A Nairalander's Monthly Contribution: Look How My Isusu Paid Me With Foodstuffs by BossGerald: 5:15am On Dec 16, 2022 |
Isusu as its widely called here, is a form of daily,weekly or monthly contribution paid into an account periodically till the end of a specific period of time, basically month or year. This particular one isn't the regular type where the accumulated money is shared, rather the money is gathered from multiple persons and used to get food stuff in large quantity then shared between the participants. Pros 1. Cheap: food stuffs when purchased in wholesale always come with reduced prices, that means you spend less for more. 2.time saver: to people like myself who doesn't like do grocery shopping themselves ...the purchasing is made by few other participants, you just go and collect your share jejely and go home 3. Lasts long: thus depends on the money contributed, the larger the money, the larger the goods and the longer the time lasted I only got back from school and saw these foodstuffs my brother's wife got from her monthly contribution, she'sa nairalnder but i told her I'd do it on her behalf , to be honest, the food items are very good for the money and it's best recommended for married and family men and women . Atleast you have 3months from January next year not to worry about food stuffs. Can you guess how much the monthly isusu contribution was?? Location: onitsha Cc.

BossGerald: That looks like #100k worth of foodstuff. Even if the combined Isusu bought a container-load of foodstuff you probably will be hard pressed for a 30% markdown. Let's say the contribution period was 3 months or so with weekly contribution I would estimate somewhere about #4k a week contributions for a 3 month period. 4 Likes 1 Share |

mariahAngel: In principle they don't . Everyone eats rice(presumably) so rice is included. Fish, canned tomatoes and such, all these are ubiquitous food-stuff, shared by (most) everyone. So in principle there is no pre-arrangement, whatever you see, you take. 20 Likes 1 Share |

Osusu or thrift contribution without wholesale buying at the end to help significantly lower average cost is just sukuk or 0% interest saving. Nice idea. 8 Likes 1 Share |
