Phone bills for 2 = $100
Home internet/Cable = $200
Groceries = $300
Auto Insurance = $200
Utilities = $400 avg (elec/ water/ gas heat in the winter)
Daycare x 2 = $0
Fuel = $160
Lawn Care = $100
Home insurance = $200

Total is $5,660. doesn't include eating out and household maintenance expenses (cleaners, dry cleaning etc, health insurance, clothing, meals during the day at work, etc. etc.)

Location, big city Northeast USA.

The house price living along seems relatively high outside of NY and CA. Is this for a one bedroom?

Also, you mentioned you are in biomed. Did you have to get student loans, or have many years of experience in your field?

Truly it doesn't make sense to just say somewhere in United states

It makes the information completely meaningless. Rent in NYC is far different to Mississippi. Please endeavour to add your state or province, thanks.

I can't disclose my location on social media ni, na Rich people dey buy house NYC. Am in Georgia

Please Which Phone network? I pay $50 on Boost Mobile! cry

If ur in the US, check out Visible. I think they have a plan you can get for $25 a month and it runs on the Verizon network. I would switch but my plan gives me free international data, so when I do personal travel it's been a life saver(getting off a plane) when I can't immediately get local data.

It's a 3 bedroom. House and condo prices have skyrocketed. It's probably on the lower end in those markets for a decent area. Check the comps. Take care.

I no dey like cheating, the guy is quick to write his expenses and also quick to say people back home call to beg for money, but him no tell us how much him dey make

He’s probably making $3k upwards for him to be spending such amounts meanwhile he wan dey yab people wey dey here, some people in naija dey sponsor peeps abroad

I agree that some people in Naija sponsore people abroad. I also don't like calling people beggar but bros you need to live out here to see the real nature of Nigerians back home. Everyone sees you as an atm. People only remember to call or chat you up when they need something. Some will complain that the money is too small.

So I no too blame the guy ooh

Be kind enough to show the people back in Nigeria how much you earn, that way we know if we can beg you for money or not

If you earn $1500 upwards, I think we have a right to ask you for money sir

Geez, this is crazy and funny at the same time.

The bolded is exactly why I quoted the guy initially, to me it seemed he was raising shoulder, even we in naija, we suffer ur fate, everywhere you go, you owe people automatically, I could say yours is better cos it’s probably only on phone they can reach you, in naija here, it’s everywhere you go, it gets worse if you drive a car, way worst if ur car con fine, worsetest part is if nah fine benz, people assume u have 1 billion stacked away that you should be dashing dem but we don’t come online to brag about people asking for funds

Humans would always be humans, we move in the direction of where our belly can be filled, when it can be filled


Then again, you should only give as much as you can, don’t let it hurt you so bad it affects everything else cos problem no dey finish

You guys should stop saying some one is lying because you don't know him personally, respect anyone's post on here every one has different pockets and choice ( even in this Same Nigeria some people service their car every month so what the big deal) and you don't even know the kind of car he use. Because you don't spend one amount every month in Same country doesn't mean another person doesn't spend triple of what you spend.

Laws regarding foreigners living there?

WhyNa:
Location Vietnam

Expenses for one person per month...

1) Accomodation (1 bedroom) - $230

2) Electricity and water - $10-12

3) Everything food including ijekuje- $60 -$80

4) Fuel - I drive a lot - $25 max

5) Internet - $18. I forgot to negotiate internet as part of rent which is the norm here

6) Miscellaneous... more ijekuje and things I don't need -$50

Total -$415

Mind you it all depends on what we wanted in life , I even spend way more in some months, I have always wanted a fit lifestyle that’s why I spend more on fitness, and for the car maintenance fee , the higher the car you use the higher the maintenance fee

[What you are quoting here is totally unbelievable. Please dont lure our unsuspecting people to go and get stranded in a country not in any way better than Nigeria. Vietnam is one of the poorest countries in Asia.

Yes and yes

Life here is super cheap and you can save nothing less than 800 USD per month.

The LOWEST you can earn here is 1200 USD and it's teaching English

2000 aed per month is that for a studio apartment or house sharing please?

I'm hoping to come for few weeks and I think I might rent a house instead of staying in hotel.
