engrrichie92: UK 4K monthly is > than 1.5 M in naira. Let us first start from the exchange rates. 580 official rate for GBP vs Naira. So 4,000 x 580 that's approx. 2.3 M equivalent in Naira. UK has better Job securities and values skills more which would put you at an advantage at long run. You said 4K after tax deductions that means you have 4k pounds to yourself which has a large margin. In UK foods are as low as 1 pounds, pence depending on what you want. Though, it depends on your location, high profile areas when it comes to accommodation pay monthly(they all do besides), can pay as high as 2k pounds monthly but you can get very decent places from 800-1500 pounds monthly. Low areas are as cheap as 500 pounds (single room). You don't need to get mattress, bed, TV you just pack in your clothes and food in there. There is no place like home, certain job advantages, social life you enjoy in Nigeria, you can't try it over in UK. So much to compare though. Go to UK it boost your travel/immigration records. 1 Like |

If you expect the individual to cut down on his balling, then it agrees with the principle that he would get less for more. |

Ammishaddai:The fact that you even had to insult that guy for making a valid point, makes one wonder how some people even reason. So you're saying people in Nigeria dont pay bills? What sort of ignorance is this? Do you know how much it cost to fuel a diesel generator for 12 hours a day? Do you even have a clue how much a unit of electricity cost in Nigeria today? Do you know that in Nigeria you literally pay for your own security and pay to fix the roads leading to your gate? No comfortable person in Nigeria risks going to govt hospitals when sick; do you have a clue how much it cost to be treated in a decent private hospital in Nigeria? 2 Likes |

For someone thats just doing it for japa sake, no job offer or anythiing just won escape poverty, should be the one to consider bills and savings over there but As for you going on job bases with 4k pounds monthly, man don't seek any other advice or opinion, infact by now you should already have carried your luggages and on the way to airport sef.. You are lucky man, just know millions of nigerians now hoping and praying for your kind opportunity so dont waste it at all No dull am! engrrichie92: |

engrrichie92:As someone who lives abroad (not UK) , I'll say £4k monthly isn't a lot but not bad if you will live within your means. There are definitely bills to pay such as ( rent,insurance, energy(electricity), phone bills etc.). Like someone mentioned, you might not be able to live a "big boy" life like you will do in Nigeria but the truth is it gets better each day as you unravel opportunities. Living abroad comes with lots of benefits that you might not enjoy in Nigeria (few examples are, less/no fear of insecurity, good roads, constant electricity, clean water, great health care, quality education if you have kids( I know UK has one of the best education systems) and many more). |

avalon7: The idea is to compare a guy earning 1.5 million Naira a month with one earning 4k pounds. If the 4 k pounds guy has to avoid Netflix, then he's definitely worse off than the Naira earner. 3 Likes |

OP this bro has said pretty much everything. There's value in travelling tho. Take this first offer as the stepping stone. I believe (strongly) that subsequent ones will be lucrative because of the UK work experience this new offer would have given you and it will be easier to access better opportunities. Ammishaddai: |

engrrichie92: The first reaction of a lot of people will be for you to just go. First of all, accommodation is expensive, then other bills, even worse if you have a family. My opinion is if you could get this then you're good enough to get a better one. 1.5M in Nigeria will do more for you than 4K pounds in the Uk. A lot of Nigerians are misinformed or clouded by situations that they feel relocating means their lives have changed. If you decide to go, it should come from a place of strategy that is if it will help your career and not just for survival. 2 Likes 1 Share |

PeaceJoyLove: Hello, can you please stop with the scaremongering. I think it's quite distasteful at this point. We all have families in Nigeria & they are not kidnapped or raped yet, we have lived in Nigeria all our lives and not died yet. People go back home in December & still spend time with their families. Container hasn't fallen on anyone I know personally, even though It happens quite often. Nobody is discouraging anyone from travelling, people should take that personal decison by themselves based on what they want in life. 1.5M in Nigeria is a lot of money, especially if you aren't living in Lagos. People are getting jobs in Nigeria amidst the unempoyment problems, so not every one is jobless and cannot get a 200k job. Nobody I know has encountered Boko Haram, my family lives in the South & it is peaceful. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Ammishaddai: You suggestion is okay, but I will advise him to go for the UK offer as I believe the 4k pounds offer is an introductory salary for him into the UK. With the experience he will get in the UK job and further training, his next Job might be a very big and juicy one. |
