Draw out a budget and spend according to your budget.

And if you must date, go for someone with a reasonable income. Don't waste your time dating a liability.

There are people who earn between 150k-200k monthly, and they're still surviving.

You'll be fine.

In Nigeria today, it puts you well within the poverty bracket particularly if you have dependents apart from yourself. undecided

Just cut ur expense....500k is not small money in naija ....just that our leaders are heartless making some expense too high

No generator every night ...u won't die

If u have kids....DStv subscriptions should be during holidays....they wont die.....

If u have a car that u use daily to work that takes as little as 10litres per day ....that's roughly 10-11k per day and 220k per month minus Saturday and Sunday outing and servicing cost....Use public transport ..u won't die...

Buy satchet water instead of bottle...or check if ur tap water is drinkable...a friend told me he started taking his tap water when he calculated and found his cost on water was 80k month...

Cut your costs... If you get this via remote jobs, relocate to a less expensive town or state.

You are no longer comfortable because your mind has consistently seen that amount and it's demanding to grow beyond that... It's human nature
Re: Is ₦650k Monthly Income Not Considered A Good Income? by SmartyPants(m):
To some people it is a fortune. To some it is a pittance. What does it matter??

Are you asking to know if you should hustle more? Of course, you should.

Are you asking to know if you should be content? Of course, you should be.

Are you asking to know if you have arrived? Of course, you haven't.

Your rent determines if it's ok or not. What is your rent? You can't be paying rent of N1.5M and still want to be comfortable

From Jega.

Teacher70:
Whenever I remember that I only earn 35k monthly as a private sch teacher and the first Born of my family without parents, I feel like I'm a waste. Each time I want to pay my landlord his rent and I take out over 100k to pay, I instantly notice I am enslaving myself
Damn!
