exactly. You are very correct. The smart ones will move to other west African countries to process instead. The name Nigeria has been soiled in so many ways. Like we have spoilt this country by ourselves.
like get other west African country's passports??

So Nigeria have finally happen to me, I thought if I save a little to the 5M I have, it would be able to leave this country by next year.

But right now, it is impossible, I saw on Twitter how a lady was begging money for flight ticket which was about 2.2M, just flight ticket o.

Months ago, a relative of mine told me someone is looking for a dependent and he will connect me to the person, he said the payment was 4M and I was not going to pay much after that and I will stay with the person in the UK before I settle on my own but I was forming big girl saying I will do my process by myself.

Now look, dollar have increased, the money is now worthless, anyway when there is life, there is hope.

Nairaland please help me think of a business to start with 2M, I can't just leave the money in the bank to keep on depreciating.

Thank you
op, your post does not connect in any way with your headline.
I'm in even more confused what the mod was thinking or drinking when this was pushed to the frontpage.
Seun u really need to check your mods, their wellbeing and their mental uprightness.
This post doesnt have any meaning. Reading through, u cannot even understand anything the poster is saying. And a mod actually moved it to the frontpage. As in seriously?

This makes me laugh because I read news a lot and I see that there is a lot of cartels in Mexico and the county is worst than even Nigeria in tends of laws, the police are in the pocket of criminals.

Last month I even saw some tourist been kidnap in daylight, so to even think about traveling to Mexico, I rather just dash the money away
you guys can be funny at times . Mexico is over two times the seize of Nigeria , there is violence no doubt but saying is worse than Nigeria is not true. I live in Mexico and truth be told there are violence. Just yesterday. A doctor was killed in the same tower where my wife have a consult in hospital español in one of the safest neighborhoods in the capital. But comparing Nigeria to Mexico is very funny. There is just no parameter that are comparable please… Nigeria is my country but sir… there is non.

Even if you are talking of poverty rate. Oga the idea and concept of poverty is relative o. If you go to some of the worse neighborhoods you will wonder Al what poverty really means from a Nigerian stand point. The challenge of language is a big issue for Nigerians trying to migrate here. And by the way it is not easy as you might think. But better and more cost effective and if you relate with Mexicans and smart with leverage like mine since I have a wife. There are tons of businesses and partnerships you can go into . Mexicans are very receptive and accommodating to we blacks . But please don’t compare the two countries . Mexico is the 11 or 12 th economy in the world . And have the infrastructure for business to thrive . Only avoid some states in the north of the country and areas around Veracruz

How did you get that much money already? My advice is to lock the money away in a fixed deposit account and do more of what got you the one you have already, or improve it.
Another option is for you to invest the money into what got you the money, improve and develop it then you’ll get more.

The interest rates in fixed deposit are terribly poor compared to the rapid devaluation of the naira. Better changing to dollars.

Don't buy dollar immediately. Government announced some policies in the last few days that are supposed to stabilize the forex market and eventually bring down the dollar again naira. Watch the market for a week or two. If these policies do not reverse the downward slide of the naira with this period and the dollar continues to rise, please quickly buy dollar with money. It means the government has no real solution to the fall of naira. Note one dollar is about 1290 to 1310 today

That was the same thing you Agbadorians said in June. The only thing that stabilise the naira is increased oil production and exports of other agricultural products and solid minerals.

I was actually given this advice months ago when the dollar was 950 or so but my thought process was that the dollar might come down and I will lose money 😔 even now, I made the calculations

If I use 4M to buy dollar, that will be 3200 dollars and if dollar increases, say 2000 by this year ending or so, I would make an extra 2.4M but if dollar decreases I will lose a lot of money.

Nigeria is a very weird place, the dollar market is so unpredictable.
I am still thinking of it sha

I went to the bank this morning, took out 8m from my savings and used everything to buy USDT. Be like me

OP, take this advice... I'm currently doing a 1200$ job for a client on Upwork, when I convert the funds into Naira, I'm looking at close to 1.2 million.

Freelancing is bae. Na to use Geepay Africa to convert my money and pay it into my naira account.

Re: My Japa Plan Has Been Destroyed by sukkot: 12:29am On Oct 27, 2023
Here is my advice. You say you are a woman right ? You didn't tell us your age but am guessing mid twenties. This my advice , get that your 2 million naira, take 1.5 million and go and put it in first bank fixed deposit. Just so you don't lose it through fluctuating forex cuz trust me a world war is coming through and at the end of it the dollar would be toilet paper and western economies would collapse.

The remaining 500k, just go back home with your parents and use that 500k conservatively to chop life and beautify yourself . While looking for courses you can do for free on YouTube and while actively dating and looking for a husband

Forget that japa thing oooo unless you are ready for a life of loneliness and no husband and working like a dog till you start looking wretched . Japa is not for single women oooo lol

Do you know the influx of ppl that Keep on entering the country? (USA, Canada, Australia and UK) everyday different men and women of the Nigerian society are waiting stranded,jus to acquire the UK scholarship visa which has started being like impossible to get.


There are other countries you can assess which are welcoming and where cost of living is better, housing is affordable and where their currency is balanced.

2m is worthless in our foodstuffs business now, Rice is 50k
20 bags 1m
Beans 70 and 20 bags is 1.4m
Corn is 50k
20 bags is 1m
You have not paid for shop
You have not put other things in place like generator.
You better be confused like me now

Must she buy upto 20 bags, why not buy rice of 20 or 15bag beans 5-10 bags and buy other things like 2-3bags each and pay for a shop of 100k , so the money is enough to start it

i mean look at the type of advices you reetards are giving a young black woman ? Go to turkey, go to Georgia, go to Mexico, go to schengen and chop aduro etc etc

But you don't understand that everybody is not a hardened desperate person, some people are just band wagon jumpers who want to japa because they think abroad is heaven
Listen to that woman speak does she sound like a hardened wretch who will survive in Mexico or Turkey ?
Just listening to how she broke down the Mexico thing you can tell she is at least from a middle class home doing alright and is just someone trying to japa not out of necessity but out of trend

So basically you have to psychoanalyse people before giving out your cookie cutter advice
