I'm even tired of everything
I don't understand and can't fathom why life is like this.
I'm only living, I'm not existing at all.
The cost of living is outrageous and cost of leaving is exorbitant. Living is difficult, and leaving takes a lot of guts.

To see something put for belle na by miracle. My belle keeps paining me as if my intestines are been twisted. It's hellish

40 more characters needed for simple question that requires one line of answer?

6k per day on food
30k internet
15k NEPA bill
5k airtime
20-50k as gift to friends and family.

That's 250-280k
As long as you're remembering friends and families, God will continue to bless and replenish you. Life isn't easy on the orphans

What you pay as rent, others use it as medication bills for elderly parents. Apart from that also feeding others apart from themselves.

5000 x 30
150k per month
Re: Single people: How much Do You Spend On Cost Of Living. by Elizkid: 10:44am On Jul 28, 2025
Roughly 5-6k per day on food if I'm eating out.

On days when I don't, probably just 2-3k for meat/fish and peppers, cause I have everything one could need for cooking at home.

Stocking the house with food costs 50-80k, but it usually lasts me 40-50 days

Transport 3-5k daily on the max 7-10 days when I step out in a month.

Data 10k personal, 5k for the TV and Xbox.

These are the only spendings with constant patterns.

Well I just want to compare people in my own category.
