
Sista, If I should advise you like you advised me on this same Forum. You should learns the basics of Programming First.

1. Conditional statements. 2. Loops 3. Basic Operations 4. Logical thinking 5. Features of Object Oriented programming like Inheritance, Polymorphism, Abstraction, Encapsulation.

Further more, after learning all these. You should strive to learn IOS development for iPhone instead of Android.

The platform is more stable & Pay is relative 25% better globally.

Also Females have more advantage now in this field as at now. People will argue with this. But (If you know, You know)

77FOT:
Thanks a lot.

Your points are very revealing....

I have never thought of taking advantage of strategic seasonal bulk buying.

Waooo.

donniemc:
You sound like my mum. Thanks for the concern. However i believe that "He who has not found what he can die for is not fit to live". Honestly am not doing this for myself alone. In the future i want my life to be a source of inspiration to younger generations of Nigerian. I want them to know that they can take risks pursue their dreams and become successful without bowing to societal pressure and beliefs e.g (You cant become successful unless you get a certificate e.t.c)

Anyways,
If you want to get started with learning programming you can take this simple interactive course at:

Thanks again for the concern

donniemc:
Because i wanted to! and i really did not see the usefulness of a certificate!

donniemc:
Did you even read what i wrote

The averagely successful programmer in America makes $120,000 per year (before taxes)

The averagely successful programmer in Nigeria makes about about $20,000 per year (7.5 million)

Meanwhile,

The averagely successful Android / iPhone/ios programmer anywhere in the world makes close to $400,000 per year



That's 3 times more than what an averagely successful programmer makes in America!.

The moral lesson here is to try and publish as many Android / Ios app you can as a programmer which would in turn increase your chances of becoming an averagely successful Android/ ios Programmer so that you can earn $400,000 per year!.


Unfortunately,
Nigeria has only a handful of Android / ios programmers (less than 100). majority of the programmers in Nigeria are web programmers!(at least 99.6%).They code with languages like Php(Laravel), Asp.net, node.js et.c....these web languages can help you get a few freelance jobs but ultimately you would not make as much money as even an average mediocre Android developer.

This is why developers in Nigeria are struggling!!. And that is why in my previous post i suggested that anyone considering to learn programming should just learn Android /ios programming (kotlin or swift).

Believe me, there are Flashlight apps on the Google Play Store that make more than $3,000 per day

Here is a link to one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.peacock.flashlight

Nothing,
Absolutely nothing stops you from creating one yourself!. infact you can even just buy the source code to one flashlight app and publish it on the Playstore. Here is a link to pruchase the source code:

https://www.chupamobile.com/android-full-applications/android-flashlight-app-962


Again,
Am an Android programmer,I dropped out of school, i have over 60 apps on the Play store. I make quite a lot on the play store!. I wont trade my Nigerian driver's license for an America citizenship!!

donniemc:
Again!,
Maybe you did not read what i wrote!!

Ok,
here we go again,

Below is a link to an Android app (Flashlight app) that makes atleast $3,000 per day
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.peacock.flashlight

2)If truly you are a programmer. you would know that you don't need an ounce of talent to make a flashlight app!. Heck you can even just purchase source of Apps from www.chupamobile.com, skin them, add Admob ads and publish them on the Play store.


Experimentally,
If you have just 50 apps on the play store. And you make an average of $10 per day on each app. well thats $500 per day(N200k per day)
So its not about talent its just about exposure and knowing what to do!!

3)Like i said, most programmers in Nigeria are Web developers, the few Android developers we have have less than 3 apps on the Play store. infact most of them have more medium.com blog post about Android than they have Android apps on the Play store . You can't be successful like that!. ignorance is the bane here!!.

Like i said,
If you have 50 apps on the Play store at least you would be averaging between $300 - $500 per day. No matter how powerful your village people are!, they can stop that daily income!.

I just exposed a powerful secret! to you, you can argue with it, or get rich off it!

Goodluck again!

Hey, I just did this & this is my result

Introverted Sensing Thinking Judging (Introverted Sensing with Extraverted Thinking)

The Duty Fulfiller...


More

Your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things rationally and logically. You are a quiet and reserved individual; you are interested in security and a peaceful living...

I personally think the words are too kind, they're probably not telling me the whole truth OR being too subtle about it.

oh ok lol. my bad. suggest a better one. i shall have you know that one asked me 90 questions lol

sukkot:
I will take it tomorrow. looks like it is going to require more of my attention than I can give it now.

sukkot:
ohhhh ok because when i checked the meaning of sanguine and phlegmatic it said otherwise. apparently a phlegmatic person is >>>>

phlegmatic
flɛɡˈmatɪk/Submit
adjective
(of a person) having an unemotional and stolidly calm disposition.
"the phlegmatic British character"

and you are very correct, i stay out of trouble, i dont like drama trouble or wahala of any kind. i like peace. who doesnt right ? lol . well i am not that emotional-i dont see that as a virtue-especially for a man lol. i consider myself friendly, funny, used to be outgoing but after the internet era i have become like everybody else in the world a homebody-always on nairaland if i am not out and about doing my hustling and daily chores

sukkot:
well being sanguine and phlegmatic comes from being tested and purified and refined in the fire of affliction. I have passed through that torturous fire. it stabilises you emotionally. it also helps knowing the spiritual knowledge of how this world functions. when you combine those two you become sanguine and phlegmatic. nothing can ever rattle you again. some say you become less emotional and less empathetic but i see those two qualities as weaknesses anyway. you cant be letting good or bad news affect you emotionally. you have to be solid. so yeah it is what it well hun, thanks for the kind words

two nice words by the way lol. had to google the meaning to be sure it is what i thought it was

sukkot:
sure. why not. if thats what yall wanna call it lol. yes i believe in God and the bible

sukkot:
1- if you dont recognize the person or its someone you dont know at least you will have the description. there are messages in physical appearances

2- if its an ex ? its a dog returning to its own vomit meaning you are returning to a low state as ordained by the gods

3-if its a relative ? thats incestry meaning someone is ordained for self destruction ( self destruction could be in the form of the choices you make that would destroy you )

sukkot:
it could be. not the sexual act itself but the symbolism of the sexual act. the mesage in it. because there is a message to it. and to get the message i will need to know who was the person they had sex with in the dream. description of the person. because in that sexual act did 2 become 1 and in knowing who this person is we can get the spiritual significance of having sex with that person and who you became 1 with. and then i can tell you the reason for the misfortune

sukkot:
lol we are all spirit na. our flesh is just a covering. when you sleep your spirit gets to wander around and receives messages or activates old messages and this will be your dream. but the flesh is just dust. ashes to ashes and dust to dust. it is the spirit that is moving the dust called your body. so while we operate in these dust bodies yet we are spirits, and your spirit spouse will come in a dust body too.

sukkot:
well i suppose if the spirit husband or wife is leading you to destruction by having you indulge in destructive behavior that is wrecking your life they can be termed as succubus and incubus. if they are inducing you to destruction. like how bobby brown and whitney houston were to each other till she got consumed with the drugs and destroyed and died.

how to know if you have a spirit husband or wife ? if your life starts changing drastically when you meet them. deep attachment because it is a spiritual connection ordained so there will be an obsessive connection of sorts maybe extreme jealousy, you cant live with the person but at the same time you cant live without the person like a connection you know is destroying you but you cant get away from. they will be stuck with you till the mission ordained celestially is accomplished etc

sukkot:
you cant. it is set in stone. its destiny. karma or blessing from how you have lived your past life. you can start by living a righteous life so that in next life you will be given a spirit husband that will bless you and not someone sent to destroy or kill you.

sukkot:
yes the spiritual protection from God and the angels is removed and that would be a fallen state ( so that answers the question about explain a fallen state )

spirit husband or wife is someone whose destiny has been linked with you in the spirit world before you were born and you will end up running into each other ( the spirit will bring you both together ) . such people were put into your sphere to either kill and destroy you or to complement and bless you.

sukkot:
its esoteric mythology which means the dark desires which take over you when you are in a low / fallen state. when your protection has been removed, the dark demonic desires that consume you. could be drugs, homosexuality etc etc

Dafa:
To be sincere, I feel 3 months isn’t workable in a country like Nigeria, what housing means to a Nigerian is quite different to countries that pay rent monthly and quarterly. I think the year 1 thing should stay..... when tenants owing know quit notice lasts 6months, they’ll just pay 6months and spend the remains 6months on quit notice

sukkot:
hmmm 72 and 27 in texas. yup. meanwhile nelson mandela released after 27 years. olajumoke the breadseller discovered at 27. fela married 27 wives. jimi hendrix died 27. amy whinehouse 27. jim morrison 27. kurt cobain 27. janis joplin 27. ubiquitous spiritual esoterism
