At this point, it's so scary because the cost of living wants to kill the living. The state of the economy is not funny and everyone is feeling the heat someone even said children still in the womb know about the economic situation and are feeling the heat too which although is funny but still true.
The cost of living in my area has become evenly rigid and as it stands going to a traders shop to purchase goods they want to first confirm if one is not buying on credit before they smile else you will never see a glow on their faces it's even worse now that money is not evenly in circulation, both private and public sectors are yet to start paying a reasonable amount of wages and even bad that the prices of goods are yet to drop in prices. You go to the market today it's a different price for tomorrow and you wonder if these products have wings to fly. 😂😂 it's not even funny but what can we do both the government and traders are making things difficult for we the masses yet we have no choice than to still buy else we perish cause of hunger this if how the cost of living has been over here but it is well and honestly am in absolute support with the individual that said cost of living wants to kill the living. 🥹
Currently, I still depend on my parents for my feeding as I don't have the capacity to sponsor myself at the moment but trust me being in school requires me to spend as sometimes I get items that are almost finished in the house before reaching out to my family although not a big amount of money but then I pay for transport through and fro going to school. Because of the good road from my house to school and seeing that I don't also live far away, my transport fair is still flexible making me spend less.
Although some locations determine how much a particular goods would be sold at comparing south and north. I live in the north ( Kaduna State) while I have relatives in the south like Lagos state and the rest. Prices differ a lot and from what I have seen it is cheaper to live in the North compared to the east and south. But then comparing the stress of packing and starting life a new I will advise that everyone one manages as it is a general issue except when it has to do with security or transfer from work.
Lastly, people are much more in pain because of the less earnings so I believe that once our earnings increases paying for goods we need won't be an issue to us so people are advised to at least double their income stream.
