It's very true that the cost of living is another thing entirely and it quiet unexplainable, infact if I were asked how it went from manageable to this bad I would say it all happened overnight and to us it was the kind of economy that would come back to normal again but it's infact getting worse with no brighter days foreseen coming, and it breaks our heart to see that even at the center of everything the price of things is getting high.
I could remember at the ending of last year when the price of Hive started getting low and we were all saying that it would shot up before December, we all watched to see but it even got worse and for some of us that have earlier on made Hive our only source of income because we were balanced and comfortable with what we were earning, we were the ones that it hit really hard, we didn't actually have anywhere to fall back to so we became stranded but as we saw that it wasn't getting any better we had to learn fast and the hard way actually, that was when we had to look for a side hustle or start using our handwork.
I had to use the strategy of working hard, spending less and saving more plus most atimes I wasn't just saving cash but Hives, it wasn't easy at first and it still isn't easy now but you already know what we Nigerias are made up of, we were born to adjust and manage into situations that always seems impossible, as for the aspect of getting help we all get help from people who are stable than us not to mention the fact that sometimes you don't even have to be stable to render help, so I wasn't exempted from receiving help.
And as for the fact that I am a student the help I need is always ×100, I had to start selling stuffs as a student to meet up with all these small needs that usually comes, but as for the savings aspect I had to drive a way to start saving monthly with a group of people and so far that's my only saving pattern.
It's my pleasure having you here, I hope you enjoyed your stay here.
