Your made men - bank MDs, CEOs, Ministers, Heads of big public parastatals, Permanent secretaries etc - are all working for salary till 65 but some ignorant itunes gift card low budget yahoo boy in your friend's list will tell you he can never work for salary & he is his own boss yen yen yen.

Yet in his life, he may never reach the heights of those men I highlighted above while you can if you know your onions.

Okay.

The most useless comment I have ever heard from motivational speakers is "Salary is the bribe they pay you to forget your dreams"

Lol.

DoggoneDogg:


The only problems I see here are their tolerance level & personality, not the jobs.

Ignorant man. Not everyone is built to work for others it is not a tolerance or personality thing. Everybody cannot be an employee no matter what.

It might some people years to realize this.

Okay.

There is job and there is also work.The CEO,MD ,heads of parastatals are career people who either owns the business or run it.The work the op is talking about is the underpaid, stressful and bullied kinds of work.

It's not always about the money. Some work just to keep fit and for social status not monetary reward.

Hope you're aware that as an entrepreneur, you say "yes sir" even more than a salary worker.

A salary worker only needs to call his superiors in the office "sir" but an entrepreneur go greet gateman, security, driver, houseboy and receptionist "yes sir" because he nor know who wan pay am.

Keep deceiving yourself.


The only set of people that don't say "yes sir" are yahoo boys & oloshos. Do you belong to that category??

I don't knw

Well, those CEOs and MDs went through those so-called stressful jobs before they bagged those top jobs.

If you think you will conclude NYSC today & become a supervisor, then you must be mad.
I'm not even going to sugarcoat it.

Nonsense & entitlement mentality.

Nor jus mind those ones...
Real salary job actually trumps many entrepreneurships.

SimplyFacts:


My brother, laziness is killing most of the so called Yahoo boys. They neither want to say "Yes, sir" to anyone nor use their hands to lift anything. It's a pity these lazy ones are also birthing children coz I wonder the kind of training (if not fraudulent acts) they would give to the children. I have them around & I do have some pity on the future of this country.

I bolded 'most' because some of them work,,,,, with discontentment though.

See response I gave this entitled guy. Na the so-called entrepreneurs talk "yes sir" pass.

Salary is the amount of bribe they pay u to suspend ur dreams and to help another man achieve his own dream.
When do u start? As early as u can. Start small and grow from there.
NB:
1. Keep ur business and family completely separated. Never bring business home.
2. Never hire who u can't fire.
3. Have a monthly and yearly target.
4. Make money and japa united...

Go and read the third or fourth relpy... Are you living a better life than those bank CEOs, head of government service and MDs of multinationals who still earn salary

The fact that you are self employed doesn't mean you will condemn salary work. Salary work is not bad. It depends on what you are earning as salary.

Its also OK to advice a low salary income earner to start a business and not condemn salary work completely. Salary get levels

There are jobs and then there are JOBS.

You don't expect the likes of Chamberlain Usoh, Seun Okinbaloye, etc of Channels TV and other top media houses to quit their jobs simply because they want to be entrepreneurs. These guys interview top government officials and other industries experts.


At what point should a person quit a salary job?

The answer is "at the point where you no longer find fulfilment in that job".

Lack of fulfilment could be due to
1. Poor pay
2. Not learning new things
3. No hope of career growth
4. Lack of freedom, etc

We all want to be the boss someday, but if being a subordinate gives me fulfilment, I'm in.

Not everyone is cut out for business. Some people are better off in a paid employment till they retire and then live on pension and profit from investments.

Do not be deceived, business isnt for everyone neither is a salary paying job for everyone. What is more important is financial management.

Everyone is not cut out for business doesn't stop you from developing ways to be business savvy. Everything ones know was learnt here on earth. Although some people are highly gifted.
I know people working for over 15 years - a graduate ( NCE, OND, HND, BSC, MSC) earning 50,000 per month in Lagos in this abysmal Buhari economy. Won't you advise that person to be cut out for business to augment their income?

Romanoff:
Depends on how much he's earning o and where he works.

If you have a permanent employment with NNPC or CBN, work until them pursue you comot there.

this Crack me up

Like i stated, neither is eveyone cut out for salary too. I know a Bsc holder earning 4m naira monthly as salary. What does he need business for?

The guy earning 50k should either look for another job or look for business to do. I said it goes both ways. Find the one that suits you. Either ways, manage your funds well - thats what is important.

At least,a supervisor is good for a start.

Oga nah lie ooo,watin I wan use dream do,so footballers that are earning salary are killing their dreams ba, continue make motivational speaker day decieve you,nogo look for better work wre day pay better money.

I will respond only once:
1. Salary is good, it will give u an average lifestyle or what u consider rich, but profitability will skyrocket u to a much higher level giving the same time frame.
2. Wealth is born from dreams: Ur thought creates ur feelings, ur feelings creates ur actions but the quality of ur action determines the quality of ur results..
3. If ur asked to choose between a job and a business, most will choose a job. The correct answer is choosing a business because a business will create a fortune for u with time.

I can go on and on but if ur poor in ur mind, u might never never understand what I will be saying. Iv done the same for myself by resigning from a well paying bank job and creating mine from the scratch. Most people said the samething ur saying 5yrs years ago but today they hide when they see me. Iv not only made myself rich, I also made my elder brother and eldest sister rich by showing them the samething am sharing with u now. Over 500 are rich today through me...
In summary, people need various goods and services. Think of one and provide it with style and a big difference and u will become rich with time. As u make ur bed, so will u lie on it. Wealth is not in places, it's in people..

You can never compare a salary job to a real business, no matter what you think about. How many workers get to that MD,Ministers etc. Or even get to work in a government parastatals.

When you have mastered a trade, skill or a specialist in certain field

when I started my corporate work at 25, I told myself that I would have my own hustle by 40. The stress that investment banking work brought on me was too much. Waking up by 4:30am and coming back by 10pm. The rat race was simply too much and was taking so much on my mental and emotional well being, even though the pay package and other emoluments were good.It provided me with all the necessities of life and I was financially doing relatively ok.

I registered my own consulting company by the side and was waiting when the side hustle could pay at least 50% of my total salary. That never came to pass as the Solo Consulting space itself is even competitive. Most jobs came through referral. I never got any consulting job based on submission of application. By 2016, I couldn't take it again and resigned to face my solo consulting. This is the fifth year and, I am yet to gross the annual salary I enjoyed when I was still working.

Any regret? No. I have my peace, wake up at my own time, visit my parents and enjoy good moments with loved ones during the weekends without considering the impending coming Monday. I am on my bed typing this, reviewing a document sent to me by a client. My mental and physical health is top-notch and I have developed myself beyond my imagination. Money wise, I am still far from getting what my corporate employment paid but I am far happier now than when I was working in the bank.

They will not understand.

Any person who mocks a banker for quitting his job is an idiot.

Honestly, that's not good enough. If you are working and receiving the kind of huge salary that those people are receiving, you still don't need to wait until they purse you. Because after your retirement, you might not know what next!
There was this white man working with BP, a top boss for that matter. Coronavirus struck last year and he was asked to go like few others. You knew what he did? He committed suicide! Because he didn't see that coming.

No matter the kind of salary you're earning, prepare your own exit and get ready to leave before they ask you to leave. Don't wait till 65 or the agreed last day. I have been telling my brother the same thing for the past 5 years and asking him about his future plan because the last day in office is slowly approaching.

Welcome on board bro. Nothing better than being able to spend your day the way you want, set your own pace, when to work and when to sleep.
I worked with Dangote Cement Transport for just five months, I nearly developed stomach ulcer among other things. I wanted to quit but the fear of family and friends tagging one "unserious fellow" wouldn't let me. The man finally sacked us (about 800 employees) after cleaning his garbage and I was about the only employee who was happy for being sacked! I'm glad that I choose this current path.

Lol.

You called it useless comment because of the few employees who are being paid enough salary? How many employees are even earning enough salary? May be 5% of the total employees in Nigeria.

That means the people you listed above can still quit, they wouldn't be the first to do so.
