Location Vietnam

Expenses for one person per month...

1) Accomodation (1 bedroom) - $230

2) Electricity and water - $10-12

3) Everything food including ijekuje- $60 -$80

4) Fuel - I drive a lot - $25 max

5) Internet - $18. I forgot to negotiate internet as part of rent which is the norm here

6) Miscellaneous... more ijekuje and things I don't need -$50

Total -$415





Wait bro, is this yhur weekly expenses or monthly? If the later is the answer then I spend even more here in Nigeria than yhu.

A bigger apartment though, but $10 -$12 for electricity and water, I definitely spend much more than yhu.

This month bill NEPA brought is 46k with on and off electricity and I fuel my gen cry cry

My approach these days is to find an investment I am interested in either take a loan or agreed on an automatic payment plan. So whatever is left after can be shared among village people. In that I can save something for myself in the form of an investment
