Where is your tithe and electricity bill?

Thing of the past.

Sounds good on paper.

Reality is often disappointing, though.

OP u like food see as food budget plenty

That's cool. Taraba is a good state to serve, even though opportunities are scarce.
I served in Gembu, Mambilla Plateau 19B2. It was one of the most satisfying years of my life

I often wished to visit gembu a couple of times on invitations of a friend from camp, but i never visited, he told me lots of stories about its terrain. Made me a little jealous.
I guess the long hours drive of about 8 hours from Jalingo discouraged me

For those coming from a poor background or anyone that's learnt at any point in life how to save money, I under how the OP can survive that way. I can even survive with less, if I have a savings target, and an account I can't touch. Just put away what you want to save after receiving allawee.

You never know that you can survive with little until you are forced to.

And #1500 data is good enough. No Facebook, insta, minimal Twitter. Use MTN special deal @ 1.5G weekly for 300.
If you need to download anything, use MTN pulse night data. 250mb for 25.

Well-done. And may God bless your hustle.

Are you for real, I served in Port, my dear I had to borrow money to come back home. Even in the core northern part were food is for free, my dear that budget is not achievable. How about your toiletr>toiletries, medical bills and other stuff like babe card. I don't believe

Which one is 'babe card'?
This was how you over burden you allowance
One who does not have a girlfriend can spend way less than that..

Recharge card 500 u try

In 2018/2019, With N19800 and 6k stipends I was able to save 12k every month as a corps member serving in a school in Mararraba, Donga LGA of Taraba State.

I never had a girlfriend and I was healthier than I left home.
Imagine I received 30k monthly...

For one month. That’s 500# daily.

Sailor22:

Cash at bank : N158.00
Cash at hand: N0.00
I no know Wetin to do again. This university life shit is so depressing, thank God it’s one year left.

You must be very disciplined, my monthly fixed budget for data alone is 25,500 (twenty five thousand five hundred naira).

Well done.

Ihenzy:

Yeah.
Visited his house which was a stone throw from my lodge during the election era but we never met him.

Yes is possible for 1500 data and call in a month, even me sometime I can only spend about 1200 in a month for both data and call and sometimes 2000 in a month

MANDIPUTIN:

Corper,
You did not budget tithe, offering, are u not planning to give to ur provider. Who has the capability to enlarge you?

You go increase that miscellaneous to 14k and saving be 1500 pls

You are lucky you don't pay rent if not that's what you would have been using that savings for.
