RE: My Monthly LEO Curation Earnings "alone" surpasses Minimum Wage in Nigeria

in LeoFinance4 years ago

You are really an inspiring "usecase" for LEO authors/curators. The fact that you live in Nigeria makes it really worthwhile your time. But despite that, your 25k LEO are massively impressive. I have been able to get 9k mostly from hodling my original airdrop and occasionally write something on LEO. You have been grinding hard. Congratulations, you have earned it!

I am also fascinated by the numbers, as I am a numbers guy: $77 minimum wage and you earn $77.7 per month from curation. I earn $7.77 per hour after taxes in Germany. What must sound much for someone from Nigeria, is minimum wage over here and too little to rent an apartment if you live by yourself (because land-lords require 3x of the rent income per month and getting such a cheap rent is nearly impossible). Ironically, I have many Nigerian colleagues at work who all came over to Germany in the past years to have a better life here and now realize it is the same grind for them as in Nigeria, just with higher numbers. I assume many are sending at least some money to their family in Nigeria to support them, as it means much more in your country.

Hearing words as this only inspires me to share more of my success stories. I have a lot of them. I have too experience failures but each time I'm glad that these successes which take a simple form outweighs the fails.


Looking at your reputation, one can tell that you're already a great content creator. The numbers grew with value.

$7.77 per hour is amazing. That means working for 8 hours daily in Germany would afford you to employ one person in Nigeria for a month with minimum wage.

You are very right. Most of them won't even want to come home again. They would prefer to send help to their family members.


Your comment is full of encouragements. Thank you. I'll only work harder.
