According to Tife’s Bureau of Statistics, everyone likes money, and people who claim not to are financially related to Dangote.

LOVE CURRENCY The Inside Gist-ish: What’s Dating in Abuja Like on a ₦180k Monthly Salary? =.3n_8p-EtXRDUtZPfZD2YUKdIw21nak9IWg33IKgSEbc For this week’s #LoveCurrency, I’m throwing it back to the very first episode. We talked to Kingsley*, an Abuja-based lawyer who’d been in a serious relationship for over a year at the time of the interview. How’s he holding down his relationship on a ₦180k monthly salary? His girlfriend doesn’t stay in the same city, so date expenses are limited to when she visits, plus the occasional birthday gifts, loans and flight expenses when they meet up. Interestingly, they don’t talk about money. “I don’t ask her about her salary because I don’t want to know. She’s complained that I’m not particularly eager to talk about money. I know that when we get married, I’ll need to be fully transparent about my finances, so I’m working on myself. Right now, we still live pretty different lives in different cities, so till then.” [Read more about how they manage their relationship](=.XW6pkKU0cbImiqI5DgcX-yKI8CXvWbJQqBS6l-No8Y8) *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](#) --> Zikoko Daily's Top 3 Shawarma isn’t the bae she used to be.
