A cleaner in SA that does cleaning of house three times a week that is 16 working days a month gets 4k rands which is about 320k in Nigeria money.
That is what most professor in Nigeria university receives as a salary working for 30 days a month.
The hell fire the bible is talking is this Nigeria..

The house rent she pays for a month is equivalent to what you pay in naija for a year. You shouldn't only focus on the figures, also focus on the economy too. Don't be surprised that someone earning 150k In naija might be very much comfortable than her.

Gee boys go soon dey carry their trade go s.a ..


,but 4k rand to naira -320 k .. it's small oo .

but the one wey sure pass na she dey enjoy better electricity pass the 150k worker in nigeria.

Lol
That amount is punishment to live with in SA.
People who receive that amount and are comfortable are live in house keepers with free food and accommodation.

Decent accommodation starts from R3000 per month. Food R1500. What about data, transport, etc.

If you are in SA and you don't pay rent, within a year you are a millionaire in Nigeria.

So there is money in SA

R4000 is actually ₦400,000 plus. Not ₦330k

Lol u don't know what u are saying.
That woman might be living in a free RDP house and at worse if she's renting..she will be paying 600r...I can tell for free that she has got mouths to feed from that money n it's not enough.

Problem with you Nigerians based in SA is that you like generalizing the rest of SA based on your surroundings.

Chances are that cleaner that you see living in an RDP house in the Gauteng province is saving enough money to build herself a comfortable house in her home province.. I've seen many of them building and renovating their homes in Limpopo.

I personally know a man that's living in a rented single room shack in Gauteng, but still managed to built a seven room house for his family back home in Limpopo that comes with a kitchen, living room, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms with his security guard salary... He also constructed a borehole for his family so that his household can have free water supply... The interior of his house is so beautiful, you'd think that maybe he's a high school teacher... But the company he worked for closed down in 2018 and he was unemployed for about two years while his wife worked as a creche teacher... Yet his family never lacked money to buy essential stuff around the house because he had been saving for years.

He got another job in 2021 as a professional Gardner for this other company and now he's building another five room house that comes with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a living room, and a double garage... He says the house is gonna be reserved for guests whenever they come for a sleepover... He's also made sure to take his two kids to some of the most outstanding public schools in Limpopo.

Why are u having issues with my comments??
Was I opposed to the OP or I was just telling him that even 4000r is a small money.
Abeg carry ur wahala go front o.
U just want to be noticed n u have succeeded.
I wonder why you guys haven’t created ur own forum.

Is 4000rand not a small for a cleaner?

I have no issues with your comments, I'm just telling it like it is.

You're living here in SA, but low-key hate us and always looking for a reason to be gaslighting us on this forum... You think you know us far better than we know ourselves, when you know nothing... On many occasions I saw you bashing us here, but I ignored it... That South African that you see living in an RDP house in Gauteng might be having a house back home that is far better than your family house in Nigeria.

You wonder why we haven't created our own forum while you're living in our country? Nice...😂😂😂

You missed the point ..


The question goes thus ..

Does a person earning 3000-4000R be able to live comfortably well like the gardener you said, does he earn around that range??


This is not about living in a shack house or not...


You too like story...

ruggedtimi:

BandA is not as expensive as u all feel.

20k is enough for the month
