That one na money? That's about $1,300 now, come on. Remember we actually buy everything from abroad.

In Zimbabwe at some point someone could take a million of their money to clean up after toilet, so Nigeria still has some ways to go before that.

Yet our maximum currency note is ₦1,000 as "economist" Dele Momodu fought to prevent Jonathan government from printing 5k notes.

NIGERIA IS A JOKE!


it's only a matter of time before we see N2000 and N5000 notes......

imagine how the current Nigerian maximum currency is only worth $1.35

some people will kick against what I just wrote reason being that they dont want politicians to steal efficiently or they don't want inflation....

shocker!!!! those two situations cannot be stopped,,, politicians will still steal, and inflation will still inflate

When Dele Momodu did his own, naira was around 155 to dollar. I hope he has prevented inflation now. Lol

And there was stats that 90% of Nigerians own less than 500K NGN is their bank accounts! Mehn that means most Nigerians currently have low standard of living!
ogbiwa:
I've just been thinking and I realised that with 1 million naira, you can't:
- buy a house
- buy a decent car
- buy a decent landed property
- construct a proper building foundation
- setup a decent business
- self-fund a proper business idea from zero
- etc

So I realised there are actually Nigerian "millionaires" who can't afford most of the things I listed above (technically, anyone with atleast 1 million Naira is a millionaire, by definition)
So does this mean some of our millionaires here, compared to their counterparts in other countries, are actually considered broke?

Is there something of real value you know can be bought with 1 million Naira that I may have missed? Let me know in the comments. Ogbiwa

Lol you people just talk like drunkard so with 20m you categorize yourself as a rich man money wey no even go Dubai trip with your family....

LOL. You'd be surprised people sold their votes for two cups of rice, five cups of maggi, and a fez cap which soon wash off in the last elections.

People sold votes on credit which weren't even redeemed. The crazy things happening in this country.

Real estate. Co-own / Joint venture. 1M is just right. And it can appreciate after 6 months or a bit more... You can decide to get your profit after 6 months and re invest.

Land wahala and land isn't liquid that what people don't know. Then the country isn't regulated fake papers and scam.

Main reason you need to involve a lawyer when you are buying a piece of land. You have a point about it's liquidity, that's where the location comes in. And that's why I mentioned that he buys it and watch it the value grow, it could take a few years, but it will definitely appreciate.

I recall an old friend of my mum's, she bought 7 plots of land for 125k each sometime around 2009, fast forward to 2013, having become widowed and retired as a teacher sometime along the line, she sold 6 of the 7 plots, used the money to build a solid bungalow and also fund her first daughter's wedding and bought a car too. My mum regretted not buying it back then, saying it was too obscure.

But with 5billion you can categorize yourself as a rich man in Nigeria, you can also contest an election buh with ordinary 20m you are not fit to even contest for ordinary chairman in the two top party in Nigeria...


So don't compare 5billion with 20m with 20m you can't say you're rich in Nigeria....
