Don't mind them.

People earn 30k too.

How many teachers outside of the big cities (and big schools) earn more than 50k?

Even casual bank staff earn under 50k at some locations.
Even civil servants earn under 50k.

I spend an approximate of 30k weekly, and na manage ooh!
Eggs in place of chicken,
Pap in place of Oats, etc.

Wisdom is profitable to direct
Do average income earners still eat chicken in Nigeria? One thing is that everyone should trim his budget, married or single.

Pls analyse ur expenses. I ve 3 kids and a wife, weekly on a manage level, my wife spends up to 30-40k

Kids Bobo/Biscuits. 5k
Sachet water(2bags). 2.2k
Gen fuel. 2k
Total. 36k -44k.
.
That's a lot for Bobo & biscuits. Around N150k per year.

Kids will always want biscuits & stuffs like that, but you're not helping their long term health by feeding them so much of it.

These things should be occasional treats.

Dude, it depends on what you eat and where you live.

If you're earning 30K, you certainly will not use catfish to cook. Titus brand of Sardines and Exeter brand of Corned Beef will not be found in your house. Your kids will not use juice, yoghurt, or milk to step down.

Using 20-30K per week to run a home (with foodstuff already procured with a separate budget) in a city is very believable. It is the lowest band of the upper middle class.

One person will buy noodles and cook with the packaged condiments. Another will spend thousands on assorted ingredients.

Life no b competition. Anywhere your power reach, you stop.
