Not everything you disclose even to family or friends. ...when they see or hear about what you earn or receive as salary, their goes your wahala.....every now and then, they will start asking you for one favour or the other and when you decline narrating your own tight budgets and programme, they will tagged you wicked uncle, wicked brother or stingy person....it's best you stay cool and make they just knw say you dey hussle or work..finish! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Girlfriend: " Like how much do they pay you monthly ?" Discussion within my inner demons in my head: The bad demon: Increase the amount so that she will know how big u are. The occasionally good demon: No don't increase the price b/c her needs will increase. Be careful o The bad demon: OK reduce the amount to avoid her unnecessary demands. The rude demon: Don't mind the occasionally good demon and the bad demon, the girl will be on the look out for wealthier guys if u tell her that. The rude demon: Tell her to mind her business The logical demon: confuse her by asking her a question The demonic demon: Tell her to f**k off My response: Do you intend to add to my salary? 12 Likes 1 Share

In a country where everything is measured by money, I rather remain mysterious. Why will somebody ask me what I earn in the first place? Hian 1 Like |

Nothing wrong about knowing what you are earning , nobody will take it away from you. |
Re: What Is Your Opinion On Asking People What They Earn? by Alexaonfleek: 2:22pm On Dec 31, 2019 |
Sometimes the reason why people will ask is not necessarily for bad belle or to borrow......eg for a business I can ask someone what he or she gets from it to know if to start the business or not. But na naija we dey Just be careful of who you're giving that kind of sensitive info to |

Why not also ask me when last I had an erection... What normal and educated adult asks the following questions in this day and age: 1. What do you earn??! 2. How many children do you have? 3. Why have you not gotten pregnant, what are you waiting for??! (Like, for real?) 4. What are you waiting for to start working??! etc... 2 Likes |

It a matter of choice... When I was working I keep the truth about my salary to myself, most especially my families as I don't have friends or keep friends, I can only tell them when I have leave the said job |

NwanyiOkpa: I think it should be respected as private especially as the same amount of Money tends to have different values in different hands. E.g. You may think my salary is BIG but it is nothing compared to my financial comittments /proposed investments or you may think my salary is small but my Employer covers the major things one spends their BIG-er salary on e.g. Housing, Education, Health (Insurance) 1 Like |

Just like someone put up there that African mentality has really affected us. Personally, I don't think there is big deal in knowing what you earn. I have a brother abroad who on his own tells me how much he earns before getting a new job in an hospital. But for me, I don't see the reason why I need to ask him how much he now earns in the new job. But there is an exception; for instance, I want to go for an interview for a job and I know who works in that same organization, I can ask... please what's is the renumeration of this organization like". It is not like I am asking how much the person earns but for me to know what I should expect. I'm sure the person will tell me, but perhaps not the exact salary scale. My thought though! 1 Like |
