This guy is among the 1% that tell others back home the truth about working and studying abroad. The other 99% feign good life so as to impress others back home.Staying abroad is not as rosy as it is being portrayed.expecially as an adult,it is not easy to acclimatize 5 Likes |

All i do is work 3 hrs daily and at the end of the month, less than half of what I make goes into rent and energy bills, 150 pounds goes to stocking up for the month, 104 pounds goes for bus ticket for the month and i have excess of about 250-300 pounds( basically in naira about 300k currently) to save.

Bigcoconut: You may not see this but it’s Sunday today and I woke up feeling the same way as you. Now that I look at it, my “situation” isn’t as bad as yours. Yet still, there’s this thing about our brains which makes us forget the things we truly have. The things we should be grateful for. You’re here in Canada. You’ve got a job. You can save at least 10% of your income. You can go out of your house and meet white folks who know their way around Canada. You can be anyone you DECIDE to be in two or three years. You can practice GRATITUDE only for today Sunday. You can take $55 and get a membership at a local gym right around the block. Stop sulking, man! Go eat! 5 Likes 1 Share |

All I can say is this, if you have a good thing going in Nigeria, do not sell it all and throw away just to relocate to the UK or canada. You may be singing the same song this guy is singing before long. If you know you are coming to UK to hustle then roll up your sleeves and see the first few years as your time in the so called trenches. A lot of people who gave up good jobs and sold houses to come here are in shock now that they see that their fancy qualifications and CVs are being used to get factory jobs and cleaning jobs in UK and Canada. In any case, always pray and seek spiritual direction before taking such a huge decision. Because you can afford to do something doesn't mean you should. Dear op, don't mind these bitter people spilling vitriol on your post. You didnt borrow their money to get to where you are and thus you don't need their permission to leave if you so desire. You wear the shoes and know where it pinches. If you feel you can still salvage something of your life in Nigeria and are absolutely sure you cannot bear the Canada thing at least until you are done with school and your schedule frees up abit, then do the needful. I wish you the best. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

1Sharon You might just set a new precedent. Then again you might need more time to adapt 5-10yrs Then again i feel America is the best place for japarains. Semi skilled workers like hairdressers, truck drivers make alot of money. Yes, here in the US, jobs are available if you want to work even with your high school certificate or with no school certificate. Just be sure you have your genuine documents and your work permit. Not talking about those with visit visa o. You'll be amaze at the amount you'll be receiving at every payday even when you're paying high Bill's. 3 Likes |

It's obvious you were never a hustler when you were in Nigeria. You got everything easily. Now you are abroad where you have to work your ass out to pay bills, the matter come dey taya you. Stop complaining and learn to hustle. I know many people in that same Canada doing great. Laziness does not pay. |

Seagodess: Money dey everywhere in all part of the globe. Two things are just prerequisites BEFORE you can lay claims to the golden key that opens the door : 1. Your legal permit in the country. 2. The values you possess. Are they much sought after values. If you don't have both as stated above, you might be building a house in Nigeria, but you know truthfully you are living below the poverty line where you live and slaving away! 3 Likes |

Seagodess:I wonder what sort of job he does that his body aches for long seeing that the whites have devised means to take stress off the body as much as possible. Alot of times I’d see certain jobs and start laughing because if it were in Nigeria, body go tell you but here, they have machines for almost every thing just to ease stress on the body. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Bigcoconut:/ Hustling abroad will be very difficult if you are already living comfortably in Nigeria. You bought into the hype. You must give yourself at least two years before things start making sense to you. Apart from nice buildings and clean environment, you will work like a horse more than in Nigeria to survive. / 2 Likes 2 Shares |

The same Canada Nigerians are working hard to travel for studying and comfort, this one is complaining. Abeg you are lazy as someone said. Why can’t search for another job and keep on managing till you find a comfortable job in Canada. Coming back isn’t good too. Endure the pain and keep on working. You don’t know millions of people can learn from your story. Canada is still much preferable than UK pepos really rushing to. 1 Like |

Tadadobe:Africans are like that. They don't want to hear the truth and see any word of caution as discouragement or even hatred. The one who see danger hardly alert others but allow them fall into same trap so they can become brethren in mystery. If you are overweight, look for office job. I can't imagine what will make someone work for one day and have body pain for many days. The OP is not telling us something. 1 Like |

When you inform Nigerians that abroad isn't the paradise that many with ulterior motives and some with innocent intentions tell them that it is, Nigerians often respond resentfully. Perhaps informing Nigerians that Abroad and Nigeria represent similar levels of difficulties but different types may help. For instance, using the following extreme scenarios as examples: struggling to survive on the streets of towns and cities without help or job, harassed by police and unsympathetic authority represent one type of difficulty Versus surviving life imprisonment in a large jail where you are provided with roof, three square meals, opportunities to learn trade and only need to contend with warders, other inmates. prison authority regime and boredom of incarceration. The former is like Nigeria and the latter is like the West. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Bigcoconut:I believe you raised enough money for your studies and got a study visa based on that merit. Why the need to work in the cold ? Regarding money I believe you can make money anywhere (Canada, Nigeria , Sudan, Thailand, India….)thus I don’t get why people spend so much to move to Canada hoping to make it big here |

The error in many people's thinking is in feeling that once you leave Nigerian you won't need to struggle. Anywhere you go in life, there is always need to work to earn money. Earlier people realise that, the better for them. |
