1 / 4

A 31-year-old corporate lawyer shares his journey from a ₦35,000 bank internship to earning ₦750,000 monthly in Nigeria’s energy sector. He recalls selling snacks in boarding school, struggling with a ₦5,000 weekly allowance at university, losing ₦48,000 to a scam during NYSC and enduring toxic workplaces before finding a better-paying role. He now rents his own apartment, saves ₦100,000 monthly and hopes to build investments that can eventually fund his lifestyle. His next goals are earning at least ₦1.2 million monthly and buying a car before he turns 35.
