The same north that has over 10m children out of school?
That's why I'm asking where you stay so I can burst your lie.
9k is just about 12litres now which is less than one third of a 60L tank. What kind of car are you using and where are your driving to that you use just around 12litres of fuel in a whole week. Lie will not kill you o.
When is the soon? Can you give a period to look forward to and what are the benefits to expect?

I do 12 minutes from home to work. I could get to 90km/h speed.

Mind you, I don't stay in the core north.

Dotherightthing:
You are a liar! Minimum wage in US can NEVER be USD1,160

During the corona era, the highest palliative Trump dished out was USD600 and it was considered much

Back to my point, after you pay all your insurance bills and mortgages, more than half of your salary is gone!

The remaining bills will leave you with next to nothing at the end of the month.

Why call him a liar?

The minimum wage he quoted up there is for vacation work teens. Minimum wage is $15+ per hour.

Oga I don't know whether it's Carina2 you're driving but no decent car will drive 24minutes everyday due seven days on 15l of fuel. What you're claiming is that your car will drive for 4hrs with 15l which gives 4litres per hour.
Dats a description fir a golf2 or carina2 and you're claiming you're living fine. Suffer don master you.
Go and upgrade your life bros.

I use a 6-plug vehicle

Also, did I tell you I empty my tank every week or even allow it to flash yellow

9k fuel takes me for the week. I am doing well to the glory of God.

My mind was on monthly pay not hourly job.

Those USD15 jobs don't come everytime.

A 6plug engine is a V6 engine. 9k fuel ~15L can't take you on a 30 minutes drive everyday for a week. Take it to the bank. Even if you don't empty your tank, the fact remains you can't use 9k fuel a week with a V6 engine. So you're simply lying.
My V6 engine which I drive for a ten minute drive to work everyday, and other places of less than 15minutes consume 50 litres fuel in 2 weeks. And it's a toyota. If its Honda, it will be worse.

Well, that's what I do per week. Take it or leave it. There is no traffic jam here.

Just last Saturday, I bought 10k fuel and it's going to take me till this Saturday by God's grace.

Well, it's not realistic to make the claim you're making.
No way 15L will take you for a week driving 30mins everyday.
It's not a question of traffic jam or not. It's just not realistic

Walk into any fast food place, restaurant, store etc today and see ads everywhere “we’re hiring for immediate start, apply and start today”.

Many of these companies are all paying at least $15/hr and even offering other incentives like education grants because workers are scarce. Some states are even passing legislation to reduce the legal work age and allow children to work because there is shortage of workers

You go into a store and out of 9 store registers, only 2 are operational because there are no staff to hire

I already mentioned that unemployment rate was 3.6%, companies are struggling to find and even retain workers

So what does “Those $15 jobs don’t come every time” mean?

After all said and done, what do you have at the end of the day. That's all that matters.

Say what you know, brother.

Have you been to the UK? where in the world do people pay 40% tax? why not kuku take the whole salary!

Dotherightthing:
Come on, tax will take at least 40% of the guy in in UK's wages

In Nigeria, those at the lowest ebb of the minimum wage scale(drivers and gatemen) live in their own houses. They pay next to nothing as tax.

Your head dey there.

The dude no know hafar

The truth is, most people are even avoiding the $15 per hour jobs when they can get $20-$25 per hour due to a shortage of workers and that's exactly what's happening out there.

a4cube:
Stop talking rubbish. This how you agbadorian misinform your Agbado crowd to vote rubbish during election.

The person paying £450 per room will still pay school fees of you guys children in Nigeria after paying your acclaimed 40% tax.

Shit up!
You're angry obi did not win. He did not win and he can never win unless he bows to Jagaban!

Jagaban for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope. More like you don't know your consumption. You already said you don't wait for your light to turn on

socialmediaman:
A person on minimum wage in the US earns $1,160 a month and pays $50 for electricity, less than 5% of his income. Can a person on minimum wage of 30k in Nigeria afford to pay 7k just for electricity?

How much does th person living in thr usa pay on rent per month again? A studio apt or a room part goes for about $650 depending on where you live in the USA. 2 bed starts from about $1200 even up to $2400 PER MONTH.

Most people who have a range of payment from 40 hours a week job at $7.27 min wage mostly live in a single room or studio apt-with maybe a child.

While in Nigeria people with 400k monthly salary will rent a 3 bed house with 4 children and a wife where they pay about 700k-

The most disciplined people in terms of spending are thr whites. Because what? They have to budget their pay.

There’s no rocket science about life anywhere. BUT in these western Worlds you are furnished with more opportunities, better and educative environments, job opportunities and moderate security.

But they struggle to pay bills like people do in Nigeria. Nigerians spend without budget while the whites don’t.

Apart from thr myriads of problem with thr govt here, our attitude towards life is wack.

Now we have people who get paid nicely In Nigeria and live comfortably well same as other western world.

Life is circular. We just need our leaders to put the country on a pedestal whereby we will all believe in the system. Th problem right now is lack of trust in the system/institution

Just give up already. From the days of 200 per litre, I have been doing an average of 15litres per week amounting to 3k.

Cumulative taxes get up to that for sure.

I know what I am saying

lOL, FARMS AND tips, you are really happy to see your people in perpetual poverty!
Its your gut to defend utter rubbish for me
You can be doing this for free though

Dotherightthing:
Are you earning like a driver/gateman in the UK

Why are you comparing yourself with drivers and gatemen in Nigeria

Nevertheless, these people get tips and have farms and other business concerns which helps them get by. You don't have that luxury in the UK

So he only has 160 to feed! lol If thats the case, then US would have been worst than Nigeria, if we ask source now, it will be from your brother's cousin uncle

Dotherightthing:
The guy in the US will pay tax of at least USD500

He will pay monthly house rent of about USD500

Then what is he left with

That is why he has to live on credit cards

Dotherightthing:

Okay, sir.

I was just giving estimates.

But the fact is that most folks there live on credit cards...

My best friend is in US, not most folks but a friend and I am also not in Nigeria, I tell you the taxs are not what you see. Can you explain how anyone would survive on 160$ per month in USA?

Above 50K annually you mean? not everyone earns that, average is about 18-20% tax

You and I know there are other taxes that come to drive up the tax rate to about 40%

Quite busy now else I would have shown you

socialmediaman:
These are averages:

Petrol price
US: N900/liter
Nigeria: N600/liter


Minimum wage (monthly)
US: N928,000 ($7.25/hr x 40 hrs/week x4 wks)
Nigeria: N30,000

The political elites are suffocating the citizens to cater for their corruption, and sadly some of these citizens are cheering them on

Don't mind our suffering and smiling supporters

Maybe a little more than that. But it's also tough out there. That's my point.
