How much is in your account. I bet you major things you have are on finance if truly you're not suffering

someone said N700k will give you "good life" in Nigeria

lmaoo
grin grin grin

For someone who hardly see steady N200k of his own, N700k a month is huge 😆

grandstar is a big man

been following his posts for years and I can tell

But 700k cannot give you good quality of life in Nigeria sha

Unless maybe your wife also earns 800k and no kids

Lmao @ this south african asking this question

The truth is African countries as a whole are in a mess right now

Why you guys seem to not feel the heat is because of the BEE plus other social security nets available to U guys which is good

In Nigeria, govt doesn't care about you

That's a very poor conclusion. The way some people reason gives me goose pimples. Do you know whether he's destined to survive and have breakthrough in the UK? Is it your Nigeria that people are paying ransomes and being murdered upandan that's better to endure?
Do they even know about his plans at all. Let them sit down there and be castigated the man. The man may even have another property more expensive than the one he sold. Chochochocho everywhere.

Good decision 👍
At least he didn't sale the house to pay for ransom to bandits.

First lie here, you can't be in the UK in a room, husband wife and 2 kids, after seeing that one room statement. I said everything there is crap. No landlord will rent that apartment to you.

If there's no wife or kid, you'd be right.

But again, with 700k, if you're prudent, you can still take good care of a wife and 2 kids. It would be an extra if the wife was also working or owns a business.

To be really okay with a wife and 2 kids, 1.5m might be a start.

I always tell people who have the opportunity to japa to do it without hesitation but there're some risks I won't take. One of such risk is what this man did......You can turn to square zero within a second if you make the wrong move.

I would put it in Treasury Bills or borrow it to different loan apps. I only survive with the interest which is 15% each year. So each year I get ₦9m

I am not extravagant. ₦700k a month is more than enough (especially as no transportion cost to work)... Of course, if their is any small side-hustle, I would invest wisely. Lay back and relax.
...and then one day, you walk into the warm embrace of armed herdsmen and your family has to pay N50m for your release. It's on that day you'd realise that it's poverty mentality that made you think N60 million was a lot of money...... grin
