How will you become a doctor when the medical institutions in Somalia are severely weak ? In comparison to the west ?

There are so many others schools in the world besides western schools dear. There are schools in Malaysia, South Afrika, Cuba, China etc etc

I cannot afford Western institutions without taking massive student loan debt with riba anyway so I'm forced to look for outside options. But the end goal is to go back home and open up my own clinic\hospital inshallah

Looool it's ok you can ask, I didn't really plan to do it but more like stumbled on it :cosbyhmm:Basically painting/drawing is one of my hobbies. I used to work in a coffee shop in a quite posh area a couple of years back. One time I let one of my regular customers, this sweet old cadaan lady, flick thru my sketchbook and she loved it lol she asked me to draw her a portrait and in exchange she'd pay me :dwill:

Next thing I know she's showing it to all of her rich cadaan friends and I'm getting bare commissions! It's really time consuming tho since I'm doing it using oil paint but I love it lol, it's not a regular thing but every so often someone will hit me up



No way lmao If I had gone to university when I was 18 I would've gotten a useless degree that wouldn't be worth shit

I'm planning to study something that'll earn me lacaq straight away so it's cool

That's actually pretty sick. The fact that it's a hobby makes it that much better. You might wanna have a look at Etsy if you aren't already, you never know. I imagine you'd have to be pretty good to actually make money off of it. :obama:

I hate the responsibility of owning a business I'm surprised so many of you want to have businesses.
I want to open a training school for those who want to learn about nutritional and culinary gaps, while making good food produced by Somalis. Get away from the aid food akhaas! And more towards fish eating and sustainable food sources. I really like food :manny:

Isn't a training school a business? :ayaanswag:

I have a similar goal as you. When I'm in my 40s or 50s I want to open a trade school back home. Teach Somalis how to work with their hands and gain the skills to develop by themselves. :fittytousand:

I love etsy lol I've been trying to figure out a way to set up my page but I'm so busy rn

I was actually planning to do prints of my artwork to sell. It's less time consuming than doing commissions, I can sell more of them quicker and it's got more potential for growth since I can essentially outsource the printing and delivering part to a dropship company while focusing on smth else.

It's wild what rich ppl will spend their money on fam! This one old couple paid me 500 quids to paint a portrait of their dog! Their dog :damn:

Granted it was huge and took about a two weeks lmao but still

No it's not a business at all because I'm trying to help them become self sufficient and for the country to be self sufficient.

:deadosama: That is goals right there. Insha'Allah one day I'll be rich enough to pay for a portrait of my non-existent dog.:wow:

I have a friend that does something along the same lines. He designs little graphics and sells them on posters, mugs, t-shirts etc. It's a fairly simple business, but you'd be surprised how many sales he makes through Etsy specifically. He has a top-tier website, had some decent SEO work done, and has good local ranking. Despite all that, a disproportionate amount of sales still come through Etsy and Amazon. He would get the printing outsourced until he saved up enough money and spent 12k~ on equipment and now makes solid margins on every sale. With talent and a bit of luck it can be pretty lucrative. Might be obvious advice, but yeah you should try to be on as many third party platforms as possible.

I've never understood making custom art pieces though, it's seems like it could easily lead to some unnerving experiences. Imagine working weeks on an art piece and the client does not f*ck with it at all. That alone would leave me uneasy working on the project lol

Makes me want to move from Canada when I hear the house price in Usa
Ohio is a cheap ass state man. I couldn't believe it myself when I saw a two bedroom apartment renting for 600$.:mindblown:
I live in phoenix, and a single apartment here rents for around a 1000. Getting a good house will cost 300k above.
