Smart people are using social media to work from home and diversifying their sources of income and this one is here yarning trash. Can an Uber driver in Enugu make up to 300k a month? Or can a make up artists in onitsha make 150k from tying gele? Abeg speak for yourself. If Lagos no favour you, no generalize am abeg 5 Likes |

Its all about being wise about it. Some likes living above their income.. The gist that you should live closer to your office. To be candid, transportation in Lagos is Wow. It takes grace to save. 4 Likes 1 Share |

DoTheNeedful: 70k a month will make you a big boy in most cities in Nigeria Some have built houses with that income. Lagos to me is the most expensive and overrated city in Nigeria. Abuja is far cheaper to live. The best city to live an work is Calabar. If you earn 250k in calabar you can own your own house with ease in 3yrs. 6 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Is This True About People Working In Lagos? by proeast(m): 4:08pm On Aug 11, 2018 |
That's the bitter truth! Many guys have been working for donkey years in Lagos with no achievement. Some will just buy a car to camouflage while the rest goes to eating and paying rent. Even Abuja is still the same except you are connected with politicians one way or the other. I left Lagos back to the East in 2013 and that was one of the best decisions I've taken so far. I don't think I would have achieved what I have now if I had remained in Lagos. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

80% - 90% of those working in Lagos are working for accommodation, transportation, schoo l fees and other unnecessary expenditures with little or nothing to save. Lagos hard my people. 3 Likes |

The post is 90% truthfully truthful about Lagos and what lots of people go through to stay afloat.. Many people with families don't even earn up to 70k per month.. And with the way Lagos is planned that makes most traffic to work a one way thing.. Populace face same way to work and same way coming from work ( no ring road like most state capitals) . Lagos is syn with most people living far away from work station.. Way out .... Start your own biz, start early and grow it ,,,,, but since not everyone will be an entrepreneur, manage , don't complain or relocate to a less populous city or town or village.. 2 Likes 1 Share |

This is very true and correct. I was born and breed in Lag. After my service year, I got a job of 45k and spent 1500 daily for transport to work making it 36k ; woke up early as 5am and I will still be late to work till I stopped that job. A room-self con is about 300k/Annum at mainland area of Lagos. 2 bedroom is 500k+ Na so I run comot for lag 13 Likes |

To some extent, it's true! People still make it in Lagos sha! It's still better for graduate & skill hustlers than to remain in d village earning less than N12k monthly. Finally, Lagos portents opportunities. A graduate earning 30k today may in few year time , earns many times DT 30k 3 Likes |

awelekiti: Tell us one viable idea that can make one own estates in Lagos Those born and bred in Lagos know that making it in Lagos easily was a thing of the past. People in the East see Lagos as a place where people pick money on the floor. When lagosians relocate to east to start business they see us as mad people Many people in the East want to come to Lagos because they believe money is here. What an irony. Nigeria generally not easy like before 1 Like 1 Share |

Teewhy2:Why did you take the matter on the wrong side. Lagos is full of opportunities if you can hustle. Chinese man came to Lagos , he said he can pick money every corner of the street (figuratively) There are people earning 50k and they've built there own house and drive their own cars. So, what works for me may not necessarily work for you. 3 Likes |
