You think its easy to earn online?
Whether digital skills or professional knowledge combined with skills, its not easy.

Only if you know how many persons have digital skills, you would know its not like before, its now very competitive plus our environment is not friendly tech and to remote jobs.

Define gainful employment. If you are offered #35 000 monthly job, will you take?

Bola146:


I have but I still need more money

wildikeman:

Where I'm working, I'm being paid 50k. I'm only going because it doesn't meet a basic standard of living. I can't even dream of saving and it's time consuming. So that's why I said I'm not gainfully employed . I can't even eat a balanced meal. 1.. 0...1. No buying of clothes. Transportation and food alone has taken up everything .

Euforia:


No you don't.

All you need do is to start working with what you have available at the moment. Your horizon will then widen and possibilities will emerge ............but more importantly you and your business will become more attractive to investors.

Your biggest crime is waiting until you have 'enough' cash. That is such a tall expectation.

Who said it was going to be easy before?
5years ago it wasn't easy but still yet people are making money online legitimately. And we sit down there blaming government e.t.c. There are Nigerians making six, seven, eight figures through various legitimate online schemes.

So many Nigerians are just lazy and aren't ready to put in any work whatsoever, just there sitting down wallowing in pain saying the economy is hard.

September 7th 2021, I took a decision that I want to start earning money in DOLLARS, since our Naira was losing value exponentially. I took the matter to GOD and told him to show me a clear path/business line to explore online and September 9th, I came across KDP via a recommended video on YouTube.

Afterwards I went online (even here on Nairaland) and found out that people have been making hell of money from KDP since 2013, something told me this market is already saturated, you won't make anything from it... I had to shun down those thoughts and look at the bigger picture. September 14th I enrolled for a course(invested in Knowledge so as to cut away every trial and error), from the course I got 1 or 2 ideas which birthed my own strategies/shortcuts, I found ways to make things easier for me. Aside the course I paid for, I have never bought any extra software/tools whatsoever, just DATA & TIME invested.

First screenshot below is my result in the last 90days. 2nd screenshot is what I have made just this month alone and I only uploaded 3books (because am currently exploring another business model, still in dollars too).

You want to sit down there complaining to yourself that things are hard, it's not easy, it's too competitive, it's this, it's that, giving yourself flimsy excuses. Whereas you should have gotten in, ask God for direction so you find some hidden loopholes and explore.

And please no one should come here saying it was LUCK or that? It wasn't.... YES, the "GOD-FACTOR" was number 1 but still yet I had to put in the work, sat on my laptop 7hrs straight (not minding if I had eating or not, just because I wanted RESULT).

Yes, I admit I haven't yet gotten to the stage where I want to be on this but am grateful for my little wins and I pray and am working harder to improve my earnings better.

Am going to write in codes afterwards, put your eyes down to understand.

Invest in a skill (lots of them are out there)
a. KDP (been here seen a bit, a lot more money can be made here).
b. Google Adsense Arbitrage (current exploration, 2022 goals) ===> minimum 6months b4 seeing results except if you have money to invest on tools, shorten to 2months.
c. Crypto (be careful here you could get your hands burnt a bit but there is money to be made)

Focus on any ONE of the above skill for a minimum of 3months (nothing less) b4 you ever complain of it not working for you(blame village People if no result after 3months)...
a. Do the hardwork with a minimum of 8hrs daily (4get sleep for the meantime, do the hardwork b4 delving into smart work)
b. Don't just invest in a course/mentorship and sit down there expecting the person to teach you everything. What you invested in is for knowledge.... Take that knowledge, consume it research to make things easier, improve and make it work for you.
c. Start enjoying your reward.

Not many would understand the content of this post and would be quick to comment abruptly. If you don't grasp at First Read, Ask for Understanding and Re-Read Again!

Let's STOP blaming FAILURES on People/Government. Blame it on YOURSELF! Find a Way To Make Things Work for You, Simple!!!

that's it, also most people don't want to lose anything at all and if you are too afraid of losing, you might not be rich. I wrote something like this on this website, about 5 people messaged me and showed interest, I told them to pay 6 thousand naira, once they heard that, they left. They thought everyone is a scammer, Have been scammed before and also gained before online. Online is just reflection on what's happening offline. Some cannot afford to lose 1 percent of their income to anyone. As I am, had bought books,bought information, bought software, bought application, bought contact, their was a time I bought contact of about 200 million for 100k and I don't know the person in person.

Inspire of all your complaints, ensure that you are learning something of value that will be useful to you tomorrow.

Many employees are shortchanged by incompetent employees who in turn feel underpaid.

The balance is only attained when an experienced and hands-on employee is engaged and he begins to perform. The difference is then as clear as day.

My position is that in all cases we Earn' exactly what we deserve.....nothing more and nothing less.

Depsui:


You suppose to understand that 99% of people asking for money in Nigeria are scammers

I am interested in this NFT, can you share your Twitter account or your WhatsApp number.

The goal of every student is to graduate from school and secure a good job, but seems the country has changed that line


Graduate since 2016
NYSC done

wildikeman:

I can tell you that my contribution alone to that company has earned a whopping 200m. It's a loan recovery firm. It doesn't matter what you can do. Where you can't dispel your skills because there is simply no platform for it is tha main problem. Would you employ a linguist in an engeering firm? We just do what we can do to survive simply because there is no platform to propel ourselves into something lucreative that will bring about results.
So your assertion is not well met my man

Euforia:


If your contribution to he company yielded 200 Mill as you indicated above and you are still treated with disdain then something is really wrong. But then again, if you can contribute 200 Mill to the bottomline of a company then you should be a very highly sought after resource. You would never lack in attention as every HR operative would be out there trying to poach you.

And please change your mindset,your abilities, capacity and very importantly your attitude means so very much. As a matter of fact if means everything.

Finally, if you can find a platform to express yourself appropriately then creat one. It can't be that hard for a man of tremendous capacity like you.

Stop blaming others and take full reign of your life.

wildikeman:


Then again I wasn't blaming anyone. You just up and supposed I was and started assuming.

And wow. You say things as if it is all too easy.
Kudos to your energy. But before commenting on threads like this I suggest you understand the situation of the individual before trying to advice people in a put down manner. Everyone here are striving for a better life and means of livelihood. Just because you have got it figured out doesn't make you the smartest person you know.

Euforia:


Sir, you are taking my contributions a bit too personal. My intentions are far from repudiation. I just desire that people view things from an objective perspective despite their immediate circumstances.

Really, I don't need to know the situation/or prevailing circumstances of the 'victim'. If you are objective enough on your appraisal you will find out that what matters is how you react and nothing else. You have absolute control over how you REACT. You can't control what happens but you definitely hold the reins to your reaction.

I am only trying to help drawing from my experience. In every situation try not to dwell on crying wolf but seek a way out of the quagmire. The earlier you start thinking o a solution the aster you are going to get out of the logjam.

Finally, I am not trying to put anyone down. On the contrary I would prefer to provide guidance and perhaps a helping nudge when necessary. Only difference here is that you pity the victim and blame his assailants while I offer him strength to forge ahead and overcome.

....And I am only connecting the dots going backwards. My own life and experiencing is still ongoing bug the difference is that I now operate on as different albeit higher vibrational frequency.

wildikeman:



I'm vehemently considering what you have been saying so far. Thank you.

MrWondah:
I was employed before I finished my 3rd year.
And no, I don't have any connections.

I remember my school proprietor hammering in our ears "read a course that you'd be self employed after graduating as the government is not ready to employ anybody"
In my third year while my colleagues were sorting to pass Fortran, I was already building projects with PHP. I was told PHP will soon die and JavaScript is a language for unserious beings.
Now, the story is different
