FamilyRe: Help Me With Budgeting.... My 400k Salary No Longer Takes Me Home. by LandMann: 9:39pm On May 31, 2023
Essenza01:
I really don't know anymore, i just did my budget for the month and i am scared, i have cut from everywhere possible and i fear for my self.. i dont have a GF, Wife, Children.. my salary is N400,000 and i have added side businesses and one or two's to even survive.. but with this fuel increase, what else is left... zero savings..

- Rent - N108,333/mth (1,300,000/12)
- Fuel for car - N180,000 (36k for 5-6days)
- Auto maintenance - N30,000/mth (service/repair)
- Fuel for generator - N50,000/mth (20ltr/wk)
- Feeding - N62,000 - (N2,000/day)
- Health miscellenous - N5,000/mth
- Dstv - N4,500/mth
- Data - N7,000/mth
- Recharge card - N3,000/mth
- Dry cleaner - N4,000/mth (Starch/iron)
- Hygiene maintenance - N10,000 (body spray/perfume, roll on, soap, cream) etc..
-  Gift to people - N10,000/mth
-  Family House contribution - N20,000/mth
- Eko electric - N10,000/mth
- repairs and maintenance - N12,000/mth
- Clothing, footwear etc - N10,000/mth
- Outings, restaurant, sit outs and provisions - N30,000/mth

Total = N556,500...

My rent is average rent for where i stay, its a two bed flat, i use the other room for home office..

Feeding is N2,000/day.. its not anything out of the ordinary.. tried cooking and spent more with time wasting.

Fuel for car is at the new rate of N500/ltr, my car is a 70ltr car tank..

Auto maintenance is basic brake pads, shocks, service 2mths, tire guage, police pr, tire purchase if any, minor touch ups etc... nothing major.

Fuel for generator is 20ltr/day (2hrs or less daily)

I need help.... how are you people doing it, what am i doing wrong? The rat race is killing me..
Some people earn 45k monthly and they still survive... I don't know how you'll be spending 180k for monthly fuel when you're not doing uber or bolt business and then 108k for monthly rent...shey the apartment extends your lifespan anything you're inside it?



You're definitely not sewing your coat according to your size...

My advice is that you should go and look for an apartment that is not more than 250-400k per year...even if it's far from your office... It will justify some of the fuel consumption...

Secondly, use savings from above to install 1kva solar power system for your lights, TV and laptop only... It will stop the 50k monthly fuel consumption and you'll stop disturbing yourself and others with generator noise...

If your driving around is not yielding times 2 of the amount spent on such journeys then cut off unnecessary driving and visitation and hangout... If you die, two weeks you'll be forgotten... even if you're the biggest clubber and baller in town... Learn to use public transportation...

Learn to cook simple foods and stop eating out for your health sake unless you want to die quick or catch cancer from consuming too much fast foods.

Do the above and you'll soon start saving 200k to 250k or more monthly for that next house project or course to upgrade yourself

RomanceRe: Advice Needed.........should I Call Her Mum Or Lock Up. by LandMann: 12:38pm On May 21, 2023
There's no point telling her parents what she did to your mum and how you want to pay her back now by charging her own parents for your service. You'd look stupid and vengeful.

Lock up... Insist on getting paid for your service at a fair price. If they go and patronise somebody else, just know that the relationship has ended. Start looking for someone else that can work with you.

If you mumu follow that girl, you'll suffer in old age

RomanceRe: My Girlfriend Want Me To Place Her On Weekly Salary by LandMann: 12:10pm On May 10, 2023
Ikpeabujo:
Some girls get mind sha.
I have to bring this issue here because I need to hear more people opinion.
We having been dating for three years now and our relationship is basically a long distance as we are not even close but we communicate more.
As the first son she knew that I always carry my family matter for head, and I always make sure that I do my best for my family financially but the issue is that she is always comparing my spending on my family and the little I was able to do for her.
This year after purchasing a bus for my brother for transportation and informed her about it and honestly from her response I know that she is not happy.
By April ending this year she demanded that she need 50k because she wanted to travel and meet her family at Lagos and I told that I will give her the money next month been this May but something comes up and I was unable to fulfill the promise.
Ever since than I have received all kind of words from her.
In her words. “ if it’s your family you will have rush and send the money to them”
So last night she made a suggestion that if I don’t want her to be disturbing me about anything that I should place her on weekly salary.
Note: the girl in question is working for her sister’s husband and she is getting paid but because I have already made it known to her family that we are getting married she now assumes that I’m her responsibility and this worries me so much.
I’m honestly thinking of ending everything right now and I hope that I’m doing the right thing
Your problem is you talk too much... You probably brag and showoff a lot as well... You'll die if you don't let the world know that you're worth millions and you've give your family members millions...

This is the beginning and end of your problem.

Dump the current girl and look for someone else to date for three years while showing off your stupendous wealth... If she turns greedy, dump her and repeat.

Hope you're not from southeast

Nice2023:
U are agent of darkness.

I live and work in the north,I talk based on the situation on ground. Calling for what would enhance the people is what I stand for.

Has religion not divided u people enough...it is talk like this that makes people like u mental stucked to the old ways.

I have never seen a developing nation in Africa who spends money sending his people for pilgrimage but education,scientific invention. The number of people sent for pilgrimage in one year can feed and enhance the education of the poor in the entire North.

U guys have been praying for the past centuries yet,u are still the most wicked nation on earth. With human development index at a horrible figure even with the essential mineral resources in the nation.

Well,for me I still stand by what I said earlier on,I like good things and I can say it once more,that the only region capable of calling their governors to order are the people of the south east region.

Speaking the truth do not kill.
If you are not a goat and if you don't reason like a goat, how's your submission related to what the op asked?

Why not take a look at the first rule on Nairaland? Don't derail threads by posting off topic?

You work in the north but you hide behind your useless phone keyboard to disparage their lifestyle and choices. Are you not a foolish coward for doing that?

I am certain you did not graduate with a good grade from school, if you graduated at all... Because you can't be intelligent and not understand that only foolish people post off topic...

Imagine someone doing a research on the issue the op posted only to see your dumb submissions trying to stir up division again...

How come your useless state governor couldn't provide or ensure an enabling environment for you to find a job but you got one in the north that you hate and you hide behind your keyboard to disparage them?

If you are such an advocate for good governance why not go to mosques and market places in the north where you reside to read out these your foolish outbursts and see if you'll make it home in one piece?

People like you are irritating

Below is what I know and it also implies that u don't know what goes on in ur region and state in the north yet u claim to know.
You must be an agent of division and hatred... Why not stick to the topic instead of trying to fuel another round of ethnic division and hatred?

If you're not in Anambra and you can't comment on the topic then shut up and learn.

Tell us your state and let's see how well your governor is doing instead of generalising bullshit about other regions.

I'm certain you're as rotten and corrupt as any public official in Nigeria. If it's a lie then tell us your name and place of work let's investigate you.

FamilyRe: My Dad Insists That My Fiancée Must Take Fertility Test Before Marriage by LandMann: 9:09am On May 03, 2023
beekind:
I am a 38 year old Nigerian American citizen dating a 26 year old Nigeria girl.
I grew up in Nigeria but travelled out to the USA when I was 25 years old, I am a citizen now and doing really well for myself.
I met a beautiful and godly Nigerian girl on facebook and we have been dating for some months now we are now thinking of marriage, she is in Nigeria while I am in the USA.

Some weeks ago my dad asked me to do some tests and send to him, (He is a medical doctor), I did them, turns out to be fertility tests and all was perfect.
I just told him about my fiance and my plans to get married in some months time and he said she has to do fertility test before he can agree to the marriage.

This was very shocking for me as he insisted that it is his position, I haven't told my fiance cos I dont know how to and my fiance is scheduled to pay my parents a visit for the first time in Port Harcourt in 2 weeks time.
My fiance is from Delta but lives in Portharcout as my parents while we are from Port harcourt.

My dad has said if I cannot tell her that he will, what do you guys think ?

Honest advise please and admin kindly push to front page for wider advise.

Thanks.
No go foolishly tell the girl it's what your father wants o... Unless you're a stupid simp.

Have a conversation with the girl and tell her that now that you guys are planning to get married that you both need to do FULL MEDICAL CHECKUP.

Genotypes, blood groups, STDs and STIs, and Fertility tests are just some of the medical checks that are included in a FULL MEDICAL CHECKUP for intending couples.

The only issue is that you'll need to do your own test again in same hospital she'll be doing hers...a hospital different from where you did the first.

Be ready to provide the funds for the medical tests and be ready to go together for it.

You'll even be told about these things if you did marriage counseling before marriage.

Finally, don't bring your father's discussion on the subject matter with you to your girlfriend's ear... Only an extremely foolish son would do that... Doing so will strain the relationship between your girlfriend/wife and your father till your father dies...

And I wonder why you can't find a wife in your vicinity than dating someone who is over 10000 kilometers from where you are... Abroad boyfriend crews... I reserve my comment

FamilyRe: My Wife Burnt My Boxers Because I Didn't Give Her 30k by LandMann: 3:56pm On May 02, 2023
NotAMan:
This marriage is shaking and life-threatening at the same time.

The last employed job I had was in a private firm which I got affected by downsizing.

Pending when I will land a good job, these days, I do house and property agent. I also do menial jobs sometimes just to eck a living. Sometimes it takes long before I seal a deal. The last money I made was just something above 50k which I handed over 80% of the money to her for family upkeep and other expenses. She's pregnant with our first child and misbehave a lot.

And now her mother is sick and she wants to travel and as I don't have the 30k to give to her, only to come back yesterday and saw my boxers burnt in anger. Over 10 boxers? And she's even telling me this is just to warn me against the future and I'm becoming very afraid of her. If I have the money, would I want her not to travel to see her sick mother when i know health issue is a matter of life and death?

Also, she's teaching in a private school and complaining of the school owing salary.

This woman is making me shed tears and becoming afraid of her at the same time. I have never beaten, talk bad or hurt her in anyway and she shouldn't push me.

Now that she has burnt my boxers, who knows what next? I am even afraid of my life.

What should I do?
Stop being a weak and foolish man... Count ten of her pants and burn them. And warn her never to act stupid in your house again otherwise you'll send her packing irrespective of the pregnancy

cool



I believe you are over 40 or close to 40

For your cardio vascular health you need to take things more easy and with more patience

She is the one who has trust issues...

She doesn't trust you can handle her truth and she keeps hiding many things from you because you are extremely judgemental of her


Now analyze your own emotions by answering this questions

1: why are you angry
2: why are you happy
3: why are you anxious
4: why are you stressed out
5: why are you disappointed


.
Terrible people are just terrible people. You don't make excuses for them unless you are equally as terrible as them.

The op's wife is a terrible human being and you're worse for trying to spin it around and blame the man.

Truth is the foundation of trust. Lies destroy trust and creates acrimony in relationships.

The op's wife is a perpetual liar and she may destroy the op if care is not taken.

My advice to you twang414 is that you should start taking careful and defensive measures to protect yourself and your children.

Your wife has found a demonic friend who'll continue to push and encourage her to be deviant and subtly abusive towards you. They know that UK system will protect them no matter their atrocity.

I won't be surprised if your wife was away for three days to suck dïcks for pounds.
RomanceRe: She Finally Got Pregnant What Should I Do by LandMann: 8:40am On Apr 30, 2023
Maybe she is playing games and wants to trap you.

Ask her how old is the pregnancy. Tell her you'd like to first confirm if her claim is true... Take her to an ultrasound centre chosen by you and pay to get her checked for pregnancy...make sure you collect the result yourself and make sure it's not somewhere she knows or has influence.

If the pregnancy is still early, i.e less than 6 weeks, tell her you'd both go for ultrasound check in six weeks to be sure... tell her that anything she does before you confirm is her responsibility and on her head...

Also, do the maths and be sure that there's possiblity the pregnancy, if real, is yours.

If she agrees and you finally go for the checkup, if the test is positive, once you both leave the place, tell her to give you her phone... Make up any excuse like u want to call someone or save number... Once the phone is with you, start a conversation about trust, loyalty and infidelity... Tell her you don't trust her because of her recent actions and tell her you want to go through her phone...if she doesn't resist, search through the phone thoroughly for any sign that she's sleeping with someone else so that you don't go and take responsibility for another man's pregnancy...

If she resist checking her phone, that's a red flag... Draw your own conclusion.

If you find out any sign she's been fúckin someone else, disengage and tell her to go think properly about who the father is

If you find no evidence of infidelity, tell her you'd take responsibility for the pregnancy and her care only... And make sure you do... Tell her you can't marry her the way she is now but you believe there's possiblity of marrying her if she becomes a better or suitable person in future...

If she becomes better after 10 years, marry her... If not, draw your own conclusion.

You can also advice yourself if all above sound nonsensical

Seems you have never been to the north before, you need to take time and go see, food like paradise, don't you know many food thrive with moderate rain and well drained soil, whereas thick rain forest and mud discourage crop from thriving, reason why there is little food in the south east, go and see rice growing by the road side in Yola, water melon as big as a baby in Kano, grains everywhere all over the north and huge yam, domestic animals thriving due to moderate rain, cheap chicken and eggs. Generally food production reduce as you come down from the north to the southern part of Nigeria.
The soil, rainfall and general environment in south encourages more food production in the south compared the north. A pointer is the herdsmen you see migrating and moving their cattles from the north down to the south.

Food production, farming is poor in the south because southern youths are generally too lazy to farm... Their education has given them a very lazy mentality to depend on white-collar jobs for survival.
