charles009: The part that caught my attention is VISITING ENUGU ONCE A WEEK FROM LAGOS. Let's do the Math. Assuming you're travelling once every week, TO and FRO = N100,000 TP 4 Weeks X N100,000 = N400,000 a month roughly + Lagos intra movement TO and FRO work and home = N65,000 Altogether = N465,000 per month for transport Per year = N465,000 X 12 months = N5, 580, 000 Is that what you'll be spending because you miss ONLY your kids? How much is your gross salary per annum? Is it up to N15,000,000? Please, wise up and visit your family once in three months if you know you want to save and not face the dangers of the road. If you're thinking of using the airline, then we will multiply that N5, 580, 000 by 7 times. Anyway, Lagos has some sweet campus runs babes that you can lay with if the need arises or better still use a Vaseline. I wish you a great Lagos adventure. Cheers! |

charles009: You want to visit Enugu once weekly? That means you want to die young (stress induced). You'd probably spend all of your Saturdays sleeping (resting) from the stress of the week, so cancel that once weekly. Monthly still works 1 Like |

Better leave ur family behind unless you are staying in a high brow area in Lagos. Lagos life is not for kids that didn’t grow up there |

charles009: I've been there and I must say that I totally agree with your wife on the need to settle down first before you move your family. The downside though is the home sickness and the cost of maintaining 2 homes in the interim. Just give yourself no later than a year to settle down (a few months should do) then move your family to join you. |

charles009:welcome to living in lagos …you will have to fill a form to join the exclusive MBA club ( Married But Available ) . In 6-12 months after joining I don’t think you will see the need to have your family moving down here to join you , best you pay them a visit once in 3 months . Sharon , Derby and Co. will be doing enough work on your body than you can imagine . |

I'm also in your shoes, left my family of ten years to work in Lagos. You will get used to it, all you need to do is sit your wife down and have a heart to heart discussion on how the family will pull through the period. Reassure her that all will be well and also ask for her support even though you did not mention about missing her. As for your kids, don't know how old they are but be rest assured they will also adjust. Nonetheless, call them frequently especially on video call. That your once a week travel to Enugu no fit work. Even if you go once in a month, body go tell you. However if you can move your family with you now then do not hesitate. All the best bro |

charles009: You want to visit once a week, how many days are in a week You are relocating to make life easier if not you will not be leaving them behind If you will be missing them, plan for them to come this Christmas, Easter and long vacation to spend that time with you Give yourself one year and they can relocate to you, by then you would have gotten a school for them Goodluck |

charles009:is it sustainable to travel from Lagos to enugu every weekend?let's be realistic about the cost and risks,at least once monthly is ok with enough video calls to makeup while planning to take them in the shortest time possible |
