Jega2000:Draw out a budget and spend according to your budget. And if you must date, go for someone with a reasonable income. Don't waste your time dating a liability. There are people who earn between 150k-200k monthly, and they're still surviving. You'll be fine. 205 Likes 13 Shares |

Jega2000: Just cut ur expense....500k is not small money in naija ....just that our leaders are heartless making some expense too high No generator every night ...u won't die If u have kids....DStv subscriptions should be during holidays....they wont die..... If u have a car that u use daily to work that takes as little as 10litres per day ....that's roughly 10-11k per day and 220k per month minus Saturday and Sunday outing and servicing cost....Use public transport ..u won't die... Buy satchet water instead of bottle...or check if ur tap water is drinkable...a friend told me he started taking his tap water when he calculated and found his cost on water was 80k month... 211 Likes 21 Shares |

You are no longer comfortable because your mind has consistently seen that amount and it's demanding to grow beyond that... It's human nature

To some people it is a fortune. To some it is a pittance. What does it matter?? Are you asking to know if you should hustle more? Of course, you should. Are you asking to know if you should be content? Of course, you should be. Are you asking to know if you have arrived? Of course, you haven't. 51 Likes 4 Shares |
