Good day guys, I am actually taking a survey and I’m using Nairaland since it represents the view of the average Nigerian.

As for me I spend 30-25% of my monthly income on feeding only; maybe because I’m a bachelor and I do not cook.


How many percent of your income do you allocate for feeding in a month

There is no particular percentage that can be used,it depends on how much you earn.

Someone earning 100k can decide to use 25% of his earning. But someone earning 1m cannot use 25%,that is too much for feeding. What of someone earning 30k ,will 25% feed him a month?

It all depends on how much you earn. One person 5% for feeding can be too much for feeding,while another person's 50% can't even feed him for a week.
You are assuming that someone who earns 1M every month will be eating the same stone rice as someone who earns 100K. As income increases, so does taste. They may both end up spending the same percentage on feeding.

How many percent of your income do you allocate for feeding in a month
It depends on your income and location.

Abuja and Port Harcourt are expensive.

North and West like Oyo are moderately cheaper.

If you earn #20 000 - #30 000 monthly.

Then allocating 40- 60% is necessary.

How many percent of your income do you allocate for feeding in a month
Asking for percentage but leaving out the actual monthly income wouldn't give you perfect picture. Someone might be spending 30% of 400k while another family might be spending 80% of 100k monthly income
Re: How Many Percent Of Your Income Do You Allocate For Feeding In A Month? by izubext007: 12:22pm On Dec 25, 2020
I use 80% @ of 50k salary. because buhari and his people are killing farmers, and farm produce are now xpensive.
Re: How Many Percent Of Your Income Do You Allocate For Feeding In A Month? by Nobody: 12:23pm On Dec 25, 2020
Not everyone earn fixed salary.

this question has nothing on Business men/women

This question solely depends on how much you earn monthly.

Percentage allocation for feeding is not realistic.
How much on the average is more practical.
I spend an average of 38000 monthly on feeding (just me, not married) because I don't cook.
That's a one-digit percentage of my monthly earning.
To someone else, that amount can be a very insignificant percentage while it'll can be a reasonable percentage to others.

I digress. Men keep complaining that their children only love their mothers. Treat your wife with love and your children will adore you. The way to a man's heart is se.x and food, the way to your children's hearts is the happiness and peace of their mother.

How they watched you treat their mother is EXACTLY how they will treat you when they are all grown.

Nothing to allocate. Most Nigerians can’t survive with their income. How can a family of 6 making 30k a month survive. All the money goes to food then start borrowing and buying food on credit to survive for the remaining days of the month
