Good morning, esteemed Nairalanders. I am currently passing through a quite challenging phase in my life. I don't have a university certificate even though I spent four years of my life there due to missing scripts. I have been unemployed for months now and it has taken its toll on me financially. At this point, I live with my stepfather and my mother and I have to depend on them to survive. It is frustrating because my stepfather wants me out of the house and I totally understand. I am close to 30.

I have tons of business ideas but no capital. I am not lazy, in fact I have worked dead end jobs that paid meagre wages just to survive. I have worked as a receptionist, storekeeper,gateman,foot courier and even as a loader at the airport. ventured into having my own blog but I got hacked just yesterday(I still don't understand the basics). Recently, I paid a recruitment agency to source for a menial or odd job for me(maybe as a bartender or hotel supervisor)just to put some money together and invest in my ideas but to no avail. I am still being asked to 'hold on' with the end of 2017 in sight. I am focused and willing to start small .

I am considering leaving Lagos for Osogbo and I would love to know the opportunities there for me. Family members and friends have turned their backs on me.These days,I easily slip into depressive moods and I know I would have tried taking my life if I wasn't such a coward .I would appreciate any form of advice or help from anyone before making a decision that will affect me positively or negatively. I just want someone kind enough to give me a tip or just "show me way" as we used to say out here. Thanks.

Hard luck mehn
