SALARY IS NOT ENOUGH

[Mame89]

There are so many challenges that we face in life today by relying on a small salary our lives will be much more difficult. Workers' salaries are always stagnant and never increase in accordance with the price of goods that continue to soar so that at this stage it makes it increasingly difficult for people to keep up with expenses. Workers are made as if they were slaves to make money for the rich, but they never think about how to humanize workers to be in a much better life.

That's why I prefer to open my own business even though the scope is still small because of the freedom to determine the direction. Usually when starting our own business we are more comfortable working and we are also more serious about achieving the ability to earn more money. If we do not dare to get out of other people's work systems, then we will always be their slaves in working.

I've heard people say something like this "If you are born poor it's not your fault because we don't determine where we will be born, but if you die poor it's your fault. Actually, in an era that is very expensive with little income, let alone not daring to leave other people's jobs or not daring to get out of our comfort zone, then we will always be like that and will not develop.

Each of us must be open-minded so that you understand many things, realize that at your age now, don't waste it, realize that this is the beginning of your progress to become a more productive person in the future so that you can change your life in the future.

Starting a business even with a small scope is one way to get out of life's difficulties and get out of other people's work systems so that we can create our own independence. Don't always feel like a loser every day, because this world is not free from tests, there are successes and failures alternately. We still have to be more productive and creative in today's era so that we can achieve financial freedom. Because if you rely on just one income, especially with a small income, it will be difficult to live in an era where you have to use money.

[Cookdata]

In conclusion I am of the view that working for an organization for salary which is not up to half of your productivity in the month is like you giving yourself for slavery and to me is one of the ways the modern world as modernized slavery to be.

Sorry I want to ask you, are you employed or you have a business you do own your own to make this conclusion. There are some professions that is paying some people and the money they make, even if they are to set business for their self, they wouldn't be able to do that because of the money they are making from their jobs, that's why I ask if you have a Job or perhaps a business so we don't mislead people that are doing well in their respective jobs.

If you work in the place where labour is been valued, you will be paid based on the time spent on your job and that's okay, you don't have to over work yourselve. Even if they do, you will be paid for extra time you work for them, so I think it's okay to say that job is enough but then depend on what you earn for a living so you don't take words and swallow it without understanding your own place.

[N.O]

Do you think people are not also learning skills despite that you have observed that they are farming airdrops? I will not disagree with you that q lot of people have ventured into farming of airdrops because of the recent hype and all but I can bet you that most people in Nigeria aren't lazy, there are so many youths with good skills out there waiting for the opportunity to showcase their talents but what has the government done to keep them busy nothing.

What about the number of graduates that are out there looking for job opportunities but the government is not doing anything meaningful to reduce the unemployment rate in the country and you expect people to be going about getting more skills when there is hunger as a result of high rate of inflation in the country may be you should ask the government to create jobs so thqt people will be busy and not have the time to start looking for easy ways.

Right. When people will try unique,they will be best in something and they will be not depend on anybody. Every person of the universe is want to earn more more but he wants to earn money safely and that's why they choose to to the job and when you do the job ,you learn many things and after learning,you make team and you can start your own business. I am not against to the job but one should invest money if he has money because in future all items will be more expensive than today Crpto has bright future and one should join airdrops and bounties because new comer can learn many things from btc talk because that is the best platform of the world where new comers can learn anything.

[Agbamoni]

Low salary is not enough, but high enough salary would be enough, that would be the good thing, we should be trying to get higher salary jobs so that we would live a better life. Yes, it is true that minimum wage doesn't support anything anymore, I have seen a house where six friends live together all on minimum wage, it was a youtube video, and they talked about how they fixed their financial issues by getting together, and they were saving more than ever, like it was a good living condition.

But in reality, living six people together, when you are not even family, is not ideal and people shouldn't be forced into such conditions to have better financial life. I believe that the way out would be making good money which I am trying to do, I am not making a ton of money by any means, but I make enough that I am comfortable, yes I have debts and I have troubles and I am trying to climb back up from all these but at least I do not make very little, so I can survive with this salary for now.

A low salary is not enough but a high salary is also not enough. What we need is to have several income streams. Depending on what salary won't help us to be wealthy. And the reason is that our responsibilities tend to increase as we grow in life. We will have needs and want to increase every day and by day. And even if our salary increases our expenses or necessities will be greater than salary. Now one thing I know full well about salary is that it doesn't increase especially. If one is working in an industry where the salary does not increase exponentially then it will be a big problem with time. As inflation occurs, we don't need to rely on salaries but rather on possible income. These possible incomes might come from our investments, business or skill. But its better than we are in the supply chain so that if inflation keep increasing we will increase our prices too.

In conclusion I am of the view that working for an organization for salary which is not up to half of your productivity in the month is like you giving yourself for slavery and to me is one of the ways the modern world as modernized slavery to be.

While I might agree to the concept you’re postulating in your comment, I must say the word slavery doesn’t apply here. Change the word and you would make more sense of your comment. I’m recent times, we have people who work hard and those who work smart. One helps you to archive your goal with ease and faster while the other might take a great deal of work. It doesn’t make you a slave but, you willingly having to participate in the labor market to be able to fend for yourself and those to whom you’re responsible for.
You ain’t a slave to willful participation in the labor market, your just another laborer, laboring to earn a living.

[Dewi Aries]

Yes, I think we can't lie to the fact that our expenses are much greater than our income, and of course most people also experience the same situation which means they won't care about whatever you experience, meaning that only we ourselves have to change everything in various ways that we think are effective to improve the financial situation, but that doesn't mean you also have to quit your main job, but you have to add another place to be used as another source of income.

This means that improving skills or knowledge is something that must be done, because that way you will have a greater chance of getting income from other types of work or opening your own business in any field that you think is effective to help overcome financial problems in your life in addition to the main job you have, many people have done that

[Mpamaegbu]

Salary is never (and will never) be enough for anyone; no matter how much one is paid at the end of the month. This is why people steal at their places of work, especially in third world countries; so as to meet up their expenses. In advanced or developed countries, the situation isn't same as people can do double or triple jobs. In Africa or underdeveloped countries, it's not so.

There's that urgent need for every breadwinner to have more than one sources of income. It doesn't matter how secured one thinks one's job is or what salary one gets paid. Get a side hustle. It pays.

[adzino]

Yes, it is not enough if you are doing minimum wage jobs. it is going to be really difficult to survive with minimum wage at this current economic condition. I have even seen people working two shifts a day, yet they struggle paying for the bills. More difficult if you are a single person. But yeah, don't just stick to minimum wage jobs. Try to gain some skills that are much needed in the industries. Lets me honest. People that work minimum wage for the rest of their lives are the ones that don't give any effort to up their skills and bring changes on their lives. Learn something new, try hard and you will eventually land a good paying job!

[Mr. Magkaisa]

With the current economic realities on ground it is suicidal for anyone to still depend on salary for survival as the monthly expenditure of the average individual is far above the monthly income of the ordinary citizen's
 With the economic problems of the world we find our self today waiting for a monthly salary is like you shortly your life Spam by two as you will continue to be a slave to your salary and work.
Off recent I have come to the realization that self reliance and acquiring a skill that will fetch you Money at every given point in time is the best and should be encouraged over going to work where you will be paid peanut at the end of the month.
In conclusion I am of the view that working for an organization for salary which is not up to half of your productivity in the month is like you giving yourself for slavery and to me is one of the ways the modern world as modernized slavery to be.

           - There are so many reason on this. we need to weigh every corner.

It will always depend on your conutry of origin plus the academic you attain and the job you have.
being an Attorney will not be enough? or an active and busy doctor?  this jobs can give me a good income and bright future.

If you are from a rich country (first world). where some of them has a high salary even on basic jobs and has a low cost of living.

But if you are living in a country where poor become poorer and rich become richer. And you dont have enough Education attainment to get a good job then it is.
But again! BUT! Digitalization of the world is really good for us. We can do side hustle online by joining campaigns here in cryptocurrency.
also, theres alot of virtual assistance job effer now online.

Just a little advice. be good on waht you are doing. do it hard and once you are good at it! DO IT SMART!

True, everyone can change jobs if they want, I am inclined to think that there are different types of jobs, there is work to get the necessary experience, and more often than not, our earnings in such jobs can be low, and there is work when you will work as a specialist with experience, where you can occupy a good position in the team and get a fairly high salary. And you need to make it a rule for yourself not to go to work that you do not like, no one can force us to do this in the civilized world.

[rimoeee]

I am totally in support of this thread, due to the global crisis and economy downturns of senseless wars it has affected many countries. Salary alone doesn't guarantee financial security at the moment the high cost of commodities and item in recent times makes people diversify to different things. Learning enterpenural skills is now a means to survival.

[uswa56]

But its better than we are in the supply chain so that if inflation keep increasing we will increase our prices too.

You are right, with the existence of several sources of income that we have, this will of course help us in accumulating wealth and will also be able to fulfill all the desires and needs that we need, as time goes by, of course the needs we need will continue to increase, especially we have a responsibility as the head of the family and with the salary we have, of course, it must be really used for things that are indeed useful and do not until we use it for purposes that we don't need.

When inflation occurs, of course, it will be very difficult if you only rely on salaries to meet our needs and I agree with what you said to be able to have other sources of income and if you have skills that can provide income during inflation, of course this will be very good because in these conditions anyone will have difficulty making money and with skills, of course this will be very useful for us in surviving in these inflation conditions.

Learning enterpenural skills is now a means to survival.

Even before now, salary isn't the way to achieving a great financial level but what happened back then is that inflation in general was very minimal and purchasing power was small to nothing and it was very easy to control inflation for years and that's why salaries were okay for parents to make a living without complaining, they buy mortgage house and car on loan and send their children to school and then live a happy life without making any complains.

However, today is different. An average person you are seeing today working has woke into the new financial knowledge where people now see other opportunities and there salaries from their source of income is no longer viable, you can't even save up with your salary and get a decent house and bungalow house, this is why things have to change. If you don't upgrade to the trend and how things are going, you may end up from been average financial person to poor person.

[sarmrakib]

Exactly, They upcoming days are more difficult. Myself really passing hard time, I can't survive what o get from my job. The money is stuck by the rich people. We are modern slave what they think always. On the other hand every product price become increased. But our salary isn’t increasing like this. That's why we are facing the problem. I am really depressed on this system and also stuck with that. I am not getting any opportunity to move from here. So really upset what can i do and what i will do.

There are so many challenges that we face in life today by relying on a small salary our lives will be much more difficult. Workers' salaries are always stagnant and never increase in accordance with the price of goods that continue to soar so that at this stage it makes it increasingly difficult for people to keep up with expenses.

Usually when starting our own business we are more comfortable working and we are also more serious about achieving the ability to earn more money. If we do not dare to get out of other people's work systems, then we will always be their slaves in working.

Its true that if we do not make or established our own business we will be slave for forever. I thinks its more difficult for most of us cause we don’t have enough fund for starting any business. If have we will be on more competition on the market with other business person who are existing on the market for long term.However It's not a big matter but still its better to open our business and we can entrepreneur.It is better from modern slave where rich never think about worker who are always survive with thier family.

[Gadei Blang Gapu]

If it is said that it is not enough, it will definitely not be enough. However, if our monthly salary management can be arranged and carried out with discipline, I am sure it can be done as long as we do not follow the trend too much when the salary is first paid because in 29 days the salary usage period is in sight. For your opinion, looking for additional income, I think it must be attempted even though it will have the effect of less rest.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Even just simply trying out to make that paycheck will really be that enough or something that needs up to be budget or would be that having that kind of division in terms of the expenses and other things
that you do really need up to pay specially on monthly basis. This is where you would be needing up that kind of allocation on basing up on how much you do able to earn. Just like on what everyone is really that trying out to elaborate on here is that economic situations becomes that messy as years passing by. You might be able to see your salary is enough on the past but as the years passing by then it will really be that decreasing out its purchasing power on which its normal. As an individual then it will really be just that a normal approach or actions to take is on how you would really be making your income having do more.
When you are on shortage or struggling on budgeting with your salary then its part of human being common sense and awanress or instinct about on tending to get or look for another job.
We would really be wanting on living a life on which we know that you wont really be able to struggle in the means on buying up food on day to day basis.

That's the problem because every time the price of commodities continues to rise and past salaries are no longer able to keep up with future costs. When we get a small income, problems will arise where every time our needs increase, such as children's education costs, health and other costs. There is no other solution in this condition other than increasing income productivity and staying silent and not trying to get out of the previous zone will make someone trapped in debt. How many people are trapped in problems like this and the reason is because they need money for daily needs with their families so taking out a loan is the last option.

Although this method can be considered wrong, people are forced to do it because of the obligation to meet their living needs. Before all that happens, anyone should be able to prepare an option where they slowly build a small business at home with their family and it can be used to cover daily living expenses and the salary earned at work can be invested in other places such as bitcoin so that finances get better slowly.

[bangjoe]

I think if indeed the salary income from your job below the minimum living expenses in your area will never be enough, but if your income is above a minimum you might need to see your finances, usually people who are never enough they do not manage their finances well , even when you have enough gathering, for people who are brooches it will never be enough, well here is the importance of a financial literacy, you management to manage how to use money properly, because it will determine whether you can suffice or not with your income.

[retreat]

It's easier said than done. Everyone wants to earn more than their monthly salary, but earning a better/additional income is not as easy as what motivators say. Even for most people, maintaining what they have now is already difficult, let alone thinking of ways to earn additional income - they are just tired after work and their minds are already drained by the increasingly difficult reality of life. Yeah, I agree that salary alone is not enough, you can't just rely on that when the economy is tough like it is now, but the reality is that it is quite difficult to find a better/additional income, no need to say that you need to improve your skills or think more innovatively, because everyone thinks the same, or the difficult situation makes it difficult for them to move and in the end they just accept the reality of life.

[Victorybit1]

The worst mistake anyone can make right now is relying on a regular 9 to 5 job, you can't get rich with that  and even down to the nare minimum which is surviving will be very difficult due to the cost of things. The inflation has become a very big challenge, for you to be able to survive you need something else to generate money for you otherwise what you earn wouldn't be enough to take care of yourself and your family. The economy is terribly bad to the point where people can't even afford basic things for themselves anymore. Your salary isn't enough to keep you going or make you rich, think of something else to do.

[stomachgrowls]

And as part of survival instinct then you would really be definitely be doing all possible things on different angles on which you could possibly be able to survive even if it means that it will really be putting ou on great disadvantage but still you would really be that doing it for the sake of survival and this do talks about taking up some loan or borrowing money. Its true that with todays commodity price on which it is really that continuing on rising its price on which your salary or paycheck wont really be able to caught up then it will really be that normal that you will be taking up necessary steps for you to be able to survive.
Some people do think up wisely on which they will really be taking up some loan but not for the sake on trying to spend it out but rather they would really be having plans on making up some investment or business.
This is the only way on which we do see that it could potentially be able to resolved out your problems when it comes to financial specially into the time that you've seen your paycheck isnt already that enough
to sustain your living or simply you cant be able to survive. How much more if you do have a family to raise or feed? You would definitely struggle on this case or such situation. You should act early as much as you can
and dont wait up for yourself to suffer up such situation.
