Yes, mine is enough. My salary is benchmarked against the USD, so the inflation and weak naira hasn't really impacted me. I really do feel for peeps who can't get by...Sad.

What about the great majority of Nigerians that don't receive any salary or allowances or earn from businesses at all? That's why N-Power had 5 million applicants last year so if your salary isn't enough for you, cut your reckless expenses and manage well because you are even lucky.

Salary below 100,000 will still be a problem. Gas 12.5kg was filled with 9,000
I bought 8200 in agege yesterday.
The last time I refilled in august, it was 6000

No amount of money is ever enough because the more the income, the higher your expenses and the more you'll want to improve your standard of living. All these end up gulping your finances, making your income insufficient at the end of the day. hence the need for a higher income. That is why the rich still hustle despite all they have.

Money is never enough at any level you find yourself.



What do you mean?
I think you're mixing things up here.

I disagree with you on this your view except the part in bold ONLY, and that is because as long as people are alive and active even retired, they will keep hustling not because they are broke or the money they have is not enough to cater for their expenses and that of their unborn generation but to keep making money, which is mainly due to their human nature/greed i.e always wanting more A.K.A Oliver Twist.

Maybe you're making your comment from an average Nigerian worker's perspective and not from a business person, investor, conglomerate etc point of view.

Again, even the worker's/employee's view is not really a general/worldwide issue but a Nigerian or African thing.

There are slot of people that will live comfortable if they choose to stop working and enjoy what they have made but they are still making money.

So, try and view things from different perspectives.

This are the types of topics meant to be in FP. Not all this useless and nonsense posts. Looking at the amount of views in this post shows how people prefer stupid things to important ones

Seriously people just detest what will gain them knowledge. People prefer to be receiving, instead of them to give to receive. That is strive to acquire knowledge. To make money

Late last year I started learning python development. And I know how much I bought those videos, I used in learning.

Op see just leave them, they will understand better by next year. Don't dull yourself, learn something.

YouAreNotAlonE:


grin grin you are the one that feels that way since I started gigs via my LinkedIn, I didn't change my lifestyle.
I still live in my one room apartment no living room, shared kitchen oh. So you see it depends on you. As I mentioned earlier I'm accumulating money to invest in cryptocurrency.

See the way you live your life depends on you, I feel when you are just accumulating wealth. You shouldn't start spending anyhow, that's what makes some people broke
I have the money to rent a more decent apartment, but I still chose to leave in that face me I slap you. I have the money to get a decent second hand car, but I still fly keke, bike and bus. So it ultimately depends on you.

When you are accumulating wealth, save first to invest in more wealth, in order to attain financial freedom.

I AM SORRY TO SAY THIS, MOST NIGERIANS ARE DAFT BUT THINK THEY ARE SMART.

MOST FEEL IT IS UNTIL YOU STEP OUT AND KNOT A TIE OR IT IS BY LEAVING HOME AS EARLY AS 6AM THEN YOU ARE SERIOUS WITH LIFE.

I PITY LOT OF NIGERIANS, WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD BE IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS WITH THAT YOUR GOVT,OFFICE JOB? ASK YOUR BOSSES ARE THEY FINANCIALLY READY IF THE SACK LETTER COMES?

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DO NOT HAVE THAT ENERGY TO CARRY ON, YOU THINK YOUR PENSION WOULD SAVE YOU? YOU HAD BETTER HAVE A RETHINK.

THERE IS NOTHING EVER LIKE NETWORKING. I AM IN MY ROOM RIGHT NOW SIPPING MY COFFEE KNOWING I WAS DAFT TOO WHEN I USE TO SAY I HATED NETWORKING

CONTINUE WITH YOUR HARDSHIP NIGERIANS, WAIT FOR BUHARI OR ATIKU TO FIX YOUR ECONOMY. DONT TAKE YOUR FUTURE SERIOUSLY YOU HEAR.

SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE TURNED BEGGER TODAY BECAUSE THEY FAILED TO TAKE OPPORTUNITIES.

YOUR FUTURE LIES IN YOUR HAND, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE NETWORKING.

I doubt there's any salary that is enough. Anyone with enough salary can correct me.

We need side hustle to complement salaries.
I earn 250k per month! I stay in one room apartment of 76k per yr, I don't have girlfriend, I don't have too much responsibility and I save 200k every month.. I spend 50k for feeding and transportation
