Lol...

Are these people serious?

You destroy the economy, devalue the currency to ridiculous levels and then brag about it?

$1 in the US would get you a variety of snacks that can be quite filling.

That boli and fish that is N1,500 today, was less than N200 10 years ago. The meal you can get for $1 in the US today, was about 85 cents 10 years ago.

That $1 is about 0.1% of the average minimum wage in the US.

N1,500 over 2% of the minimum wage in Nigeria.

Hope Tope can see the difference in cost of living and purchasing power.
$1 will not get you any snacks in the US. Mention the snacks or delete your comment.

Was so big. I just get tired of it.



bixton:
You bought jumbo chicken for 5 dollars and you couldn't finish it for two weeks......
Interestingly, I don't think you're a heavy eater.

I don't know whats the size of your jumbo chicken but there are those who would eat it within three days if I were to eat it mixed with other food items.
Otherwise if it's just only the chicken, that just breakfast, launch and dinner with my packet of juice or bottle of yogurt and it's finished.

Maybe garri and groundnuts.

Imagine how these ingrates think.

Which Fast food can you get a Good meal with 1500naira ?

Is it Chicken Republic?
Is it Kilimanjaro?...
Is it tantalizes?
.is it even white House in Yaba
Or in
Ozone?

Or all these risky burgers and mass production Mama puts that put your life at risks

Why not work to take Nigerians off hunger lines at least to where Gej left us?


You guys removed all the subsidies both physically and spiritually and lock up the money for yourselves alone .


Wicked set of people
You better learn to know what you eat than depending on all your trusted food vendors above that uses white maggi to prepare their food. I mean your tantalizers them

What are you waiting for?
Hop on the next available flight to enjoy $1 lunch.

This guy was comparing $10 to $1, how does that make sense since
Nigeria spends Naira and not Dollar.
He should have compared $10 to #10.

DUMMY DUM. WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

THE AVERAGE NIGERIAN WORKER MAKES A LOT MORE THAN 1,500 NAIRA A DAY, OR 1 DOLLAR.

LITTLE KIDS SITTING IN THEIR DADDY’S HOUSE TYPING IGNORANT RUBBISH.

She should rest. There's no rule to it. Your level and what you want determines the price. There are many locations in Nigeria that 3k(2$) can not get you a plate of food. And there are still some that will give you "pls don't die food" around 1$ .

Re: $10 Won’t Buy You Lunch In U.S, But $1 Will Get You Meal In Nigeria – Tope Fasua by tunapawizzy:
nonsense analogy..minimum wage in Nigeria is approximately 438naira per hour......so if u eat boli and fish with 1500, you are using nearly 4hrs income to eat boli and fish.
People dont use half of their daily income to eat boli and fish in the US. He should analyze logically

The federal minimum wage in the US is $7.25 per hour. For Nigeria, it is $0.97 (97 cents) per hour. He buys his meals from the likes of McDonald's and Co. for at least 10 dollars. The $1 he based his comparison on can barely buy a meatpie from either KFC, Kilimanjero etcetera etcetera.

Will 10 naira buy you a meal? Compare $10 to N10 not $10 to N1600.

Must he eat KFC in Nigeria? KFC is an American something. Why would it not be expensive in Nigeria?

He can eat amala and ewedu with assorted. It’s even more nutritious, and far cheaper than all this western stuff like KFC, meat pies, shawarma, etc.

It’s your thirst for FOREIGN that is hurting you people.

Instead of looking for ABULA JOINT, you are looking for KFC and MacDonalds.

Keep looking. The thing you are looking for, you will find it one day. 👨‍💻

We already told them and educated these ignorant people to stop making this kind of silly argument. If it is that simple, how come the standard of living in USA is far better than that of Nigeria?
Who told him that one needs 10 dollars or above to be able to eat one meal in USA? May be we should start with the comparisons of prices of milk, chicken, rice in Nigeria and USA. Then, we progress to how much the unskilled labour makes an hour in USA and in Nigeria.

Then, his 5 dollars (N7500) example is another senseless comparison. Unskilled labour may not make up to (or more than) 7500 naira in Nigeria in a day whereas unskilled labour in USA makes more than 5 dollars an hour in USA or UK

Phool your brain is empty.
Compare Dollar with country that use Dollar and compare Naira with Nigerians

If we are talking of 10 as figure to compare
It should be $10 for US citizens and N10 for Nigerians.

That is the right comparison you big head Phool
