Omoapena:
how many buses pays you 13k to 15k daily?
1 korope. It depends how u hustle. I drive it only at Night. No Agbero wahala, No Latsma wahala, Papers are complete. If police stop me and search my paper's, no wahala, I only dash them #200. I go all route as I like. 2 or 3 go and come with fully loaded passengers would make u that money within 2 or 3hrs.

If it was, you wouldn’t ask. How many times have you seen threads open asking if 750K is a good salary? Now compare that with how many times threads are open asking if 15K, 30K and 60K are good salaries.
Sense will not kill you

This is what you can earn on a good day trading on paxful. Maximum 3 days fah.
But we have different realities. Wishing u good luck sha..
But my advice to you is to start finding more ways of making money o, 80k can’t sustain you as a man no matter how much u manage.

Re: Is 80k In Naira A Good Salary? by TRAPLORD13: 4:07pm On Feb 24, 2025
It sounds like a good amount but with the current state of things in Nigeria right now I don't think it will go a long way, especially if you are a family man.
But as a single with proper planning and sacrifice for now it's a good salary
Re: Is 80k In Naira A Good Salary? by mrkings84(m): 4:35pm On Feb 24, 2025
sharpwriter:
Depends on the state and cost of living there. Transport to and fro the place just as someone highlighted is also a factor. Half bread is better than none though.
At the end of the month, add your profit after all expenses.
No state in Nigeria that things are cheap...

That being said, there's no salary that's poor or rich, it depends on the status of the earner.

The answer to whether ₦80,000 is a good salary in Nigeria depends on various factors, including:

THIS IS BECAUSE OF BILLS such phcn bills, water bills, Gas bills, feeding, Medical, transportation cost.

2. Industry and job role Salaries can differ greatly depending on the industry, job role, and level of experience. ₦80,000 might be a good starting salary for an entry-level position in some industries, but it might be considered low for more experienced professionals or those in high-demand fields.

3. Personal circumstances: Individual financial obligations, debt, and financial goals also play a significant role in determining whether ₦80,000 is a good salary.
