I urge you to find a gold exchange where @asemota talked about making 50M in Nigeria & @saratu asked @afalli for his thoughts wherein he broke it down succinctly by pointing out the bleak %tage of those who hit it compared to other climes & the odds stacked against you with it.
Summary of the exchange was that while with the way the system is set up, you can make it but you'll be a part of a small %tage who make that figure compared to a large %tage in other climes & even with that balance, you still face a systemic malfunction reducing quality of life.
So a major consideration for those who are comfortable with their earnings in Nigeria is how many are you & what are your chances? Abroad, the odds are easier with certain paths & at the end of the day, the real consideration is quality of life no matter how much you earn.

I have a theory which I need the proper catch-phrase to summarise it. It's closely related to Prof. Pius Adesanmi's shower 🚿 head theory. I call mine for now, the clock ⏰ theory: A person's/people's attention to excellence can be determined by the clock in their space.
If you walk into an office and the clock ⏰ on the wall is not working, they do not pay attention to detail. They are comfortable around things that do not work & they are okay with 'managing it like that'. It's really that simple.
The clock here is of course a metaphor. Same can be deduced from light bulbs 💡 in the office. 3 bulbs but only one is working. 3 bulbs but they have different colours & shapes. They are not serious people. They do things anyhow. Proceed with caution ⚠️.

With a boss like mine, no chance you'll get carried away. Reality check always embedded in a quasi commendation.

"You're doing great but you should be worried that you've not groomed others who share your work ethics. Your success lies in replicating yourself".

I hear sir.
I could make excuses. Words like you can only drag a horse to the river & such but he's actually right. I cannot be the go-to person all the time. I have to consciously ensure available of a ready pool of talents who can competently deputise or handle tasks on their own.
It sounds clichéd but it's true that success without a successor is faulty. You may just be feeding your own ego by being the only one who knows how to effectively get things done. There's also the element of wear-out & fatigue. Do it for yourself at the very least.

Marry who gets you o. I'm extroverted for Africa. I attend every function I'm invited to. My wife on the other hand is in love with her indoors & can't be bothered. She cheerily waves me off when I set out from my numerous waka. Not someone that will tight face for you.
These things are usually obvious at courtship stage. While courting my wife, when she comes over, I'd wake up Friday night to go clubbing. Let's go. She'd say she's not up for it. Just come back early. & I will to warm embrace. No issues. Still the norm 14 years post marriage.
Wahala usually arises when you condone things before marriage & seek to alter them post-marriage. Your marriage is usually shaped during courtship stage. Whatever you're not cool with, voice out & watch your partner's reaction & decide if you can deal. Very critical.

A few pointers to what Olumide Akpata did that all but ensured he won the election as President of the Nigerian Bar Association 2020.

1. He had track record. Olu has been actively engaged in Bar activities. He was Chairman of the influential Section on Business Law & excelled.
SBL events during his Chairmanship were lit. He invited international figures & attracted large followership to the section. His capacity was on full display. He also chaired the organising committee of the NBA National Conference & did a visibly great job.
2. He was known. Olu was not a dark horse who suddenly emerged on the scene. Lawyers already knew him. He was involved in a lot of NBA & ancillary activities. He had friends accros strata and demographics. It was easy to count on those friendships.

There is your salary. Then there are opportunities for ancillary earnings on the job.

With the right job, your salary won't matter.

Don't pay too much attention to the salary. Find out what the perqs are.

Get a job where the extras make the salary redundant.
Someone's salary is N200,000/month. Outstation allowance is N30k/day all other expenses paid. The job requires about 20 days a month in the field.

What is a static N500k salary a month compared to this package?

Get the full picture before you decide.
The best jobs are usually the ones that come with extra earning opportunities. Preferably on the regular. That way, you can take care of daily recurrent expenses with the extras & save up your salary into a tidy lump sum to use for capital projects over time.
