A new baby after the shege of Buharihuh? shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked shocked

Talk to your wife. She needs to go out and get a job so she can begin to contribute to the family finances immediately. The shege banza of Tinubu remains in loading.... mode and you do not know what awaits you all in Nigeria in this new year. All indices point to more bad news from inside and outside of Nigeria. So you should both be prepared. 🤔
Well, I hope your advice is noted but if they do not have a financial plan at the least, then all income is down the drain.

You don't seem to understand what is in fact happening in the country. The cost of living is rising and will continue to throughout the new year. Unless your salary equally to keep up, how do you think you can keep to this 3-4-3 system of yours? undecided
Should we rather throw our hands up in the air and give up hope?
.. I admit that things are utterly bad but to stop hoping is to accept imminent death. undecided
The young man was asking for some financial advice so, I find it quite uncharitable when you mutter that I don't seem to understand what's happening. I'm in the rot too and where are you, by the way?

FamilyRe: Not Your Money But Your Honest Advice by Day169:
Jerchance:
Hello Nairaland!
I'm reaching out for your honest advice:
Today, I woke up feeling overwhelmed by the uncertainties of life as a father,with a 9-5 job that doesn't pay much. I've struggled to make ends meet. I have no savings to fall back on, and the pressure is mounting now that I'm married with a new baby. My salary of 300k is quickly depleted by responsibilities and debt.

Could you offer some guidance on how to improve my financial situation? What skills can I learn or what steps can I take to increase my earnings, considering I don't have any savings to rely on?

Thanks!!!!
I like to think of my finances as a formation in a football game, and I'm an advocate of the 3-4-3 system (since you have a child), my 'defence' is rent and school fees (30% of salary), 'midfield' is feeding and bills (40% of salary), and attack will comprise savings, investment and pocket money (30%). You can tinker with the formation to suit your purpose, but do the best you can to stick to the plan.
After all, all stress and no spice can quickly kill a man! undecided

BusinessRe: MTN Pays N200bn Monthly In VAT — Tax Committee by Day169: 8:59am On Dec 18, 2024

CrimeRe: Nigerians Paid N2.23trn Ransom To Kidnappers In 12 Months – NBS by Day169: 9:54pm On Dec 17, 2024
It's arguably the most lucrative venture in the country right now. That's more than what conglomerates like the big banks and other multinational companies made. It's even more than what most states budgeted for 2025. Meanwhile they had minimal losses such as arrests and deaths from gun duels with security agencies.
That's why more people are enlisting in the trade. undecided

Foreign AffairsRe: Damascus Has Fallen: Syrian Rebels Breach Assad Defenses To Enter Capital. by Day169:
I wonder how the "butterfly effect" plays out here.
1. Russia's invasion of Ukraine may have used up supplies used to prop up the Assad government.
2. Consequently, Turkey would've taken the initiative to further embolden the rebels.
3. The Oct 7 massacre in Southern Israel by Hamas and the resultant onslaught by the IDF to eliminate Hamas, Hezbollah, and allied resistance in Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria.
4. Military hardware destined for Hezbollah, from Iran, may've been taken over by rebels in Syria as a result of Israels blockade.
5. The US factor.. either covertly or overtly.
CrimeRe: Police Neutralise Cultist Who Killed Rivers Couple, Four Cops by Day169: 7:10am On Dec 07, 2024
Why is it that there are no footages or pictures when the Nigerian armed forces claim to have neutralised dozens and scores of bandits and terrorists (.. perhaps with only pictures of NAF jets , or soldiers in training) but go to town with gory pictures a bullet ridden body of a single cultist being "neutralised"?
.. I think it speaks volumes of our state of affairs. undecided

Good news, but the headlines alone are not able to sway the opinions of Nigerians who have little trust in the validity of information that emanate from government.
