Hello Nairalanders,

Please, I’ll keep this brief and straight to the point.

I need honest opinions and practical advice.
Can someone realistically survive in Nigeria on a daily income of $10?. I work from home.

If no, please explain why.

If yes, I’d appreciate a clear strategy—how to manage it, possible business ideas, and how one could grow beyond that income level.

For context, I currently earn $10 daily online from my blog, and on some days $13.

If this income is not sustainable in the long run, I genuinely want to know so I can plan better and make informed decisions.

Constructive advice only, please.

Moderators, kindly assist with visibility. Thank you.

That is roughly 450k per month.

To start with,u need to first open to ur wife and tell her how much u earn and give her all the necessary clues.

50k multiply by 5= # 250k that is,if u work from home.

The remaining balance of about 200k can then be saved,so as to save u in the future.

Are you a web designer or you setup your blog with WordPress?

Everything depends on u. Your ability to save is a key issue here and the nature of business is another thing entirely.

What is bad if you open like 9 more of that for other niches and employ people to manage it to increase your earnings

No. If you drive a car it is a no no. Daily food and band A electricity. If you don't buy any essential commodities, you don't hang out and you don't drive, you only eat and pay rent and band A electricity and TV subscription, data subscription, Netflix and YouTube subscription. maybe it will carry you.

But note that you are a poor person. That's why I wondered the 800k benchmark for income tax it just senseless.

During pdp 10$ was around 1500. But now I think 14,000

See question for country wey people dey survive Wella with 1 dollar per day...
Depends on your taste Sha.
If you are economical and prudent you will do well with 10 dollar per day.
But if you are the extravagant type 100 dollars will not be enough....

Of course you can survive

How much is 9ja minimum wage?

You can . You need to let your wife know about it so you plan how to save and reach a target..

14k+ multiply by 30 equal to 420k+

You will survive very well with it.

When do Nigerian start earning in dollars 😏

That is actually the monthly salary of some medical doctors in Nigeria.

Political laptop, keyboard boys here earn lesser than this here

Helinus or whatever is your name no be 30k ?

Sure you can. You just need to strategize very well. 10 dollars is a whole lot in Nigeria right now.

If I see 5 dollar daily, I'll glad

Can you please put me through on the the job that pays this amount daily.

Permission to send a DM sir 🙏

How consistent is the earnings in long run?
That's what matters.

Some people dey here wey dey pray for even 1$ every day

Sure, you can. Just don't have more than 1kid, no side chicks and no alcohol.

Wow! Bros, I am a blogger too. Also, there are so many other online hustles that pay well and they all either in dollar or euro.

How.much do you spend on fueling and generator repairs

Is this before or after taxes? I feel so sad for Nigerians. No one should live this way

My lashes and nails alone 10dollars don go. My advice, if you are not marry yet, don't marry. You wouldn't want to bring someone to come surfer with you. Would you?

Conclusion, 10dollars is too poor.

PS: Earn in dollars too so I know what I am saying. Exchange rate is not stable.

Yes you will survive no doubt, you will survive very - very well BUT surviving won't be your issue . . .

IT WILL BE LIVING

You'd be waking and sleeping and dazzall 🤗

shortgun:
Yes but as a very poor man.
You will live in a slump, shop in the rural market and drive a 2003 Toyota Corolla.

Your wife will live after 6 months

Who be this one ??
Is this necessary

This is more than what people who do the normal 8-5hrs daily job do receive even with overtime added to it.

Adjust and plan with it...... You will be okay

Opening a business for your wife ? I hope she's also contributing to the business.

This thread is not for you then

In this regime, if you are earning $1 per day in Nigeria where 140 million are projected to be poor, you are already in the middle class bracket

1)Open a bamboo account, invest one dollar daily ( make sure you listen to Warren Buffett, Charlie Bunger, Peter Lynch etc before starting your investment journey)

2)Don't invest in Nigerian stock( if your US stock gains $1 that's 1500, if you buy Nigerian stock and it gains 1 naira it's still 1 naira)

3)Give one dollar a day to charity

You can never survived on $10 per day
