LordBiden:Learn how to respect your elders, boy. Uche Gazzuzz was first a mecho before he ventured into car dealing, and until his death, he was still in the business of fixing cars. Bottom line is, there are mechs that are doing fine moneywise. I never even mention Madam Raduautoworks sef. 1 Like 1 Share |

He who finds a good wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord. If you can actually marry someone that is willing to live in the same one room, you can build enough savings to do the needful. Just imagine if she is making N85k too and you keep expenses the same other than transportation and feeding for her, you both can save N50k from both salaries and that will be N600k a year. In 3 yrs, you both can save close to N2m...of course you will delay having kids with her. Then with the money, you create 1 revenue stream or do that after 2 years of savings. Then you can make enough to contemplate getting a bigger apartment to rent. The problem is...most people want to rent a bigger place and be house poor. You can do the right thing at the wrong time or do the wrong thing at the wrong time. Either way, these would be bad moves. Do not be defined by your situation. If you have no plan to marry, then look for ways to further reduce your expenses or increase your earnings legitimately. Breatheon: |

NobleStag007: Yeah! They don't seem to know. My tailor has a car that he sometimes uses for Uber. The car was stolen at the Mechanic's. Without batting an eyelid, he bought another one. You'd think he's a mere tailor but he can conveniently pay the salaries of graduates. |

Mattswaggz: Foreign companies pay people to answer different surveys. This surveys are handled by other companies that pay you. Depending on location, they can pay a lot depending on your currency or peanuts. Prolific is a survey company that pays well, getting an there as a nigerian is something else entirely. Nobody go gree give you updates. If you have any more questions, enter Reddit and search. 2 Likes |

You can check my previous post on some topic where I mentioned my second chance at life. I went back to university at almost 34yrs (official age). Got first salary job at 50k as intern after undergraduate, I got this during service year. Then, official salary at over 500k in less than 1yr after internship. At moment got foreign based remote job that pay in hard currency. Not everyone will got the second chance, but if you have not try, you wouldn't know if the second attempt is breakthrough you need in life. For many years before going back to university, I was of the opinion that you can succeed without certificate but in my cases, I was wrong. PS: My university certificate was required during documentation, not that it is prerequisite, I have the adequate technical skills the company was looking for, (but imagine, if I was unable to get the employment, despite having the skills?) Edit: My third child was on the way, when I got ission to the university. Breatheon: 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Keep your head up. A man's situation can change at any moment. I was broke to a point where I'd usually think of ending things. Lack of courage and the thought of my mama was why I couldn't do it. Till the end of 2019. I could barely save anything from my income. At the beginning of the following year, things started to get better and better. It got so much better in subsequent years till a point where I was earning about 100x of what I used to earn in 2019. A lot of my old problems are gone, but new ones are here. I'll be 30 in a few months, and I'm doing alright financially. But I'm still not in a relationship let alone married. Perhaps it's due to PTSD from my broke days. The thought of being responsible for other people scares me. Even though the financial responsibility I take in my family is more than that of someone with 3 wives. As somebody has said. Age is only there to put pressure on you. Your life doesn't exist in the past or future. Where you have been and where you will be doesn't matter. All you have is this moment. Your life only exists in this moment. And all you can do is make the most out of it. Always ask yourself whether you are doing your absolute best. You have to be honest. If your answer is no, the follow-up question would be to ask yourself what is something you can be doing, that you know would improve your life, but you're not currently doing. The answer should jump at you. It doesn't have to be something drastic or difficult. It could simply be to be greeting your neighbours or come workers who are doing better than you, or start reading for 30mins a day. A lot of the time, what would completely change a person's life is not something drastic. For instance, in my case, I've been on Nairaland for over 6 years, wasting away in the romance and jokes section. I got the ideas that changed my financial life when I started to check out what was happening on the business part of the website. The following year. Things totally changed for me. If your answer to the initial question is yes, then there's nothing to worry about. The amount you are making right now doesn't matter because it will change as long as you keep doing your best. "If you do your best every day, you don't have to worry about the future" - Jordan Peterson Living in the past brings regret and living in the future brings anxiety. You suffer twice when you give yourself anxiety about the future. You may have little control over your current income but you definitely have control over whether it makes or breaks you. The exact same thing can happen to two people. One may allow it to crush them and the other may use it to bring a beast out of themself. It doesn't matter what happens to you, what matters is what you do about it. You need to keep a clear head and prepare for opportunities. Take care of yourself as best as you can. Opportunities may without your knowledge if you allow your current situation to keep you down. Develop a sense of curiosity about what other people are doing to make money and copy them. It doesn't always require you to learn a skill or have capital. You can help other people sell their items and get a commission. People make a lot of money doing this.

LordBiden: And who told you you might not one day be abroad? Or that it is the mechanicism I am sending you to learn? But I guess I can now clearly see why you are scared. You are weak, meaning you are lazy and not willing to learn to work hard for your future, which is what the mechanic I suggested will teach you.

bluefilm: 5:21pm On Jan 03 |
budaatum: But why would you suggest mechanic job for him? Mechanic job is not for the faint hearted at all It is a very tedious and highly technical work Only those who really have ion for fixing cars should go into mechanics It is not recommended for someone who is looking for how to increase their earning power, within a few years And it's true, mechanics don't earn that much It is mainly the well established ogas in the business who are earning quite a lot because of years of experience, expertise and referrals I am an engineer but nothing on this earth will make me go in mechanics! I suggest that the OP go into businesses like solar and computers |

bluefilm: Did you miss my "Do note, other apprenticeship opportunities (like computer mending, or photography etc) may exist and be more up your line"? I suggested an apprenticeship because becoming rich is not for the faint hearted, and learning mechanic will teach him a skill, which he lacks, and show him the hard work required to become rich, which he'd need even if he decides to take your advice and go into business. Please see telim's post below regarding his rich mechanic. telim: And Blitzking's who listed other things one can apprentice in. Blitzking: |

Well, I have seen comments and your reply op... Life has processes. So, if your salary is 85K/month, what are the services you render? What profession are currently plying your trade? All I see here is complaints and no single time you took to tell us the services/profession you can render Many of us today didn't even have the opportunity to earn this much in equivalence when we started. I might not be able to advise you much cos I don't have those information I needed in your epistle. In any case, you need a second hustle. I personally have close to three different side hustle even as A Project Engineer. You spoke about Marriage. Marriage isn't automatic. It starts by making plans, getting a certain partner and understanding your values and road map to a successful home. Talking about business, you can always think big but start small. Just last September, we ventured into wholesales selling of drinks, but, guess what, we took 200k to depot and even the manager was shocked and told us to go gather more money as this said amount is too small to start wholesale. My wife and I understand what we needed. Within few months down the line, a lot have been learnt, more money raised, with proper book keeping, loan was granted and we could say thank you Lord! On business, you have to think big, but start small. Starting small isn't a sign of foolishness or lack of funds. You already have an accomodation. You're putting too much pressure on yourself. Why comparing your age with your accomodation? Who is setting the standard? In life, everyone have their routes and story. In your story, your script and directors are different. You should be grateful that you have that accomodation. Focus on improving yourself and side hustles. There's no late coming when it comes to success You spoke about car... You see to the extent you've allowed social media to control your emotions? At 33, you didn't even thought of those who are still pursuing issions. So many don't even have a job not to talk of salaries. You're earning 85k and already thinking about a car, a family, a business all at once. Why not settle yourself first, be proud of your achievement at this age and be thankful for life. This is a new year, seriously think of some side hustles. Get the necessary skill needed to trade in those areas. Focus on self development within the first half of the year. Some self development are even free with your data on YouTube and Facebook Platforms you will consume massive educational contents for some side hustles. If you intend to rent a one bedroom flat for 450k, nobody is pointing a gun for you to stay in that area. Look for a less environment to stay. No put pressure on yourself Let me hold it here... Find a reason to be grateful at 33 Peace! 5 Likes |
