You earn 200k monthly and in your mind you’re earning much Mtcheww!!

If you carry me for shopping with that money I can’t even pick up to 4 clothes and the money will be exhausted not to talk of bag and shoes

Biko, just stay away from a relationship in order not to put someone’s daughter in abject poverty.

Poor girl with empty brain

LegallyBlunt:


Did I read this well or this is some joke?

How can you blow 200K in less than a week? Doing what exactly? The economy is bad, yes, but 200K can still go a long way and last a full month if used wisely. Even married people would be great to earn this much money now!

Is it transport?
Do you eat out only/buy food?
Do have dependents?

If you don't know how you spend your income, then you're one very unserious fellow.

Bros, in today's naija, 200k does not run my expenses more that a few days. If I manage heavily, it barely will go 7 days. Inflation has damaged our purchasing power.

I earn a little above dat with 3kids

After filling gas, sub n nepa about 20k now

Safes up like 20k to 30k after giveout 10k to 20k monthly including Mom cuz we contribute and send her in bulk like 80k to 150k monthly..we be like 13

God is your strength. It is not easy these days.

Abi oh. I watch that egungu guy on fb. All those chicks he interviews call hair 200k, 500k, 1m, 1.5, 2m. No be juju be dat?

erico2k2:
how can you live with 100k in a month with family comfortably?

mission impossible

Twist4u:
The reality of this matter is, NAIRA HAS LOST VALUE in multiple of 8x times.

Cost of goods and services campared to year 2013 has shown astronomical increase by 8 times in some cases 10 times.

#40k in 2013 is stronger than 200k now

Let's Do the math :
1 bag of Rice in 2013 is #8,000
In 2024 1 bag of Rice is #70,000

70,000 ÷ 8,000 = 8. 6 times difference

I liter of Fuel in 2013 =#87
I liter of Fuel in 2024 = # 670

#670 ÷ #87 = 7.7 times difference.

We can go on and on....

Here's is, the same man, in the same country, earning the same salary, But, Buying goods and services 8 times it's formal price.


And many people wonder why he complained.

I earned 2x of the op, I found myself asking almost similar question 2 weeks ago.

Bros, 2013, I charged 50k for a service, it gave me $357.
Today I charge at leat ₦200k, and it is $110!
To get the value of 2013 50k, ie $375, I need to charge at least ₦678,300. But who will pay?

Stupid broke ass . It's your type that don't work but one useless idiot will be giving you monthly allowance. Your si longs are drinking garri in your state . You are here in another man state doing hook up hustling and making noise of clothed and hand bag

This thread is a testament to the low living of most nigerians mostly the youths. lol. They taught 200k is a big money.

Verbtips:
mission impossible

impossible

Well, for me, I earn 194k monthly. I make sure a month's salary pays my yearly rent. My kids go to a moderately okay private school. I eat at home. No drinking, smoking or womanizing. I still try to save between 30-40k monthly.
At times if fresh fish worry me I go turn my face away. Na planning. May GOD help us all.

It is not easy in Nigeria even before this present administration, talkless of what we are facing now. I run a POS business and was making over 300k monthly in 2021 till 2022. In 2023, my monthly profit reduced to 240 something, i was still managing it. As at Nov., 2022, marriage came. Wifey got preggy and we had our child in 2023. Still making more than 240k every month.

Long story short, it has not been easy, but we are doing fine, maybe because of my past savings though, but past savings don even finish now cos man has done a whole lot with money. Monthly profit has even gone back to 175k this month. Last month was 153k. But i still save ooo cos how i will pay my 300k yearly rent if i don't save and my wife and baby eat well. My baby monthly expenses for now is still 25k. We dont use 12kg gas, but 6kg. My prepaid metre no dey pass 4k in a month. Last time i bought half bag of rice was last year November, but we dey eat well to the glory of God and have never ran out of money. And still pay Tithe. Na only project i no fit do for now, but we can feed and do some basic things with some agidi. If wifey start work, we go balancw again

OP you can cut unnecessary expenses. You dey make more than me now sef..

Kingsasian:
You are right bro. I earn close to that amount and sometimes more because I work online which pays bi-monthly and on-site which pays monthly. Mehn right now I am dead broke. Naira no get value at all.

How much do you charge per nightm

You're living above your means. Adjust, cut down your expenses, and review your lifestyle.

mistercharles:
Just one question bro. Do you gamble??

No I dont

webbxxpert:
If this is a lie (and I hope it is), it is an over bloated lie and if it's true, man! You need to seat down with yourself and talk to yourself.
I don't want to ask how you blow 200k in a week, because I know why, and that won't be an issue if you were earning earning more, much more than 200k.

You need to cut your clothes according to your size and also inculcate the habit of saving. Forget investment for now, just save and build on funds first then think of how to invest the funds when you get enough saved.

Practicable advice coming from an experienced person.

She is just catching cruise to seek attention. Nothing more.

ravensckar:
If you're complaining that 200K monthly is no longer sustainable, what will people who earn less say?

Sometimes, I feel you guys deliberately create this kind of topic to 'pepper' some people. Make una take am suffery suffery o, pressure ti wa already.

My brother, it's not to pepper o. I earn more than this, I'm single but things are still hard. You can't buy anything else you will be broke. Just eat and watch on.

WhiteRuler:
I mean by the grace of God, I have been making such amount per month and sometimes more, but can I shock you? I'm always broke! That money, if it comes in bulk does not stay more than 5 days in my account before the account balance returns to what looks like a radio station frequency (92.5, 93.7 etc). Lol.

Abeg anybody else in my shoes? I don't drink, smoke or womanize or even spend money on unnecesary things. The cost of living in the country is just EXTREMELY high, which is the main thing that finishes the money in no time.

As things are now, making millions is the only way out but how I go reach there?

Which hustles I fit add to the one I'm doing now?

On the flip side, I believe successful governments especially the present one have been very intentional about subjecting the citizens into poverty the more for political gains.

My point

With the level of hunger, starvation and frustration going on in the country, people would be begging for any amount to vote during election, the political gains.

May God help us.

😂 Same shxt I'm facing... Person go dey see like 2-300k per month but still broke as F... Started this February with 350k, as I'm typing now na 5k dey my account.

Man's tired

God will supply our needs. Please suggest POS machine for a beginner. Can a beginner make up to 50k monthly please?

Enskynelson:
If he is married with at least a kid and live in a city, that money cannot reach anywhere. It's just me and my wife with almost zero social life, yet I can understand what he is saying.

They won't understand... Man I check my debit alert daily and I cried. 300k no be money if you have a family in today's Nigeria.

Angelfrost:
You and Op need to tailor your expenses and living standards to the current economic realities.

200k gone in less than a month by an individual points towards ostentatious living.

I am a young family man and can't tell how I got to this level. Well, it's the first time I am experiencing this.

And how much do u make per month? (I mean money from Ur own efforts, not from boyfriend and sugar daddies)

Why would someone go and blow 200k on your head in this harsh economy when your pus*y is not the gateway to heaven?

abobote:
We that womanize have really suffered, is it why money doesn't last in our hands

Of course! Womanising na your mate? That thing will put very big hole on your pocket, especially those that don't use eyes to see woman and yansh.

Stop womanising and 60% of your financial barrenness will disappear.

flexyrule:
The people saying that the OP isn't prudent are either residents of Osogbo or they're still between 22 to 26 years living with their parents or a relative.

As a family man with say 6 years work experience, living in a city. 200k is nothing.

Tithe - 20k
Gas 15k
DSTV - 10k
Your parents - 50k (Worst case)
Fuel for car - 80k (As in you dey drive less than 50km to and back from work be that)
Feeding - 50k

You're already in a deficit....
Rent nko?
Light bill?
Data/Airtime?
Laundry nko?
You no go chill?

How much be 200k abeg?

Anybody who says N200k salary is plenty money hasn't earned 200k...

Brother abeg, reduce from that your tithe. Instead of giving tithe of 20k a month, do it this way. Share that 20k into 4 places (5k each). Add 5k to your saving. Go to an orphanage home and give them 5k. That is the best tithe so far you will ever give. Then the remaining 10k should go for your church tithe.

I will rather give more to the orphanage than to give such for church tithe. You will feel fulfilled cutting out of that huge church tithe and give a portion to an orphanage children in an orphanage home.

It's well. Na man you be. Surviving in this Nigeria with family is not easy.

Please, I want to ask, I will like to start this POS business and employ someone to run it for me. How much can one use to start it?

You said it all. But people like ogbonti and pansophist will still tell you that Nigeria is heaven on earth where people enjoy and live like Kings.

They believe people are enjoying in this Nigeria, living and doing pretty well like Kings and Queens. Little do they know that many are suffering and dieing inside and can't even eat a square meal a day. Some go to bed with empty stomachs.

And yet, you will still find some persons that will always turn a blind eye to the hardship, kidnappings and terrorism that is plaquing the whole country and will rather tell you that those living abroad are suffering and living miserable life.

How heartless can some humans be!
