FamilyRe: Do I Build A Small House Now Or Keep Saving? by Erums(m): 9:13pm On Aug 23, 2021

I hope you get to read this.

29, single, a graduate, prudent, smart, with over 11m in savings.

Bruv, I envy you and would do this if I were you.

Start the Australian or Canadian PR program now that age is still on your side. Thankfully, money won't be an issue as you have the financial power to process it. Give or take, you will need 4 to 4.5m for the entire process including PoF.

And you don't have to pay anyone to do it for you, there's enough DIY resources here on Nairaland to start with.

By the time you get there, it becomes easier for you to do your Masters at a far cheaper cost and in a good school because of your PR status. And of cos, more investment and career opportunities are laid bare to you simply because you'd be more exposed, live and work legally in a country that works.

From the remaining money, retain your business capital. You can also get a plot of land in a good location. Perfect the C of O and continue with your hustling. When you start making more over there, you can come back to build your house.

I wish someone pointed me to this when I was your age. Now, I am in my late 30s, self-employed, newly married, a landlord in Lagos but guess what, I have started with the PR route.

Nothing is certain here in Nigeria. The value of your 11m now is not the same about this time last year and I doubt if it would get better by December.

So make a move now. I wish you the very best.
Can I jion u on this route?

Semi luxurious means very good quality fittings, aluminium roofing, parapet, high quality Nigerian tiles, good plastering and good quality sanitary wares.

covid2019:
I am in a dilemma worsened by this covid19.

I am a graduate male of 29 residing in the East. I still squat with a friend, not because I don't have money for house rent. But principally because I have been unable to figure out what I want to do with my life, hence renting a house feels like a commitment that might get me stuck.

I always feel I might move anytime soon-- to either another state or abroad for masters or just practice of my profession. Note that I didn't study a STEM course.

All these while squatting, I have been saving via my proceeds from hustles.

In the wake of this COVID19, I checked all my banks and found out that money I have in my account has lost so much value given the dollar rate.

I have 11.4 million, inclusive of my working capital, plus a rickety car valued at 350k. Each time, I need just 3-5m as working capital.

It seems that trying to save more is false economy and might be counter productive.

NOW, I AM CONSIDERING buying a plot of land and erecting a small house even if it's 3 rooms. This, I think will serve as investment that will keep appreciating and also serve as residence.

Or just open a domiciliary account to hedge against naira fall and continue saving.
What do you think please?
I am in the same delima but I have a wife and a 3month kid... What to do i do.. Should I just build for thier comfort... Maybe one rental attached and chill... Pls advice

I suggest you do a semi luxurious finish for the unit your family will stay in, then do a basic finish for the unit you want to rent. But if your area is a rich neighborhood where renters can pay more, then it makes sense to upgrade the finish of the rental unit to a semi luxurious finish.
What are the pointers to a semi luxurious finish...
Also it's not a rich neighborhood.. Just basic pple having family homes especially... I actually decided to build because inflation is depreciating money saved... What do u think sir

BUILDING A HOUSE WITH AN INTENTION TO RENT

The conditions are almost same as above, because the space they need is as a result of the age and stage of their lives. But there is a point to note. If you are developing a house to rent, you have to make a choice of your finish standard. There are at least 3 finish standard in houses for rent. They are the;

1. Basic finish
2. Standard finish
3. Semi luxurious finish
4. Full luxurious finish

I will explain all of them in details later today, going to sites now.
I am building a 3/2 bedroom semi detached bungalow... Pls what type of finishing do u recommend. As my family would stay in the 3bedrrom and rent the two bed.. Thanks

Nice one.... Since I discovered Piggyvest in 2018, saving has been a critical part of me.

They make it seamless and once a target is met, I convert to dollar asap still on the app to avoid inflation eating it up. One needs to save to invest.

RomanceRe: Am I Not In A Toxic Relationship Like This? by Erums(m): 3:24pm On Jul 09, 2021
ultiabaz36:
Good day my people, please your advise is needed. I am in my 30s and I came into this relationship this year January. I like and I love this babe so much but she’s always demanding financially despite being a working class and I am only surviving on 45k job here in lagos. I have target and ambition for my life and everything is placed on this my job. So, I have a proportion of my income to be saved for this my ambition but since I met this girl, I never have anything called savings again while I still go on borrowing to satisfy her needs.

The most painful part of it all is that anytime she asks of anything and I’m not capable of what she asked for, she will first block me on Whatsapp and drop a breakup message. I will be the one to call and persuade her and when she feels like to unblock me she will do that.

But now, she’s asking for salah cloth and I don’t have the amount she’s asking for. I told her I don’t have the money for now while I told her that I don’t know what tomorrow will say and as soon as I said this, she dropped the breakup message as usual and block me on WhatsApp.

Please Advise me on what to do as this is getting on my nerves.
You are foolish and a disgrace of a man.... That's all I can say
