fellows, please can u advice a friend of mine that is earning N30,000 monthly on how he can survive with this amount because he is planning to get married in the next 9months without having an accomodation yet since he is looking for a good self contain but the rates are too high & also he is planning to continue his education.
Fellow nairalanders, tell me how can he survive with such an amount especially in this economic meltdown.

About a year ago i asked myself same question. I was earning 30k as well yet i went ahead with the wedding plans. I was having barely 10k in my account and my wife is from the east of this country if u know what i mean, she was not working cos' she just graduated. I was not sure of what i was doing but one thing i'm sure of is dat i love my wife dearly. Faith! my guy is the key, how strong is your faith? I'm not a strong believer but my wife is and she made me believe that with God all things are posible.
I did my traditional and church weddings in sept and dec 2008 respectively and my friends dat withnessed the occassion were like saying if i did not spend at all for the 2 occassions i would i've spent nothing less than 2m. For them to rate my wedding that high dats to show u dat it was not a small thing. How is that posible? Im yet to understand but dats how God works.
Today i'm earning 61k, tomorrow its going to be doubled, do u know why? cos' i have faith. It does not matter how much u are paid.

My brother, i used to ask myself the same question until i started my job. All i believe the person needs is focus.
I also totally agree with seniorklop. Its not how far, but how well. There are so many pple earning over a hundred thousand every month but their debt/loans run into million.

All d person needs to do is to avoid sewing cloths for now, let alone cutting the cloth according to be size, if u get what i mean. Avoid unnecessary expenses and only spend money when absolutely necessary. This is not being stingy, it is WISDOM. God bless u!

guy doubt nobody oh!is he a govt worker?if yes,you no those guys find a way 2 survive,another thing is that,there are some relationships you fine urself and u are so confident of going 2 the alter even if you have nothing but then make ur guy give himself brain oh!
