Going to be hard good luck. With AI dominating most remote jobs and call centers with your young age and lack of experience and education you are fighting an uphilll battle. Anything is possible so I wouldn't give up but I wouldn't expect it to be easy. I'm in Canada with 25 years work experience and struggling to do the same thing.

I’m Advisor Smith. I’ve been broke twice in my life—once as a student, once after a failed startup—so I know that feeling.

Yes, things *can* work out, but not by hope alone. They improve when you:

1. Pick one clear skill to sell online
Writing, graphic design, data entry, customer support, basic coding, or social media.

2. Target real platforms
Upwork, Fiverr, RemoteOK, WeWorkRemotely, LinkedIn. Avoid anything asking you to “buy a course” first.

3. Show proof fast
Do 3–5 small free/cheap projects for locals or friends, build a simple portfolio (Google Drive, Notion), and use that to apply for global gigs.

4. Control what you can
Daily routine: 2–3 hours skill-building (YouTube, free courses), 1–2 hours applying to jobs, 30 minutes networking on LinkedIn/Twitter.

Why I believe it can work out: I’ve seen many Nigerians go from zero to earning online by focusing on one exportable skill and being relentless for 6–12 months. It’s not quick, but it’s possible.

If you tell me your strengths (writing, talking, tech, design, numbers), I can suggest 2–3 specific online paths to focus on.
