DISCLAIMER; I am not an immigration advisor .
These videos are based on my personal experience, that of friends and research on the internet
Also, I am unable to offer you a job . If you’re in the process of applying for a visa or job in the uk, kindly do your own research and seek professional assistance as necessary
I live in omaha nebraska usa, for 20 years now , I have never felt unsafe, if I ever consider moving to a different country, it will not be because of money, or health care or safety. I love usa, because no matter where in the world you come from, you will feel you belong here in no time.
2 weeks is a VACATION-not LIVING somewhere. As someone who has been in the UK and US I would not consider myself qualified to say I “lived” somewhere if I was there for two weeks visiting family, not actually working, maintaining a home, and doing the everyday things in normal life.
Exactly. Lol I just spent the last 2 weeks in the UK as someone who lives and works in Nigeria and I feel like the UK has its perks and downsides, but definitely I can’t say I know what it’s like to live there.
I have opinions though. Calm and quite country, roads and houses too tiny. Rooms crazy small. Hotels insanely expensive and overrated. Love the peace and quiet though. That’s luxury since I live in Lagos. 😂
Spot-on! I am a US citizen with over 10yrs experience in corporate America. who just moved to the UK. I won’t give up the peace of mind I have now. Especially being a mom to a black son.
I live in the UK, I think the USA is better in terms of making money. If you are aged 22-40 and you are single without kids, The USA is better for the sole purpose of making money. This whole notion of free health care would become almost nonsensical with the overcrowding problem we have here. Every country has its issues yes. Her point is valid for those within the health industry. However as she said 40 times bigger equates to 40 times more opportunities.
In conclusion if you are young and without kids and want to make money fast, the USA is the better option as it has more opportunities! The UK pound may be strong, but aside London, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Southampton, Leeds and the big cities in Scotland, if you are not into health care or a trade like electrician, you are restricted! Even chartered accountants can’t find work here in UK.
However her videos are great!
As someone who lives in Germany, I always have the same opinion. The main reason I prefer to live in Germany, is that there are systems to support families and the working culture plus governance is built to support families, and to earn comfortably but not crazy high amounts like the USA.
I have a lot of European countries for my vacation with my family
If you are in any IT field you will make a lot of money in the uk and all
Over the world
UK better.
excellent view point
Well said Nanelle👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 everyone should go with where aligns with their goals
Thank you Nurse Nanelle for your informative videos. You are so gifted and inspiring. Please can you make a similar video between the UK and Canada.
Thank you in anticipation
Thank you for bringing this summary for us!!
Wellcome back our Queen
Thanks for this expository insight.
I just love you Nanelle, you are full of life. I've been on this channel silently since last year. A Nigerian nurse, but will be in UK soon.
Thank you so much!!
Thanks for always sharing helpful information and also welcome back to the UK. Hopefully will get to see you face to face someday, I also stay in Northern Ireland.
Thanks Nanelle for this information. Always on point
Another banger 🔥🔥🔥. It's always a delight to be here to get all the juicy info momma and I also want to share this good news with you that I passed my ielts exam 💃. Thank you for all the videos,motivations and encouragements ma🥰🥰.
Congratulations dear ❤❤❤
@@NanelleGriselda Thank you Momma 🙌🥰
Silent watcher and subcriber. Just want to say ❤❤❤ you are so intelligent and so good and very unselfish with sharing all these life changing informations with others.
Thumbs up girl, this video came in the right time. And welcome back.
Thanx Nanelle. Always making Ghanaians and Africans proud 👏 ❤
Thanks Nanelle I have learnt a lot from this video
Great job Nanelle, I wonder if some people watched your video till the end. You just earned a subscriber.
Thanks for all you do... these are important information for me and my family
I don't agree with you Nanelle, UK is the one that is overrated. US is way much better than the poor UK
Welcome back Nanelle
Thanks for the good job
Good information.
My pleasure!
Thank you so much. I’m happy I came across your channel. You are priceless
I appreciate that!
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 This is called campaign to stay in UK 🇬🇧, it won’t work , your UK 🇬🇧 people would say in the comment sessions we love the UK , but would write NCLEX low key and leave 😂😂😂
Its true dear, they will pretend like uk and US is the same but low key doing nclex process
😂
@@samuelfrempong2043 , I swear 😃
Black man for you 😅
Thank you for this.. 🎉❤ I have made my decision already
Thanks, a mill for your honest opinion dear Nanelle, everything has its pros and cons, just left for one to choose what sooths best. welcome back dear.
I totally agree!
Thank you so much Nanelle for this review.
You are so welcome!
As soon as I saw the background I said yaayyy! Welcome back hun🥰❤
You can say that again Nannelle. Its not greener anywhere.
Just let God lead you through the right path.
Thanks for information !!
I agree and disagree with u. I live in the USA for 11 years and am surgical technologist making over $112000 a year after taxes. So what are u talking about? I live in NYC. Sorry love I will never trade 🇺🇸 for any country. UK will visit but will never live there. America is the land of opportunity n land of the free.
Did u even listen to the video😅
@@maureendikeears wide open love.
You should have followed the whole video. She actually expressed fair opinion for both UK and USA.
U didn't mention crime rates. I mean gunshots
@@abahesther3994the uk has no crime?
Great content as usual..... well-done Nanelle
I like the way you are so real and analytical, great content.
Glad you enjoy it!
Welcome back!
We missed you 😅
Thank you for the information 🙏
Thank you! 😃
I love what you do, you're so good at it❤❤❤❤
In all, its about patient
Uk is like a rewarding benefits after the sacrifices whereas USA is a balling unit from day one.
Great piece❤
Nanelle, true, when I read that you are in NI (Belfast) am always like are you safe, especially when i read issues about PSNI.
Good to know you are always safe
Oh wow!
Anyone earning $5500 to $6,000 a month and is only able to save $800 after bills and all is living above their means. You should be able to save about $2000-2500 every month. If a person is married, then that income is doubled. I don’t think the US is overrated.
Women’s problem! Women make 100k in the US and they wanna leave in high rise buildings and drive exotic cars with crazy car payments
63% of Americans leave paycheck to paycheck, and 50% of those earning above 100k per year leave also paycheck to paycheck. Yes, you can say they leave above their means, but if the majority is like this, then maybe this is the new normal for the US.
Thank you for sharing 🙏
I’m keenly waiting for a video of you with nursing or health workers in the scandinavial countries in comparison with the uk like you’ve done with other countries because I’m yet to see one on your channel
What are these bills we pay in the states that are not paid in the uk 🤔break it down coz we would love to note the difference, i've lived in both places and bills are the same sis. What I save as a nurse in the U.S can never be compared to any country in europe, we get a huge amounts of tax returns too in the U.S.
Most countries get tax returns nothing special
@@kwameopoku3576HUGE!! is the word the US give upto 20k dollars tax returns, which I never got in any european or African country. Very big difference.
Thank you Nnanelle for this important information. We should let God leads us to the promise land.
Compare contracted hours in USA and contracted hours in the UK. Not contracted hours in USA vs agency, Locum and side hustle
Please tell her o, she's obviously speaking from two sides of her mouth.
@@ritaprincewill697😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you sis for this information ,God bless you Amen
Amen 🙏🏽
I know people including myself who went to the UK and were disappointed with the roads and houses there? Should we say the UK is overrated?
for the first time I think she is just giving the uk people false reassurance cus u cant compare UK to US in making money wise
@@samuelfrempong2043did you listen well from the beginning to the end instead of jumping to this submission. Nyanuwufia
The house part ehn, so disappointed
When you have money you can build a big house with lots of toilets
@Nanelle, nice video. Thank you , please, Can you do a video comparing living in Australia and United Kingdom as a nurse.
Fair analysis👏🏻👏🏻
Another banger... Well sis🎉❤
You are just good, did your research very well.thankyou
Thank you too
Thanks for the information
My pleasure
Thank you Nanelle, this was eye opening. Can you do a video on Canada Vs UK?
We'll really love this Nanelle!!!
Great suggestion!
Great comparison and thanks for sharing skillshare. I love Griselda.
Thank you Nanelle. This is beautiful.
Glad you like it!
Thank you Nanelle
When i got my ILR i jumped into e commerce & network marketing .I am happy finally 😅
I lived in the USA and visited UK for a week and based on my experience in that one week and the experience my friend (pharmacist) and the wife (a nurse) told me which personally are not things I ove to hear about the health system( long wait time for MRI) for a fracture) and garbage collection every 2 weeks. To some people, those two negatives are enough to make them believe not like the UK if you're coming from the USA where you can get MRi or CT or US the same day or next day with health insurance and garbage collected twice weekly in the county I reside in the USA. My dear presenter. Two weeks are not enough for unbiased assessments of these 2 beautiful countries. Where are the Google. Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, Boeing, Tesla and so on are headquartered? I believe the USA. Why? because of the system that encourages hard work and innovation. The biggest 10 fortune 500 companies are based in the US. Another things the presenter failed to understand and explain to her audiences is that you forgot to mention that the USA has 50 states and each states is like a country or bigger in Europe with law peculiar to the governing of those states unlike in the UK that blanket law.
For an individual who is ambitious and have great ideas to make positive impact in the World, I will suggest USA is the place. Both the USA and UK are great countries, but comparing both countries with information just obtained after 2 weeks stay in the USA are not enough to give your audiences the true picture. Nevertheless, I say great job for even trying to post this
Thank you
I think this presenter sounds really really naive to say but the least. I wish you didn't do this video until you have more or better assessment. There's no comparison.
I can bet with my two balls that you are ignorant of the fact that in the UK, there are also private laboratories for same day or immediate CT and MRI scans. If you want it for free then you have join the long queue.
To be honest she did mention that the USA is bound to have 40 times more opportunities compared to the UK, she did also emphasise that her assessment is based on her personal preferences. She also did an analysis of states and said that Vermont, and some new England states were similar to the certain Northern European economies. New York she said was quiet dear.
@@emmanuelcrayon7730 don’t forget US has Medicare, which is absolutely free for those with minimum incomes and they don’t have to to queue to access healthcare. Even the poorest in the USA has a car. The only thing I like in UK is that it is very close to Nigeria and could be going home like 3 times a year.
I live in the US, and my parents live in the UK. Guys, honestly no cap, this is indeed a thorough review. She really did her assignment.
Thank you 🙏🏽
UK Free healthcare is not exactly free. You paid Health Surcharge and also it has the longest waiting time.
Thank you Nanelle for this video. You gave a constructive opinion.
God bless you nanelle
Good morning Nanelle❤❤
Nanelle those of us that work in Carehomes do we have possibilities to move to USA with an Agent?Most i have contacted prefer those working in the Hospitals.
Thanks for sharing about Skillshare. I need something in those lines.
❤❤❤❤❤Love the way you put those words, I prefer UK no matter what!! Life must go on in the Uk ❤❤ mi love your content 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪Kenya tuko ndani ndaani kabisa 👊👊👊👊Big up
Hutaki kuomoka USA?😂
Umeanza kelele huku? 😂Sasa tuende wapi, I'm confused
Nanelle you are the best always giving us up to date information. God bless you for this. Next time please visit Ireland and compare your experience to the one in the UK❤
Maybe one day!
🥵🥵Shoo welcome back, thought you had left us forever. My favourite
This is like comparing Ghana to Nigeria. A state in Nigeria is bigger than the whole of Ghana.
All your points are valid .. but peace of mind over anything 😂😂😂
Good points made, you can also have a side hustle in the US and even make more because you only work 3 days/week and one 4-day week in a month. By the way, not all nurses get paid biweekly in the US, depending on your union. As a new grad nurse in NY, I get paid every week and make 6 figures ( over 100k$ with no overtime), then I still have my other side hustle and decide to pick up OT when I feel like it. With security issues, I think you nailed it. Nowhere is totally safe, we also hear about gangs and knife violence in the UK though in the US gun violence is a big thing, and that majorly depends on where you live like you said. Every state/city has its own predominantly safe areas, just know about your zip code. People sometimes look for cheap neighborhoods to live in and complain about crime. what do you expect?? One of my friends recently came in from the UK, had a nice/safe time in every state he visited and on his last two days decided to rent a cheap Airbnb in Newark, NJ because his flight was taking off to the UK from Newark. I picked him up at NY airport, hung out and he told me he rented an Airbnb in Newark. I told him to give me the address and after I looked it up, I straight told him he rented an Airbnb in the hood and should have let me know before doing that. He was like how do I know the area is not a good area. Long story short, I went to drop him off there that night. The next building's neighbors were all smoking weed heavily outside lol. I took him to the grocery to get all he needed and told him to just stay indoors all night till the next morning he was going to the airport. The next morning he called me screaming there were gunshots fired on his street and cops were everywhere with the roads blocked on his way to the airport, He was like I am traumatized and I just want to get back to the UK then I was like I told you.
Thanks nanelle, but honestly I love my safety here with my family. Life is not all about money
The ILR is not free, I'm a family of 5 and we are expected to pay over £16000 at the end of the five years. Please do a video explaining how much a UK nurse with a family expecting to pay before they get their permanent residency and the British passport. Thank you.
Welcome back😍
Thank you 🙏🏽
In nhs you have to wait for years, at least 10 to 15 years to get 8d which is equal to the amount of an entry nurse in US with less than a year experience.
Imagine earning $7k in US and save $500 after bills😢😂. That's BS tbh.
Ok.that's great to know but please try and travel to Canada so that we can see the different.
Thank you so much for this comparison... I've been stuck on making a decision UK vs US
I've made a decision already 😊
Where are you going
Please tell us your decision to inspire others
@@we.are.all.barabbas Sorry I don't wish to make my decision public because the reasons as to which I've decided may vary from yours. You just have to do some checks and balances to know which one you'd prefer...Thank you
I love Nanelle and all her videos but I think she was a bit biased towards the UK in this video. I wouldn't advise you to make a decision based on this video. However, the decision is yours to make. All the best.
Hi sis, thank you for the video. For the skill’s share, do I have to input my card details before I can get access to the 1month free course?
Yes you do
But you can cancel after the first month before any deductions are made if you don’t want it anymore
LOL Security Engineer roles on Indeed and LinkedIn pay $140/hr in the US. Even the Director of Uk cybersec doesnt earn that much
But the value of the money too counts.. we shouldn't over exaggerate my husband is in the US and use to come there and I don't see Soo much difference
@@dorcasyeboah699 😂 you people should fear God. IT guys here earn £35K for the same role that pays $150K in the US.. And you'll keep shouting exchange rate as if we don't know how teachers, train drivers and nurses, even Doctors are going on strike everytime. Isnt that why everyone is writing nclex?
@@dorcasyeboah699 do you know how to convert currencies🤣?
@@salmahsjourney3801 and if I don't know you can teach me.. by the way are these countries our own we all came to hustle let us think.
Amazing video sis❤❤❤
Nanelle you are very eloquent, and articulate, now with all the comparisons, joicel is making, your both have a point, but all these are individual preferences. She shouldn't captioned her topic that you lied, unless you agreed with her, you are doing a good job 👏.
Welcome back ❤
Band 8’s and band 7’s are getting the same money as you are talking about so I agree with you NANELLE . On top of it UK is safe
Thank you my sister
erapC
What is the meaning of band 8 and band 7 payments
You’re glowing 😍😍
Nannele, you are down to earth, I ❤ your stance. We will go there for holidays and come back to the peace here. Cheers🎉
😘😘😘😘
Voice of jealousy 😂
Good job 👍
The comparison is always all about been a nurse or doctor , what about been a student in UK and been a student in US and their dependent too.
Nanelle, wellcome back to the promise land the UK. Glad to hear your experience. US is 40 times gun in circulation than the UK and for that reason it is not for me as a country to stay there.
U won’t even get USA bro… only the best people are admitted into USA and that’s y immigrants like Elon musk is the richest man on earth and reside in USA
Probably because you people are so broke you can't afford guns. So you use knives instead 😂. You make it seem like England is some kind of utopia compared to the US . Insane
How long will it take me to the US. Can I use only oet or IELTS to move or I must write NCLEX?
It also depends on which state you live in . Some states are expensive , cost of living is high compared to others .
The wage rate is also determined by cost of living in each state. California, New York are among expensive states compared to Texas and Arizona which are relatively cheaper . However , i believe that it depends on what one really wants , their priorities … and after weighing the pros & cons of both countries then make a decision that works for an individual and his or her family . Thanks again Nanelle for the great insight .
Hello @Nannelle thank you for this beautiful review but you forgot to mention that Nursing practice is far better in the US than the UK.I got a question for you did you work in a hospital while you were in the US?
I was in the Uk for over 2years and i must tell you roles are well spelled out in the US.In the Uk your HCA tells you to share their roles with them cos responsibilities are not well defined,it is so different in the US because you focus on your Nursing roles and nothing else.I must say there are a lot of responsibilities i had in the Uk that are not my roles in the US.What is the point of going to work and you dont enjoy what you do due to the working environment. I think you can review this only if you have worked or stayed in the US for 3-6months...Thats my take.
Her analysis was completely biased and doesn't worth anything.
@@wallk23very very
This time de3 she wasn't fair koraa
Nanelle please compare UK nursing and standard of living with that of Canada.
A great video, but you should have talked about the taxes in both countries.
I love your videos😊
Welcome 🤗 ❤
Welcome back.
Your voice is back as well
Ikr !!
Great video. I learned a lot more. Thanks so much. Well done
Lovely content but the comparison of California annual salary to a Band 8 UK nurse is not comparable dear because it will take a nurse more than 5 years to climb to Band 8 and start earning that much whereas that’s the entry salary of a newly graduated nurse or a new migrant nurse in California.
Hi Nanelle
Great video
How can one contact you for an ad?
Love your videos! You keep it so 💯. It’s refreshing for someone to weigh the pros and cons of each country so honestly! ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Welldone Dear Nanelle❤
Thank you! 🤗
Thanks alot for this video, but am still team 🇺🇸
Same here
In the final analysis, one has to decide whether to nurse or not to nurse.
