Let’s be clear: ₦5M is simply not enough for you to Japa. It's not the same as if you received ₦5M a decade ago; the landscape has changed dramatically. The reality we face today demands more.

If u go England, Australia, US etc, and you are not lazy, you will get the money back less than 6 months, but here in Naija, if you don't careful, the money would have reduced before 6 months.
With #5m? You people in Nigeria will just open mouth waaaaaaaa and be talking r*bbish.

Start a life.

In 2014, at a rate of 97 naira per litre, you can do giveaway with this money for 1,030 cars.

In 2024, at a rate of 1050 naira per litre, you can do giveaway with this money for 93 cars.

Make of this whatever you want.

Why won't you people be having problems in marriage? When you cannot comprehend and answer simple question,wen your immediate family having issues.

Anyway, pls advise OP and stop weeping as usual.

If you have 5 million, cann he travel or do business? That's question and stop wailing up and down.

I have a business running already and I would absolutely add that 5M to the business..I know how far I have come and I have my sight on greater heights, not gonna throw all that away to go and start all over again in a new country.
Heck..if someone gave me a 100 Million Naira, I would just add it to my business portfolio..Yes, this country is difficult but I see the problems as problems that are to be solved...hence opportunities.
Re: If You Had 5m Now Would You Japa Or Start A Business by wunmi590(m):
huh

5million didn’t near JAPA, that like flight ✈️ money based on the country you are going to..

Just find away to start a business with 3million, keep the 2million l, incase you succeed or not

I honestly doubt that 5 million naira will get him very far with his plans to Japa. I also do not support starting a business in this economy. Therefore, he should just continue with whatever he did or is doing that gave him the 5 million naira so he can save up more.
What if it was via donation/gift/contribution, inheritance, betting/gambling, theft/robbery/kidnapping?
He should still continue on it?
Re: If You Had 5m Now Would You Japa Or Start A Business by Emma09(m): 3:09pm On Nov 14, 2024
Not enough this days. If I see such money na to invest on my wife's business, fine small side hustle join my Korope runs and still dey receive my Salary as a civil servant dey go.

A 45 year old in a dilema has already missed his destiny.

He should rather go to a mountain to ask God for compass, bearing and direction.
Re: If You Had 5m Now Would You Japa Or Start A Business by Basiljoe: 3:11pm On Nov 14, 2024
Start an Online business. Emphasis on 'online'.

Find an unexplored niche, or in demand product and go all in.

Most of your money would be spent on marketing.

The best decision would always be to Japa. Anyways, if you intend to japa to English-speaking countries abroad, you would need to write IELTS, TOEFL, SAT , PTE or CELPIP ( for Canada only). Contact us for intensive classes. A trial would definitely convince you. Achieve your highest band score NOW ! so qualify into the pool. Contact us via the numbers below
Re: If You Had 5m Now Would You Japa Or Start A Business by GreaterFuture(m):
Sure business updates dey, but they are paid updates.
Closely guarded by those running it smoothly for some time now.
5M more than enough for some businesses.

Good idea. But 1.5m can't pay your rent and debit and still open shop for you, except you're living in trenches.

It's very good to japa, honestly speaking. But you must have a very strong plans and backup before you do so. If you don't, stay back in Nigeria jejeli, and invest and start a business with the little amount you have. 5m is a little amount.

Drella:
That's less than 3k USD.
Except he's heading towards an African country, he should shelve the idea of japa.

With the influx of questions like this, I strongly believe people underestimate the cost of japa.
When they tell you people sell houses, land, valuable properties just to japa, do you think it's a fable?
Most people don't realize that moving abroad is capital intensive until you find your feet over there.People travel abroad based on imagination only to get there and realize imagination and reality are two different things.Even in Nigeria you're traveling from Lagos to Sokoto to start a new life there,you know nothing about Sokoto state and all you traveled with in your pocket is N5,000.You go suffer tire.

Omo, the economic depression has rendered many involuntarily useless. At least this man could raise 5 milla.
