Maybe except for APC party members, I think a lot of others are going through a lot one way or the other hidden in smiling faces and the daily struggle of life in the market, under an air conditioner room, or even abroad.

How do you really cope?

Mine:

Learned various skills on Coursera and upgraded old skills...to not only decorate my CV but enhance my knowledge.
Apart from freelancing as a writer, web developer, app build, software designer, I also tried UGC. I know what it used to be before isn't what it is now but men, it'd not been totally easy as a father.


Note: Kindly don't use this post to beg for alms. Rather than finding free money, may I suggest you sell yourself and what you can do, what you did, and what you are doing?

We're managing. My only anger is that data boys don't care, they're ready to vote tinubu again come next year. They are just not bothered about the insecurity, inflation and other problems suffocating the people. They don't mind if everyone becomes beggars, as long as they see their 30k, they'll keep supporting tinubu. But God pass them.

Omooooooooo

trying ni o

na Tinubu o

Na God dey epp me,based on say I be son of God.. Gloraay!

I don buy frying pan. Na junction to fry Akara I dey find now. Abeg junction for Una area dey free? Who get ground nut oil and beans wey him no dey use?

I'm coping well by staying out of other people's business.

Back then, I used to get involved in other people's life trouble; trying to help or save them. By the time dem use billing weak me, nobody teach me before I ran away.

Also, I had to change some bad habits that always drain me financially. If you know, you be O.G

This country isn't that hard, na some of us carry wetin big pass us put for head.

In summary, my coping mechanisms are; HUSTLE, PLAN HOW TO SPEND THE MONEY & MIND MY BUSINESS.

Hasn't been easy but what do we do?

Noted.

I never for once owe Nigeria gratitude for my sustainance but God. The country has always been taking from me and has never given me back anything in return.

Omo! I dey fear to touch the 60k wey dwy my opay, because e never even reach wetin I wan use am for

How I cope?

It's either 001, 100 or 010

But I don't know how my maker does it that 1 will always find a way to be entering 0 steady 😏

Ebydeb:
Eiyaa! i wish i could help.

Chei! I love nairaland 🥰

If you can help with the "Putting 1 inside 0 part I will definitely be grateful 🥺

Should I drop location in DM? 😏

God is our sustainer, things are too expensive. My prayer for those paying school fees and house rents.

Since from the beginning, people have been going through a lot. Hardship did not start today, or are you a baby?
The cure to hardship has never changed, get a job, discipline yourself, that's all.
Don't go and be getting pregnant or getting peoples daughter pregnant anyhow.
It wasn't easy for our parents and things have not really changed much.
Be contented, don't allow people living flashy life make you feel you're suffering.
Can you do what they are doing? Can you do yahoo, kidnapping, etc.
Thank God for your life ooo, before it gets taken from you.
A Nigerian like you with one head is busy building refinery in another country, yet, you're still busy complaining of hardship.
Don't find something doing, continue waiting for hardship to disappear.
Some people are pushing wheelbarrow and going home with N5000 daily after eating.
Continue wailing , lazy youths

That's why whenever I see moderators banning people that speaks the truth about APC and their empty promises, I begin to ask myself if am the only one praying for a better Nigeria ....
Increasing inflation rate from 30% to 900%...
Anyway if one should talk now , Mods here will begin to get wet to ban anyhow ....lols 😂 😂 😂

one thing i love about nigerians is that they think everthing is politics and keep asking the same question they have been asking since 1960

does chatinent think Nigerians have seen good governance since 1960 from our so called educated elites

Nigeria have not been better, poverty was transferred year to year

Many nigerians have not seen good road or electricity in their community since 1960

more than half of the country is in poverty while few living in the major cities live good lives

arent you seeing beggars all over the place, drive a nice car and from your house to your destination everyone is begging you as if you are a celeb

Nigeria has been bad, majority of wealthy people here are all close to govt, they built nothing or created anything

how are nigerians coping? they are coping, they are used to poverty, so they will cope

with all the schooling and education...nothing works in nigeria except if you are close to govt or doing eye service for them

I JUST DEY REASON MY LIFE THIS MORNING
FINISHED SERVING IN MARCH MY PPA ALLOWED ME TO GO IN JUNE
STARTED A JOB DURING THE INTERVIEW I THOUGHT I WILL GET A BETTER ROLE BUT I STARTED ON THE 1ST AND NOW I AM A SALES GUY FOR A B2B SaaS PRODUCT
CANT COMPLAIN JUST TO PUT MY HEAD DOWN AND WORK REALLY HARD AND ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE
STILL LOOKING FOR SIDE HUSTLES I CAN START LEARNING OR DOING BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE TIME TO SAVE BUT TO INVEST IN EITHER KNOWLWDGE OR A BUSINESS
PHOTOGRAPHY? VIDEO EDITING? WRITING BOOKS ON POLITICS, LEADERSHIP AND HISTORY AND SOCIETY BECAUSE I CAN TALK ABOUT THIS THINGS FOR HOURS WITHOU GETTING TIRED OR WHAT EVER TIME WILL TELL
FOR NOW ITS JUST TO KEEP BEING A HUSTLER

Vote APC out, stop covering their mess. It will get worse!

Money is actually flowing in, but before you know it, it is gone. Naira has totally lost all it's value. The kind of money I could easily use to buy car or build house 10 years ago, I can only use it to feed my family now. Gone are those days when 1 million naira can take you to places. Not again

No time to check time.

So Hausas killed two yoruba Muslims in Ibadan yesterday, and nobody is talking about it

Hmmmm. Honestly, I just pray there is light at the tunnel for Nigeria and everyone. It is really not easy. Well, as per the question, I alphabetical also started learning some soft stills to build up my CV
