I earn 70k monthly to take care of myself, a wife and a child. I try to save 20k monthly for house rent payment, you won't believe the rest is no longer enough to spend for a month. Once we Buhari took us to Next Level, every price of goods went along and they seems to be climbing sky now yet salary remains constant. We are not living we are just surviving for how long? Hopefully there is a light at the end of a long dark tunnel,but first Baba has to leave Aso Rock

i cant really say, it depends on the city since COL varies widely.

someone earning $30k before tax could SURVIVE in missisippi or florida but it will be suicidal to live in NYC or washington with such amount.
funny a thing, i was thinking of relocating to Austin
Austin TX?

Austin as in, Austin Texas I guess, lol. Just like Ibadan - Oyo. Austin being the Capital of Texas just like Ibadan being the capital of Oyo.

Houston still under Texas but a different place entirely like Iseyin still in Oyo. Houston is bigger I think, must be the reason is more known to lots of people. I don't even know if my explanation is making sense grin grin grin

I earn just 70k per month, brethren, the money is not enough for me and my family. Sometimes, I live on debt before the end of the month. Recently my wife started doing something. God has been faithful to us.
Salary job nowadays is like serving in jail.

As a sport trader, and other offline businesses, I hardly keep track of my income and expenses...

But it varies in months...

As far as profit keeps coming and the account growing monthly then it a move in the right direction...
