Hi,

I am 28 yrs single guy. I have got master's degree in commerce and around 5-6 yrs of experience in Finance & Accounts. I got an offer from Platcorp.com offering me 800USD as saving and 90,000 Naira as local salary apart from the other benefits like room on sharing basis, car on sharing basis, free electricity, laptop and all the facilities and I suppose to only pay for grocery (vegetable).

So just like to know is this company is genuine? and what they are offering 90,000 Naira is enough to survive there as i don't want to take anything from 800 USD and want to send the same to my family in India.

Please do share expeience on the same.

thank you so much for your honest answers.

thanks

Hello,I don't think 90,000 is enough for u and ur family without touching the 800USD.standard of living is high and is d company paying for u kids education.if not d salary is small to survive wt ur family in Lagos.
