Footballers like Messi playing in top leagues collect wages and not salary. Their payment is calculated on a weekly basis.
Oh ! My bad ...so wages are different from salaries, we learn every day. What is the difference?

If you are earning salary pls, find a business to add. No matter what you do, this salary can disappoint.

No wonder the rich gets richer and continue to be because they have mastered the game of money and how best to earn it irrespective of the place they found themselves.







This is not applicable to everybody
I always say it...Salary is grade by grade.
And depends on your profession too.

For some people,their salary is just enough!
Everybody will not do business.
Some of us just wanna be salary earners and we are okay!

Everyone cannot be an employer or entrepreneur. Nigeria that you are in has the highest number of poor people upon say people dey do side-hustle. The issues lie in buying what you don't need, having plenty of children, taking loans for non-asset generating items, not saving and investing, engaging in lots of frivolities that take your money away, not being highly skilled to earn more enormous salaries, not doing delayed gratification, keeping up with the Joneses etc. Moreover, as your earnings increase, whether as a salaried person or entrepreneur, your expense would also increase. The major advantage business owners have over salaried people is tax laws. Governments across the world generally favour entrepreneurs. Anything to pay fewer taxes is perfectly OK. Alternatively, as a salaried person, you skill-up and apply to jobs that pay in foreign currencies or countries where the income tax is very low (Singapore) or there is no income tax (the UAE).

Bills would always be paid, employee or entrepreneur. Manage your expense very well. Some of una get four children, yet una skills have not been updated to enable una earn big salary, why won't you people complain?

Jesus is the only take home that can take us home!

Nigerian salary is like an accumulation of daily pennies. At the end of the month, a major part of it goes into bill payment and other miscellaneous. At the end of the day, one is left with nothing after feeding money. Hian!

Your best plug is to find alternative sources of income, that alll!

This is a very misleading way of comparing cost of living and living standards..

A simple meal of poundo and egusi that you will eat for free anywhere in your village, will cost you nothing less than 30 US dollars in a New York City Nigerian restaurant.

Approximately 15,000 naira.


Do you need to eat FOEREIGN FOOD in NEW YORK? How much is foreign food is Sheraton Abuja?
When you are in Rome, live like the Romans and eat their food.

How much is electricity bill in Lagos Islands?

If you can't survive in New York, downgrade to a different state that matches your income.

Since my job crashed during Covid-19, I have refused to find another job. Employment job only pays bills. I have gone back to the drawing table to master some business acumen and in order to raise capital I will go back to employment job and give myself target for 12 months.

Don't mind them, nah those btc boys, fraudsters covering up with tech. That's how one girl for my uni said her male friend is making $4500 steady monthly from video animation, I asked her to connect me so I fit dey make that kind money too. Since then, babe never reply. The dude already bleeped her common sense out.

Turns out they don't reveal fraud to people. The moment you hear them quoting huge amount of money as their earning, ask them to show you how and they auto enter silent mode.

Every business has a secret, if you expose it, it will cast. Everyone cannot be rich at the same. Just ask God to show you your own way and you will thrive. Another way to get knowledge from someone is to join his group as a servant. Serve him and he may reward you with the secrets if he is a good boss. That way, the God of money will not punish him for selling ideas wealth cheap. Money is energy and energy cannot be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

don't be easily deceived. Nobody earns that. Not everything you see on social media you go believe. That's the salary of the president of the united state's of America. Even 70% of US citizens don't earn up to that amount not to talk of a US company paying a foreigner, a Nigerian at that, that kind of money. Even those in the US who earn that much are entrepreneurs and business people, not people that work for others.

How many Bank MD's & Big 4 Partners, even senior oil staffs with over 20years wealth of experience earn such salary monthly?

Most tech guys in Nigeria do $1k-$3500 monthly.
