Chiggsglover: See how many Africa stuffs you can spot. I know these pics are actually superb but Nairaland is trying to save money, and I don't blame them. Try this app (Lit Photo), upload the original photo and compress or resize it, will be okay to upload on Nairaland.

olatade: How about lectures, non academic staffs and even the security guys that will be employed.
Building universities creates employment opportunities to bro You made a point though but consider the numbers; How many lecturers will be employed? How many security guards? How many cleaners? Now compare that to the massive number of workers that'll be employed in a factory. And in few years the factory will expand, building branches in other places and employing more workers |

EgunMogaji2: I don't know about respect.
Here's what I would advise my 25 year old sef.
Learn a trade. Be the best at that trade.
Even if you throw stones at a light pole all day. After a while you'll become the best at throwing stones at a light pole and people will pay to watch you throw stones to hit a light pole at 50 yards blind folded.
Most of the traditional self made millionaires in the USA (let;'s remove the dot com folks) are plumbers, electricians, home builders, carpenters, etc
That's what I'll tell my 25 year old sef.
There's got to be something you're good at or you have a passion for. Is it working on cars? Is it making custom furnitures? Something that you can do and offer at intentional level because if you do then you'll get paid premium international level prices.
The biggest thing that my age/exposure has afforded me is the luxury of thinking outside the box. Maybe before I left Nigeria I looked down on mechanics as Baba Mufu. But living in the USA exposed me to the fact that most of the parts and design from the vehicles that we cuddle in Nigeria are made/tested/designed by the small Baba Mufus of the USA.
I was opportune to live next to an industrial complex back in the days in Orange County. One unassuming mechanic shop there did a lot of work for Nissan factory.
Anyways, long story short. Think outside the box. Learn a trade that you have a passion or. Be the best at that trade. Watch the money flow in. Abi the end game no be money?
Good luck. And may our blessings find us wherever we are at. Hmm....motivated. PS: I'm one of the dot com folks troubling you with adverts everywhere you go on the internet  |

you4me: Thankyou jack sparrow I’m your secret admirer I’ll do that just immediately brother Just saw that your thread has been closed, Justwise mistook 'Austrian' for 'Australian'. But why not try Germany, I was just doing some research for you and I saw where someone said "if you can afford Germany's blocked account you can afford Austria". That 'might' mean that Germany is a better option financially. If you still prefer Austria then search for Emmanuelosa and try get in touch with him. |

you4me: Brother i saw schools with tuition as low as €1600 in Austria how easy or tough is it to get the visa There seems to be no Austria student visa thread, you can create one and ask your questions there. You'll get more contributions and other people that are interested will learn from there too. My 2 cents. |

Danielhouston: Thank you to everyone that has been following this thread. It’s been a pleasure sharing these stories with you and I loved every minute of it.
Unfortunately the thread has gone in a different direction now. Not what I expected but I know how the internet can be. I will focus on other things now and maybe check back next week to see if we can continue.
I love you guys, never stop dreaming and never stop trying. It will get better. Sorry man, you're not used to the usual Nairaland thing. I apologize on their behalf. Even though I don't have any interest in Germany, I've learnt a lot from every piece of information you shared, I appreciate you for that, I really do. Take some time off and check back again, the trolls will be gone. Stay safe out there man. |
