Myself and my husband are planning to retire to nigeria and we have been planning towards that. Please keep them coming I am enjoying them. Your videos made me realize relocating back is not as bad as people makes it seem. Great job sis.

    That seems to be a very good monthly budget for you and your family. Here in the US, we would gladly rejoice over a $300 monthly budget but as you shared the cost of living is very different in Western and European countries. It's always smart to include for miscellaneous items in your budget. Rice and different types of beans are always a good staple to help stretch family means. Different types of inexpensive pasta are good to stretch meals too. Dyna, the word Frugal should be your new best friend now that you're back in Nigeria.
    My advice to everyone around the world is to say that in these uncertain and in these unstable financial times, don't waste money on unnecessary expenses. Do treat yourself occasionally to remain sane but became a frugal person and save if you are able to save. In some western countries, eating out every day for lunch and dinner can be wasteful. Budget for everything you spend. If we all budget to live below our previous monthly spending from several years ago, we'll survive this worldwide financial and economic downturn.

    My husband is abroad too and I’m here with our 3kids and a nanny. I’m finding it difficult to understand that 500k finishes before the month ends. Majorly the money goes on food/groceries. When I buy fuel from filling station it is 80k for a month but I spend more when I have to do black market. The miscellaneous expenses be doing it’s own too. Medicines we don’t plan for. Repairs that come up unexpectedly etc in-fact it’s just crazy. We just have to keep living. The Lord is our strength.

    Just to know - A friend of mine who lives in Port Harcourt told me that the medical care in private hospitals is high (obviously). But what baffles me is that she said you now have to pay for everything. Consultation from doctor, scans, treatment, food, etc, at the hospital. If you get sick, everything must be paid for. Otherwise you will not see a doctor... is this true?

    If you earn a foreign currency, living in Ghana or Nigeria is very bearable, Nigeria even more so because things seem very affordable compared to Ghana. The key is to earn in a foreign currency and you’ll be better off than earning in your local currency.

      @ Ghana is very expensive but still peaceful and enjoyable to live. No civil unrest and is safe for natives and foreigners alike. Good vibes despite its issues. So I wouldn’t describe it as shit but it has seen better days. Part of the issue is foreigners driving up prices when they travel in. Jumping online saying how ‘cheap’ everything is, not taking into consideration the exchange rate.

      Running water/tap water is free once you have a borehole system..all you have to do is pump water with your pumping machine from the ground and it's stored in water tanks. But in some states they pay for water to water corporation but it's not a lot of money

    So how are millions of Nigerians on minimum wage suppose to live then if most things on this list is more than 70k, an entire salary in Nigeria?😅Not funny!! ln western world,they use the price of all these things to determine the minimim wage,the wage must be able to afford these things.Unlike in Nigeria where the wages is determine by what the government feels like..Japa or ljapa is actually an urhobo language,there is an area in warri called ljapa.There is also an area in southern part of ondo state called japa as well..l was surprised you went for SUV,l said it in that video...l would expect more Nigerians to be looking at cng or smaller engine cars now..Thank you.❤

Use meter first pump full task lemme see how much it will cost you then use fuel main you did water doesn’t last up to a month o😂 , you pump water like twice or even 3 times monthly, in ur private house maybe once depending on how u use in a flat 2-3times monthly, with light it cheaper with fuel 😂😂 5litters will give you half tanker 😂

      You have to be adaptable. It is one thing I noticed Nigerians don't do well.
      They call it cutting your coat according to your size.
      The pot of soup has to change it cannot have the same ingredients but will still be delicious. The brand names have to change to alternatives , where and how you shop has to change.instead of Wuse 2, Kado fish market or orange market will do.
      If everyone is in the same position why not buy bulk within the family and/or neighbours or even church then divide it?
      Even car pooling to share the cost of fuel?
      How much are people growing at home of the ingredients they buy every week? This situation of inflatio6and fuel hikes have been a reality for well over a year. How many farmers have Nigerians approached to grow fresh produce instead of the one with the profit markup at the market?
      Nigerians must adapt and respond with new money saving strategies. They need to approach things differently. I suspect it is because they don't want people to know they would like to save money, even tnough everyone wants to save money. It might be a pride thing for some, I'm not sure.
