Rich has always been subjective.
But amid the hardship in Nigeria, where a lot of people are complaining about the cost of living, some people still maintain some lifestyles that make them come across as rich.
When you find yourself participating in or able to afford the lifestyles outlined below, you are truly rich in today’s Nigeria.
The 5 things…
Still saving money amid hardship, you appear rich
If you can still afford to put away a certain amount of money for savings consistently, you’re not among those struggling to survive in the current harsh economy.
The trending lingo in town is that of ‘no money’ to be able to afford the basic things of life; having a savings amid the ‘no money’ era gives you a special status in the society.
Never running out of fuel for personal consumption
There are some people who run on generator in their houses non-stop despite the removal of fuel subsidy resulting in the high cost of fuel.
If you find yourself in this category, never running out of fuel, and always running on generator, you are truly an ‘Odogwu’
Still frequenting eateries
With the skyrocketing cost of food prices today, eateries that were relatively costly in the pre-hardship days, have taken notches higher in their prices.
If you are still a regular face in eateries, best believe, the hardship has nothing on you.
You’re not complaining
You go to the mall, and hear of the doubled cost of items, and without blinking an eyelid or expressing the slightest surprise, you whip out your card and pay.
Another instance is other around you are always lamenting how difficult things are for them economically, but you are seated there and cannot relate because life is as comfortable for you as it has ever been. No comment.
An average bottle of champagne is about N100,000, there are some people who go to clubs and buy as many as five bottles per night. You will agree that there is no way such kind of persons are feeling the heat of the economic hardship.
