How Do You Save Money As A Bachelor? by mecussey(m): 11:40am On May 14, 2012
I have been thinking on how to do this but no way. My average daily income is less than 4k, but i spend 1k on feeding, 1k on recharge cards, 1k on beer, and an average of 2k on uncertainties. Basically, I spend 5k every day. I am finding it difficult to save money, though, I am a final undergraduate who is catering for himself. Is it just a weakness or do I need to work on myself or work harder?

Obviously u r spendn far abv ur means. D way to go is sacrifice and compromise. Cut down on daily expenses. I doubt if the average nigerian spends upto 1k on rechaj card on daily basis. 2k on drinks? I cud mek maximum profit selling drinks to u alone,lol. 1k aint dat bad for food on daily basis considering the inflation in the country. Chiaz.

Yes yusuf, 1k recharge card helps do the biz. The beer aspect is what i am working on, the brain stops functioning when I stop. I ve planned to cutting it down to low quality beer but then, thats not enough. Feeding and uncertainties are just inevitable; uncertainties comes in different forms, health, school, fuel, maintenance etc. I wonder how an averagr niger guy survives. Would you be kind enough to tell me how you do your own savings.

You really need to work on yourself. Please cut the beer and join a co operative or isusu. Which will force you to put something aside.
