2.5-3m but Pay structure and cost of living is much different here.

AmeLonRo:
It's good to mention money well. Handle money well. Arrange it well. speak good abut it and it will come to you. try that for a while and see.

Alright

RapistOnBail:

Na cos of your mama I go advice u.

But I know say, as Nigerians wey we be, na money wey go come immediately we Dey find.

But that’s not the formula to success.

You need to start from grass. Start up a business from small and grow with it as u age every year.

Be disciplined and remember to invest back into the business 80-90% of every profit being made.

Entrepreneurs hardly get paid for a period of 5 years from their business.

They let their business mature into a stage where it’s self sufficient.

Apply this and see massive turnaround in your life.

Like I said, I’m only advising you cos you really need to take care of your mom.

CIAO.

Thank you

How did you get the remote job please.

To get remote job, you need the following:

1) A skill: what service(s) can you offer?
Example: graphic design, web design/development, UI/UX design, 3D-animation, social media management, data entry, lead generation, copy/content writing, proof reading/editing, transcription, appointment setting, Admin Assistantetc...there are so many services you can render.

If you don't have any skill, I'll advise you to choose one based on your interest & the need for it in the market and learn it.


2) A Laptop: the type you should get depends on the skill...if you're into programming or 3d animation, & maybe graphic design you need a higher grade laptop than if you're into writing.

3)High speed Internet: You can buy a modem, use wifi, etc whatever works for you.

4) Dedicated work space in your home/room: basically comfortable table & chair, so you don't develop back pain.

After getting all these things, you can then do the following:

5) Sign up to Freelance Marketplaces such as Upwork, Fiverr, People Per Hour, Freelancer...there are so many of them.

6) You can focus on any two of these...set up your profile and optimize.
And be truthful while at it...if you're from Nigeria, state that as your Country and use your real name...

7) Start sending proposals on these platforms everyday...send as many as you can, it's a game of numbers.

It won't be easy initially because you're just starting out, but if you're consistent you will get clients.

And most times, if you do a great job for them, they will keep coming back to patronize you...some may even beg ask you to become a permanent team member and offer you a salary.

Also on some of these platforms, you'll see some agencies or businesses advertising for positions... if you apply and get the job, you don get guaranteed long term remote job be that.

7) For payment: Most of these marketplaces have escrow services, which means your client pays money to them, they take their share and give you the rest...you can link your local bank account to receive your funds.
You can open a Payoneer account, you can open a domiciliary account etc...there are so many you can get your money.

Finally, anyone can do remote work... it's not for a special group of people.

Just set your mind on it, and gradually it will start falling into place.

glassy:


Do you mind giving a "brushed-up" detail, it may help someone here...

yeah sure, i'm a software engineer, so that's already half the details. funnily, first software job i got was from Nairaland here, random post i replied but was for 150k. in life, i have learned that people who strive to be above average will often succeed, so i studied more and more and more, until i had practically no life. until i met someone who helped me get another for 200ish , then 300ish. I wasnt comfortable, because i knew people out there earned more, at my level. Then 500ish, which i turned down cos still wanted more, Oliver Twist. Then now. I am still not at where i'd like to be but i know i have paid a price to deserve what i have now.
take home is; most of ur high-paying jobs will come via recommendations and secondly, love yourself more. highest, i'll go to the village and drink 'garri' with peace of mind than do a 40k job that comes with insults on dignity.

28,250

Golfam:
120k Lecturing Job

650k Blogging

Btw 500k and 750k Business/Side Hustle

Teach this internet stuff I would pay it

May God enlarge our coast . I make around 300+ or thereabout on the average , but not salary . It's a business.

My cousin who is also a software engineer moved back to Nigeria and landed a job from Cybercoders.com .They recruit remotely as long as you can pass their proficiency exams and interviews. She earns a healthy usd based salary. Give it a try if you’re ever seeking.

What's your stack boss? And how many years experience?

Anything that has dot js in it, MEAN, MERN, PERN/PREN, etc, as people like to call it
Anything that has Ruby in it
Anything that has Python in it
Anything that lives in the "cloud"

Experience is "senior" and years depends on how many senior means to you, for some 4, for some 6

Hmm I'm curious to know what kind of job you got straight out of school.

My highest so far was #175k with stress and pain, before, I die, I threw in my resignation, the company-GABSYN PERYZ LTD at Surulere is still owning me TWO MONTHS. Useless company!

Bantu10:
498k monthly before statutory deductions. This is aside ur perdiem which u get every night when you sleep outside your work station.

comes with 15% increase annually

Field: iNGO

Are y'all hiring?

Shampoo77:
180k but I make up to at least 250k monthly apart from salary.

Would you want to share the side hustle which helps you with that earnings?

N4000000, N4million per month, still not enough

maybe this post isnt for me, but hell yea . . it was a teaching job lol . . at a primary school

[quote author=JIREN01 post=107265899]Tell that to the expatriates working for oil companies or the team leads at Microsoft. The salaries of many people dwarfs your annual earnings by a mile. Be humble sir![thanks, but we see life from different angles.]

People wicked o. I believe say Na PH you dey cause non oil workers there are just underpaid. So I heard tho

FahBuLous:
