Luxury lifestyle with 100k?

How low can we lower the bar?

100k cannot afford anyone a luxurious lifestyle in Nigeria except you mean 100k dollars. Simple.

When you compare with foreign countries like the US, remember they have a social security system and also remember they have access to credit. With a credit card and good financial management and earning 400k equivalent in dollars, you can be seen to be living a good life. In Nigeria earning 100k, I struggle to see how you can even claim to live an average life HOWEVER this is dependent on the city you live in.

Nigeria economy is the best in Africa


nigeria has the biggest economy because of the size of the GDP that doesn't translate it having the best economy from your end of reasoning. For you to know a little of how best an economy can be you can look at many factors one could be GDP per person, if you compare that of Nigeria to its contemporaries in the continent you would be shocked at the statistics. Another is how much of employment that economy can absolve, statistics on Nigerian unemployment rates is nothing to write about in comparison to countries with the least unemployment rates in Africa. Though there are a lot going on for the country that doesn't translate to the boasting because data currently doesn't support that, I wish it does.

YOU MAY AGREE OR DISAGREE.

A 100K monthly salary earner in Nigeria is better than a 400K monthly salary earner in the United States.

The luxury lifestyles some of us live here with 100K, cannot sustain us a day over there. We can’t try such in US and save a dim.

Some of our annual rent here is weekly/ monthly rent over there. Can you pay over 100K naira monthly house rent with 400K monthly salary here in Nigeria? You can’t do that, but you don’t have a choice over there. You pay or kicked out of the house.

Some of our people over there are becoming wiser now. They don’t mind sleeping on the streets, work for at least 5-10yrs, move back to Nigeria with their savings. You cannot survive with 100M living comfortably a year over there. Tax go finish you up. But you can live large with 100M for 5yrs or more here in Nigeria depends on your lifestyles tho.

You don’t pay unnecessary tax here. But in foreign countries you pay almost everything.
In naija you can own 10 cars..not in the United States because you pay for packing space for each car. You get the point now?

Some of our people in diaspora, once they earn $10K in a month or so, depends on the job, they’d send $9K down to their Nigeria account and keep $1K for their upkeep. Some would buy lands and build houses for rent or some other businesses.
If you don’t do that, you’d work all your life and come back with nothing. Those of you on this method are wise. But becareful of the people you send your money to here. Trust no one! Get a trustworthy lawyer involved.

U can make unnecessary noise or play loud music here. You can’t try such over there and not find yourself in police cell.

So you see….We are privileged here. We only need to get bad political leaders off the way. By getting involved in politics, national, state, LGA and community affairs. That’s how American youth you admire, do.

They don’t just fold hands, wailing and waiting for a miracle. They debate, disagree, challenge, involved and create. You get the point now?

From ur write up you can tell u are still a child and have no experience.
Sleeping on the street because you want to save money.

Don’t make me laugh.


U cannot compare x and y

2 different things

Also u obviously don’t understand taxation and taxing %

You yourself don't understand what you're saying.

You got no credible points.

If I'm in The US to hustle, why will I want to live large there?

The quality life, no bandits, no power failure, no Boko Haram, no food scarcity, no university strike and other good things are the reasons why people run from your Naija.

Be wise!

You're not been practical and realistic. No one pays $800 for a month in US. Or do you mean a week? Nowhere will they pay a staff $800 (400k) a month

You are one of the reasons why it is doomed.
The difference between the rich and the poor is too much.
Corruption in the government is too much.
