Onyi22: How much do you have yourself? The truth you don't know is this- rich men can't settle for broke girls who have nothing to bring to the table. Let's assume you're broke, are you breathtakingly beautiful? How packaged is your ManCHESTer and ASSnal. If No to those question, you better start looking for blue eyes to charm wealthy men, or get a loan to work on your body. 26 Likes |

My advice to all young people reading this: Whatever you want to do, please be consistent with it.....even if money is not coming in at the start, don't quit to start another thing afresh.....just stay focused, consistency is one smartest way to excel......if you can open a shop and be selling mobile phone chargers in one street, just make sure you are always in that shop 8am - 7pm if possible. Don't ever give people the impression that you are not always available. Just sit down there and be browsing your phone or counting people passing, believe me, you are building a future sustainable business place. Let everybody on that street know you as the phone charger seller! Be proud of it, and watch out. Try this for 2 years in whatever you are doing now and come back for testimony ![]() 105 Likes 10 Shares |

Nice thread, OP. I've never been unemployed, though I won't say I'm financially okay. My side hustles sustained me throughout by schooling days (ND and HND) and during my service year. I stayed at home for few months after I finished service last year October. I started my retail business early this year and it's to God be the glory.... 5 Likes |

Oops! Ok I graduated far back served and almost a year after my discharge from NYSC ...my cousin whom was then working with a multinational company one of those Schlumberger affiliates then pleaded with me to come help him write a promotion examination .I went with him and after the exams the results were announced and he came up amongst the tops..so happened that some of the guys that turned up for the examination knew me very well and raised alarm when their names weren't listed amongst the successful candidates and the test was eventually cancelled and rescheduled for another day as the slots were for host community . I was relatively very young then, the company liaison officer appealed to me to enter for the examination on my own standing but I turned the offer down because back then my views on people that go to drilling operations on rig platform are non university graduates or dropouts, a view I still regret up until now. Most of those guys are now big boys , some international staff earning hard currency and with properties in choice areas around town. Well fast forward, I wrote interviews in two companies I was successful in both, one is an EPC company that is into power and energy solutions and the other is a drilling/,oil servicing company, the former offered to pay me N30k as a fresher while the latter offered N55k. In my small and naive sense then I took up the N30k offer because I needed to gain experience on core engineering which they offered as against travelling to the high sea to drill or prospect for oil Well my experience with the company was very rewarding in terms of technical capacity building and know how but the salary was abysmal although they later increased it to N168k monthly after about 3 years but I still have my regrets. Now I have left the company and joined another where I do N400k but the job is anything but fulfilling because I detest lazing away without proper technical challenges In all I'm grateful for my life..I'm comfortable financially but I should be in a better place by now. Ok bye that's my story. 42 Likes 1 Share |
