This is the TRUTH.

If your family doesn't own a house or they aren't financially buoyant just to start with in Lagos. You have no business with Lagos.

If you are coming from another state to Lagos as Poor Graduate or a Novice who knows nobody in Lagos. Omoh Na suffer you dey oo.

Most People doing fine in Lagos are mostly indigenes whom their Forefathers have Stolen Lands etc and invested heavily during the dark ages.

Another set of people are the Igbos due to their Business Acumen.

Well who knows you can be lucky or dabble into as Usual.

Depending on where you live in Lagos, you'll even see a miniflat of 200

That place is too far abeg. Can't imagine if OP has a job on the Island, they better find another job or they'll be miserable.

Childfree:


I don't even think this question is necessary.

Of all things that would require you spend money, TP at least from your abode to work and health care is the only thing that is fixed you can't directly influence how much you spend. Every other spending depends on you, you are the one to decide how you spend on them. So cut your coat according to your size.

The people who earn 50k and 500k both rent.
The people that earn 50k and 500k both cook something in their pots.
The people who earn 50k and 500k both wear clothe.

And so it goes.

Most definitely how much they spend on what I cited is different, do you know why?

Any amount would do you. Live like someone who earns 150k that's all.

Oga u have another source of income
There is no way u can build a house in the east & run a family with 105k salary, make una dey talk truth abeg...

Natural2Heal:


It's not possible to survive on 105k salary in Lagos as a married man with kids. You will be borrowing to survive and can't build a house from your salary. You are lying.

You can get a good house at Oworo wt 400k or even less.
As a single guy I won't do more dan 300k for rent and won't go far frm my office

my brother I was earning that in Lagos before COVID I can tell u it's not worth it. I was living in a shared apartment and I spend little on rent yet I can't save money I can spend a lot on groceries and health. No time for myself the job was demanding. Couldn't save up to 200k in a year can u see how bad it is. I doubled my hustle increased it to 260k I didn't know more problem I got tired easily because I come home late. My brother just manage it but it not worth it. Was living on the isalnd my house at badore work at VGC yet I can't save Lagos is terrible. Left after COVID.

Have you seen struggle when looking to find transport after closing time? It's hell abeg.

africanusvu:
,no single lie bro, infact i married when i was receiving far lower,see, the problems with jib seekers is that they only look at the salary in quote but forgot that therr are salaries besides salary in service without stealing,a minimum wage earner still pays his children school fees and feed well, what's d magic,take the job first,do it well,then,look deeper and watch ur back,u may soon forget ur salary,no worker,no matter how dull, ever go home at month end with exactly his quoted salary,many makes far more than their salary without stealing,this is mid month,but i av already got close to my salary in same job without any form of illegality,just learn d job well, open ur eye,be good to colleagues,be humble and never be greedy,ogar,there is salary inside salary,i have to be truthful to u,stop looking any how much do they pay
