jkbimmy: When I combine jobs proper hustling the other pay equivalent of 3 mills....

Therefore, you are not in Nigeria. You can only combine jobs in developed countries due to their efficient transportation system and secured environment.

@OP, If It's a marketing/sales/business development e.t.c, if they don't supply a car for you to visit clients/potential customers e.t.c, then anything less than 150k is not worth it. It's just unfortunate that most jobs in Nigeria are field sales, even the big engineering firms would site their manufacturing plants in US Mexico Germany or Brazil and would only open sales outlets in Nigeria.

double post.

jkbimmy: @billionaire, we all start from somewhere, and ur profession matters too. Earning peanuts from the start should not be a problem if u really need the cash...but as time flies by...u get to the next level provided u develop ur self. Basic earning, 980,000 from 150k start. When I combine jobs proper hustling the other pay equivalent of 3 mills.... In summary its not bad starting with peanuts, as u develop ur self, sky is the limit..

Yea, I understand you. Just as I stated. I started with N12,000 a month salary and never rejected a job cos of low pay, because I already graduated with a mindset that am not gonna be a paid employee for long. Every graduate out there should reject no job except you have better choices. And make sure you work in a sector you can actually learn the tricks of running such companies. Grab the industrial secrets and move on.

I started with 12k/month in 2002 working 16hours per day (5am to 9pm) 6days a week, no weekends, no public holidays being observed in the establishment. I served my master diligently and learnt fast on the job.I built a strong network and good relationship with our major customers and fetched myself a good job within 2 years. It was not easy but i have no regret because i have achieved alot in my carreer because of the technical skills i developped in my starting point.
Be serious and patient in whatever you are doing.

just started a 40k/month job today(a chemical engr graduate)
i believe i'm surely going higher

Una neva jam. U beta start little and pray for God to bless u more

ebi like say 70k go do for that start oh....u self think am again?[color=#770077][/color]

If u are looking for work u snatch at any job that comes ur way regardless of pay. Yes, dont mind d salary, just take the job. Acquire as much experience as u can and continue looking for a better-paid job.if u ar jobless d biggest mistake u will make is to reject a job because of the pay when u dont hav an alternative but to remain jobless.

trix!:


500 buks a day for food? breakfast/lunch/dinner?

yes nah, 150 for rice and beans in the morning. 150 for yam with egg in d afternoon at Mama nkwa shop. 150 for Eba, dinner at Iya Bose shop. 50 naira for half bag of pure water. He will either go take the pure water at home or have them with him anytime. So, 500 naira is ok. Hahahahaha

Okija_juju:

[b]Yes o!!

Breakfast - Lipton (10 naira) or sachet coffee (20 naira), Sugar (20 Naira will last you for 2 days). milk (30 - 50 naira for Cowbell).. No bread.

Lunch - Mama Put of 200 naira - 300 naira can work miracles!!

[img]http://1.bp..com/-vqU4JzFqnUU/TWURhUQc57I/AAAAAAAAACQ/Bhgc40exHPI/s1600/eating1.JPG[/img]

Dinner - Buy fried Yam (10 naira a piece) comes with sauce. Fried fish costs 50 naira. Sometimes you substitute the fish for more yams. You can tweak this dinner to include Potatoes and plantain as well..
Also, Indomie is also an option (35 Naira per sachet of the standard size and 3 sold for 100 naira).. A very filling dinner in served!!


_{All dishes are served with a *10 Naira sachet of 'pure' water.}


This estimate was done based on my NYSC experience in Calabar where my House rent (1 bedroom self contained) was 150,000 naira per year.. I had to pay for communal generator at 5 thousand Naira per month. No water or Light bills.

NYSC Allowee = 9500 Naira.
Place of Primary Assignment Salary = 15,000 Naira.

[/b]

You are so right! This is so close to my experience years ago. The only difference was that it was not during NYSC. I just started working then in Lag. and was even squatting then.

prince FAD: i get 728k monthly after tax and i am still demanding for more

haba and you are still complaining? no allow 'big boys' attack you for NL ooh *just saying*

ujchief:
u got a 16 month contract job at N110k per month and all u thought of was buying a Camry? 16 months and all u could boast of was a Camry? U couldnt use the money to start up something of ur own when ur contract runs out?? U bought a camry? U were a teacher, earning 15k, then had a litle oppurtunity to help urself and u bought a camry? Did u say u're looking for a new job? What for? Why not drive around town wit ur 'camry' everymorning and retire to ur house? If u were my younger brother, i would have electrocuted u, no jokes! When others wash their camry to take it to work in the morning, u stil wash urs to drive it to where? Someone else's office to submit an application for work? I HATE YOU!

ROTFL
Lol.

by my estimate, you would probably have spent close to 350gees for the 11 months and your total allowee for that 11 months should have been 264gees. so my question is: how did u balance up?

Na wa o see hw ppl dey mention 50k,60k,70k,120k,150k...after searchn for a job for several months na so i see a teachn job 4just 18k dis wk o, see hw i grab am..yes am a graduate but the unemployment situation of this our beloved country is bad and getting worse by the minute..however i dnt mind if any of the big boys or big men in the house can hep me out. My contact email is paul_fred2003@yahoo.com. God bless

Please all ya'll gettin fat pays from above 200,000..can we know what you do,I mean your business cos I don't wanna leave school and start workin without seein any change in my life and the way people address me. I refuse to be poor

Aijalon: u foolish 4 dat,una dey do ritual??

He's not foolish at all except if he's deceiving himself. If u are in a place where somebody earns in the range of 3million monthly and u earn 728k, wouldn't u aspire to earn more?

prince FAD: i get 728k monthly after tax and i am still demanding for more

U must be an oil/gas worker,infact Total E&P pays graduates almost N1million naira monthly....u get mouth my guy.

I started a 60k/month job in july as a fresh graduate but am strugling 2 hav savings. My case has always being a salary getting exhausted before the next sal comes inspite of d fact dat I don't spend a dime on transport n I don't hav any dependants. D only compesation I hav on d job is the experience am gaining. @least, man has to start from somewhere... It can only get better!

Aijalon: u foolish 4 dat,una dey do ritual??

even na ritual, his answer is EVEN irrelevant to the question, OP didnt ask " how much is yr take home after tax?" he asked how much is ok for a fresh graduate at a start, now which work dey pay him 728k as a fresh graduate if he is into one?

mannet:

U must be an oil/gas worker,infact Total E&P pays graduates almost N1million naira monthly....u get mouth my guy.

Lair.. Which Total and E n P dey pay such?

It depends on where you are. 30k is a lot of money in gombe, but the same 30k is peanuts for someone who stays in ikeja and works in vi.[/color]

[color=#000099]And in places like Port Harcourt, it's a pocket change!!!

I make N750,000 a month.. However, im not really happy with it..

Im working with my father in a company that makes a profit of over N15,000,000 a month(which father keeps).. so 750k a month is peanuts considering im one of the directors.

However, all expenses are paid for me. I dont pay for food, cars, housing,phone,internet,travel,vacation abroad,etc.

so maybe i should be happy.. i dont know though..Ive just been saving like 500,000 every month so its not so bad. I spend the other 250k eating out/clubbing.
