RE: Hive Naija Weekend Engagement #30 - "Money"

in Speak Peace2 years ago

Money is relative with too many factors to consider especially in Nigeria and the most important factor is LOCATION.

I have lived in delta state, edo state, and Lagos state, and living a healthy and normal life financially differs but one common thing is that no matter where we are money is never enough...

Someone can be so broke that he needs 5000 nairas to survive, the person that has 5000 would need 100,000 to balance a debt, the person that had 100,000 will need 1M to complete a contract who had 1M will need 100M to buy election form and the cycle goes ok and on.

So for the question

How Much Money Is Enough for a Nigerian to live a Completely Healthy/Normal life

No amount of money can ever be enough the higher one's net worth the higher the ex penses.I won’t say no one has a completely healthy and normal life but we just try to live by everyday and manage whatever we have.

What is your ideal salary you wish to get every month?
I will try to be realistic answering this so i would say 500,000 naira minimum.. our tech bros and sis earn this every other month so it is very possible.

You are right, problem are according to levels
Wahala no dey finish

At allll

Yes ooo
If not corruption for reduce for the country
People will stop stealing

Corruption has been the mother of the day to many. This means stealing cannot stop.

Yes oo
It's well tho

People take money
And don't want others to take too

Those who don't want others to take are the selfish type. It suppose to be chop and I chop

Haha😂😂😂 oga you be like politicians o

Na so people be. They no want people to get instead want all by themselves.

Abi..it is not only limited to our politicians alone, what about out Class captain, or HOC or class governor up to SUG president sef..

😂😂😂😂😂 comrade is here

and the most important factor is LOCATION.

This is so true Esther, you will see parents spending thousands of naira on school fees in Lagos state but go to the East or other part with the same school standard and spend less.

Location is a sensitive factor to look into for interims of food stuff too and transportation

I don't why prices of things cannot just be the same everywhere are we not one nigeria🙄

Smiles...this statement is a deeper thought 🤔 but then there is a point on this...we are one Ngeria but some states are just so horrible to be...one would be literally hustling for landlords and school owners without any savings.

Thete is nothing like one NIGERIA again oo... We are just Nigerian and we're formally one but with what the politicians and the government are doing, everything is becoming blurred...

We are one Nigeria but not one location and not one mind likewise not one method of receiving salary.

The cost of living in Lagos State is just on the high side when compared to some major areas. But even now, the cost of living has increase a lot just because of the Yahoo boys. They have made things so tough.

Yahoo boys are now one of the important economic elements in our nation now ehn..

They are the biggest boys in town. Everything is going ok the high side just because of them.

Yes...on the high side.
now if you wan get babe, ask am whether na yahoo boy be her former partner if yes, no go area..😂

Ahahahahah....you are extremely correct. They don spoil everything for us. That babe go Barb your hair if care is not taken. This is why you must run for your life

This is very true though. That is one of the very reasons why I might be staying put here in Ibadan.. that Lagos ehn I don't just like it. I am not saying there ain't money there but for settling down Lagos is a NO.

Make una continue to run away from Lagos😃😃

We die here😜

We go stay inside being it cost effective or not.

That is you o, The thing is if it is to work or get some dough, I can do that in Lagos
But to build a family and house, I do feel fo that for lagos o. I like rest of mind.

The high cost of staying in Lagos is just too much. We here are just managing it for sure.

You are right. When you have more, you have more debt to settle and when you have little, you have little debt to settle.

Someone can be so broke that he needs 5000 nairas to survive, the person that has 5000 would need 100,000 to balance a debt, the person that had 100,000 will need 1M to complete a contract who had 1M will need 100M to buy election form and the cycle goes ok and on.

Its the circle of lifeeee..

The circle of life in terms of money is just too much and what we would not run away from.
