Very very annoying

What happened to enugu? What about zamfara. What about ondo state...what about Edo state
Oga. No vex. No need to para.

The person asking the question obviously is in Lagos and is asking for questions based on where he stays.

If you live in Enugu and zamfara, ask your own too na. It's a very free world. Biko.

To be honest, no amount of money is enough in present day Nigeria when talking about salaries and wages. 1m monthly today will not be enough no matter how you manage it if agbado and cassava man enter power again because prices will quadruple and wages will be stagnant.
Don't overblow things.

How extravagant are you if you have to spread the tentacles of your pessimism this much?

People with families live just fine on 200k salaries (depending on what part of Lagos). 1m monthly is enough to feed some streets in this same Lagos.

Let's be moderate as much as possible when answering questions. That was overboard!

Be reasonable and talk like an intelligent person.

For a single guy at least #1.5million per month for average good living.

Married man with 4 children at least #9million per month.

Why spend 2m for accommodation? I think that's outrageous
adecz:
cool

💲1000 to 💲1500 is a good starting
point with a budget of N2m for accommodation ☑️☑️☑️

Dem go ask questions, people in other state will never talk. U will all keep mute. When Lagos based people talk, u go dey para say why always Lagos. This is an open forum, U too can open up your enclaves to the world with better details and update about your community and stop all this tantrums about Lagos.
Mowiree!

What am I missing, why is everybody bracing up for the emergence of agbado as the president??

You don't need a monthly salary to survive in Lagos unless it's in 500k and above. What you need is weekly or daily income

Considering the salary alone is fulfilling one part of the equation. You need to consider your expenses which are largely dependent on your lifestyle.

Any advice here is based on that individual's own lifestyle (expenses) which are largely probable to be different from yours. Roll your sleeve and do the maths yourself.
