Sell these solutions (100k-200k) to small vendors looking for go digital .
You’d be surprised how much you’d make from this.
As a Techie ,
One of you silent priority should be to japa .
Half the time it’s not you who isn’t good enough ,
you just need an enabling environment .
At least a country with stable light 💡

My first job as a software developer I earned more than that .. I just moved from squatting with a friend to a room and parlor in a decent estate less than 500k per annum , got a new Mac book . Put the rest for back pocket.. one year later , I’m married 😊 with 2 cars n a house
In my early days of software development.
When ever I get frustrated and feel like giving up, I simply go to the pages of
@Midecoder

@iamAbiodunAA
@abazudosen

@hackSultan
scrolling through one image at a time.
And I’d say to myself
“If he can, I can”
“If I can conceive
A mentor told me in 2016
“Build with me , Nor worry if everywhere gel we both go dey alright, I promise”
(My days in Eket)
That’s how I got this far.
I identify people of vision and volunteer to serve them in a bid to learn and grow.
I didn’t take a penny , ever .
Hello guys I’m Justice,

20 hrs every day you spend scrolling your phone watching reels.
I consider this a waste of life .
To me ,Age 20 - 35 is not time to rest and flex and waste away.
It’s time Meet people , Network, learn a trade , Go to school , start something, form meaningful relationships.
Building

Hey , Let me be your motivation this month.

If I can do it , you too can .
Make tough decisions early in live

Designers ehn !!
The community is strong ,
They carry themselves self along from newbie to pro .
No segregation, No big grammars , No intimidation on anyone. Just designer gently helping designer.
I’m massively impressed
@uikingdenis
.
This is commendable .
P.S
Prolly also
If u admire how far I’ve come in tech in very short time,I’ll like u to know this.
I had over 90+ projects on my GitHub, 20+ were live,
Applied to over 1000 + jobs (10+ per day)
50+ interviews,
900+ rejections,
Got 2 offers , took both.
That’s the pain behind my Champaign 🥂
Being a software developer isn’t as glamorous as we make it look .
This sh
#t
is hard asf.
Nobody shows that part online .
The mental exhaustion and series of breakdowns is done is silent.
There are multiple ways to still make is paper 💰 without haven to write code 👨🏽💻 .
On this day 2 years ago I officially quit my career as a sailor (marine engineer) & went full into Tech (software dev) with doubts in my heart yet with the vision of an eagle and doggedness of a pit pull it paid.
That has been the best career decision I ever made.
No regrets .
I had a 2 hours meeting with
@timxdesign
yesterday.
All I have to say is .
I highly recommend
@timxdesign
for any kind of product design role.
Such great sense of humor with an attitude of excellence in delivery.
P.S:
Just that he says too much “okay” and laughs a lot 😂
You see the way
@ice_onyx
@kemsdesigns
and
@UIbyBiba
collaborate to build amazing projects almost every other week ?
Every Techie should emulate this.
You’d be amazed how much you’ll grow and learn using the idea behind this collaborative process.

Please do.
At the end it wouldn’t matter , all that would matter is
“You at the top”

BTW ,
I bought my first MacBook, first IPhone 11pro max and my first Car from this model of business model back then in Nigeria .
It worked then for me , I’m sure it would work for anyone else .

I'M POSITIVE 💯
The assumption that if you suffering now , you’d enjoy later in life.
That’s a lie you’ve been told to keep you satisfied in less while being optimistic for the best,

I started this project sometime last year in Edo state (2 bedrm flat x4)
In Jan, my agent told me I cud rent each flat out for 200 -300k naira yearly.
So I will wait 12 months to get 200$ from each tenant?
God forbide !
I’ve decided to convert it to a 5 bedrm personal residence
I hate the narrative of Techies always saying ,
“Don’t work for Nigerian clients “
Have you ever been an employer of labour .
You’re expecting a clients based in Nigeria , whose revenue is in NAIRA to pay you America based rate ?
Clients in Nigeria can’t pay you more than the

Why do y’all hide project you’re working on?
So that someone won’t steal it ? 😂😂

Hey Techies listen up.
If Tech doesn’t pay you then go into something else .
I have friends who are car mechanics, technicians, electricians etc. who make more money than I do.
We all mustn’t do Tech.
If tech doesn’t pay you don’t waste your time ,
FIND SOMETHING ELSE!!!
See what I found in my archive today 😆
In my days of freelancing and building e-commerce websites for businesses.
My girlfriend (currently my wife) , decided to do an ad to promote my website building business .
At this moment I knew I was “blessed a thou amongst men”

P.S
If I see more than 2 langs on ur resume, I’m not even interviewing you.
Some time ago My designer friend designed a simple e-commerce store.
I developed it using
Frontend : Next js PWA, saas ,vercel host (free)
Database : Firebase , MongoDB, (free)
Storage: cloudinary (free)
Backend: node js and express js hosted on render (free)
I spent 0$
Some of y’all think
if you ask someone for help and the person refuses.
In future the person will be poor and you will be rich and the person will now be the one to come ask you for help and you’d refuse as a pay back

You think life is Nollywood?
I take God beg you.
If you nor get money nor born plenty children.
Too many children don’t deserve the kind of suffering their parents make them go through.
It’s better to have 1 child well trained than 5 children roaming the streets begging for food .
Instead of you to look for jobs and gigs you’re posting workspace photos,
Who told you clients know what “work space” photo is ?
You better post your work and put a caption client would understand..
You shouldn’t be trying to impress other techies , impress clients.
The fastest way to achieve your dreams.
Everybody is not equal,
Some persons have risen higher than others.
Look for that one person that has reached the height you aspire for, create a relationship with that person and show him/her how much loyalty, Respect and service you’re

Sold for 100,000 to 200,000k each.
I do “git clone” to clone the codebase, change respective data like name , logo, images etc
It’s cheap and affordable and small vendors gladly embraced it.
Was making 100 -200k every 2-3 days while still applying for jobs.
It worked for me

made very clear and vivid point, accurate facts and figures, proves and transparency.
Oyalowo made is point,
But I'm a Nigerian, 80% of what he mentioned is very much audio procrastination, no reality, no transparency, lil fact.
This is my opinion
@TechDynamite235
I always ask for 70% upfront. And every code base I push has a switch,
If I don’t get paid then be sure that code won’t run pass 24 hours .
My code my rules, you’d need a senior dev to find my hidden switch.
So I stood outside today appreciating the extent of my growth and current position and then a thought flashed my mind .
“What if you didn’t go into Tech”
I immediately said out loud
“God forbid !!!”

I always laugh when I hear someone saying they won’t tell their ideas to anyone because they might get their idea stolen from them.
Your ideas are worth nothing until they are implemented.
Everyone has an idea but the crown goes only to that person who
