Okay, for me 100k monthly I think you should start with low risk investments like Treasury bills and after some times like 2-4 months step it up with stocks and do it for long term 1-2 years to get higher percentage returns.

If you earn ₦100,000/month, the goal is not to “invest big” — it’s to build discipline, consistency, and growth over time.
start with ₦15k - #20k Monthly
Investment with Money Market Funds.
Platforms like:
Cowrywise
PiggyVest
👉 Returns: ~10%–17% yearly
👉 Very safe, good for beginners

With a monthly income of ₦100,000, commit to setting aside ₦20,000 into a mutual fund. Maintain this consistently—ideally for at least one year—to benefit from compounding returns in the range of 15–17%.
This disciplined approach to investing not only grows your wealth over time but also instills financial focus and long-term stability.
While on this, start to learn other types investments like equities- stocks and shares, especially if have age on yourside for more financial consolidations. The returns in equities are high but also leads to higher returns.
Good luck in your wealth creation journey.

With #100,000 monthly income.
One can consistently invest #10,000( 10%)monthly on mutual funds or penny stocks.
I will go for mutual funds because that is more like done for you, no analysis from your side. Just pick a mutual and consistently drop your #10k monthly.

#100,000 monthly salary? You need to draw up an annual budget for yourself. If you have dependant, periodic bills, or otherwise. The budget helps you to see first hand your annual income from all sources, expected expenditures and what you have left for investment. If it is 10% or 20% you can spare monthly, go for a low risk investment like monthly investment on cowrywise, lockup funds in other platforms etc. You can then strategize to move the locked funds periodically to MMF say quaterly or as best suitable for you. This helps you build the fund while you are learning stock trading or other investment of interest. Please dont be too ambitious, only lock up funds you can spare, that way, you avoid mental stress.
