Things are ridiculously expensive. Went for groceries yesterday and the amount I had to pay on food tax is ridiculous. My takehome from daily hustle is only a little above $1270 and bills and food take over $1000 monthly

You need to reduce the amount of food you eat.

How can you be spending almost 700k on food in a month.

You be horse?

Until u travel and see for yourself. Many states in America have different minimum wage,hence the true situation.

Bro as you no fit send money home right now no suppose dey bother you abeg. Do your work, chop well and pay your bills for now and later better ways go open up then you can be sending money home as you wish.

No let people for home put pressure for your head too much, everybody knows it isn't easy anywhere right now so anyone bothering you for money even after you have explained to him/her should try sending you money first if it's that easy.

Things are ridiculously expensive. Went for groceries yesterday and the amount I had to pay on food tax is ridiculous. My takehome from daily hustle is only a little above $1270 and bills and food take over $1000 monthly

I am not doubting him, a lot of people are living in penury here. Some are too lazy to change their situation and some, just lack the right information. It might sound unreal but some folks are making $10-12/hr here grin grin

Read that statement again. He said bills and food. Bills include rent, electricity and gas, water bill, medical insurance and other expenses.

Is $1270 your daily or monthly salary?

Re: Reasons I Can't Send Money Home From Abroad by ttmacoy: 5:16pm On Oct 24, 2022
What are you buying that you are spending $1k on food a month?

What country/city do you live in and how many people in your household?

There's nothing to believe in the guys story, he makes $1270 and spends $1,000 on food, what is he eating to spend $1k a month on? And the only proof he can show is the end o a receipt for $75, doesn't even show us what he bought for $75 grin

1270 USD a month seems a bit low. Are you a student?
