I’ve had my fair share of ups and downs when it comes to pursuing my tech dreams.
It’s been quite a journey, filled with moments of frustration, but each stumble has taught me valuable lessons.
I’m excited to keep pushing forward and see where this path takes me!
I have so much interest in tech, even though I have not been able to fully grasp one skill to the level of mastery due to so many situations that I have not been able to control myself.
The major problem has always been how difficult it has been for me to get hold of a laptop that will ease my journey.
While I have watched friends whom I have shared this dream with grow so well in the industry my frustrations have only grown without any results.
I have made plans to utilize my service term and save as much as I can for this, and now, while I am getting closer to the end of my service year, my doubts have started growing again.
From the monthly allowances of #77,000 approximately $50 that we are paid monthly I was saving #30,000 approximately $20 for this but then my phone got spoiled and I had to prioritize one over the other with five months left I have to come up with a way to meet up before I complete my service year.
Even at that I have continued to search around for laptops so I can have an idea of what I am getting before the money comes.
I can't afford getting one that is not good enough, considering how much effort I am putting in to get this money together.
I don't want to feel any form of negative energy right now that's why I keep searching when the money is not yet available.
If you're a developer and you have certain specifications for me that will help, that are budget-friendly, and also good places that I can learn from online, pls 🙏🙏 kindly share in the comment section.

I'm studying computer science in the university and I also struggled to get a laptop even though I needed it so much, to help with coding and the rest. Recently I got a uk used hp stream product for 230k. I think that's budget friendly for how expensive laptop really is now
I'm leaning towards getting a UK used laptop too that's the most viable option for me right now
