It breaks my heart whenever I hear or see men and women who have to depend on what they make on a daily basis to feed their families. Basically, feeding is the much they can offer their children. Imagine what the unrelenting rainfall must done to their finances.
I often try my best to assist, but the situation is rather overwhelming.

Wahala for salary earners in this buhari regime.
Reason I keep telling people to get an Online /Remote Job earning means.

In another news if you have access to Internet + browsing gadgets and you ain't earning via your online activities in this times of economic crisis in Nigeria then you are very unwise.
To earn online you have to possess and make use of one or all three of this basics;
# Skill
# Service
# Investment Capital.
learn how to earn $100 weekly with Whiteboard Animation for just a token mentorship of $20 or it's equivalent in Naira.....you will be held by the hand for a 4weeks training towards the mastery and earning even before the end of the training period.
reach out via the facebook id on my profile...i won't respond to email requests.
Get your ass a digital skill mentorship!

@Seniorwriter

All of you coming here to say get an online job
This and that
Do you know there are people who actually earn more than u do in a month.


The major tin is have control over your spendings and all that.


I stay in a less expensive place in Nigeria.

Who you dey ask?

A man who wrecked your economy in 1984 was packaged by some hard core and desperate polithiefcians led by Tinubu.

SEE, the man has hardship distribution in his gene. He CAN NEVER make a nation prosper. He will only inflict pain and hardship on people and then turn back to BLAME SOMETHING.

Enjoy your change people!!!

Don't mind that guy o
If he was earning so much,why is he going around begging people to come and learn while paying learning fees

I have never seen a rich man begging the poor to come and learn from his source of wealth

Dear salary earners like me, how do you manage your salary with the current economic situation and high cost of commodities (more than 50% and above), how do you cope.
1. Reduce spending,spend only when necesary
2. Use car only wen going out with family else use motocycle
3. Stay at home except wen extremely necesary to go out
4. Reduce meat qty or replace with egg or fish
5. Buy different/cheaper food stuff
6. Reduce amount of gifts giving
7. Try some small petty businesses at home
8. Buy stuffs in bulk
Etc

I'm not a salary earner but I would really love to know how you all do the "magic" as the average Nigerian youth's salary is less than 60k. How do you all do it abeg??

Honestly, I will like to hear it too...

I see the current cost of basic commodities like food, fuel, gas, etc, and I wonder how those families earning less than 60k a month are doing it?!!

I mean, a single person can't even survive on 50k a month in this accursed administration. How then can husband, wife and kids survive on it?!! What and how do they feed?!!

This country is sitting on a very dangerous time bomb!!!

Those of you who think you are financially secure, hence far removed from the million others should think again...

A nation with millions poor and hungry is completely ripe for anarchy!!! No one is safe!!! High fences and personal security won't mean a damn thing!

I earn 13k a month: data, transport, feeding, taking care of myself dey chop everything. I literally have no savings; can't even eave anything. My only hope is to make it as a software engineer. Life's not easy when you are poor.
Do you live on your own? Because I don’t understand how 13k can do all these for you. That’s not even up to how much I spend on airtime alone in a month.

It hasn't been easy at all

The first thing I do when I receive salary is to draw up a list of the things I don't have in the house and shop for them first especially foodstuffs because the worst thing that would happen to you is if you're hungry in this kind of economic situation

Then I subscribe for internet and my DSTV to keep me entertained in the house to avoid some unnecessary things that would make me spend like going out often

I try not to carry a lot if cash around so as not to fall into the temptation of unnecessary expenses

Finally, as a single guy, I avoid slay mamas for unnecessary billing or if I can't, I'll just say things to get them upset and not apologising so that the drama will last long

Not to mention that I'm still acquiring skills to help me move out of this country and be useful outside because I can't allow my kids experience what I'm experiencing
how 'bout crypto, grin grin
You no de keep money wey u go invest ?

Whoever said that adulthood makes sense is truly a liar
As a student,I was surviving,paying my school fees and everything on my own through social media influencing on Twitter
Now the useless FG has banned Twitter,none of the companies are no longer using Twitter so no more money for me

The 300k I was saving to set up a work station for programming and learning online is now what I use to pay my fees and other bills...
Nothing like hardwork,honesty and determination pays
Only the wicked and cunning survive in this country

Shey man no go start yahoo like this
There is no worse hell than Nigeria
Quite sad @bold
Reason govt should stop making senseless decision just to please their ego! What have Nigeria as a nation gained from the twitter ban? It has only make things more difficult for people! This current govt is something else. Ban twitter, ban crypto, wetin youth wan take survive!
