Things are not easy at all

Princess80:
i cant really say, it depends on the city since COL varies widely.

someone earning $30k before tax could SURVIVE in missisippi or florida but it will be suicidal to live in NYC or washington with such amount.
funny a thing, i was thinking of relocating to Austin

let me ask u a question, is it true that in America, their citizens received income or a kind of social security from US government? If yes how much pls?

Mamzi:


It's all about presenting a captivating CV that shows you have the exact experience of the job you are applying for. It must be a reputable private company or a government body because NGO management will conduct a strict background check on you before employing you . This is after you are lucky you get shortlisted for interview and you Impress them. .

big thanks for the response

ynotsadeek:
Not gonna lie, the rate COL has skyrocketed is seriously alarming.

I can only imagine how some people manage to survive.

I spend ₦50-60k monthly (I cut extremely down on needless spending) and save 30% in stock trading account (₦57-100k+)

Good months, I save more.

And to those struggling, my advice is they learn how to leverage legit opportunities on the internet.

Any serious and really hungry, 100-300k online monthly is easy.

God go help all of us shaa.

What are the ways to earn such online?

Everybody in this nairaland is earning millions of naira a month. Where are the ones that earn below 100k?

I dont work fr anybody but man de earn online

Thanksful:

Due to the high cost of living in almost every part of the world, its obvious people spend alot to get by, so how hard is it for you?

For me i spend around 80k monthly while i earn 95k, i save only 10-15k lolz

I earn 10k daily and i spend 5k on feed and other expenses daily and i save 5k and sometimes i even spend more that 5k daily because am a glutton, i eat alot and the country is hard!

Not enough if I'm being honest, still I'm hopeful to either win the N20M grand prize or N5M cash prize for runners-up in the 9th season of The Next Titan Entrepreneurial Reality show. Registration link below my signature.

100 thousand dollars a year is everyone benchmark for a good salary but most people dont earn that much.

Depending on the state 50k is manageable

richmond500:
how much is considered a good salary in usa?

owiko:
I know that people earn way more than some of the figures up there. But there are people who earns almost nothing, but would see this thread as avenue for oppression

Change your mindset bro... even if some people are lying self, you nor know them. Better view things as motivation rather than oppression, It open up your mind for that kind of earning possibilities. I earn 840k Max in a month... sometimes 400k. In dollars though.

I still dey squat. Lol. Who follow me understand what I meant in my previous post!

Ndidi2:
cut down on some things.
Every night we use small solar to do things and eat.

I bought 1 bag of white beans from nairaland here #43000. to reduce cost bc 1 bucket of sweet Brown is #2300 and their bucket de small.

I do pap myself and fry akara anyhow and plenty without thinking beans go soon finish.

Anytime l cook rice l cook beans.

I fry less now.l boil

No more poor ( pure water) l boil and sieve it all by myself.

We use estimated meter so l do most of my cooking with electricity no matter when. Especially beans.

You think cost of living is less in Texas?

I'm not American, neither do I live in America. But I wonder why, based on statistics, the cost of living in republican run states with their ultra-capitalist orientation is lesser than democrat run states with socialist agenda.

That's why many people run to places like Texas and Florida, based on what I read on Reddit.

About 1,2000,000 monthly after tax. 60% rent monthly. Then upkeep.

I eat when I feel like, my family are fine and I give something to people around me that are hungry. It can only be God. Thank you God, I'm grateful

What are the ways to earn such online?

There are several ways, but I'm a lazy youth so I do the easy that anyone can easily get results from.

But please mind you, I don't do "get rich quick schemes"

If that's what you're looking for, sorry I can't help.

But if otherwise, check my profile, send me DM on WhatsApp let's talk better.

SamJed:
Luckily, I earn daily. I work as a content writer and get paid daily. Anywhere from 3k to 10k per day...sometimes as high as 30k per day. Once alert comes in for the day, I will remove either 1k or 2k for savings....i no dey chop pass 2k each day as a bachelor. Once month ends, I still have a minimum of 50k savings wey i no dey touch plus excess of like 30k, bills paid too....sha its good to work remotely o but it affects my social life

So what you earn annually is what some footballers sitting on the bench a whole season earn in just one week this life nor just balance I swear

Na so

How much after taxes? Taxes are very high in the US right?

Princess80:
i earn $70k annually before tax
i spend around $35k annually and i live in manhattan

things also get insanely expensive in the last couple of years, finding a bedroom of $1400 monthly is like searching for a needle in an ocean
nah, im not used to the Houston kind of life, I prefer Austin
