In an X post by @ButterBabe_, the lady listed all she enjoyed with her N350,000 salary in 2021.

She said:

“In 2021, I was earning steady 350k aside small small jobs. I lived better, I was happier. I go to supermarket, I shopped real good. I bought all the exotic things I see. My house was a stop of uneaten stuff. I flew anyhow. I was living a good babe' life in my own level.“2024, I earn way more. Still can't pack seedless grapes, endless plums, exotic supermarket stuffs. I'm so unhappy that the money is coming & I still don't know where it is going to coz I do not eat half those sh*t anymore. I just stick to basic food. & someone is wishing $1/₦2k. I was shopping clothes, shoes, bags every month..IG prices o. I was doing Red Tag.“Fast forward 2024, I earn way more but I live like a thrifter. Can't remember when last I ordered anything from IG. Light bill doubled 300%. But I swear to God, I earn way more.”
