Instead of buying food to just eat, he can still open a small restaurant and be eating from there while making profit.
Is it everyone who can run a restaurant? If that's your logic, he can also open a shop selling foodstuffs and be eating from there 😒

Are you not making sales?
Sales is slow. Most of the goods increased in price after purchase, so replacing after sales became wahala. I know what that money could get me back in say 2016, compared to now. cry

However, I'm working on full-time E-commerce and digital marketing soon. Fingers crossed.🤞🏽

This is the case of my 45 years old uncle who is in a state of dilemma.
What advise would you offer him?
5m is 2900doĺlars. Is that what you want to run from nigeria with? Loool. You will use that amount to pay rent in 2 months and you are done

Guy if you have the 5m and you have a reliable agent please apply if you get the visa borrow ticket money. That's the best way to leave the country. I'm talking from experience.
Which money will he spend when he gets to Europe?

Don't leave unless the country of your destination stop forcing COVID vaccine on immigrants before you can get visa. Using 5m to buy your way into slaughterhouse doesn't worth it.

Lack of information makes people to Japa abroad to make dollars while at the same time most of us are making more than $100 dollars daily at the comfort of our room with investment of at least $1k dollar in an online trading be it forex or crypto.

Tell your uncle to spread 2M on 4 dividend paying stocks in Nigeria such as zenith, Fidelity, Ucap and Dangote or presco.

Another 2M on S and P500

Remaining 1M on government bond.

Tell him to focus more on the source of the 5M in order to get more.

You can't travel to a better country with 5M. Though, Saudi Arabia can be option.

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?

Just gimme 1m so that I can start up a fvcking business down here...cuz 5m ain't gonna takes me nowhere , considering how japa has been so expensive recently.
is "starting a business" that easy and guaranteed path to riches? I say no, the amount of people that have approached me and say, uncle please, I need this much money to start my business and repeat the same statement year after year is staggering. Why does a large number of our people have this mindset of instant riches, if only they could start a business?

With 5 milla? For how long? With the current inflationary rate?
Is not about the 5m is about the kind of business you can do that good or bad economy won't stop the profit flow


To me it's only a dead brain people spend 40m to travel out and be washing dishes when there are many opportunities to explore. In a resource less countries many sensible still explore and made their own wealth



If you can't make use of 40m here to build a wealth, 400m made abroad will rather be used to acquire assets because someone that can't create wealth with little, cant guarantee wealth building with big

You can't predict because you might spend long time waiting for your connection man to reach out to you in Libya for the crossing and this would make you spend more money feeding yourself.
