A lot of young Nigerians seem to be leaving the country in droves. They say Nigeria has nothing to offer them or that it's only going to get worse Before you join the band wagon, do your homework. I'm certainly not against it when people are struggling to make ends meet etc... But my observation is that a lot of Nigerians tend to base their decisions on hearsay.... and sadly, most aren't sold the full picture. It isn't enough to be carried away by the thought of earning "thousands" of $$ a month. To a Nigerian based in Nigeria, it usually sounds like a lot of money but in actual sense, it isn't when you look at it in terms of levels of comfort and purchasing power it affords. The economies are completely different. E.g, if you enjoy the "luxury" of a maid, a driver, a cook etc... in Nigeria (which isn't luxury at all). and you have a steady source of income that allows you a comfortable lifestyle, how long would you need to work "there" to enjoy that same level of comfort (credit cards aside)? Most never achieve this. I often ponder this with friends. It would be interesting to read your thoughts.
