Working in Tanzania, Africa, with an annual salary of 400 thousand, can you live a rich life?

My husband was sent to Tanzania for two years. He not only lived in a villa there, but also hired 1' s bodyguard and 1' s nanny, and completely lived a rich life. What's even more amazing is that he can save more than 200 thousand every year.

Seeing this, you must think that my husband made a fortune in Africa, which is why he is such a hero, but he didn't. Then why can he live so well?

My husband is from a construction company, and his annual salary is 654.38+ 10,000. Because my husband works alone on the construction site and lives in a prefabricated house, I can only take care of my children in my hometown. Not only is the family separated all the year round, but his life is also very difficult.

This kind of prefabricated house on the construction site is stuffy and hot in summer, especially cold in winter, so it's okay not to blow. I feel the whole room shaking when it is windy, and it is even worse when it rains heavily, so I can't sleep.

Because our parents are both from the countryside, they can't help us, so after three or four years of marriage, we still can't afford to buy a house, and we don't have much savings in our hands.

People who come out of the countryside have a much harder life. They are not afraid of suffering, but they are afraid of having no money, so their husbands are bent on making more money.

Later, their company negotiated a construction project in Tanzania, Africa. After my husband heard about it, the subsidy and income can reach more than three times that of China. He was instantly moved and planned to apply for a few years in Africa.

My husband called me for advice. At first, I was against it. I was worried that it would be unsafe to go out. In addition, in our impression, Africa is a feeling of poverty and chaos.

But my husband said that working in China is separated from each other anyway, and we can only meet twice a year. Might as well go out for a living. Maybe in a year or two, we will be able to earn money to buy a house, and the present situation of our family will change a lot.

Although I was still a little worried, I was finally persuaded by my husband. In this way, he was sent to work in Tanzania, Africa for about two years.

After my husband went to Africa, his income made a qualitative leap, directly rising from the original annual salary of 65,438+10,000 to nearly 400,000.

In Tanzania, prices are really not cheap, and consumer goods are even more expensive than domestic ones, such as pots and pans, toiletries and the like, which are much more expensive than domestic ones, while other foods and the like are relatively cheaper, but the gap is not big. For expatriates, there is no pressure on price.

1 RMB = 359.9 12 Tanzanian shilling. According to the logo in the picture, the best retail price of their rice is close to 10 yuan, which is a few dollars cheaper. To tell the truth, it's quite expensive.

But if you buy ordinary fruit, it is not much different from that in China. Local fruit is generally cheaper than that in China.

Speaking of housing, after my husband went to Africa, he shared a villa-style house with his colleagues for a better life. It looks beautiful and has a big yard. My husband says this is the best house he has ever lived in. The rent of the house is equivalent to more than 6000 yuan, and the three colleagues share it equally, each with 2000 yuan. Because of the high monthly income, I thought the rent was very cheap.

When they have a place to live, they have to consider security, because after all, in Africa, they are still very concerned about security, so they consider finding a bodyguard at home. Only after asking did I know that the wages of local workers were really too low. Most workers' monthly salary is between 500- 1400, which makes them very happy, so they just hire a bodyguard for 600 yuan each to take them off work and go out to play on rest days, which is much more reassuring.

When the security problem is solved, there will be problems in life. Because he is not used to local food, he and his colleagues usually eat in the project department of the company. The project department cooks Chinese food and sometimes does something to improve the food at home when it is free.

Eating is not a big problem, and the problem is that the house is too big. They have to go to work and have no time to clean it. In addition, there are three masters in the family, "three monks have no water to drink", and everyone is counting on each other, which makes the family very dirty.

In order to solve this problem, they hired a nanny at the expense of 900 yuan. Their place is relatively remote, and the salary there is good. Moreover, nannies usually only need to work for half a day, so they are very satisfied and active. She always keeps the house clean.

My husband is 2900 yuan a month, so he lives in a villa, a bodyguard and a nanny. Even if you don't save it, plus the usual shopping expenses, it will be five or six thousand at most every month.

My husband said that he never thought that one day he could live like a rich man. He also wants to save money and have a company. Otherwise, he can afford to rent a house and hire his own bodyguard nanny, which makes him more like a rich man.

So, if you work in Tanzania, Africa with an annual salary of 400,000 RMB, I think you can live a rich life in the eyes of ordinary people.

My husband not only had a rich addiction in Africa, but also saved more than 400 thousand in two years, successfully saving enough down payment for our first house.

In the eyes of ordinary people, living in a villa, having bodyguards and nannies, isn't this the life of the rich?

But the word "rich" is difficult to define. If you want to live in a luxury house, drive a luxury car and wear luxury goods according to the standards of the rich, it is really not the life of the rich.

My husband still misses the life there after he comes back, but he said that although life feels good, he always feels empty and insecure when he leaves his hometown and has no relatives around him.

Moreover, the hired nannies and bodyguards are difficult to communicate because of the language barrier, so it is difficult to generate trust between them and they are always on the defensive.

In my husband's words, it is better to go home, because the air in my hometown is sweet.

If you want to earn money, you can go to Tanzania with an annual salary of 400,000 and save some money for yourself.

Sure! If you are young, it is good to go out and earn money back, and you can feel the feeling of being rich.

African women are also good. If you are single, you can still marry an African woman.

Not just a rich life. It is simply enviable. If you have time, go to the grassland for a few days, or go to Zanzibar to bask in the sun for a few days. It's refreshing

Your husband lives in a villa for up to 100 thousand bodyguards and nannies a year. Why did he only save 200 thousand? [Flash of inspiration]
