From my perspective, newer immigrants have unrealistic expectations. Thanks to social media. In the real estate space for example, I see a lot of 😢unhealthy competition. Ha , my friend just bought ..we want to buy too..even when it's clear that you really cannot afford it. If over 45% of your monthly salary is going towards paying mortgage... you really can not afford that property. People must realize and acknowledge the season of life they are in.. . If you're in the season of planting , stop comparing yourself with someone in their harvesting season. Be content, work hard, pray hard, move with the ✅️ tribe ( but avoid unhealthy competition) and all will be well. CANADA 🇨🇦 is a great country, but things aren't handed to you on a plater of gold. Can I hear an AMEN?! 😅

Absolutely!! I arrived in the US 24 years ago, and I went through everything she said.
It’s not about jumping from one country to another. You can make it anywhere. Just work towards your vision and make the best of what you have. Trust God in your timing as well. Even in Nigeria, people are achieving groundbreaking feats!! If you like go the country tagged as “the best” (with many opportunities as well), but without having a renewed mindset and clear cut vision, you’ll still struggle.

As a person born and raised in Canada, I would NEVER tell anyone to move here. The country is in clear decline. Opportunities are getting harder to come by, and the cost of living, especially after taxes, is insane. A person making $50,000 per year has to choose between having a car or renting a "cheap" place to live. Places like Saskatoon are more affordable, but there are even fewer opportunities there. For the record, I am looking for a new country to call home. I'll make sure to listen to the advice on this channel when I level Canada, the only home I have ever known.

You are so right. These are some of the reasons I have left Canada. It is so sad because it has such potential but the governments tax everyone so high and send the money overseas to countries like Ukraine to help finance a war but that is just one of the ways the government (liberal) wastes tax payer money.

I have always said it that the people you mingle with when you land in a new country greatly determines the path you take.
I earn 6 figures now. Let me take you all through memory lane.. I got to US in 2016. Slept on the rug for I year, started my first job at a warehouse, 12 hours standing all night, moved to delivery jobs, moved to moving jobs, switched back to delivery job, switched to house cleaning job, switched to warehouse jobs, switched to uber job before finally landing a 6 figure jobs with two major financial institutions remotely. People simply don't want to go through any transformation. Very very unhealthy competition. Even with my 6 figures now, I still don't see buying a house as a priority. I NEVER TOOK MY CAR ON LOAN.

Hi Marina, i admired your humility and forthrightness. It is always very IMPORTANT to ask yourself the WHY questions in any major decision you undertake. Why do i want to do it? Is there another option? what are the risks associated with my decision? How do i measure progress? When should i press the PAUSE or STOP botton? This gives you assurance to deal with any challenges that would arise. It is expected that no decision is 100 percent perfect, however you better position yourself to weather any storm if you have answered the key questions sincerely
The few tips I got from this video: -Don't keep up with the Jones. -Be true to yourself and what you want. -Stay in your lane. -Upscale yourself -No where is perfect- adjust.

Loved the video! Too many people are living above their means and that’s the biggest problem. But that’s how the system is designed here. Most people are worried about social status. Riding $70,000 vehicles when you make less than 50,000 before taxes. It’s ridiculous 😂

I think that’s part of the problem, but the other huge crisis here is that housing is extremely unaffordable even if you are trying to live under your means. A regular family house (2 bedrooms) can go over 1 million dollars. Yes families can live in apartment, but if you have lots of kids it doesn’t provide much space

@@abic67 Moving province or at least out of the expensive area (I'm in Ontario so moving out of Toronto to a smaller city will significantly reduce costs) is the easiest solution here. Not sure where you guys live - I'm in Kitchener and 2/3 bedroom home will be about 600-650k+. Which is admittedly significantly higher than before, but I can find something cheaper by moving out to a smaller city. I understand your job or business may keep you stuck there but it's worth a try to explore options and not feel that you're necessarily stuck in one particular place. I don't think moving countries is a realistic move unless you're single and in an in demand field or can work from anywhere.

You should learn about tent city in vancouver. It is difficult and challenging for the average canadian born in the 1990s. I guarantee that there are people born here who have it worse than you do. Canada likes to hide it’s problems, but there are starving people and children in this country, it is just silenced. My parents are immigrants, and I see the same problems for others born in this country, the opportunities are just not here anymore.

@nomdeguerre2030 I haven't seen or heard of tent city in Vancouver. However, I do note with great dismay that there are many Canadians who are homeless and cannot afford to purchase food or basic needs. I work with people who cannot afford to stay home whenever they're sick. So they show up for work instead, and then everyone else contracts whatever their illness is. All in all, it's not an easy road, and while most people are having a difficult time in Canada, I know for sure that most immigrants persevere.
