Please I take God Beg, don't use Forex to start hustling. It can be a side hustle while you pursue something much more tangible. Of course there are guys that makes millions from forex now but ask them how much they have sacrificed earlier on before getting to that level

When you've made enough money from your main hustle then you can dive into forex as a side hustle; but don't be too deep.

My 2cents though
thanks for your advice,i don't have any other option and i badly need a side hustle can't always depend on my parents,i know a bit of programming tho,but everything boils down to capital...
still pursuing my career in med/surg tho...

Pursue programming bro... Trust me, you will waste more on Forex than what you will use to invest in your programming career

You really need to be very good at it before you start making reasonable money... Don't be in a hurry to make money, spend more on learning

Good luck

Hello Everybody, a lot of motivational stories and wonderful ideas so far, I hope to share mine some day. I just finished school and i'm into Agro Commodity trade, I broker deals between importers and sellers in Nigeria, then hope to get a percentage, I'm just starting out actually and hope to go into Agriculture someday, and full time exporting of Agro products. Although I've not made a penny from it I know that one day everywhere go stew for me, I also want to go into photography and filmmaking but as you know, you have to start from somewhere, and I've not been able to get any funds to push anything, as I have a lot of ideas to make Money. I don't even own a camera right now talk less of a laptop, so I solicit that whoever can sponsor or can be of any financial help or enough to get a laptop would be welcome, I would quite appreciate it, "If you nor get money nor hide your face, show your face make person help you".

You will always make it in life if you face your other business the way you faced your final year projects.
You can make money through Rdp and vps and writing Linux scripts.

You know I sit here wondering how you managed to do all that and still keep a full-time job. Some people who don't even have a full-time job find all those too much to combine at the same time - for example, blogging and Kindle publishing.

If you'd oblige me, may I know the nature of your job? Just tryna figure how you managed it.

A lot of online biz does not involve a lot of work and that maybe because a lot of it becomes passive income with time such as blogging

grin this reminds me Alakija. When asked how she made her wealth, she said "it's god." At least in Alakija's case, we know what she does. Many on the thread are just outrightly lying.

She was dashed an oil well by Babangida's wife! Yes just like that!

Interesting and very informative thread. I'm glad a post like this exists to guide anyone looking to find light at the end of the tunnel, God will see you through. But I'll like to mention, many posts here are fake and lies, not like these businesses don't work, they do, a've tried a few and will post my experiences.

Don't get discouraged or depressed reading these stories, see them like some sort of motivation and inspiration. Don't listen to the self acclaimed gurus, you don't need them to learn it, there are alot of resources online even here on nairaland business section.

So I made my first 1m at 21 working and saving constantly. Used the money to open a phone / accessories business which was doing well until the beginning of Buhari’s administration and everything feel apart grin. I shut the business, took what's left, borrowed some money and went into buying and selling oil products. My uncles friend was doing the business and guided me with the 411 rules. I made 1.2m profit on my first month, then I was so happy smiley and thought I'll be Otedola in 3 years angry put the money back into the business and went for another deal, then Buhari decided to increase the prices of products and at this time I already purchased a ticket and the only way I could load the product was to pay 1.4m difference, I thought I will make it back and a little profit on top but I was wrong! I lost about 1.8m after all the expenses and sales. It really hit me so hard and I almost gave up. I took a break from the business and went back after a year or so.

Then I joined online business and I swear, it's the sweetest hustle ever! What worked for me was freelancing and cryptocurrency ( HODL strategy) I can hold coins for Africa. I made about 5m instantly from crypto early this year.

What I learned is making a million is not the problem, infact you will just get happy at the moment before the reality sets in. The problem is sustaining the millionaire status, if you keep it saved up that's pure stupidity. You need to invest it to make more money and there lies the risk of losing everything or making more millions. Many people reading this are not lazy, Nigerians are very hard working people, if you're reading this and have just 1k in your bank account and you're 30 with no source of income. Don't give up, you're not a failure, keep trying new things and read books on finance. It doesn't matter if you made your 1st million at 15 or 40, what matters is how you invested it. So when the millions start rolling in, invest the money!!! It can come and disappear, but if you invested it wisely you will continue to be a millionaire.

I've got an alternative to treasury bills which guarantees an ROI of 23% to 27% with a reputable nigerian company. Please DM me if interested. Thank you.

Thanks so much for this. I already bought some tbills. And I'm also considering stocks too. But I think it has a steep learning curve. I'll still take some time to learn about it.

Thanks again.

Drop the name of the company here. If it is worth it, many nairalanders will likely invest with the company
