It's obvious that you are spending that much because you live in London.

Come to Greater Manchester and you will be able to get a 3 bedroom house for less than £600
Monthly Electricity and Gas is £67 for a family of 3 with a toddler (Why do you pay that high for electricity?)
Monthly Megarider for buses less than £60 (though I drive)
Council tax - £115
Sky (Internet and TV) - £30
Groceries for my family - Average of £400 per month (How come you are spending the same amount for a family of 3)
Who rents fridge, microwave etc? Are you sure you are in the UK?
What are you dry-cleaning as a student?

Wonder why people stay in London when you can stay in Manchy and be earning much more than you are earning in London.

How will I commute from Manchester to attend KCL everyday? Chairman you don fall my hand ooo

I don't know if i should believe you.

You don't cook but at the same time you buy grocery? How exactly do you rent fridge, microwave and washing machine the UK?

You're still carrying this fridge matter for head like gala bah Wetin be your own, oga park well jor. And for the LAST time, why should I buy these stuff when it's cheaper to rent? I'm leaving here by August, 2018.

why should you when Efcc hasn't caught them yet Now you want to ball like your Zimbabwean pal abi? How exactly did your Zimbabwean pall aquire his wealth? I'm sure it's not by balling but working hard for his money. Even if he got it through illicit activities, he needs a brain and discipline to maintain that wealth. All you talk about is balling and living big, this is not what life is all about. If you go that school finish for UK come back with this same brain you won't even make it in Nigeria without your parents assisting you. Because you can't even steal money the way they do, it's not something you learn by balling but by streets.

He's into real estate, his office na Morningside he dey, if you know that side well. He is a ZA citizen but born in Zim. All legit business. Continue "suffering & smiling" in that your overated UK. Even onyibo British people sef are packing out and emigrating even to South Africa talkless an ordinary fifth class resident like yourself.

I still don't think you live in London, and if you do it's obvious you don't have the discipline to live there. London is not a place for kids with bad spending habits. You can't live in any part of Europe like this, from your post it's obvious you come from a rich home and your stay there is sponsored by your parents. Leave Yankee for hustlers and come back for your parents to connect you for a good job. They wish you can stay there and hustle your way but you can't. Please come back, this topic is for people like you.

You're right. By August, 2018 i'll be out of here like a flash. Why should I hustle and for what? My Zimbabwean pal has his own real estate business in Jo'burg. Nigga ballin like crazy and he's only 30. I haven't come across anybody in UK who lives the life he lives, maybe those onyibo landed gentry from Hertfordshire, Kent, Surrey etc, those ones whose ancestors made money from the slaves, opium and colonies.

Abeg go sit down joor, nothing you can tell me about UK. The only guys who can manage here are those who had no prospects in Africa, so this place is like heaven to them. And of course those into illegal activities (welfare, credit card fraud, drugs ,etc)

If you have a good job or business which you leave to come here, then you're insane.

erico2k2:
U nor get life thats what Im trying to say, quit trying to convince us you live in the Uk when you live in ghana dey do yahoo yahoo.
PS, I cant be your maga

Mugu, there's no pride in living in the UK or US, so I wouldn't need to lie or brag about that. UK is a godforsaken country, but atleast they can market themselves very well to trap mumus like you to go there and provide cheap labour for them and stupid politicians to hide their loot.

As soon as my programme completes I will be on the first plane out of here.

Nigerians abroad, I advice you to manage your money and invest very well back home or in any other African country for that matter. Just have something to fall back on for the sake of your future. The kind of rat race life people live abroad is not good at all.

erico2k2:
your pad came with a cooker,U dont even know how ridiculous you now sound, if I want to lease my house out unfurnished the last thin you will find is a cooker cos it cost money to install and dismantle .keep deceiving yourself,

Maga, can you get out of my mentions. You live your "hustling" life and let me live mine abeg. Wetin consign you with my lifestyle?

justwise:
Speechless, rented a room in the UK without fridge, microwave and washing machine already there?

£400 on shopping alone? You need to be flogged

My pad came with only a cooker fitted in and I don't cook anyways. I had to rent or buy the rest of the equipment. Takeaway every night tends to raise the bills, not to mention grocery shopping and warm clothes as well. You know Richmond na. Anyway sha, you are implying that for one to live in the UK you must lower your standards, abi? Isn't that proving the OPs point?

This UK is hell on earth. After my masters I'll go back the next day after graduation. I'd rather move to saner African countries like Namibia, Botswana, South Africa, etc than stay in Onyiboland ever again.

erico2k2:
will u keep kwiet

Shut your gob, Mr. "millionare" You must be one of those frustrated boys I see in the streets of Peckham where i go for my weekly barb.

See all your expenses and you still asking him if it's not the same UK you stay in? You are living a big man life in Yankee that is why you have no savings.

My friend stays in UK alone his rent is £500
His home has a mini fridge and where the hell do you rent a fridge, microwave etc?
What exactly are you shopping for £400 monthly? Didn't you see charity shops to buy cheap clothes for £2-£10?Don't you cook your food?
You spend £400 on shopping but don't want to buy a fridge and microwave that will save you money in the long run.

I don't think you live in the UK and if you do, this is a typical example of a broke Nigerian in Yankee. Go there and be forming big boy, don't save money and send here for investments.

I'm in London studying for a master's degree for a year. I'll be out of here by next August, 2018. Why on earth do I need to buy all those things for? Plus the trouble of shipping them back home once i'm done (who will buy them in UK?) It's cheaper to rent them, common sense!!

Your friend is lying to you. When people are paying £600 for room in a shared flat in Stratford? Abeg which kain place in London will you pay £500 and live alone? Not even Peckham sef.

Abeg, tell it to someone else.

I bought a brand new range rover Autobiography in 2012 worth £105k and my house is in N8,U seriously think I earn £1600, then your case is beyond repair.You are now bitter cos you have been found out

Are you not the one who wrote,

It's obvious the person who posted this tthread has never traveled. When I finished university, I search for job for 7 good years and nothing came up. I traveled to UK with the help of a friend who did visa for me whom I promised to pay once I find something doing. I arrived UK and after two months I got a menial job that pays me 1600$ a month. Now these are my expenses:
House rent per month 350$
Phone subscription for data 21$ unlimited
Food and beverage 150$
Bus ticket for one month to work 100$
After all other expenses I do save up to 800$ every month. Some months I do save 1000$
So please let be realistic about our analysis.

Oga, I told you, you must be consistent with your lies.

erico2k2:
Oga stop lying, where in London do they call zone 6?
people like you are the ones the OP is referring to
London zone 6 my azzz

Mumu, I'm in Richmond for your information.

erico2k2:
Stop talking rubbish, you have no clue.I was doing my masters back in 2000
ALl what you said up there r BS and you know it, who rents fridge,dish washer, washing machines among us Nigerians living in the Uk, when fridges are less than £150 to buy? so you rent a room and hire all these right? or you think you speaking to bunch of idiots on here
There is no point claiming U live in the Uk wen you are in Ghana

So you did your master's in 2000 and yet you're doing manual work for £1,600 bah? Atleast be consisent with your lies fvcktard.

Mr. man which UK? Is it not the same one that I'am staying?

Rent-£ 850 pcm
Internet (BT)-£30
Phone (EE) -£15
Tube (Oyster)-£161.84 monthly.
Renting fridge, microwave, washing machine & drier-£40
Utilities (SSE)-£150
Shopping-£400
Drycleaning-£30

That's a total of £1700 (almost 800,000 Naira!) And that's a very modest student lifestyle ooo, assuming you stay locked up in your crib with no enjoyment whatsoever.

To be honest, people are just managing in this fcukd up place.

Btruth:
When you tell people with good jobs or good business here in Nigeria, and you still see them chasing after US or Shenge visa just to go and live and work there, they will see you as enemy of progress.

If you are doing well here in Nigeria. Those countries are only good for a visit and shopping.

Quote me.

Tell them bros. A word is enough for the wise. Can't wait to finish my masters and get the hell out of fcking UK.

wonlasewonimi:
The way exceptionally rich people live in Nigeria is the way ordinary low income people live in the US.

Lies from the pit of hell.

So, those in the inner city housing projects (aka ghetto) and those in trailer parks and tent cities are living better than middle class Nigerians? abeg park well joor

You can just imagine that.

ddippset:
The biggest problem of this country today is that we have a certain political party who call themselves the PDP. They had promised to be in power for 60 years. They rigged 1999, they rigged 2003, they rigged 2007, they rigged 2011. Then they had a weak president in 2015 who was afraid to rig. Their body language now is to make the country ungovernable for the APC. But sorry to burst your bubble, the APC is not gej. By hook or by crook they will win 2019, 2023, 2027 and 2031. PDP should be ready to play opposition till 2035 at least.

Trash!

Is the Financial Times now PDP? If you've nothing important to say shut up abeg
