NAIRA LIFE The Inside Gist: This HR Babe Pays Black Tax Out of Goodwill =.Mv0eb3hy1JuHq8R2vhGSZrJJ0lMof9UkB5dob8yPMrs [This babe’s #NairaLife made me wonder if there’s actually an amount you can earn in Nigeria and be happy. Because how come she’s also affected by inflation?] What she said: “I can afford most of what I want. But am I comfortable? Nope. I don’t think that’s even possible in this country. I want to earn more, and I’m looking to get a foreign-currency paying job, so I can hedge against inflation. For instance, I can’t travel to the UK this year for holiday because I can’t afford it any more. I could afford it in 2020, and I wasn’t earning as much as I do now.” Black tax isn’t letting her rest, too. “My mum is really entitled. I give her a ₦100k monthly allowance and also pay her ₦500k rent, but she’s constantly asking for more money. Sometimes, she sends her bank statements to show she’s broke so I can cough out money. I recently installed solar electricity at her house, bought a generator and bigger TV, but the expenses never end.” [Read her NairaLife here](=.2-14IPB3rCeDgqhY8viEBXriyOsIc9qde98tIyVWHrU) =.0NgWKLAxmN597gKxocKeTbPjP9gE-RvSRLXWdWCzMR4 Seize the opportunity to enjoy a group ticket discount with your friends or colleagues and experience two days of invaluable insights from industry leaders at Moonshot! 👉🏾 Get ₦8,000 off on 2 tickets and ₦20,000 off on 4 tickets when you [get tickets here](=.53N7wP_IAeQW6CuYzkgm2D8EWz8HmZqgtwX-A8b5QRI). *We'll be tweeting answers to this on our Twitter account at noon, so feel free to tweet us your answers with the hashtag [#ZikokoDailyQuiz](#) --> One Story to Read Today Her pastor told her she’d die Yoma* doesn’t subscribe to the Christianity practised in churches, and her reason is due to personal experience.
