Pray that you or any of your family members do not have a health crisis in the middle of the night, or a fire incident. Then you will realise that your large money will not guarantee prompt arrival of an ambulance or fire service. This country is a joke. Presently in Germany and sometimes I weep when I realise that the things considered as basic human rights here are privileges in Nigeria. If you can, get out fast for the sake of your unborn kids.

Bloody liar keep consoling yourself, either he doesn't really have a well paying job in Nigeria or he is seriously regretting resigning to relocate to that ice box. Either way you have to be a big fool to resign a very well paying job with serious advancement prospects to relocate to some oyinbo country.

Hedonini:

When some of us screamed from the rooftops about the looming danger of allowing Buhari and his evil cohort anywhere near the presidency, some misguided elements drowned our voices.

The future looks very bleak if Buhari is allowed a second term. Now we can only hope against hope that the Supreme Court would salvage the situation and rescue Nigeria. You have no idea how much gloom and doom lies ahead - if God doesn't intervene in this matter. With Buhari in the saddle Nigeria would be the most miserable place on earth by the next few years.
Another pained PDP sycophant! grin
You know Nigerians just started emigrating under Buhari!

If only you made use of your brain at all, you'd have comprehend well like a sensible fellow. <strong>
Let me come down to your level</strong>. What the guy is just trying to say is that, Nigeria is a frustrating place and no matter how much you have or make, you don't have rest of mind.
E.g
You can have 15 million naira in your account and kidnappers may kidnap you and start requesting for 20 million naira which may cost you your life or change of life from grace to grass within 3 days...
you want to come down to his level in hmmmm he will use is skills in stupid to finish you up

All he needs to do is to invest well or start up his own company.
I beg to disagree with you on the bolded. Abi na another Nigeria wey I nor know? Which healthcare, name the hospital? All this plea for donation to take treatment abroad you think is a drama.
People were initially fleeing Nigeria for economical reaaon, that isn't the case anymore. People are now feeing due to insecurity in every aspects. I.e. security, etc.

Yeah money is a big factor. The good life is secondary, i can change my mind though. But you know Canadian dollar isn't Strong until you convert it to Naira.
Re: Nigerian Man Reveals Why He Dumped His High Paying Job To Relocate To Canada by Sterope(f): 10:33pm On May 11, 2019
Are you telling us that people do not live from paycheck to paycheck in Nigeria? Also, not everyone lives from paycheck to paycheck. Those that do also happen to have a better quality of life and their lives are considerably more valuable than it would be if they were in Nigeria.

Why do you people make it seem like paying bills is a bad thing? Don't you pay bills in Nigeria? IS it because you are part of those people who are fond of converting their salaries into naira and worry about how much they are paying for rent whilst forgetting that it is relative?

He just got to Canada and is still carried away by the beautiful environment. In about 2 to 3 years, the reality of what he has done will hit him straight on. At the end of the day, it's not about the amount of income you're making (in Dollars or Naira) or the beauty of the environment you find yourself in but instead the amount of your income you're able to keep after all expenses are taken care of. Just like other Canadians, he might end up living from paycheck to paycheck and paying the unending cycle of enormous bills. Welcome to Obodo Oyibo.

Thanks Ma'am, i love Canada too & no doubt, i think we all love it but one thing that bothers me is what you just mentioned.

How much people save at the end of the month, Now imagine living a nice cozy life in Canada and not be able to save some good money. At the end, i think such person is still Poor.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Even if you earn 1million naira monthly in this shitHole where kidnappers, Bad roads, dirty Air, insecurity of all soughts,bad health care is a normal thing to the people, You are not better off those earning 60k monthly because one of those things will kill you one day
Tueh Nigeria is Hell 2.0
Seconded
In addition, stray bullet, even policemen themselves are insecure, etc. I wept for Nigeria when a federal teaching hospital "very senior doctor" gave mumsy wrong diagnosis & treatment. I was sure Nigeria is done when I held my money. Yet couldn't get a facility for her treatment. Even politicians that steals still go out to relax & enjoy a better & safer life. Those born & grew in Nigeria shouldn't be scared of hell fire. It is here already.

Talking of health issues in Nigeria, you people are talking out of ignorance and lack of knowledge. I personally know three people who relocated to the US but are now dead from heart failure, stroke due to the diet and stress of living in Western country. Keep thinking people live forever in oyinbo countries.

Your own level of ignorance is stark. Did you read the part of his writeup about insecurity? No matter how much money you have, you will still be exposed to the gross insecurity inherent in our society and be plagued by anxiety over the gross inexperience of our security agencies.
What about our deplorable healthcare. Do you know the number of people who have died because the best medical facilities in Nigeria could not handle their case but rather referred them abroad?
In Nigeria, if you're not rich enough to have special security details like politicians but you're rich, then you only became a sitting duck for kidnappers.

I live abroad and if i had to choose again i will still relocate.

i wrote Jamb twice and got 255 and 267 respectively but still was not admitted, and one guy will get 120 and enter because of connection.

Schools are begging for you to come over here.

And If it was that easy to start a successful company , everyone will be able to get jobs, no one will spend a huge chunk of their life to get a degree just to start hawking it around looking for jobs.

the only Good thing about Living in Nigeria is that it is hard to forget the love you have for Nigerians , that is why most of us still come back to Nairaland to read the latest new, thats why we wept when Buhari won the election.

Nigerians are the best but Electricity, Health Care, Education, Security e.t.c cant be compared to the one abroad

Nobody can say or imply that people live forever in the US, because man must die eventually.
But the question is about how and when you die. In Nigeria, things that wouldn't kill people in the US with their advance in healthcare delivery kill thousands on regular basis. There is no wonder, our life expectancy is very much more lower than theirs.

What is the frequency of the "gun violence" and what's the casualty count. You can't just hear, "there is gun violence in the US" and without knowing the statistics, you jump off, comparing it to Nigeria's insecurity issues.
Everyday in Nigeria, countless number of people are killed by armed robbers, kidnappers, security agencies.
Yesterday my brother told me about a secondary school mate of his, while returning in the evening, he was waylaid by armed robbers and for resisting they shot him in the abdomen, he was rushed to a hospital but they couldn't find a matching blood for him, and he bled to death (what a painful way to die). The same yesterday a colleague going to Portharcourt and he was blocked by armed robbers/kidnappers he tried reversing the vehicle but he couldn't escape and these sons of Belial riddled his body with bullets and hacked him with axe, the only surviving son of his mother who it was said suffered stroke a while back. The rest of the passengers they kidnapped for ransom.
The story of Nigerian's insecurity is a sad tale, and nothing short of horror movie. What about the insecurity in the North, that is another epistle.

there some things that a basic but out of reach for many. You just have to be super rich or a political appointee before you can provide them for yourself, example security, good road, good air that we breath, etc. What you earn here and call it a good paying job could just be for an average worker over there.
