If you can create a thread on nairaland means you are somewhat educated.

Why don't you get into some skills that you earn you US Dollars.

Remember $100 is now over 80k

There are many places Nigerians can easily earn legitimately.

Please I am not talking about any investment

Once you collect your salary go to a good joint, buy roasted fish and plantain, eat well, take 2 bottles of cold beer. Then go to the nearest motor park with the remaining amount. Take a bus back to your village.

How to manage 25k as a bachelor

1. Start working on getting other streams of income. goalsplanners can help. Its actually very easy.

2. If possible try to get an affordable place close to where you work, spend less on transportation. Take a walk to most locations you want to go as much as you can, its also healthy.

3. Create a monthly budget to match your income and stick to it until your other source of income comes thru.
For example house rent 10k, food 5k, etc

4. Live a disciplined life, dont indulge in excesses until you can afford it i.e drinking, womanising etc.

5. Be smart enough to locate ngos, or worship centers where they regularly give free food so you can cut down on cost of feeding.

6. Try to be extremely useful to people with means, go the extra mile to get stuff done for them without charging them until they can trust you, e.g wash their car free, clean their house etc they will soon draw u close and help you out

7. Find a way to keep developing yourself for free...so many apps have this (there are locations with free wifi), so many locations u can read for free. A man with vast knowledge can NEVER remain poor for too long.

8. You will eventually need a good woman by yourside, a confidant, a helper. Find a lady that is supportive and not demanding, that encourages you to stick to your budget and conservative lifestyle. Be loyal to her, you may not be able to give her money but give her attention, care and loyalty. But dont get married until your other source of income pulls thru.

That's impossible. Can only work if someone else is paying your rent and feeding you. The 20k can be used for other essentials.

That's how inconsiderate some Bosses can be.

I remember when I was paid 12k salary, I tried requesting for salary increase but it fell on deaf ears, I had to quit the job.

Now 12k is nothing compared to what I earn on daily basis.

Some bosses feel you're helpless and decides to oppress you.

Bro... Learning skill is very good but from my observation taking people within my cycle as a case studies. Presently in my compound, I have like 2 to 3 guys that learned Aluminum but they resort to work 4 salary. They have been into that for d past 2yrs now.
Reason be say no work forthcoming and no available funds yet to get them the necessary equipments. Same as people learn tiles and tailoring too.

It’s virtually impossible to survive on 25k monthly in this present economy . Please there’s nothing anyone can say to convince me . You can’t solely survive on that amount no matter your doggedness.

Bro you’ve not got a job yet, this is not funny atall. Find means, find ways to survive . At worst you’ll manage 60k which translates to 2k daily . 25k is just 800 naira, shey u no go pay transport, u no go chop ni ? U no go blow whistle? U no go buy data ? U no go buy cloth? U no go pay rent? Except you’re seeing support and tips here and there , but 25k solely it is not possible in every sense of it, even if you Dey drink everyday!!!!!!!!.

You must learn how to negotiate salary with your boss

Tell them confidently you are ready to work diligently and honestly but a 25k salary needs some side attraction for you to be effective

You have a conversation like....

Sir; due to increase in cost of living 800 daily isn't enough for me to work effectively

Then you go further....

Sir; My feeding cost 600 to 1000 daily
My transport cost 200 daily
Accomodations cost 60,000 anually

Please would you be open to negotiate my salary further I will be very happy


.

You need to understand the nature of the job he does before anything. For such amount, it's probably a unskilled role which makes him swiftly replaceable.

You should also consider that the business itself is also under the economic situation that threatens it. A lot of businesses are meant to fail around this time.

He may be lucky with his negotiation but if it doesn't work, he should not feel bad about it.

Ask the Federal government that is paying Youth Corpers N35,000 per month such a question.

The truth is that the people who commented on this thread and their parents (obviously 60% of you still live with your parents) will not pay their house help, gateman or nanny up to N25,000

If you had money, you won't go for the job.
Bosses are out to maximise profit.
If you are a boss, you too will shortpay workers to keep your business afloat. The person that wants to go should wise up and go. Another person will rush and take same job with even less pay.
