I'm happy you want to learn a skill. Especially when millions of today's youths in Nigeria are eager to get rich quick without sweating.

You're one different person. So here is my advice...

(Assumption: you love each skill path enough that you can commit to learn it without getting beginner's frustration)

Go for Fridge repairs (or HVAC). The learning curve is steep, but if you take the years to learn it, you are set for life.

I won't go into all the details. But fridge repairs is a skill with high barrier of entry.

Not many people can do what you will be able to do after years of training and practice in the field.

Also, it's a highly scalable skill. You can become a captain of industry if you apply yourself to master this skill. All the best!

You should be thinking of skills that are exponential in nature and in your list above, fridge reparation takes the lead. The problem with the other jobs is that you can't outsource and scale it, for example you must spend time to barb, and the payments are fixed.

With fridge repairs, there are lots of branch to it such as AC, selling of fridge itself, swapping of fridges, parts and auction, and have a warehouse in different location both nationally and internationally, and grow it to a multi million dollar company with lots of people working for you. Imagine being the sole supplier of fridge access Nigeria from Thermocool for example.

Imagine have a contract from Coca-Cola to repair and supply all their fridge needs, and as one company does that, they pass the news to their other ceo friends and you keep going higher. But learning how to repair fridge is one thing, knowing how to run and scale a business is also another thing. So be watchful of that.

Please go for "Generator mechanic" remember generator is not different from phone these days almost every houses have one and maintenance will be required at least once in a month.

Barbing is good also but you will need money to set yourself up, starting from shop, chair, mirror and clipper.

Go for barbing bro.
Re: Tired Of Staying At Home Which Of These Skills Should I Go For? by Yankiss(m): 12:55pm On Feb 14, 2022
Well, since t depends on the area u live. Barbing makes sure u don't lack small change and gave food on your table. U can expand later and empoy others. People have made it through simple means like this. Fridge repairs is good but regular income from that is in doubt.

To my knowledge, as a fridge repairer you will end up with lots of fridge you are unable to repair. Barber is lucrative, but it depends on the area and if you have enough money to establish an attractive barbershop.

I like the fact you're willing to learn a handwork.

Just go for the fridge repairs. You can easily diversify into rewinding of coils and repair of fans afterwards.

From fridge repair, you can still fit easily into air conditioning repair and general cooling systems.
