By the looks of it I might have an intelligent conversation with you. For you were civil in your reply though with a sprinkle of jab. If you have proof that he doesn't earn that amount, please post. After all we are here to learn

I.posted it earlier.

The magnitude of the sum total of the industry Flamini invested in is about 30 odd Billion dollars.

He himself has said he is nowhere as successful as he is being touted to be.

He has found a way to market a series of products which should replace destructive ingredients found in hydrocarbons used in shampoos, soaps, dye, etc.

His company managed to raise 15 million dollars from a Venture Capital just 2 years ago.

I'm sure you aren't expecting the billionaire, Flamini to be seeking a mere 15 million Dollars from a VC.

He is not a billionaire.

Hahaha.

There's dignity in labour.

Bro, don't ever suggest this low paying job leaves one with any significant disposable income, if any.

It is a a hand-to-mouth job, period.

Stop the nonsense.

You people should stop this nonsense.

We need to stop attributing every BAD BEHAVIOR to mental illness. And only board certified and licensed professionals should diagnose mental health issues, not all of us with data and a smartphone.
Dude can be plain wicked. Dude might have been intentionally wicked to the child maybe to be with another lady who doesn’t want him + child. All that is about his behavior.

We can make some observations without being certified.

Since 2007?

Dey play, majority earned below $50k per annum. Her income is way above minimum wage in almost all states in USA.

You live in the States?

If yes, what could you do with 50k?

IbeOkehie:
Pride Dude I don't work at Amazon. I don't work a lower wage job but I've been there decades ago.

Even the $50K per year will give a lifestyle VERY FEW can afford in Nigeria...car, apartment with standard amenities, 24hr electricity, unlimited internet for a set fee and ability to remit $200 = ₦350K per month to Nigeria.

What percentage of Nigerians own a private car?

What percentage of Nigerian adults, workers or business owners, earn ₦350K per month? It's not up to 1%, that's the data.

Good Luck to Nigeria

I know your aim is to denigrate Nigeria whilst uplifting yourself at the same time.

Anybody that knows anything about money knows 50k is just about making it to the end of the month.

Daily Trust is Atiku's trumpet.

They fish for bad news.

IbeOkehie:
It's not flex. It's reality. Yes, half of all FAMILIES in the USA earn a TOTAL INCOME that is LESS THAN $70K per year. That includes households where TWO spouses are working. So you're contending that a single person earning $50K is living "hand to mouth". Well, that condition has to be defined. For sure that person eats well and drives a car. Hand to mouth indeed.

I started out as a cook earning $4/hr and I lived with a roommate in a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment in this same Raleigh NC. Back then the rent was $350 per month, today it's about $1300 and a cook now earns $12/hr.

Those are real figures, you can believe it or not.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Bro, we know the truth.

You know the truth but your pride won't let you admit it.

An amazon packer, on 24/hr is earning poor, and barely makes ends meet.

How this is even a debate sags a lot about you.

How come, the 24 Billion?

IbeOkehie:
Your figures are not realistic at all. I live in the USA. This is my real name. I'm here to educate people about REALITY.

I'll just give you a bit of info to set things aright. By IRS data, the median HOUSEHOLD income in the USA is about $70K per year. Fully 40% of all households in the USA pay ZERO federal income tax. Think about that. Hopefully you can adjust your outlook on what it means to earn $23/hr.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

Hope you aren't counting on the covid effevt to make this claim.

By the way, Median means middle.

An individual earning $52k annually is living from hand to mouth.

You can try to slice it or dice it anyway you want, but you know it's true.

In North Carolina, your net pay would be 3461 per month.

I don't know why you want to make 50k feel like a flex when it clearly isn't.

IbeOkehie:
Raleigh NC...one of the fastest growing cities or metros in the USA.

Dude I don't tell lies. Stuff like this is easy to check. Go to PRIVATE....not corporate...landlords around the MiniCity area or East Raleigh. It's simply NOT that bad for someone making $23/hr. The median HOUSEHOLD income in the USA is around $35/hr for goodness sake.

Good Luck to Nigerians.

I see.

So it's private, meaning, sort of hoping on luck.

Remember, you said you could get a 2 bedroom town house for 1200.

You know that's not true, at all.

The player himself has debunked it.

He says the entire industry in which he invested, is worth a global 35 billion.

He says he only owns a fraction of a company which only managed to raise 15 million Euros from Venture Capitalists and have only 50 workers .

How the hell do you think the company is worth billions, let alone Flamini.

By the way, I'm a Gooner.

purplekayc:
True

The news is fake.

Dawn91:
Typical Yoruba. Anyone more successful; who isn't Yoruba is fake news right?

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-12885411/Arsenal-star-multi-billion-pound-company-Cristiano-Ronaldo.html

The problem with most of you is that you don't seek information.

In a statement confirming Flamini's appointment, the company said it had raised €15m euros (£12.8m) in a funding round led by the venture capital firm Sofinnova Partners. The company, headquartered in the Netherlands but with views to expand in the United States, currently employs 50 people but that number is expected to increase.

He first dey hold ground.

Nairaland used to display gory images willy nilly.

NothingDoMe:
How much does a registered nurse get paid an hour in the US? Do your research and humbly edit your comment.

The average registered nurse earns 44 dollars per hour. Almost twice the Amazon worker.

In New York, California, Nurses earn about 52 dollars per hour.

Clear difference, if you asked me.

yesloaded:
I lives in Nigeria but I have more than 10 people who lives outside the country

You can earn $10k per month still unable to save 100dolls at the end of the month

Don't live outside your earnings

In other words, you've never lived it.

Let those who have experienced it teach you.

43Ronin:
Bro you are right but your analysis is wrong. At $23 you get close to $3400 gross not net. Lol. Let us do d maths. Take taxes from d $23 you probably have $18 net per hour multiply that by 8 hours daily =144 × 5 days a week thats $720. Biweekly = $1,440. Now there is a night premium and even if you add OT, OT is still taxed & belive you can't work 12 hr shifts for a week in Amazon you go die troway . The work is low paying for the type of labor but at least it will settle bills if the person lives modestly. But yea na paycheck to paycheck

You got it bro.

Others are living in fool's paradise.

yesloaded:
I disagree

If she work 7hrs per day and 20days per month that's over $3k per month

Let's say $2k to groceries, house rent and taxes thats should leave her with $1k savings per month

OK sir.

Have you ever lived it?

Or you are just assuming?

joebeckz:
That's how you know that person knows little about life abroad.
I laugh when I see him comment.

That's way above minimum wage in lots of Canadian provinces.

Tell am Jor

I'm telling you that is just manageable.

Some are saying she should share a flat with others.

Doesn't that tell a story on its own?

walozanga:
Making approximately 400k naira in 12 hour is a low paying job? Dey play

What do you know?

yemmit90:
$23.95 per hour is not a not paying job, stop saying what you don't know.

I said what I said.

It's not a high paying job.

That's about 52k a year.

That's 3410 per month net.


Rent 1.3k

Bus - not likely.

Not reliable. Distance is far. Not 24/7 in most districts.

She'll need a car.

Hoopty 4k.

It would breakdown frequently.
