Theconglomerate:
N200.
Why?
That means N200 is a small change to you.

5,000,000/200 = 25000

Multiply your daily income by 25,000. That would give your the dialy income you need to have to consider 5m a small change.

It is all about perception.

By Medicine, you mean Med/Surg? If Yes.

Now, imagine you studied this your dream course with happiness and focus in school and graduate with a good result just like you did in Soil Science, do you think you would have made such statement "if ur certificate still feeds u 10yrs after school, then u are a failure"?.

No! You won't. Because we both know what a good result in Med/Surg can do anywhere in the world. And please, stop saying you prefer business than being a qualified and professional medical doctor. cheesy

We know it's a lie.

I graduated with a CGPA of 4.26, I'm a soil scientist, I graduated February 2020, my dream is bigger than what salary could offer. Even if I graduated with 5.0 I'll still advice anyone to start a business
You just graduated in year 2020 and you are already bragging? What professional job/work experience have you got?
There are degrees in professional fields that can bless your life greatly for 20-30 years after graduation, if you really know your onions and plan your career! Geology, Medicine, Accounting, Engineering etc. are examples of such professions.

But they are waiting for a team of medical practitioners to find the cure for Corona virus.

its not a lie, I had passion for medicine, I really do.
But at this moment, I have passion for money lol.
As a consultant in d medical field, they pay u 700-800k monthly, same with professor, but see ehn, business fit pay u 5mila, 10mila, 100mila if u want to ball high etc in a month.

I may not be saying this if I got my dream course because that course may not open my eyes and I'll still wallow in my stupidity.

People have passion for money o, no worry when u leave school, u go understand say money comes before profession.

See ehn, If u drop Otedola/Adeleke(multi millionaires) and Ben Carson(med doctor) , wake me up from deep sleep and tell me to choose one, I'll choose Otedola. Who profession epp?
Na money be fine bobo

I applied for medicine lol, my Jamb score was 198, I believe that was why I didn't get the course, my utme score was high 270, but lemme tell u, I will still prefer business to medicine even though it pays well.
Yes I was frustrated when I got the course but I came to understand how the outside world rocks thanks to this course.
Sometimes the best option is not the right option, we need a course that prepare us for the future not a course that prepare us to get a job.

Moreover soil science is a course u could easily secure a Job except u have no idea what the course entails then u can say anything about it
Stop misleading people on this forum.Dont let your situation be what you would use to discourage young ones.

Mine has been useless for years but no regret. I will still educate my children to any level they desire. Certificates could be useless in Nigeria, education is priceless

People put too much emphasis and almost all their faith in a degree.

University degree is just like a foundation to greater heights, nothing else.
If u don't want to push wheelbarrow, become a gas attendant or a conductor for a start then get a degree.

Wise people use their degree to secure a Job, save substantial amount then start a business and when the business is big enough to feed them and their family, they resign from their Job.
The money u get from a Job can't make u live, it can only help u survive.
Salary as a whole is like a bribe u take so u can forget ur dreams.

My advice to u is this, get ur certificate, use it to start a life but don't depend on it.
Modified
Don't depend only on ur cert in d next 10yrs, have more streams of income
You have said it all!

Bachelor's degrees are useful, I will always encourage people to obtain one if possible. Once you manage to get your foot through the door, however, you realise sometimes it's a lot more about who you know and whose ass you kiss than merit
Exactly, it is a well known fact that at a point it is about who you know. However, have the background first!! Some of these guys will just be misleading young ones with the aspire to perspire. Ask them to teach you their business that would be giving you millions, they will disappear and start talking capitalism.

A successful business gives more money and more free time than being qualified and professional medical doctor. There is reason we have some doctors establishing their own private hospitals now. Business, entrepreneurship. Simple

So your father paid school fees for you to study soil science... Lol! That man loves you. I wrote jamb 3 times before I finally got medicine. Fact is, globally, if it isn't medicine, pharmacy; STEM in general, the result is as good as useless.

Which business really? Guy, there's nothing like a secure profession. A profession that you know will always be there. How many people entered into business hoping to be Gates, Bezos and Dangote? How many made it? And who says you can't practice medicine and do business at the same time?
And guy, my surgeons here in DELSUTH earn as high as 4 million monthly. Imagine practicing surgical medicine in the Middle East... Gawd!

Mehn, am still in school, buh am earning more than the kind graduates dem, though I'm sure of coming out with my 2.1, I cant come and spend my time and resources in school for nothing, I ain't depending on that shit. My problem now is just to top up my tech skills, and work Remotely fulltime. My cert would just be for documentations. Am also on a scholarship, my GP earned me that, so the cert is important incase of necessity.
Please what tech skills can I leverage on to be like you. Thanks
