You've tried...
You mean that YOU've had experience with virtually all these businesses?

Anyway,don't blame them because it is because of their educational background.
You should understand what I mean better because the way an educated personnel will handle that business will so much different if at all they can go into this biz putting aside all sort of words people will say.

Infact,you just opened my eyeballs to the additional products that I will be advertising and selling on my site.No Joke and watchout for it.

Thanks once again for this inspiration...

All these money you are mentioning, are they that easy to pool together? I'll rather take a job that gives me 60k every month over a job that gives an average of 2k daily.

Baba ijebu lotto agents make an average of 5000 naira daily depending on how you can market the product with ur mouth. That's a whooping 150k monthly only if you will not invest all the money back into the business in return for millions that may not come.

It depends on the area. If you sell marijuana on my street, you will make far more than that. . . .For ashees, it depends on where you operate and how you operate.
Pls give accurate info, dont fool people. . .

I am interested in white-collar jobs

I love this! and I endorse this.

Another one for students is project writing. write as long as you've got a good I.Q. You will make good money from other students especially, Mature students, Part-time students and even your fellow course mates.

I did it then in school.. I writing a thesis for a masters student in my 400l grin grin
