See The Top 10 Things Nigerians Spend Their Money On

Our needs in life are always reflected in our every day expenses. You spend your money on what you regard as important. The small things we spend money on are however the ones that make the most dent on our finances because they tend to come as daily, weekly or monthly expenses. Below are the top ten things Nigerians spend their money on that could be affecting their finances without them even knowing. This is based on Nairametrics research. 1. Airtime So many people go through recharge card like its water. I have a friend who claims she doesn’t spend much on airtime because she buys the N100 cards. Between you and me though, she buys at least 6 N100 cards a day. Airtime is top on the list because it’s something people purchase daily (except maybe those who buy larger units, they buy airtime like every two to three days). 2. Internet subscription It’s very rare to see someone these days who is not on social media and it all boils down to internet subscription. The craze for Facebook, twitter, Instagram, and other platforms has amplified recently. You hardly see anyone without a smart phone or without internet subscription. Even secondary school students now have to do their homework on line causing parents to subscribe for their computers at home. Network providers make it all the more tempting by providing data plans that are easily affordable for everyone. 3. Cable subscription We’d blame this on the ladies for their love of Telemundo and ZeeWorld but the guys are up the same alley with them for their love of sports and music (not to say there aren’t guys who watch soaps or ladies who watch sports; they just aren’t that common). Every other month, Nigerians spend money on cable subscription so they don’t miss out on their favorite shows. It’s become much of a habit; they rarely notice its impact on their finances. 4. “NEPA” bills Whether you are on the pre-paid plan or the post-paid plan, bottom line is that every Nigerian pays for NEPA bills (even those who don’t get to enjoy the power supply). A lot of people complain that the money they pay is not commiserate with the power they are supplied. Just last week, someone was complaining at a bar, that they hadn’t had light for 3 out of 4 weeks but were still charged very high with no consideration to those 3 weeks. 5. Fuel If it’s not for your car then it’s for your generator but Nigerians spend money on fuel daily resulting in fuel stations stationed almost at every turn. Even the black market thrives especially for bikes and keke na pepe. 6. T-fare Commuting within the city is another way Nigerians spend money. For those who don’t own a car, you have to pay for a bus, taxi, and bike or ‘keke na pepe’ to take you to and fro anywhere; school, church, market, work, out of town. Car owners are not exactly free of this since they need to buy fuel/gas for their cars. 7. Gas We’d say kerosene but you’ll agree with me that more people use gas cookers than they use stoves or firewood these days. Almost every household spends money on gas. 8. Water People buy water everyday be it sachet water (pure water), bottle water or bore-hole water. It seems like nothing but what you don’t know is that all those N10 or N100 you spend several times a day actually adds up. 9. Soft drinks This is common practice. People buy soft drinks everywhere; while stuck in traffic, at a park waiting for your bus to get filled, at schools, at hospitals, in a restaurant, even at your work place. Vendors happen to be everywhere and you can’t help but buy with the usual excuse of ‘I really need something cold to drink’. While it’s not good for your pocket, you should consider the fact that it’s not good for your health either. 10. Snacks This goes without saying. Snacks are an accomplice to soft drinks. they almost always go hand in hand but the excuse for snacks is either ‘I’ve not had anything to eat yet’ or ‘I’m too busy to cook an actual meal’ While all these seem like necessities, it will be best if you apply caution. Work them into your budget and avoid impulsive spending at all cost. What did we miss?

Popular 9jagold Crashed Just like MMM (read details)

“Hello all 9jagold members.This is a very serious issue that need to be address fast. Any form of market exist because people buy and people sell daily. If people stop buying on a market, the market will not exist. I am very disappointed in some of our member who are fleeing from 9jagold because they are afraid of December. Out of 7000 plus members that were paid  last week,  over 5000 members have choosed not to participate and buy again because DECEMBER is near. I called some of our big members in this category,  they are all saying that they are no more buying because DECEMBER  is near and 9jagold is TOO OLD and they already have New alternative like alartcoins or goldx some even said their friends have stopped buying since OCTOBER. If almost every people do not buy, that means 9jagold  will be irrelevant. Nothing is going to happen to 9jagold,  if we stop this superstitious belief. And also some people that are complaining in the group are from other cloned platform just to destabilize the platform and our members also fell for the bait by also complaining before the end of 4 working days, all prospect buyers believe we are in crisis  because of what they are seeing in the group. Units were reversed last week and I told everyone that if your unit was reversed that means you automatically bought units this week, which means you have to wait for  4 working days,  but they all come here to complain that THEY HAVE NOT BEEN PAID FOR TWO WEEKS.  Some of our former wholesalers are the one encouraging people to  join the  new alternative website, that is why it was easy to convince most of 9jagold members to stop participating in 9jagold and  join the cloned  website because they were MUTUALLY ATTACHED WITH THEM BUT NOT WITH 9JAGOLD ITSELF. And also the support number did not left the group intentionally,  The WhatsApp crashed,  that is why it shows left automatically and at the same time in all groups. If we do not stop panicking and running away because of November and December superstition. 9jagold market will loose it buying aspect totally,  which means automatic failure because a market can not function without people buying. Please nothing will happen to 9jagold, if we all keep calm and control ourselves. I believe the future will be bright. Odeniyi Adekunle  CEO 9JAGOLD”
