My brother i weak oh.
Someon spent over 50m japa without any assistance from the so called friends now he wants the person to be sharing his monthly salaries

PrinceOfLagos:
12 pounds per hour wage if converted to naira is huge amount here
.
If you work for 8 hours daily , then you suppose don build mansions upon mansions in just a year

Myrrhis:
Oga, the person you quoted is the one that expects you to be sharing your earnings with your Nigerian community.

By the way, isn't 50m too much to spend on japa?
Has it been worth it so far?

Na study route oh.. And i came with my family although not entirely 50m but close if converted using today's exchange rate

fastseo:
Am not using any school qualification to do the work... Just a normal mayguard and i could afford good things of life with ease. Infact my two weeks pay could buy a 2010/2014 model of cars here

We4all:
You went via study route and after completing the program, you still dey do maiguard work? Hmmnn...

Quelme:
The prices are well too expensive sef. Those Indians when dey run African shop in the UK dey use person head.

We4all:
I thought they said those whe went to the UK via study route are always compelled to leave after their program. How were you able to get a work visa or is it an illegal stay?

fastseo:
What do you mean? A cleaner, care giver etc earn very high. Don't overlook anyjob as there is dignity in labour..

Secondly when u get to a country u have not been before u have to start from somewhere, u don't expect q recent graduate that is just graduating n with no experience after graduating to be working in top banks or u expect me to fold my arms and sit by??.
I believe as they said no job in Nigeria, u will fold ur hands n put in ur pockets without minding u have to start somewhere

Enter UK.. You go see mayguard riding Tesla...
Range rover sport na pure water.

fastseo:
Abeg give me expo where i fit buy cheaper.. Any clue will be appreciated

Quelme:
Your location dey different from my location.

uuzba:
BUT in UK, you will pay UK rate for everything.
UK rent, UK light, UK food, UK transport, UK tax, UK phone bill, UK internet....
and at the end of the month, the money will still finish.
-
Only if one can teleport from UK to Nigeria regularly.
Live here, but work there.

fastseo:
After graduating u still have 3 months to staybye and work full time. Anf u still have options to apply for post graduate visa which gives u 2 years visa to stay and look for graduates jobs

Myrrhis:
About how much would that cost?

Nigerians keep pumping excess money into these countries, while getting little or nothing in return.

Well, this is good. Finding a cheap city and finding good work in THAT city.
Years ago, when I lived in UK, I lived in my university city which was cheap~ £180 a month
But my salary no pass, £500 a month (part time) + transport + feeding, gas... So money still finish.
I wanted to reduce transport fee to work, so when I graduated and moved to work city.
But, Higher rent, higher gas, higher electricity and visa processing was still there, plus another course fees again to hang on.
Wife came with ALL her certificates, EVERYTHING, dem no gree give her pass factory worker...
We were bleeding money.

So we left, before visa expire and they start showing us on NTA news.

Mariangeles:
Chai! Life no just gree balance.

So then, what happened afterwards?
Were you able to get back on your feet again?

We landed very broke in Nigeria.
Family supported. Wife got good work (certificates etc).
Took me a while, I got jobs but not fantastic. But we just continued to manage.
And now with Buhari and Tinubu, I'm considering second match.
But once beaten, Twice shy...
That's why I read you guys stories instead.
The whole process costs money. But Nobody has yet claimed to have recuperated all their money back.
People just go overseas and keep quiet about the details.

PrinceOfLagos:
Ok is there fixed hour that you're allowed to work in a particular place daily or you just work and work for the number of hours your body can carry you?

Who is calculating the number of hours you worked or is there a clock-in clock-out machine that calculate the number of hours that you worked on a daily?

How much are you paid weekly ?

StarGeneral:
Hello, Bro. I saw a post where you said, "you japa at 40 via study route" and that's why I quickly clicked on your profile.

Please, did you apply for BSC? I will be 37yo this December and I wish to japa to the UK through study route too but I have only O'level. I dropped out in my 300l yr in 2014.

Please, kindly help me with any info that could help me.

Thanks, Brother !!

Only if you have the funds.

The most affordable route is master degree program which last just one year or 2 years with cheaper fees compared to 4 years program.

University will charge u 10k pounds and above for just a year program be it master or Bsc.

Then if its bsc then multiply it times 4.
Amd most universities school fees are from anywhere 12k to 15k average.


Your age is not issue rather funds at disposal.

When i came .... dependent was allowed and was able to work full time. So if u have dependant is a plus

Even when you talk, those in Nigeria will call you all sorts of names, that you don't want them to come over, so as they say, experience is the best teacher.

If you are not in the system, you will never know how it works. For every 1 person that said it didn't work for him, 9 are doing perfectly well.
That one person didn't tell you where he got it wrong.
We will never agree we made wrong choices, do we?

descarado:
You studies a course that they don't need.
Your wife also came with certs that are not needed.

The mistake most of u make is coming to uk to stay rubbish courses and expect to be employed with that.
In Nigeria,masters in any engineering courses may be a hot cake but not in uk.
Even in IT, they have Britons, Chinese and Indians to employ first before you as they are huru in that field.

If your wife had come with with health related cert, she will be a hot cake.
Till date, people still make the same mistake. Then turn around and blame the system.

We are very ungrateful bunch when we don't have our way.
And even if you and your wife are working in warehouse, u can still pay your bill and navigate your way around.
I guess the pick money on the street syndrome or else lose hope affected you.
No patience.
It's still Nigerians that started roughly like you and still made it.
