Dollar at N1,600๐ฑ
I donโt need to explain the economic situation in the country right now, because we can all see the value of Naira falling and the cost of living going up every day.
But in all of this chaos, there are a lot of smart Nigerians like me who are not going down with the Naira.
And we are able to do that through a simple hack: โEarn in Dollars and Spend in Naira.โ
I learned this hack in 2020, and since then I have never looked back again.
If you also want to start making money in Dollars like other smart Nigerians, here is a simple plan you can follow:
Step 1: Learn a Globally Relevant Skill
By globally relevant skill, I mean a skill that is valuable to people anywhere in the world, not just to Nigerians.
Another key factor is to make sure that the skill does not require your physical presence in a location to be useful. I am in Nigeria, but earning in Dollars because all I need is a computer, internet connection and I can work from anywhere.
Step 2: Get a Dollar Account
To earn in Dollars, you need a legit and easy way to collect your Dollar earnings without issues.
The most popular option for getting a Dollar account is Payoneer, you can set up a Payoneer account and get accounts in multiple currencies including USD, GBP, EUR and others. Once you receive USD into your Payoneer account you can withdraw to your Nigerian bank account anytime you want.
If Payoneer does not work for you, a better alternative is Cleva Banking. With Cleva you can get your Dollar account in less than 1 hour for free without any long process.
I have made videos about both platforms, you can check them out on my YouTube channel.
Step 3: Sell your Skill in a Global Market
Now that you have the skill, and you have a way of receiving Dollar payments, you need to step out and find clients who will pay you in Dollars.
Upwork and Fiverr makes it very easy for anyone from anywhere in the world to show their talent to a global market of employers and get paid in Dollars.
As you would expect, these platforms are very competitive but if you learn the ropes right, clients will definitely find you.
