I should relocate to abroad and become slaves in another Man country.
Never!
I will become a king here in my own country.
I travel for leisure not to become a slave for any mudafucker white head

If I am to practice in Nigeria as a Child and Adolescent Mental Health Specialist, over 85% of Nigerian parents who would need my services for their children cannot afford my bill and working in a Nigerian public health facility which should make it cheaper for the parents, will be premium shege for me, with the peanuts paid to healthcare professionals in Nigeria.

I am where my skills are appreciated and rewarded, while I offer pro bono services to some, back in Nigeria.
Make sense.

Never, I will never do that.
Traveling out of the country, to where, to go and do what?.
After all expenses, if I can save just only #200k, I'm okay

I am in Lagos, i have structured myself and my life to ensure. I have peace of mind. If I was in the US and my kids were going to schools there, I will not have peace of mind, due to gun violence in schools and racism in society. To each is own
That is your choice, I leave with my family and peace of mind in the US to the glory of God. I've been working in big organizations since I've landed and never experienced the so called racism. America is a multi racial country, and if yourself are a racist, then you will witness racism. I've worked with both black, white and brown. Meanwhile, the gun violence in Nigeria is even more than the so called America with the rate of kidnapping, banditry going on. One chance is not a new thing to Lagos.

You are saying this because you are still living in dillusion thinking abroad is heaven, try come the abroad u will see the difference between social media and reality, you have only heard of depression come u will know how real it is over here just dey play.

For the OP if you will listen, listen good with what you claimed to have already u have no business coming here, the same thing u have now is what i am working towards to have then i wiill be in Nigeria. Nigeria is not as bad as some people makes it seems, we are not living here we are surviving, Nigeria Africa is the best place to live quote me anywhere abroad is like a cult u dont tell people not to go in, but until u go in u will see the reality.quote author=Hhh4444 post=137099710]Even if I'm saving 2million monthly,I will still travel. When Nigeria happens to you,that money will not be able to save you.
Stop deceiving Nigerians pls. Abroad no easy, true. Its far different from what most Nigerians think, true however, that's the more reason as many as can come, come and see for yourself. If e pay you, stay. If e no pay you, you go back, even more enlightened. So many oppression because people don't know when they know, they can be enlightened and make choice. Even if you have billions and you never travel before, you would believe anything you have been told by those that have traveled, so why not go an experience it yourself. It has paved way for many.

Abeg, many una come. Come and see that the earth is the Lord's and its fullness thereof. What you are discouraging might just be someone's breakthrough, so please stop. You wey no like am, go home. I give you 6months, infact, as you dey pand Muritala, you probably be asking yourself what you doing there...

So please, dont deceive people not to come. Yes, tell them the truth but if they can, let them come.

I actually save an average of 600k a month but I will like to japa because of my kids.
The fact is that, I want my kids to be in a country with viable system because it is not all about money but a reliable economy void of corruption .
You will agree with me that most people with white collar jobs like doctors, engineers, lawyers, Civil Servants who don't have access to embezzle money are struggling to make ends meet in Nigeria unlike countries like the UK, US, Canada, Austrialia and countries in Europe.

My wife and children are there but I can't leave Nigeria to relocate. Visitations up and down, but my main money is here.

I had a colleague then who resigned for Canada, he posted on our group chat how he and Our then Zonal head were working as labourers loading trucks. God forbid rubbish.

Even with my 280k salary and a federal job.
I won't leave Nigeria.
No plan to do so, only trying to manage and build an empire of my own.
If to say I no go ever die if I leave Nigeria it would have been a good reason.
I'm just a soul at peace with my Creator 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I'm very grateful for this one and I know if it's God's will,there will be more improvement.

Maybe not. Traveling abroad may not necessarily be about money but about quality of life. Roads, hospitals, electricity, education, security, etc are other factors.

My friends made more than that and japa’d. They are in developed countries making more than Nigeria could ever guarantee them. Their kids are schooling for free till the end of high school. They made the right choice. Any sum I’m making today is to guarantee my own japa in future.

Saving #500k monthly in naija dwindles monthly due to hyper inflation in naija. #500k dz month is of a lesser value the next month.

How will someone saving 500k every month think of relocating abroad, if this is not a fake story that person need deliverance with 30 birds
Lol. Dey play.

You think 500k a month is a lot of money because you don't have it yet. When you do, you'll realize it can barely go anywhere.

For context, someone saving 500k a month won't even be able to afford to japa. Because that'd be 6m in a year.

Unless you want to travel to Niger Republic, 6m can't take you anywhere.

I currently save 1.5m monthly. And while I don't really have intentions of traveling soon, I can assure you that even that 1.5m I save monthly doesn't do much for me. Because the naija economy is currently so messed up.

Japa is currently very expensive. If I want to move to the UK via masters, I'd need nothing less than 40m.

How long do you think I can save 1.5m monthly to reach that amount? Now compare it to someone saving just 500k per month. So that person can't even afford japa. Let him just continue living his life here. Or pursue scholarship opportunities if they really want to japa.

Na this cost of japa just make some of us remain here.

If I'm saving upto 500k after expenses I will invest my money into landed assets, expand my business and enjoy myself with my family here in Nigeria

If God bless us more we can tour the world 😊and come back home

500k a month is 6m a year, that's a very poor savings to rely on tho.

If you know you can afford to travel to a better country, your best option is to leave the country.
