How decent Logosian dey be? Abi nor be the same amala dem dey chop? Logosian dey borrow money and buy car for show up.
Wear Native and throw party.

K_ONE: There was a time I survived by 25k monthly and I even double date sef! yet I don't beg for anything.

Akin-David:
What! You don't mean it..when a family man is maintaining his family with 40% of that. You need to set your priorities right and keep improving on yourself with your meagre resources, with God on one's side that #130k will soon be a tithe. Believe.

Dprinzcolection: Yes it is possible only if you will cut your coat according to your size.
130k is a lot of money to some people and to some 130 is too small.

tumababa:

if she is not planning to look for accommodation, just to feed herself and fuel d car,not staying 100 miles from d workplace and not planning to spend for a guy, she will have savings with dat salary.

Red-Light:


I bet you are not in uK. taxes alone are enough to reduce your life span

9jadelta: na ur mom dey pay house rent then?

Ms_Steph: Lagos is not expensive. But if its abuja or ph it is too small especially wen it comes to accommodation. But since d 130k comes in monthly its very ok. Pple get 20k monthly but still survive

barikay: i thought @op was talking abt 13k. Many even survive on 25k per month

Erelu_Y: Our baby of the family is returning to Lagos from the UK and the lecturing job on offer pays around ₦130,000 per month. Can a single person used to UK lifestyle survive on this income in today's Lagos? If so, how? She's not extravagant but lives a basic, decent lifestyle: no partying, clubbing, etc, (her only weakness is she likes and does have a nice 4 x 4 which suits Naija's bad roads), just a typical acada girl. Your contributions would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

K_ONE: na me dey pay o! But na one room I rent that time.

tellwisdom: 130k, na money for beer abi money for perfume??

Ms_Steph: Lagos is not expensive. But if its abuja or ph it is too small especially wen it comes to accommodation. But since d 130k comes in monthly its very ok. Pple get 20k monthly but still survive

danny301: .
How much is your monthly income?.... Just be honest.

You want to rob me?? Abi u wan force your sis for my head??

Dr. Do Good:


Please tell her to stay back in UK, she cant survive in Lagos with that amount, meanwhile let her or you connect me with the job, because one of my cousin is seriously looking for a job.
Thanks

.....when married men and families are surviving with just 50k and u are here talking about single person with 130k. [b][/b]

Seriously?? you mean those people dont eat and drink beer??..That 50k is for my beer and nkwobi. Chai

lekkie073: 130k is a whole lotta money. being a woman, she doesn't even need to spend half of it. we men are there for her

Orikinla: Yes.
Majority of the people in Lagos are poor and have survived on even N20, 000 monthly for donkey years.

Osogagba: Why is it that people just respond to issues raised on NL without fully understanding the contexts of those issues. The main cause of concern for Erelu who posed the question is the fact that the impending returnee is already used to her living standards in the UK. If she comes back on a 130K salary, would she get something similar or close? This to me means taking consideration some of our peculiar challenges like lack of regular power, water,etc. Would she have to spend money out of that salary providing some of those necessities for herself?
