Most Nollywood Actors And Actresses Are Poor

I saw a very popular Nigerian actor recently at my mechanic's workshop and he was looking a bit shabby and was askin me 4 a ride 2 his street what image does that leave of Nigerian actors and Actresses?

its not about affording to live in the most expensive places and driving posh cars its all about living comfortably evryone has responsibilities and so they gotta live according to the economic situation and according to individual choices. is dere anyone that feels i am making sense.

lol i saw emeka ike  in the airpot looking shabby and ashy as hell, rockin fake D&G. and rita dominic saw her in abuja is some beaten up old school benz she too was shabby as hell !!!! what a shame

wel. .  . . .i wont say they r poor,but they should b more comfortable than they r,as should our musicians.
I saw essence on a bike in ajao estate lookin like a refugee from liberia,i almost broke down in tears

What about Ramsey Nopuah, is he considered rich and does he live in his own house in a decent area in Nigeria?  From all the hallow balloo about him, he must be.  I await a response on this.

in Genny's intreveiw, it was said that she lived in an eye popin mansion on victoria island.
and a lot of the other stars have very very flsshy cars.
and most of them don't do anything apart from actin.
so where do they get their money from??


u don't know what your talkin about.
2 million naira anually in Nigeria n u will live very very comfotably.
in Nigeria lets say u rent a house in a ey comfortable are 4 ( i know it wont be up to) 1 million.
with only 1 million naira left u will live like a king.
how much they dey sell groceries??? abeg u no know wetin u dey talk.
with all the bills they charge in the states.
gas, phone, internet, light, water, tv,  etc.

Well, someone wrote earlier that rents in Victoria Island command about 3 million Naira, so, if I was making 2 million Naira in Nigeria, then VI would not be on my list. In San Jose, I can easily net a 2 bedroom unit in a very nice part of San Jose, or even move to Atlanta, where the rents are cheaper, and live comfortably with 100k. Will I get running water 24/7, constant electricity, etc?

Ritchboy, I am not going to trade barbs with you, but would advise you to read thoroughly before contributing your opinion on this topic, as well as others. A respondent wrote that 2 million Naira was of greater value, in Nigeria, than 100k, and I disagreed. Our debate was on the relative value/worth of a particular currency in their locale, (that is the worth of Naira in Nigeria, vs the value of Dollar in America), not the value of the dollar in Nigeria. Now, if I was given the option of earning 100k in America, or its equivalent in Nigeria, I would choose the latter.

But come o what exactly is our prob in this part of the world why do we like condemning our own things Nollywood actors/actresses are poor how poor are they? and what is yr own defination for been poor? this people are doing just too good in their own field at east they do not beg for food do they?  you said they cannotafford to live in vgc etc must every wealthy ones live in vgc tell me now cash madam/man?
