Harvard business school graduate.

a crook claiming to be a business man, he bought nicon during obj privatization programme , A National Insurance company, used it to collect loans from banks, liquidated the company and sell everything sellable in it, carry the loan taken from banks and run away.

No physical thing on ground, this guy bought pegout car from France with loan and shared it to graduates on interest under his company name of global fleet, many graduates fell prey, their salary was 220,000 and higher percentage of the salary was been deducted for the car loans, many of them were later put on probation and they lost their cars, the ones who made it out of the company with the car diverted into taxi Kabubkabu business ,
He’s a crook

That bank should be Bank PHB right? I used to trip for their staff then ehn...Pegout 307 design.

So loan is an achievement. Loan you will repay? Abi you don't know you can get same loan from microfinance Bank?

Don't compare microfinance bank interest rate to government agric interest loan. Whatever form of loan you get from MFB can never be compared with govt loans. Dem no bi same sir. MFB interest is killing. Government agric loans are given moratorium of 6months or more. Majority of those that got the Nirsal loans haven't started paying sef, that's if they'll even pay. I prefer thrift to any Bank loan sef.

I was like 39/40 when I created profile and applied. I used second language to get points.

Age is a factor for sure but you can make it if you got language or rely on Provincial nomination, etc.

Thanks for the update

You can make 1M every month with 500 layers just that it won't be the total profit at the end of each day after deducting expenses

Drop your analysis. 1m monthly without removing cost of feeds, medications and other running cost isn't even possible.

The analysis is there and it is just for educational purposes to make decisions. However, the most important thing is the article can be a better guide.

The article is there and beautifully writter, Yes, but analysis is totally misleading due to the wrong facts stated. A writer should put out fact. That analysis can put intending farmers into debts and regrets.

Poster, be careful of getting advise from people whom their parents are paying their rents or still living with their families. Your expenses is not over the roof at all, majority of people on the thread don't even stock up their own food, while some are living abroad. 60k utilities and 100k feeding can be looked into and reduced. Don't eat out as much as you would. You need to inform your parents & sibling that you earn way less than you think, therefore their monthly allowance can be reduced.

I like your submission. Things are really expensive now mehn. 1 Titus fish is over 1k and will be cut max into 4 pieces, sometimes 3 pieces sef. If he's to eat 3 meals daily, he'll be spending 30k monthly on fish alone, meat and chicken are even way expensive, you'll buy grains, beverages alone fit gulp 10k (Milo, coffee and milk), buy cereals, provisions (peanut butter, toothpaste, groundnut/cashew nut, cashewnut na 2k-2.5k and I fit finish 1 bottle within 3days, other provisions wey u go buy still dey). 6kg gas monthly is within 5-5.5k, what I do if fill 12.5kg for 9300 and use for 2months plus, a bag of pure water is 250-300 and can be finished within 2-3days. The truth is if we're to eat well, that 100k na just manage for a month, though you'll still have some food stuff spill over to the next month. I avoid beef now cos of the cost, too expensive. 3k beef no go pass 10 piece if dem cut am moderately, not big like party own oo grin. what I do is buy broiler and slaughter whenever fish don tire me. OP come dey stay Abuja join. Imagine op eating outside, he'd even spend more.
Feeding well is relative thou, so make everybody chop according to their pocket jare.

Good analysis but practically you can't make 1m monthly from 500 layers. Even without removing their feeding cost, it's still not practicable now consider the feeding which gulps about 60-70% of running cost and see what's left.

I got a 2005 model UK for 850k January 2020 later converted to left hand drive

Good for you (maybe cos na righty and probably manual drive) got my 2001/2002 Corolla, naija used for 800k June 2019, was cleared from port according to the custom documents around Nov 2017, so it was less than 2years used in naija. It was sold at that price based on the relationship between myself and the seller (area brother shit). Other used neat ones I saw were close to 1m sef, was almost picking one up at Ibadan for 920k while Tokunbo was sold around 1.2-1.3m, almost same range with 1998-2001 camry. That car is almost 2m if not over today sef.

tokubo of it was 500k to 700k in 2013

I won't speak further on this. Go and do your findings. We got a 2001 Camry for 1.250m around 2011/2012. Those cars were never cheap. You can use Nairaland Auto section for your research. Go check 2011 car adverts.

Some people are not aware that there was a time in Nigeria that things were relatively cheap. For instance, the popular Toyota Corolla used for Uber goes for about 500,000 - 700,000 around this time.
I'm enjoying your story, but there was never a time 2003-2007 Toyota Corolla Toks was sold less than 1m. Infact a senior colleague bought his 06 Corolla around 2011 for 1.650m and Camry 2001 for 1.250m. Even the 1998-2002 Corolla hover around 850-1.1m.
The cars available within your quoted price na golf 2, Nissan Almera, Primera, Carina E, II, Sunny, etc cos those were the cheap cars then. Camry and Corolla don cost no bi today.

The best profession to me o

Na university professors, those guys life too soft. The only downside about it is that the money comes during old age after you don use all your youthful years take suffer

The figures quoted for University lecturers are false. No Professor in Nigeria Federal Uni net 500k after all deductions, infact it's less than 450k, that's why they're clamoring for a review after over 14years of earning same salary. It's sad they're not smiling at that old age.

If you want the fast life, with money, go for the Data Analyst job, opportunities abounds. But if you want it slow and steady, you can reason lecturing, just know that It'll take you 12years (Senior Lecturer) if you're employed with your Bsc and 9years with Msc in a College of Education to start earning over 200k. Lecturing job na advanced teaching jobs for naija oo, it's only for those that wants to impact and not make huge money.

once you close 30 you start losing points. Those that applied in 2017 to 2019 were not that affected as scores low then. Today its now very competitive

Thanks ednut1. Don't want to waste resources, I'd be 33years by Oct with over 5years experience in Public Relations at a Federal Tertiary Institution, also with Msc(Mass Comm.) while wifey is 28years, Bsc (Maths & Special Education), preparing to take the TRCN examination. No relevant work experience in teaching cos she has a fashion store. Having gone through the released NOC 2021(1), I observed teaching is highly sort after and special educators aswell (major concern is lack of teaching experience for her) while my field is also listed.
I intend applying, but the age issue is worrisome also if she's to apply as the primary applicant, she lacks the 2years minimum experience required.
Please what do you suggest with the above situation?

I have only been in the UK for 3 months and I have sent 1.2m naira home. If I was still in Nigeria I wouldn't have been able to send anything with my 95k salary. My dad n mom would still be sick and we would have to beg rich relatives to assists.
Also I have spent £1300 in bringing my spouse here so don't be naive.
Just migrate in the right way.

Words of motivation. I'd like to ask, did you migrate via student route or which of them? I'll see that wifey apply come February next year once that teachers application starts.

Thanks for your response. I have decided on the Supreme cus of my weight. Will the 6 by 6 by 8 be okay? Dats, will the 8 inch mattress be OK? I plan on putting it on a bedframe, seeing some places online that they are saying the 8 inches won't be OK for a couple

I got the 6×6×8 and that's what I've been using with my wife. Couldn't sleep on it in the first 5weeks before I got used to the firmness. Go for whatever inches you can afford. Na money go determine, if the 8" no good Vitafoam no go do am na.
