Hello @hive-naija, hello everyone reading this today, how are you doing, today is a great day, I hope all is well with you out there, we thank God for making us see the last Saturday in the month of may, many more and better Saturdays will we see in Jesus name amen!

To to the Hive-naija weekend engagement, there was (as normal) a given topic to write on which is stated below ⬇️

Choices As a Nigerian"

And there were different questions attached to them, (hot chocolate questions, this one no be beans)

So the first one I'll be talking about is

Living in Nigeria and working remotely or traveling to work abroad? (Earning the same thing o)

When I was very little, I had an an aunty, my mom immediate younger sister, er husband took her to the USA, ever since she left, she has been doing well, but there were some things that were expected of her to be done as someone that is outside the country, the USA to be precised, but she didn't do those things and that made me think that were really have been hyping the outside country...

What I mean is that, it is not about the country, the country is good enough to change your life but the person that does to the country is the problem, the aim and objectives of the person before traveling will definitely change by the time the person travels...

Can you imagine that someone from the UK said that a litre of of fuel is sold for about 2 HBD, pls how many litres of fuel are we Nigerians going to buy with 2 HBD? Do the math 😉

So if I'd be working here in Nigeria and be earning the same amount I'd be earning if I go abroad, it's better I stay in my country.

30 million naira cash OR Full scholarship to study in the US or UK Or your favourite country?

Well, this one is a bit though, I'll talk in two ways and conclude in one okay?
An illiterate will say 30 million naira cash in Nigeria now ehh is not too much oo, one you talk say you wan buy confirm food stuffs full your house, repair everything weh don spoil or buy new ones, buy new clothes for my self and my family, change the house I am living in to a better one, how much go remain, the remaining one I go use am full gas, buy fuel full tank, put AC for my house, the remaining change I go use am buy food stuffs when the one weh dey house finish, the remaining go reach pay all the dept weh I dey owe, the rest go enter my business with my wife own too, e go don finish be that...

A literate will say he wants to remove half of it, (that is 15M) build a good house of at least 10 to 12 million naira house, because in life, the three most major things needed are shelter, food and clothes, but before now, I had clothes, so I'd build the house first, the I will remove 5M from the remaining 15M *(remaining 10) get all needed things for living, use the money to finish my house even to the last spoon and lastly, I'll invest the remaining 10M on something I know will surely see gain, something that the profit is greater than the loss, I'm talking about real business, and I'll eradicate poverty from my generation...

What I a trying to say in all is that I'll prefer the #30M cash, to the scholarship stuffs, I'd rather do business and later do a per-time classes here in my country or as I please...

A 2M salary every month in Nigeria or 50% coin flip on getting a good paying job in the US (salary not specified)

I will definitely do for a 2M salary every month in Nigeria, I have always wanted to enjoy the good in this country before traveling abroad, that has been my plan for long and it still is, so 20M as a salary every month, I'd definitely go for it and enjoy myself as I have always wanted, who knows, I can work very hard and smart and then I can get an opportunity to travel and represent my company in an international conference in another country, (the kind of company that will pay such will be a big one oo)

Thank you very much for this topic, I really had fun...
