The money is too low.

These Scandinavian countries are very expensive.

You're better staying in Naija.
Have you been to Finland or any other Scandinavian countries? I live in Milan Italy with a permanent resident permit( Carta Soggiorno). Was in Finland(Helsinki)in 2019 for a month, cost of living is okay.
Stop discouraging those who want to apply.

We rise by lifting others

Earning 1430 Euros in Finland is like earning 40k naira in Lagos.
Stop converting your Euros to naira.
You wont pay your rent in Naira
You wont buy food in naira
You wont pay for phone, electricity,heat,trash in naira.

Dont waste your life going from frying pan to fire !!!!!!
You can save up to 300 euros after paying your rent, utilities and setting aside something for medicals. You don't have to eat out, nor go the cinema...300 euros save per month is huge by Nigerian standard grin

Not profitable at that monthly offer.

Visa processing and flight ticket alone might cost nothing less than 5 million naira.

Dem say na minimum wage now. You can see job that pays higher. Don't discourage people if you're not interested. You can even see better offer on getting there.

These are seasonal jobs.... Most likely wild berry picking, tourism or jobs in places in Target to meet tourist spike.... So normally the wages are not same at someone with someone with office work or white collar job.....

Then you must be earning less than 2k. Abybody who takes on this venture will only benefit from the "experience" of travelling to europe or will use thar medium to cut out, but you see saving money and bringing back home, they wont see anything
Re: Finland Opens Application Portal For Nigerians, Others by Joshchi19(m): 7:07pm On Feb 24, 2025

Let say 300 euro is 600k ×9 = 5.4m.

If you remove flight ticket and visa hustling from this, you will be left with almost nothing.

As a contractor I frequent Nigeria also..... So it's clear as day and night on how things are bad.... Nigeria is more expensive than some Major European country due to inflation, poor infrastructure..... So I also encourage people if avenue present itself to leave then leave.... It's beyond the money, the mental state of health is essential and majority of Nigerians just surviving are in a very bad state of health.... Church is just the professional therapist that keeps them hanging on...

This is a seasonal job and you probably will be living in a rural area where living would be relatively cheaper than in urban areas. Assuming they have good public transport systems, you only have to chunk a good portion of your wages for rent and utilities... you have got to forgo some luxuries and non-essentials for the duration of your stay there. You won't be paying phone bills and car insurance. It's still achievable...

You will be living like Almajiri
Leave them... They never want to face the real facts.

The concept of converting such money to Naira is just baffling and idiotic.

You would almost think they will be earning it from Nigeria here.

Common sense won't allow them remove cost of living and taxes... Then they would realize they aren't earning anything meaningful.

It's all exploitation and nothing more.

Lol....phone is mandatory.Cheaper if you paying for 12 months, if you pay less its more expensive.
Why do you think the Finnish people are not taking the jobs ?
All those cost are on a yearly basis
If you decide you want anything short of a year, the price goes up.
You dont want to understand.
Go and buy a ticket to finland and waste your life.
