40k USD sef too much. Some are looking for flights just to go back. Go to Milan, around the central stations with lots of African refugees wasting away, or Greece where they sell CD's to tourists, or even Biljmer Arena in Amsterdam, or Germany. These are places I know firsthand, don't know much about the Uk, only visited but I still think it is similar.

I repeat, not 40k, just buy a flight come dash them like 5k usd, then off to Naija de go. Listen to sukkot, he knows what he is saying. If you dont want to end up unfortunately abroad, never come as a visitor.

How you enter determines how far you go. At a minimum, enter as a student, better on a work permit, best is pr, but the VIP of all is to be married to a citizen and enter as a spouse.

In other words I should take the 500K to 1.5K job and forget Canada. Well, I can assure you I'll never forget Caca. Canada, oh Canada!

SunMusk:
With what I know now I will stay in Nigeria with the 40k, are you kidding me. Even if I don't know anything I will still take the 40k.

So that was hypothetical. This is real life. And given Tinubu, removal of subsidy and all, do you still feel same?

sukkot:
if i do leave nigeria it would be for a black country. like say ghana or rwanda. am done with white man country

My bros that was hypothetical, this is my REAL life. What would be your advice as a well-traveled guy?

otunbadan:
I DON'T KNOW YOU, and you don't know me.

I never said i live in Chicago because i don't, I am not in Nigeria .... I have told you that if you get mind, put your money on the table I will call you video call, I will pin my location and go and snap a bus-stop ... i will call u video call ... or better still >>> i will go to a local college close to me and call you from their sign post ...

I feel like proofing a point to you ... BUT put the money on the table sir/ma

I meant Canada and you KNOW it!! My friend you are NOT in Canada. We already KNOW that! Anybody in Canada won't be doing all this too much talk. They'll simply prove it by photo, then demand payment. We KNOW you are NOT in Canada! You are not fooling anybody.
otunbadan is a fraud!
He is fraudulently claiming he's in Caca when he is NOT!!

otunbadan:
Tor … that’s why Una Dey experience the shagey!!!

Others are moving on !!!

Hope you see the irony

Moving on from what? Moving on from Tinubu being a known criminal or what?
And what's the irony you're talking about?

otunbadan:
I DEY GAME …. In will top it up with video call for you …. !!!! Choose the escrow and let me know

You already exposed yourself. We already know you're NOT in Chicago. It is psychology. Anybody in Chicago won't be waiting for a bet on Nairaland - something we know is impossible. You've been tricked into exposing yourself

Little21:
Says who? Men are the ones that gossip more.
And on Nl men are the most obsessed ones

See below

FreeIgboho:
Twale boda mi. Ma binu. Only being discrete. Not everything is meant for public consumption. I look forward hearing from you

Well you're one of about 10 people who sent me dm.
Imagine if I were to start answering them all - it'll become a full time job!
Just have some balls and post whatever it is here

virginchaser:
It's less stressful if you are not married. Many families in Nigeria are passing through emotional stress. It's seems there no peace in the world anymore. Some are dieing to go while some are bringing back their families.

I'm not married and that's part of it. I have a dream of meeting my international partner over there and setting up an international family. Don’t know why our folks there don't do that

dayjeee:
500k isnt a big salary in nigeria today, you cant live comfortably with a family with that amount... please run to canada and dont look back

You obviously haven't been reading the thread or you'll know the salary is probationary and quickly doubles and more, but the ground is on fire under my feet and "run to Canada" is what my heart wants, though common sense and people in the know advice some delay!

olufak2001:
I also have 5-year Canadian visa since last December but I'm not willing to move now because it's a VV and I don't want to be stranded overthere.

I bought my ticket since July but my brother overthere said I can't really do much with VV. I tire oooooo.

Wow, we're almost in the same predicament. Same advice from my prospective hosts over there. What sort of 5-year do you have. Mine is 10 years but actually 8 years as that's when my passport expires

Taal17:
The OP never said it was a status car, he just said the job came with a car.

Besides even if it is a status car ...just because you never seen it doesn't mean he's exaggerating. It maybe uncommon does not mean it's doesn't exist.

Thank you very much. Couldn't have said it better. But it is a status car - assuming we mean same thing by that. Just ignore the guy henceforth

Intrepid01:
So that’s not a status car but an operational car. Nigerians are fond of exaggerating themselves. Just say it as it is…..

Stop making a fool of yourself. First you were on about salary, now it is wether "status" or operational car!

elbulk:
If you have enough money to sustain you for a good period of time then go for it. Even if you get a job in good time it's best to have money to sustain you for 6 months to 1 year just in case

To be honest, if I leave now I'd enter Canada with about $500 US. What you think?

otunbadan:
Put your money on the line !!! Otherwise … nah, I have nothing to proof to you especially if it’s for free !!!

Ok. I'm ready. How are we to arrange it?
Any escrow reading this, please let us know

otunbadan:
Canada that has a system you can tell you self … “I want to achieve this or that “ and push for it … you won’t have to deal with bad economic instability or Nepa or traffic or police harassment … no worry, people are just consoling themselves … but to go the Canada still no easy for common man o

😆 Well, if you want to look at it that way, Tinubu also told himself “I want to achieve this" and he ended up achieving it, despite being a known criminal - and he wasn't in Cana!
If he had stayed in Chicago he'd very likely be sitting in maximum security as we speak!

Taal17:
If this is the case.

Separate yourself, plug out ALL distractions and ssit down to reflect for ONE day.
No social media, nairaland, Instagram, WhatsApp
No internet sef.
If you're a praying man pls pray ask God to shine light on WHY you feel this way.

Reflect
Use 5 whys ( basically interrogate yourself with each answer) nd write it down.
When you're done assess whether your final answer has any merit

Thank you very much for very good advice and a very practical method of making decisions. But in this case I think the heart will win over - it's probably going to be Cana, the way I feel right now

Taal17:
It's not new, very possible
I got a car..there are managerial cars and there are functional cars.
Managerial was because of your position, functional was because of your job function required a car. This is very different from pool cars that had a driver.
I could use the car at weekend and my personal time. Got a stipend for fuel however repairs were done by the office. However they will not use company money to replace anything broken or spoilt outside work hours

No mind the Intrepid01 guy. A salary that is probationary and quickly skyrockets is what he is obsessed with. Keep yapping about what he knows nothing about

Persephone1:
Nl says otherwise

Well, NL is NOT real life😂
Women are the talkers and gossips of life, not men. Men are usually about action and solving problems. That's the truth and you know it🤣😂

Little21:
Actually are no difference. They rarely say it to their face, but comes here too say it behind their backs. Doesn't the men here live in real life?

Persephone1:

Like I'm tired! Chochochocho everytime yet 1dollar = 1075 naira nothing is done or said about it nah women them go dey advise up and down.

At bolded I've always suspected this, I guess you are right.

Notice we are on romance section - made up mostly of people of a certain age. Well, "men" and "women" include all ages. Woman are by far the ones obsessed with relationship and social gossip, not men!

otunbadan:
Set your money, if I bring ANY PROOF, mention any thing you feel can be proof, and you will pay me !!!

If I don’t bring it, I will pay you


Naira or CAD … I go collect …. No be to Dey use free 250 mb from airtel to start argument that won’t lead any where !!!!

See him😆. Take a photo of something happening now and post it

alyarmouk:
My brother. Getting a slavery job there is better than my present stay here, trust me. Waking up to nothing n sleeping to nothing at this youthful stage of my life. I'd definitely consider any route so long it takes me out of here where I can work n earn.

So why not go the asylum route. But you can also get soul-killing slavery job right here in Nigeria if you wanted. That you are in Canada or any place doesn't make a soul-killing slavery job less so. I'm sure these people below were also yearning for slavery jobs

Little21:
But why is it that men nowadays don't think about anything more than women issues?

Actually this is only on NL and forums like it. In real life men rarely talk about women while women gossip about men, family, and relationships all day long

Amumaigwe:
Believe what an evening newspaper says about marriage at your own risk.

Has nothing to do with belief, it is common sense. Nothing is more important in life than life itself. Appreciate the fact you have life and live and enjoy yours the best you can. And don't let any man-made artificial imposition of fruit prevent you from doing just that. In 100 years nobody on this forum will be remembered and even those that are, what good is it to them - they'd be dead!
And BTW nobody is "evening newsoaper". Pure nonsense.. People find their ideal partner at any point in life, while for some there is no such thing. Let people breathe!

Luther0luther:
Oga, don't insult yourself . First off, his 500k salary will never remain static. Secondly, it's somebody like you that I can perceive does not have passport and can not command 500k salary! Oga sit this one out! You think it's by converting naira to dollars? Don't you know there are people in America and Canada to whom $480 is like their entire net worth? Do you know how many natives of these are homeless and penniless?

it's not everybody that chooses to remain in naija that is unfortunate. Some of us have actually stayed abroad and realized that it's not all beds and roses,then decided to grind it out in Nigeria.

I have people in the diaspora who are only there not because of financial or economic reasons, but they traveled because of herd mentality and they're regretting it today,knowing that they were better off in Nigeria.It's only people like that that can relate.

You are actually quite right in many ways. The 500K salary is actually only probationary, quickly doubles even triples. Also I have a relative in Italy (I hope he is still alive) whom no one has heard from again. Still, I'm seriously leaning towards traveling now. Whatever I ultimately do, I'll post on this thread, with photos.

DIVINEEVIDENCE:
Thanks.
I'll try cybersecurity and Data analysis.

Good for you! Best of luck to ya

Eriokanmi:
07034591079. Call him and ask him to help shed lights on the matter. He won't ask you to come see him or buy any anointing oil or ask for money. Only prayers. I've introduced him to lots of people here and they've all testified to God's goodness with their problems totally solved. He will pray on it and anyone God approves, just go for it. Take care.

Thank you so much. Really touched you went to the trouble obtaining a number for me, but in my experience and observation of life, when it comes to Nigeria, most such things are scams at bottom, one way or another, and I'd rather stay away from them

babajero:
Not when the so called jaw jawed Muslims are financing terrorism around the world especially in Africa.

Jaw jaw is jaw jaw
Terrorists don't jaw jaw

Sooo, what precipitated this odd apology? Did you suddenly get religion or what

babajero:
Saudi Arabia needed the support of the US because they are afraid of other Islamic states eg Iran.

So they jaw jawed. So you see, Muslims can jaw jaw

babajero:
unfortunately Muslims don't believe in jaw jaw they only know war war.

You mean terrorist Muslims. After all it's through jaw jaw that US and Saudi connived whereby oil can only be bought in dollar, effectively making dollar the world currency!

OP you talk as if the most important thing in the world is selling fruit. What good is selling the fruit when you are not happy. What's important is your feeling happy and fulfilled, not selling fruit.
Live your life the best you can wether fruit is sold or not. Don't get into an unhappy situation or situation of regret just to sell fruit! And don't be tricked into letting your happiness hinge on selling fruit, which is a totally man-made expectation. Selling fruit is ok, but always remember, you can live a happy, fulfilled life without selling fruit, much happier than many who sold fruit!
This 61 year old woman below has a happy, fulfilled, and productive life! Not everyone is meant to be selling fruit!
