rationalmind:Bro I live at Ibeju Lekki also From Awoyaya to Ajah is 100 or 150 bucks from Ajah to ketu (if the bus dey ajah) should be 400 to 500 tops cos From Ajah to Oshodi or Iyana Ipaja is at a fee of 500 bucks but when coming back the fee from Ketu should be cheaper but from Ajah back to Awoyaya if you stopping at Mayfair would be around 200-250 bucks. All the same the 50k is good for a start you'll get used to it. Good luck Bro. |

Guy you will survive. People earn less than 50k here. They pay for transportation, professional exams and even rent and yet have change at the end of the month. All you need is good cash management and smart spending Congrats on your new job. |

bros just have it in mind that you have 30k to save after the month . excluding feeding-bill That 50k it really cool for a starter just learn how to save you can open a new savings account (extra) don't collect debit card just do a lot of savings within 8month you should be able to afford an apartment just get ready to deal with stress note: living with your friend just try to be fvking humble pay bills don't even allow them to ask you....contribute if you try to do IDC mehn get ready to suffer and keep praying and keep searching for other job |

Bro congrats on the new job. First off let me welcome you to the lagos job Market and congratulate you for landing you first job.. That said, It's very possible to survive on that even if where you where coming from was ibeju. Why Because others are doing it on far less. If you feel this job is worth your time and the possibilities for improve pay or better job offer is available to you then take it. One lesson i have learnt from working far away from home and working for close to nothing is, there are always opportunities to do more or get a better offer. One plus for you is you will be working against traffic in some of your journeys. But if you are thinking it's far and it's not worth it. Consider this I once worked on the island for two years. One thing my bosses liked me for was my ability to be at the office on time, way way on time. I got to the office as early as 6:30 or latest 7:30 for an office that resumes 8:30. What was my pay package then, you ask 70k minus tax and pension. (do the mathes). Where was I coming from? Matogun (some where in ogun state, that Google maps still regard as "inside thick bush" The journey home could be grueling, but with my trusty bluebook ear piece and noise cancellation, I mostly slept through it while listening some of my favorite jam. You might ask what i did it? Cos I never liked the idea of staying over at someone's place. It cost an arm and a leg in transportation cost plus bus jumping an fighting. But the piece of mind I felt once I got home and opened my door, for me far out weighted what ever stress I faced that day. My advise, take job an try it out for 3 month. If after that you feel it ain't worth it, you can always not come to work after pay day of the third month. Cos what have you got to loose 5 Likes |

if your office fulfills its obligation by not holding back ur pay. you will survive. but your health will suffer due to the long distances you have to travel, irregular eating pattern and bad traffic. |
