I was given 6 fingers of unripe plantain for #1k, I spit on the ground and walked away. I can't explain to my wife why I couldn't buy the plantain she asked me to buy. I have lost count of people that always come to my shop begging for feeding money.
May God help us.
eeyah...

70 gini? And you are complaining shocked. Poverty is really a disease. Can you imagine that I felt elated when I saw the meagre sum? sad
20k is too poor in this recession,haba! Government should help the masses.Here on the island,you rent a room for #18000 per month.

Many of u come up here and type this shit, but in reality you live in a slum and could barely feed urself, this so called lucrative keke driving is it only found on the internet and not in reality.
What he typed there is nothing but the white truth....know of a guy who has a keke napep....the higher purchaser pays him 15k everyweek but before the week runs out the higher purchaser makes more than 20k...also depend on the states of your resident...here in ph people don't trek....just a stone throw they will pay keke....you see a small girl even taking a drop....ph people and luxirious lifestyle.

If you want to advice boss, be accurate at least.

You cant start a meaningful poultry for 50k.

How much is the poultry cost, how much are the chicks, feeding nko, their medicine.

I am thinking of going into fishery sometime next year and to do something meaningful, you need nothing less than 500k.

My point is instead of doing half assed biz, do something worthwhile.

For 50k, i will consider going to aba, getting footwears and selling.

His dad died 10 years back, from all indication the mum was probably a house wife. Where will she start from in this country without life assurance.

This scenario happens a lot, especially where the man is d sole bread winner. Some women are able to recover but when you have 6 mouths to feed. Damn bro, that aint easy. People who are comfortable with 3 are complaining

less than 20k?

I guess you don't pay for accommodation, transport yourself to work, eat out (at least a meal). If you are staying in Lagos, that money may finish on just transportation depending on where u live and work. It may not even afford your rent (annual divided by 12).

Its difficult to survive with anything less than 100k per month; and that's just for the single felas.
oga nt only in lagos bt everywhere, especially southwest

yeepa!!!!

mehn am sooo humbled by this thread. people should really start shedding off their fake life and start being real!!!

lyk OP, am a teacher with exactly 20k for payday. .the truth is, I like love what I do and so, am into different educational business outfit. The hustle is crazy, the cash is really nothing but i know something is building up. with that mindset, i try to get better everyday. improve my skills. expand my knowledge and deliver quality services against all odds.

why would I do all these?
well, I dropped out of uni (financials noni) and there certainly won't be any office work for me but i dare any school to look at my CV again after giving me 10minutes with their students. now, that's the difference.

and would this teaching be my only source of income?
certainly not! am an investor. investing time and money on other ventures. an investor with a zeal to learn, unlearn and relearn. .

don't forget that am still a broke boy hustling tho'

If your salary is 70k below, just collect this month's payment and go look for a business to invest in.

70k no fit carry person for one month in this APC regime. Do you know that in a day you can't do without spending at least 1,500 on transportation and feeding? undecided

hmmm....well articulated. even d 1 5 sef na benchmark...anything to spend lesser than this...1 might not b different from an HIV contracted individual

You can start poultry with 50k...I run my business.If you're on the island and have space, bring 50k... i will meet you in person.. and start your oultry with just 50k...I won't compromise on my ideas.. yes i know one needs vaccinnes, feeds, staffs, feeding etc.. but at a point of desperacy as this recessive economy, one ought to look for out of the box ideas to start... I didnt say to run a poultry, i said to start...and as one starts things expands...shikena

I have a father, legs working, hands working, every workable parts working and he plainly refused to do anything for the past 10yrs. . .4 children, only ssce. my mom is the queen of hustle and the breadwinner of the family!!

what's all the empty tale for?

although i don't accept excuses like mine but I know it would have made the difference if the mom had tried all she could to put atleast one, if not all of them through uni!!!

damn! this country is tough but if u see how some parents are designing their families, u will weep in agony. . .its crazy!!!!

Don't blame anybody for your predicament, learn to hold yourself responsible, it's your life after all, what you make out of it rest.

You know what?.. Whatever situation you find yourself... You are always in the middle, you are better than someone, and someone is better than you.
