Can I Survive In Akwa Ibom With 1M Account Balance At 22? by yolada: 8:33am On Jun 07, 2023 |
Nairalanders please help advice me, this is a matter of life and death I don't want to waste this money ![]() Let me just go straight to the point So I have exactly 1 million naira in my bank account and I'll be 22 by 27th of this month (this is not a flex on anybody please) I don't currently have a job, I live in Lagos and with my parents. But a lot of things happening here and I feel like if I don't leave soon, I might just die. I plan to move to Akwa Ibom state to go and start a new life on my own even though I haven't been there before. I have never smoked a cigarette in my life, I don't smoke. I'm still a virgin, never had sex in my entire life,I don't womanise, I have Zero friends. So my plan is to move to the state, secure a cheap accommodation like a single room self contain that should not cost anything more than 100-120k a year. After I secure accommodation, I plan on searching for a job that can at least pay the bills. And probably set up a POS business with some of the money that someone else can be running for me. I don't eat too much and I know how to cook. Now my question is this. Will I be able to survive for some time in the state with that amount of money pending till I get a job? And how much is the average rent for a single room self contain in akwa Ibom? nlfpmod Myndd44 farano RoyalRoy Disguy justwise lalasticlala - Please for the love of God ![]() 15 Likes |

Are you planning to run away with your parents #1M to far South Akwa Ibom? If you earned that money genuinely (which I doubt), why not continue the business you did to earn that money here in Lagos or start same business in Akwa Ibom ? Why not upskill yourself before leaving Lagos? Acquire soft skills or technical skills that will help you in Akwa Ibom. Why Akwa Ibom ? You want to #JAPA ? You need to come clean so that we can advise appropriately. 109 Likes 6 Shares |

yolada:Okay good.. If you want to stay in the heart of the town, then neither of those business will work, POS na competition for here, and bikes dont really operate in uyo.. And if it is safety you are after, avoid any place close to Ibom plaza, Urua ekpa and ikpa road.. Go for places like Oron road, Aka road, IBB, Atiku.. I wont suggest a business for you but nt too sure of that POS and bike business. 33 Likes 4 Shares |

yolada: Isn't that the same stealing he said .. and why on earth would you drop out? Thank God you brought the matter here . please just take that money and go and finish school first.. then you can relocate with another money... The school you did not finish is reflecting in your business ideas, POS, Okada ... Go back and finish school it shall be well with you..you would hate yourself if the money finishes and you are stranded..but with a degree you can at least get a decent job..or research and build a decent biz 185 Likes 7 Shares |

This is definitely not the kind of advice you want but please take it . Leaving your parents house with #1m saved up from school fees will not bring any positive future but doom . With the kind of business ideas you have in mind, that money is I’ll not last 6months (bills go kill am. Especially the bike business “DO NOT TRY IT “) This is my advice “TAKE IT EASY WITH YOUR PARENTS AND SAVE MORE AND LEARN A SKILL YOU FIND INTERESTING” Any skill will do. The fact that you dropped out of a private University is a big deal for your parent already . For them to send you to a private uni !!! Broh, na big love ooo I understand that some parents do too much but trust me , you can earn that respect by fixing yourself . Apply for a short t course technical skill here in Lagos out of that money and see how they’ll change towards you at home. If they don’t , then continue saving and learning till you have more money . Relocating to a state you never lived is not child’s play ooo .. reason am well . #Goodluck 95 Likes 3 Shares |

Guy, that money will finish cos you obviously siphoned that money off your parents or relatives, if you legit earned that money with your skill/work, it's obvious that the normal cause of action is to relocate to a similar environment and continue your legit hustle, anyway go and learn a trade or digital skills that you love. 17 Likes |

yolada: You need to first fu...ck yourself real good and hard until you come to the realization that transference won't solve your issues. You reflected stu.pidity by dropping out of school and intending to flee home with no skill because you think N1m is a huge sum but it is said "a fool and his money are soon parted". 112 Likes 6 Shares |

yolada:u are not wise Someone is asking u a reasonable question as regards what u asked n u are angry, I believe u will take advice from anyone who doesn’t care so far it suits your narrative See if truly u drop out n u think one million will make u for life I can tell u wholeheartedly today that u will squander d money n go back to those same parents, this time they will put u in mechanic shop n enrol u in part time so u can have sense U think 1m is that much abi, in few months time when u make useless decisions your eye go clear 82 Likes 1 Share |

A married man survived on less than 95k, how can't you survive on 1m, with a good business, you should survive Of a truth, its not easy to manage such amount, but when one is already in such situation, you just have to manage and improvise. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

yolada: you have zero life experiences and you have no job, no skill, no network of friends, nothing at all and you are even thinking of moving into a strange terrain. it is easy for someone with all the above mentioned to survive with 100k in a strange land than for you to do so with even 5 million naira. Worst of all, you want to invest in a business that will put you in the mouth of the streets (POS) in a place you don't know anyone. This shows poor decision making on your part and you are headed for regret. it would have been better if you were to say you want to invest that money on a business you can do anywhere and personally handle by yourself like youtubing, blogging, freelancing. I strongly advice against this move. good luck anyway 51 Likes 1 Share |

superCleanworks:YouTubing yess.... I currently have a channel with 453 subs and 2k watch ours with just 3 Months of uploading content. I just want to move there, get a job that would allow me time to grow the channel to a reasonable sub amount because I don't want to depend on YouTubing for now. and also start another business for added income. The only reason I did not mention YouTubing here is because I felt people will say I'm not serious e.t.c. because you know our Naija people, them no believe in online business. I also plan on going into domain flipping... ![]() 3 Likes |
