How My Monthly Salary Is Used On Foodstuff Only by Nobody: 5:10pm On Oct 15, 2021
I earn 25k monthly,i use almost of it to buy food, and to fill my gas

Before 20th of the month, all the foodstuffs would be consumed, i will have to go on to borrow money to eat before the end of the month

Now the issue here is that My parent do ask me every time if I'm suffering from spirituality complications why i don't save for almost 3 years now I've been working, i tried to explain to them that the money is use to buy food

Note i live in the company's apartment, hence why I'm not living with them, and I'm 26years and have younger ones living with them

Now the help i need from you guys is how can you enlighten me how i can live on the money and still saving out of it, cos im not getting younger anymore

And in Nigeria where there is no job security,they can fire me from work anytime, how will i leave work without no saving and will still go home eating mama's food

This is the reasons why i don't have gf,friends or visit them at home thinking it will save me more money to save


This is not a life i wanted, help me guys


I'm not getting younger,now I'm planning to start some online business, buy a pos and do some stuff to earn me money monthly, so anytime i live this work i can rely oncry


Before u guys insult me or call me a glutton, please note this, in osun state where I'm living, foodstuffs is super expensive every day, spaghetti i always live on rises from 220 to 350naira presently

This is not a typical me, before Buhari' s administration, talking about 2015,i do save alot of money even those time i earn meager 10k monthly, even that time i have gf, friends

Truly men are really facing a lot to meet their financial needs,but you didn't state the cut for olosho,why did you hide that aspect? You see most of these present day young men ehn,even if they receive 10naira monthly they will still cut olosho own aside like 3naira from the 10naira and tell their parents they are receiving 7naira as salary.

It is because there is sb you believe who is always willing to lend you.

Now the issue here is that My parent do ask me every time if I'm suffering from spirituality complications why i don't save for almost 3 years now I've been working, i tried to explain to them that the money is use to buy food
Na food you come this life come chop? Ị kpebiri igbu onwe gị, chukwu nnam ehhh!

Note i live in the company's apartment, hence why I'm not living with them, and I'm 26years and have younger ones living with them
At a point in my life, I was paying my rents, bills, had a brother staying with me and I was paid ₦12k monthly. I had no one to lend me money.

Now the help i need from you guys is how can you enlighten me how i can live on the money and still saving out of it, cos im not getting younger anymore cry

Hello my brother,
I will not lie to you, neither will I mince words nor patronise you...thank God on Sunday I sha don't know you in person. cry

If the company provides accommodation for you...which translates that you don't pay rents, ekwesiri iji ntu kukasiagi isi!

I am not saying ₦25k is too big...but damn it, I read a post of a noble man here who is married and probably with kids now surviving on ₦35k monthly...ginwa họọrọ ịbụ onye na -eri oké nri. I don't think it's even because you wallow in gluttony...onu uto akugbola gi!

What nonsense! What akpiridacity!

If you aren't Igbo to understand what I am typing, na your problem.

I am catering for four of my siblings staying with me with nobody to borrow from, or an extra hand. The key is buying things in bulk. Avoid onu uto! Learn to drink water while you eat...eat small, drink water small! Six wraps of fufu does not mean you have made it in life...people eating two haven't died finish! Hapu umu agbogho!! cry

Better diverse your income and stop living a scavenger life or start making a scale of preference before ma pata gi aka.


Lalasticlala, come and carry your brother before I lose my temper.

Well, I'll add more things since you decided to update the thread with the below:

We are still on the same page,you can't keep a girlfriend with this salary hence the reason you patronize olosho.Don't be shy to admit it,its a faceless forum.

The solution to your problem is to stop borrowing..even if it means going hungry, eating once a day or fasting every first week of the month..

Try as much to save 5k every month..

This is serious oooo.


But even if its 5k monthly, you should be able to save, why would you use the whole of 25k to eat every month without transportation and monthly or weekly internet subscription......


Are you a glutton?

Apart from feeding, do you pay bills?
I Know rent is out of it.

Since you're not paying rent, you can manage 20k for feeding and be saving 5k.
I know it's not easy but just try. Then see if you can get a side hustle to support.

OP it won't be bad thing if you don't go borrowing (provided you also don't take of your younger ones, parents or gamble).

Now it's bad because you do borrow.

Why not start cooking always and stop eating outside.

Also na your money you fit chop am. Probably you need a better paying job.

It is practically impossible to survive on a 25k salary in this boohariii regime.
