Most times I wonder just where the balance can be when you make only a few thousand naira a month equivalent to a few dollars and life's expecting you to cover a lot within a month with the income that you are making
It makes me wonder if I am the one not working hard enough or spending wisely to meet all the essential needs that are knocking on my door.

I know it might look like I'm making excuses, but sometimes things actually feel so hard that you have to just let it out.
I haven't worked under any company or organization yet but I did a year working under the government as a youth copper and as much as it feels like the government was helping us for a whole year which i have to say definitely they did cause I was paid way more than any job I have done before will I still feel short of my bills sometimes.
Now that one year is over, I'm back struggling to get a job that will pay something close to what the governmentwas paying for that one year, even when that was far from enough.
Right now am still a young man and with only my cost of living to bear and my siblings don't really ask for much but come to think a time when responsibility comes and I have others to take care of will this monthly payment be enough the answers is a no.
To prevent myself from falling into a situation deeper than that, I have decided to seek other ways to get income rather than just the monthly paycheck.
I am still scanning around for a suitable yet flexible option. I have tried trading forex, but it looks like there is a lot to learn before you enter into that world at all.
Farming is another thing I'm planning for,, but the capital needed to start has to come from somewher,e, and it needs to be legit for the sake of my future and the business.
I'm not giving up on forex just yet, but what I need right now is to put my head in the right place, get a consistent source of income, no matter how small, that is flexible, so that I can still pursue my ideas without hurting my head thinking about a lot of things.
