So I currently work as a system admin in a new generation bank where I earn almost 500k while also having a side hustle that pays me 400dollrs monthly, I’m thinking of relocating as my sis and her husband have been on my case to migrate, I am in my early 30 no serious relationship just figuring if japa is the way cos my remote job actually pays me better if I’m here than leaving just need advice on this.

People are running away because Nigeria is not a safe place to be... it has nothing to do with money for some people, escape if you can.

This is lovely

YangaBabe:
farming, put in good work and dedication and see how you'll flourish big time.

Thank you.

ibechris:
U must be very lucky to be among this age brackets.

That is because most of us who just clocked 40 or above can not reverse the hands of nature.

However, this the time and age when u should have nothing to do with laziness especially the men amongst u, hustle, work smart and hard if possible, do not cheat to enrich yourselves... it will backfire badly.

Save money, this is one crucial area that most of us don't keep up with. Many see this as the biggest task ever and like I have written in one of my writes up here, it was the money I saved during my early age as a student and during my service year that has made me what I am today. Save to invest, without savings u can't invest.

Avoid friends who only take from u, there is a motive in every relationship except for the needy among us, any relationship that is one sided and takes more from u...brothers and sisters, pls run oh.

Education is good but learn a handiwork, it is essentially important, especially a trade. U can never go wrong in it. Most igbo guys have demystified these areas and have hit it big time. The situation in the country has forwarned us that, there is not future for many in 8-5 jobs these days as most guys wished they had learnt a trade before now. After NYSC many of u will understand what I am trying to say.

Have a target, there is no rich man without a target, in fact, every organisation has its own target which they intend to achieve within a given time.

Learn to discuss ur plans with ur parents and see how far u can go...but in all, plan your life adequately

Take risk...it is very important u engage yourself in business that is profitable and risky at times and this will help u to be smart and better in any engagement u find yourself. To add to this, i have never seen or heard any rich man that has not lost money but there are many countless poor men and women who have never lost money,hence their poverty.

Finally, plan your life early and live a good live afterwards.

Good luck.

pls what business can I start with 1M?

1. You can marry the most beautiful, understanding woman on earth....But on some bad days, both of you are going to wonder how and why you ended up with each other.

2. Women have a different perspective of love. They see tolerance of their BS, PDA, and allowing them make important choices for the home as love. To us Men, love is simply protecting and providing for your family.

3. In marriage, you the man will work your ass off to make sure your family never lacks the basic necessities of life and some luxury if you can afford it; and your wife, who is the number one beneficiary of your provision will wake up one day and complain that you are always working too hard and never having time for her.

Never ever fall for this emotional blackmail by taking your hands off the plough. The respect, love and showers of praise you will receive in marriage depends on your ability to do your Number Job as a Husband; which is protect and provide for your family.

4. Expect see finish....You can be a powerful politician or a successful businessman outside your home. At home, you are just an ordinary man that walks around with his bare bumbum

Your last point though

wow, that's serious. Congrats.

kingphilip:

It varies per person and entirely dependent on what the person wants to stand on with.

I'm asking you bro, not anyone else.

You can find love anywhere you are. So what you should look for is where you can get a good job and then treat yourself well. Be where you can be seen. When advances start coming, behave well and don't forget your pains (don't be cheap, don't be hard, it's up to your to find the middle ground).

kingphilip:
Job Hunting these days is even a job on its own.

Not to the talk of the heartless employers he have who give ridiculous job descriptions with little pay that hardly takes the employee home.

Can't wait to be out of the job market.

Just asking, how much do you think is enough to take you out of the job market and to stand on your own?

Daviestunech:
Good day my fellow nairalanders...

Before I start this my write up...I want to say a prayer that may God provides a tangible jobs to those that are dare need of a job..(Amen).


So I was working with this company as an inventory manager ( name withheld).. when I was offered the employment letter, I went through it and it's was really a challenging one...why because I will be working Monday -saturday 8-6 no off days, infact no public holiday, even on Easter day, we were given just a day holiday. And there's is 500 deduction everytime you are late to work.

Well, since this is the only offer letter that came in that period of the series of interview I went, I just have to accept it since there's a lot of bills to pay. And mind you, the pay was just slightly above 60k. Though they were series of bonuses that will b paid if target are met.. and luckily we met a lot of target and I was paid the bonuses two times .. though they are still owing me some bonuses even when left, which the management said I will be paid the rest by September.


So I started last year September.. well, the work wasn't that stressful unless some certain days, ...but the work took all my time, why because I don't have time for my self..even time to flex on weekends with my friends ... even on public holidays of which my friends are always at home chilling, me don reach work. Latest my 8am.. and some certain things I don't like about the work which I won't mention here.

So along the line,I felt tired about the job so I was planning for my exit around April this year...

There's this notion about people that...u just don't leave your job before seeking for another alternative, because you don't know when the next one will come...

Around April -may this year, I was already applying for another job, luckily was getting interview invite some were online interview why some were physical interview.. all the interview I got, I couldn't attend anyone..why?... Because of the nature of this my job...I got interview from konga, from jiji and so on..but the nature of my job won't permit me to go.

So I was reasoning how will I navigate to get good alternative.. well I just took the bold step by quitting first..and face whatever is coming...

So I gave them notice that I will b leaving by June ending (last month).. My plan was to rest a little bit before applying for another jobs again, luckily I might see another one with better pay and all that...

Early this month, I was still apply for jobs because savings don dey run down and y'all know wetin this country dey talk because even person way dey work dey see shege talkless of a jobless person.

Luckily I got my first invite from this oil $ gas logistics company at ikoyi.. we did a virtual interview before I was invited for a test at their company at ikoyi..

On the day of the test, I dressed up ND I was on my way.. I got to oshodi I board a bus going to obalende at oshodi..I heard 1k for the tfare money. Naso I shouted say 1k just from oshodi to obalende. Naso the conductor shouted back at me if u no dey go oga come down...

I was contemplating that won't I just come down and go home , because I don't know if I will pass the test or offered the job, make I no just waste this tfare, this money would have take care some things and enjoy myself.


Luckily the conductor collected his money even before the bus got filled up...so ginger to collect the money back and go home..no dey my body again...so I just made up my mind..make I just go.

I got to the place...a very Serene environment and all....


The lady ushered me to the test room...omo the test I did there pass jamb own...

I did 6 test which include:

Math test
Verbal test
Reasoning test
Excel test
Power point test
Typing test

And mind you, I will still do the normal interview again...

I was like which kind wahala b this and secondly I didn't even eat or drink any water before I got there...

I just did the test anyhow..of wish I failed 3 woefully.. and only did well at the power point test, typing test and reasoning test.

I was called in for the proper interview...I met a lady and we started... along the line the CEO joined us.... the interview lasted almost an hour...with series of drilling questions which I did my best to answer them well...


Naso the CEO ask the lady to present her my test score, what came out of the CEO was why did you fall woefully like this, omo I just didn't say anything..I was just looking...he said this test is really poor...well to cut this short...he just said, they will get back to me...in my mind I HV already concluded I won't be called back..

Job seekers take notes of these please,:

After the online interview before I was called for the test, I sent an appreciation email to them...

After the test and the physical interview I did the same again...


On Monday this week I still send a follow up email to them again...


But Glory be to God I was sent an offer letter yesterday with pay x2 my former place, even came with airtime ND data allowance, health insurance, Monday -friday 9-5 ND all....


So, I just have to share these to inspire someone out there..
Abeg make una forgive my English errors ooo..
Thank you all and God bless.

If I may ask, how many people took the test apart Sir?

Jennyclay:

3pl Logistics

I understand logistics. What's 3pl?

richard870:
3pl Logistics

What's 3pl? I understand logistics.

engineerabj:


If you have a building already sir,you just need 3.5 to 4million sir

That's quite much.

Bukola94:
u can have 300k to 500k. That's the amount I used to deposit for my boss into bank. Is like she got people for Lagos who use to sent the drugs and medical gadgets from Lagos. I used to display the drugs in the show glass. It is lucrative if you get customers. My boss used to do free medical check up once in a while and do collect token of 500naira or 1k from some big men and madam who used to come to her shop for medical check up. Are you a pharmacist ?

I didn't know it pertains to pharmacy.

ibechris:

brother, kindly patronise me. I sell for one of the largest and reputable real estate companies in Nigeria. Check my signature.

mikeapollo:


1. Land, real estate.
2. Look for credible stocks with history of consistent dividends and buy. e.g. GT, Zenith etc. Cool profits without stress !

Thanks me later

how does this stock work Sir? Also, is it possible it turns 1M to 2M in the whole of a year?

engineerabj:


Open a pure water factory and see how things becomes for you.
I am an engineer,I set up both sachet and bottle water factories and complete installation

what is the minimum initial capital to start this?

richard870:
A service-oriented business is your best bet

for example?

KingintheNorth:
Guys I'm asking for a friend , if you are based abroad and earn 2.5 million naira after tax, what would you invest in Nigeria??

I work for the largest Real Estate Company in Nigeria called Billionaire Realtors Group (BRG). Very reputable and verse, let me help your friend with land and buildings that will forever guarantee him as a wealthy investor.

aboyaji:


I do not have a grounded knowledge about car parts. The only thing you can do is get dirty.

What I mean is you need to get involved in the spare parts business right in the market and join what other guys are doing there by identifying with some Ogas as a hustler. Don't go at this age to start learning the trade. No!

Just go and become a hustler in the market. Like someone who gets a customer and get his own share when the customer buys an item. Just tell customers that you have everything.

Thank you so much.

Samakus:


Auto Spare Parts is a capital intensive business. I do not think that this amount is good enough unless you want to take a long time before stabilising.

Need I include that that line of business requires expertise. If you want to venture into it, learn the trade for atleast 1 year. Very important

Thank you so much.

Samakus:


Minimum of 2m

Because in business, there are days even months you will incur losses. It may or may not be your fault but it will come. Having a good capital base makes you stay afloat to navigate that phase and stabilise. Then, you boom if you know what you're doing and grace is upon you

Not bad. Do you think this amount or slightly less can start the business of autos spare parts?

aboyaji:


They're readily available in the Nigerian markets.

For example, I was speaking with a friend today. He has a job but he just opened a shop for accessories. Most charging cables we buy for 1k in the market to charge with, he sells them for 400. It costs him 150 to buy. Quality Charger head costs him 400 but he sells 660. Market people sell it for 1500.

When you want to venture into such business, go to the market and meet a friendly business man to explain things to you.

Good luck.

Please start with these little things. Don't jump into money consuming ventures.

God bless you brother. I want to venture into car or motorcycle spare part, do you have any idea how to go about it?

Freshtruth:
You should be thinking of Business not skill your 4 months salary we set me for life bro abeg add me for watapp make I advise u sir

Kindly advise me too bro

aboyaji:
Why?

Just give yourself like a year and half and save like 200k from it. You should be getting like 3.5m as savings.

Use it to set up phone accessories shop where you don't add much gain to your sales. You could opt for wholesales.

would this require importation or the goods would be bought in Nigeria and resold in Nigeria.

Samakus:
If I'm earning that amount, i will aggressively save up for 2years and start a decent business

Business is where the money is

Like how much do you eye saving in that 2 years to start a business?

Bukola94:
have work at Kedi before,they used and dump me they are still owing me till today. So if you have money just be independent on your own,run things for yourself, don't let anyone deceive you

How much can someone have to be on his own (minimum)?

Bukola94:
have work at Kedi before,they used and dump me they are still owing me till today. So if you have money just be independent on your own,run things for yourself, don't let anyone deceive you

Wow. Meanwhile I know one of their top officials building a nice house close to my place.

Bukola94:
like pharmaceutical firm,that deals in nature/herbal drugs/medicine

Yes, but the point here is, I'm trying to find out if they are legit or not, because I think to they are.

TemplarLandry:
QNET, Kedi, and GNLD are all fraudulent.

I thought Kedi was a multinational Chinese firm?
