izzou:Lol... It's really surprising tho. Na person pikin wey don chop belleful go dey think about compact and other luxuries |

Theflint1: Is it truly unlimited or is there some fair use bs clause? Also sharing isp with neighbours can be.... Iffy. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Emaprince: 4:11pm On Feb 09 |
izzou:black tax 235k you no well. But seriously there are certain situations that will come up and gulp more than that amount from black tax. It depends on who that person is and what the problem is. This isn't about being wealthy. It's about acknowledging it's your responsibility...and in such situation, you will be one of the first in line to be reached out to. And due to the recent realities, it will pain you that the money you used to comfortably survive on can no longer shoulder these responsibilities easily like in the past when such black tax might have been around 50k instead of 235k... as a result of inflation. 1 Like |

Theflint1:it's not pay as you go like MTN and likes and their data isnt rolled over incase of expiration before using it all.. so it makes no sense that I won't be getting maximum use of it.. I get like 16hrs light here average per day.. and I don't have gen, my era of gen has passed I believe.. Starlink is best enjoyed when it's on a standby 24/7 light.. What you mean by 6 months tops by the way? |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Emaprince: 4:14pm On Feb 09 |
Jodera:You buy GOTV This is where cut your coat come in. But for some one who was once easily subbing DSTV and suddenly couldn't afford it due to high cost of thing, it means surviving on 600k is now tough. That's prospers point. 1 Like |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by izzou(m): 4:14pm On Feb 09 |
Emaprince: This same analogy goes for everyone, including Otedola. What he could do with 1 billion last 2 years, cannot be done today. 600k can take care of a family in Lagos, Abuja, PH, Maiduguri and anywhere in Nigeria, depending on how they cut their coat. I really don't see the need to agree, and then draw up a list to disagree. There's a reason the "CUT YOUR COAT" is there. |

Jodera: Only rich kids take snacks to school ? I don't agree o; even kids who attend public schools still take bobo juice and biscuit to school along with their lunch. If u don't a child snack do u want him to beg from his mates? mobile internet means the normal data u subscribe to like Smile, Ntel, swift and the likes which u make use of anytime u are at home. U use for ur Smart TV, office work u brought home or personal surfing of the internet. Except u are saying u don't owe urself internet connectivity while in ur own home. Please point out more luxuries in the list 1 Like |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 4:18pm On Feb 09 |
Theflint1: Nobody has really been able to prove anything on the list is luxury aside DSTV. Even the DSTV, if u are a football lover u may end up spending so much data in a month on streaming matches & downloading videos than u will actually spend if u sub DSTV |

GloriousGbola:Sharing with neighbours is somehow, but if they're reasonable people it makes sense, so far I don't know of any fair use thing with it...a friend of mine that's a heavy user, has shown me daily use stat of up to 1TB, and there was no throttling or anything. There's fair use clause, but that's for people in need of extreme speeds, talking like downloads of up to say 500mb/s or even more, after which it falls back to regular levels...when I have serious downloads, games or movies, the 100-200mb/s speed is more than sufficient, and there's nothing like keeping downloads for middle of the night, you can do heavy downloads round the clock. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Theflint1:My uncle have one of his neighbours he normally tips for him to do night plan and download films for his kids. And with just 200#, the guy download films 480p, and the 200# will yield like 5-7 films, depending. Now this kids watch the downloaded films during the weekend and he does it like twice a week(sometimes once a week sef). It surely means for a month he's spending #1600 for 20-28 collections of films. Tell me why these kids will lack weekend films in the laptop and tell me why this Man isn't prudent enough? I'm not saying every parents must do this, just showing you that there are ways to cut down on this Gotv/DStv stuff for kids. |

BlueRayDick:That's why i didn't have issues with the black tax because that's purely confidential IMO 15k is way too small, dstv is never a value for money |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by GloriousGbola: 4:23pm On Feb 09 |
Theflint1: The reason I worry about sharing is if your neighbor is doing dodgy stuff. You are all on the same ip. Like one time I was helping a friend update his pc and next thing I found pictures and files that were definitely yahoo boy material. He had lent his laptop to his junior brother doing NYSC. He did not even know the files were there. Now imagine if that guy was a victim of those naija police nepa official home invasion. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Jodera: 4:26pm On Feb 09 |
Emaprince: Subbing DStv is luxury. When they say cut your coat according to your coat, it simply means cut down on Luxuries. Nobody go die if dem no sub DStv sef whether compact or not are there are different forms of entertainment. Prosper case of 600k would be valid if the 600k can't take care of NECESSITIES of the family again or it'll be very difficult to take of the necessities no matter the cut. But If it can, then Cut it. And that's what most families in Nigeria are doing (Which is Iz.zou point so far) |

GloriousGbola:lol, averag naija police burst no get time for ISP checks, those hungry ones na money Dem dey find Na high level cyber crime like hushpupi-esque kinda crime that'd require all those ISP checks.. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 4:28pm On Feb 09 |
iamoyindamola: That's why I was asking for other luxurious items on the list cos if we knock off the N14k for DSTV we all agreed as luxury, we can always add it to the N15k black tax to make N30k (if we add extra 1k to it). So to a large extent his list is still reasonable. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Jodera: 4:32pm On Feb 09 |
Realmrsean:Owing salary is out of the equation bro, we're talking of ideal situation like you getting 600k monthly. My point is that even with the side gigs, he won't meet up 600k. There are sometimes the money might be delayed or sort but once it comes, he'll settle everything. But the important point is that the basic necessities of the family including medical necessity (like little illness or injury) he's able to provide for it. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Theflint1(m): 4:32pm On Feb 09 |
Realmrsean:You currently spend 160K on data per month, in the next 6 months, you'd have spent 960K. if you choose to go Starlink, last I saw, it goes for 420-440K, let's say 440K. 440K (starlink) + 60K (installation) + 228K (6 months subscription) + 39K (30K for 200GB mtn plan + 1.5K topoff monthly for rollover) = 767K for 6 months. The MTN plan is for when you need to step out, or when NEPA takes light. 16hrs per day na enjoyment o. 1 Like |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Jodera: 4:36pm On Feb 09 |
CAPdan21:Gbammm!!! That's my point oo and I believe that with 600k, a family man would be able to do all these things especially if you buy things in bulk. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by BlueRayDick: 4:38pm On Feb 09 |
iamoyindamola: At least a family of four(father, mother and 2 kids) |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Realmrsean: 4:38pm On Feb 09 |

Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by izzou(m): 4:48pm On Feb 09 |
65k a month for rent because you maybe, you live in Ogba and work in Ikeja But someone can still pay 35k a month, and live in Alagbole, which is still close to Ogba and Ikeja. People still live in Badagry and Agbara and pay 350k a year, and are earning 1 million sef. Let us just pretend that we are cutting our coat, by living in Surulere and Yaba. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Jodera: 4:48pm On Feb 09 |
BlueRayDick:The bolded, I see it as something new gen z upbringing sha. In our family we don't do it and even while growing up, I nor my siblings weren't exposed to such sha and we didn't see any big deal in that. But no matter how we want to look at it, it's still luxury. It's just one of those luxury instilled as necessity by most parents. Just as some people can't do without having/subbing DStv in their home because they think it's necessity. As for the others, aside personal surfing which I use on my phone, most of the others is just once in a while and it's not most families that have this home internet sef. Average Nigerian family man doesn't have smile or swift at home in this our obodo naija. As for Smart TV... Lol, that's really luxury. Except one have it before cos he's once Rich, what would make a family man earning like let's say 200k have smart TV when he can buy normal wall Lcd TV? Na egbons full here oo |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Jodera: 4:52pm On Feb 09 |
Theflint1:Well, the thing is that a Nigerian family man can still run his family with 600k. He just needs to cut his cloth according to his coat. Make we remember say na naija we dey oo, no be Yankee |
