Can Someone Survive On ₦130,000 Monthly In Lagos? by EreluY(f): 12:07am On Jul 13, 2013 |
Our baby of the family is returning to Lagos from the UK and the lecturing job on offer pays around ₦130,000 per month. Can a single person used to UK lifestyle survive on this income in today's Lagos? If so, how? She's not extravagant but lives a basic, decent lifestyle: no partying, clubbing, etc, (her only weakness is she likes and does have a nice 4 x 4 which suits Naija's bad roads), just a typical acada girl. Your contributions would be highly appreciated. Thanks. 1 Like |

She may not have more than ₦10k or ₦20k left in savings each month though. I've taken into consideration basic living expenses and average cost of fuel for her 4x4, though you didn't state how far away from work her home is (which is very important in Lagos, what with bad traffic). I hope this helps? 9 Likes |

What! You don't mean it..when a family man is maintaining his family with 40% of that. You need to set your priorities right and keep improving on yourself with your meagre resources, with God on one's side that #130k will soon be a tithe. Believe. 20 Likes |
