I’m telling you what I know and what I see not what I heard. I’ve given you an example with big youtubbers who earn about that. I’m not saying everyone earns that but many people who know what they are doing, even kids less than 15 years, no need derailing this thread else I’ll show you many evidences of what I’m saying.

I have read your previous comments. I STRONGLY believe You dont NEED to relocate to first tiers before you make it big in Tech. It's called Tech for a reason. There are many Tech dudes in Nigeria making it bigger than MOST first tier countries contemporaries.

Do you need to live in USA before you list your app on Google playstore?. NO

I live in Nigeria and work with MOSTLY clients from USA.

You said you have proof of Youtubers earning 100k, Did they show you proof of their earnings?

I challenge you to show me proof of 10 Youtubers making 100m per week. I will show you 1m Youtubers that are struggling to make $100 per month. Most of these guys are still in the game because they have strong passions.

BIG Youtubers earn MORE from Product promotion, On average, 1m views on Youtube adsense could give you between $1k to $10k. Tell me, how many Youtubers get 1m views in 1 week?

Perherps, you need to make a research to understand how Adsense works. It's calculated based on Location of visitors, Niches, CPC and other values.


MARKANGELS gets most visitors from Nigeria, so MARKANGEL can not even generate $10k per week via Adsense.
Here is a better search link on Youtube to give you better understanding

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=how+much+1+million+views+youtube

You'd see most videos with over 1m views earn lesser than 10k$. Not so many Youtubers can drive 1m views in 3 months, let alone 1 week. If they keep making more contents, not all will go viral.

Youtubers make more money from SELF STORES. AFFILLIATE, SPONSORED PROMOTION and most times, they dont get offers often . Do i have to tell you viewers hate PRODUCT PROMOTION?. If you do it too much, they'd unsubscribe from your channel.

I'm not derailing the thread, i'm just trying to make you undertand some facts

Good morning to you.

Bro while it seems strange to you, thats what I am currently been paid workinh in FortMacMurray..While other go to camp after 4pm, I stay back and work overtime! Every day of the week my G...Thats how it is in Canada..You work hard and smart, you make shitload of money..Basically work like an elephant and eat like an elephant unlike in Nigeria where I worked from 8am- 6:30pm but still ate like an Ant..

Matter of fact some canadians went home this weekend complaining they cant be away from their family for too long, but I go no where! Lol..I am going to continur raking in the hours and getting my pay..You get the gist now ba?

one of the main reasons we are not seeing a lot of dead bodies in nigeria from this covid 19 is because of the poor medical care in nigeria and Africa as a whole.

In nigeria is either you are sick and dead or your are alive and healthy. The poor medical care in nigeria has made it impossible to have people with medical conditions. Someone with cancer will die within 5 years, someone with common headache will die for no reason. A corn-tree where someone dies after a brief illness.

Very hard to see people in their 80s in exceptions of few grandparents who are genetically superior, not because of proper medical care, of which their ages are highly inflated due to no proper age documentations. ages being given based on how old they look, their old looking can be as a result of poor care, hygiene and village lifestyle.

In 2002 when my grandmother died, her age was dated at 103years. She looks very old, walking with a cane and a saggy back but her last child at the time was just 38. As a very young teen at the time, i told my mom that it was impossible for her mom to be 103. She said the age was estimated based on the stories she told and the oba who was ruling when she was a little girl.

People dieing in the west of covid 19 are basically old folks and people with medical conditions. They have a lot of them over there, because medicine are well practiced there and can keep their people alive regardless whether they are sick or sound. Everyone has the right to live.

Taking someone to the hospital in nigeria and across Africa is like taking a corpse to the mortuary. I have never seen someone with respiratory problem in the street of Nigeria carry oxygen around.

oluayebenz:


You are earning just 4,200cdn monthly even with lots of OT.

That isnt enough to live the best life in that part of the world

chigo4u:

This matter is overflogged, people have their differences and should do what they want. When I talked about moving to sane societies, not everyone will like to be guarded by mopols wielding guns around them and their family, will you also fix bad roads in your vicinity with your $100m? How about the monies spent on running and maintaining your soundproof which could have been channeled to other things.
Yes Nigeria is good for the rich especially those that like to show off, but some people don’t like that kind of lifestyle.
People want you to be patriotic but the politicians who benefit directly from Nigeria all have their families and assets abroad and in foreign currencies.

Manwarrior55:


Good point but I think you’re getting some things wrong.

Nigerians migrating to western countries aren’t unpatriotic and those Indians, Chinese and Lebanese you see running to Nigeria are not so Patriotic.
Nigerians in Nigeria get limited opportunities (you were lucky to have your business still running from your days as student like you claim).

pls and pls .. expatiate on the bolded pls..

I don’t want to derail this thread because this discussion is totally unrelated to the thread but just to give you some info, their are many reasons why a Nigerian can’t make it from Nigeria in the tech world compared to his foreign counterpart, reason being that Nigeria is blacklisted by many companies including payment processors, I can’t believe someone like you with some experience will be arguing this.
Also there is a reason Mark Angel can’t make it as big as his foreign counterpart because their target market is not a tier one country hence the advertising dollars they get for 10k traffic for instance won’t be the same with someone who’s target market is tier one country.

Also their are big youtubbers pulling 1m traffic in one week. From kids to teenagers like Jake Paul. We are just talking about YouTube, their are still other big earners from Affiliate marketing like clickbank, etc. All the information is online, just dig deeper.. Look at these stats of some youtubbers..

https://nl.youtubers.me/mrbeast/youtube-estimated-earnings/en
https://us.youtubers.me/jake-paul/youtube-estimated-earnings

Even Forbes is now listing earnings of youtubbers so you can look up for more information. This is the last I’ll be saying on this!

The reason why millions of Americans are now queueing on food stamps and don't have the 10% of 250k usd is simply because of the lack of saving culture over there, not because of unemployment or suffering .

An average American don't have fear for tomorrow, you get unemployment benefits when you lose your job, social security benefits kicks in as soon you're medically unable to work or as soon as you're 65years, This is the reason they live from paycheck to paycheck and have no reason to save up.

missjekyll:


He isn't .if you have got a huge following on youtube and your content is monetized,you are made. I follow mostly food and travel channels like best ever food review show(I highly recommend him,he just did a review on znigeria), mark Weins. once they put out content,1 million views in 24 hours.

Anybody can make money on youtube . so long as you are monetized and consistently get lots of views,you can resign your day job. No ones mentioned Instagram,I wonder why.

With coronavirus changing the way we entertain, more and more people are staying indoors and watching internet content. I m seriously thinking of starting a youtube channel. I can spout off on trump for hours,I do not like that guy at all.

Yes musicians make money from views

DigitalMallam:

I'm amazed with the way you see and painted Nigeria.
Sorry to say, your likes are bad avert to this country. All what you ever know about your country is all negative. As has been aptly put by some analysts on this thread, no nation has it all.
Your type will be the one to evade tax at all cost here in Nigeria but will comply in US, simply for fear of deportation. And when they prove to you that you're an alein, you begin to shout westerners are racist.
Let me tell you the truth, you are an African and no matter how hard you tried to sell your birthright and dignity for a plate of porridge when the ships are down, you will be told the truth just as Trumps is doing right now.
You're even saddened that covid-19 death have not littered our streets with your unfounded hypothesis. I know you weren't born in the US, why haven't you died long ago before you secure visa to travel abroad since you claim we know nothing about medicine.
Where I work in Nigeria, we usually have this expatriate exchange program, westerners that visited Nigeria confessed during one of the valedictory gatherings, that Oyinbo people that ever visited Nigeria usually cry twice FIRST, when they are told they will be visiting Nigeria (because of the many negative things that is being circulated in the west, buttressed with unpatriotic elements like you) so they believe they are coming to live in hell. SECONDLY, when they come here and experience the opposite and began to enjoy life like never before (good and stable weather round the year, low tax, friendly people, respect etc) and suddenly the tenure expires and told to go back home. Thinking of what they will be missing, they begin to cry again.
When I visited Europe, most of my colleagues couldn't afford to buy or drive a car, they were all going on bicycle.
You will do side hussle investment TB, bond etc in Nigeria without any form of taxation. Opportunities abounds everywhere and that is not enough to cast your own to the dustbin

OgogoroFreak:
what we call money in Nigeria Is actually peanut.

I see you were happy saying you now worth 100M. That's just about $250,000 and you might have been hustling for roughly 20 years.

I know a guy in tech called iyinoluwa aboyeji, he was born 1991. He owns fluttereave - a payment processor and he is already a billionaires in $.

imagine someone bragging about good weather in nigeria when other countries are talking about innovation, infrastructure and good governance. I give up.


A pot of well cooked porridge over bad governance Nigeria my brother

dake40:




Mark Angel targets Nigerian audience. If you run ads online, you can target any specific country. No big deal.......

See, comedy doesn't pay much on ads. Tech reviews, Auto, Travels, Real estate are among the best paying niches because affilliate will pay more to get leads. People watch comedy to get chilled, nothing more, so comedians don't make much irrespective of their countries because they have low cpc.



Payment processors, Affilate companies blacklisting Nigerians does not mean Nigerians don't use them. Nigerians still use PayPal, clickbank and all companies you even think of mentioning.. Payoneer is even more better, gives better rates and rest of mind than PayPal. Most affiliate companies pay with Payoneer. Payoneer works in Nigeria (I use them)

Even if one company rejects Nigeria, there are far better options that will welcome Nigerians.

There is no limitations to what you can achieve in tech.

My take home is €3200 per month after tax. I also get payment of €400 child benefit on all my kids monthly making €3600. My hubby earned more than me because his daily rate is slightly above €350 as IT Engineer But you know what?Owo eko, eko lo ngbe. We spend alot on bills.

Oga why shouldn’t he evade tax ?

Pay tax in USA and you see it with good roads and a system that is working, pay tax in Nigeria and you just got another minister richer.

And those expatriates will definitely love Nigeria cause of the preferential treatment they get for being White, Trust me you won’t get that treatment if you leave your state and move to another state to work in this same Nigeria.

The truth is that Nigeria is a bad place, a very bad place especially for Nigerians and we need to start seeing it for what it is and stop lying to ourselves abeg.

Ghost01:
Haba! Even Flutterwave is not worth up to a billion dollars. Interswitch was valued at $1bn not too long ago.

chigo4u:

People are coming here to show fake patriotism lol. Why won’t a Chinese for instance not want to leave Nigeria when he moves around with several police escorts and treats Nigerians like trash in their own country?
This fake patriotism is why Nigeria will never get better because the docile population love the status quo. Everyone wants to get rich and intimidate the other person. That’s the Nigerian dream. That’s why a governor can simply wake up and demolish someone’s hard earned investment.

chigo4u:

You are the one confusing yourself. That people are using it illegally means it’s not allowed. When you are found you could lose all your earnings. So that’s the limitation.

Paypal is still better than Payoneer for many reasons. That people are using other methods to access these Nigeria blacklisted sites shows they are still better than others!

There are many limitations to what you can achieve in tech, I’ve given you an example of Nigerians being blacklisted which limits us, there are many others.

You didn’t seem to understand my analogy on Mark angel, I suggest you read it again
