@pendusky Jesu... So, someone actually in 2014 advised me to buy dollars and store... that if Buhari win dollar will double... I didn't want to take that risk, Buhari that was promising us 1N/$, then in GEJ era it was 180-190/$ that's about N18k/100$ The guy took loan, buy more than 5,000 dollars and store in his account... Last time I heard from the guy, he was on his way out of the country. If you have money, buy dollar and store, in 2years, dollar will reach N3,000/$ @me Can you see yourself? People like you are part of the problem. The high cost of dollar is not a true value of naira. It is mainly caused by speculation. Rather than hedge with fixed assets you are thinking about hedging with liquid asset. It could backfire. Just one event and your world comes crashing. |

You are here shouting over a naira that has all these years been overvalued. The over valuation has been supporting your consumption economy and importation business. The good side is that it will stop the importation mentality. I have been calling my relatives and friends abroad that this is the right time to invest in Nigeria. Just a few dollars and they could own a prime property that the value can sure triple in few years. They could invest in bluechip companies on the stock exchange with few dollars. Every event is an opportunity for smart and discerning investor. The ordinary people will spend endless time complaining. |

YourNextLevel: No, it's not affecting everyone. These are the sets of people it's not affecting; 1. Those in this government who steals our commonwealth. 2. Contractors who over inflate contracts and they belong. 3. Online entrepreneurs who earn their monies in dollars. 4. Established churches whose tithes and offerings never run dry. 5. Business men and women who owns wholesale and retail shops that are doing very well. The people mostly affected are; 1. Civil servants who don't have other sources of income. 2. Employees who depend on salary for survival. 3. The unemployed. 4. The fatherless and orphans. 5. The widows whose husbands left no inheritance. 6. Single mothers whose baby fathers have scamped. 7. Students from poor families. 8. Low income earners with large families. Well, the first category are far less. Say about 5% of our population. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Pay off how ? Are you gonna charge the tenants in dollars? Isn’t it the same naira that you will have to convert to dollars? When you invest and the exchange rate fails you you’re only going round in circles INTEGRITYA1: |

DLSReigns:Reno will handle the social media fall out, Akpabio will handle anyone that will call for impeachment,and it goes on. Things don't have to get worse from where buhari left, but better. Instead, they got much worse, and keeps getting worse and worse, until it's very worse before you realize that you voted someone not for competence purposes but whatever stupid reason. It's also worse again, when you still hide and pretend like it's normal; he's trying his best. Nigerians should just learn how not to mix sentiments up. It gets us to nowhere than general hardship. This one na " general market " for everyone. |

Kachidubem: The point is that it's better and more advantageous to save in USD than to save in naira. It's not just good, it's brilliant! A 50kg bag of rice in 2014 was about N35K. Let's suppose you had N35K and converted it to dollar back then and saved it in a dom account. Imagine another person also had N35K and saved it as naira at the same time. Which of you will be able to afford a bag of rice in Nigeria today with those savings? So the EFFECT of saving in dollars is that it retains value and thus provides more spending power. I don't understand why Nigerians like arguing over issues that are very clear. Very off putting. Have a good night though. Good Luck to Nigerians! 2 Likes |

ednut1: The issue is that you targeted investments which generate revenues from Nigerians. Invest into industries which are export oriented. Through that, you generate revenues in dollars instead of naira. As for buying lands and building hostels, total loss. Any investment wey no generate dollars as revenues should be avoided. |

IbeOkehie: Save in dollars Save in dollars Save in dollars I'm telling you , to even save in naira is hard already... CBN once released a statistics one time that says About less than 3% of Nigeria population have above 500k in dia savings account ... meaning alot of NIGERIANS don't even have up to 500,000 naira in dia bank account. Earning in dollars is one good thing thou, but you see earning in naira and buying dollars to save in Dom acct every now and then isnt easy. Billings won't let you save in peace , expenses here and there , further more , I will still say it again , that little money you save in dollars doesn't have much impact coz of inflation. 2 Likes |

askarachi:Asin ehn... I just dey laff... like they dont have expenses to make or what .... How can somebody store cash since 2011 till date and leave it untouched ..lmao Somebody said he saved in dollars back in 2013 (950k naira) ... now he withdrew the money in 2023 (4.4mill naira) So , he took 10 good years to gain profit of 3 million naira... 10 yrs to make 3 mill doesn't sound impressive self to me Plus, I can bet you , whatever you planned to buy 2013 be it car or anything, by 2023 when you withdraw your money, INFLATION will be waiting for you My frnd in uni bought Lexus rx350 suv in 2014 2.7 mill, even if he had saved that money in dollars to make 3 mill profit ..today that same car cost 6.6 million naira. |
