THE COST OF LIVING IN UGANDA IN 2024 | How much I spend a month!

[@fiffibytom]

How much do you guys spend per month and how many are you in the family?

[@scottalexa5983]

I'm always amazed by the variety of organic food in Uganda, no wonder people there barely get sick! (Unrelated: could you one time show a full tour of that market? I know I have seen it in person but there's a lot of people that haven't and it'd be nice to see the variety of food Uganda has to offer)

[@fiffibytom]

Yeah, I can do that!😊

[@ntabazirogers1259]

Thanks! Keep up. There is a place for everyone in Uganda 😊

[@fiffibytom]

I Am iny mid 50's now and my teeth was still growing at your age then my top right moler pained me soooo bad at 40. Tooth fell out but The Most High lead me to use clove powder ( pack on and around whole gums on the paining side tooth) or oil pain will leave almost instantly!and I would make clove mouthwash to gargle. HalleluYAH!🙏🏾♥️ I felt much better. Then tooth fell out, had a cavity spot I was shocked.

[@fiffibytom]

Thank you very much for sharing this❤

[@scottalexa5983]

[@amywamala]

My rent is $1,400 per month for a 1 bedroom apartment in Hendersonville, Tennessee!! Plus car payment, insurance, credit cards, personal loan, the credit cards balance went up due to my missing work due to illness! It's ridiculous 😢!!

[@fiffibytom]

Wow! I'm sorry 😞

[@Namutebijuliet13]

One thing about Fifi she will give us free tips🥰 love u girl❤❤❤

[@fiffibytom]

Always!😂❤

[@peshyt]

[@fiffibytom]

Thank you😍

[@amywamala]

My cell phone is $47 per month! Electricity is variable. This month its $81!!

[@Namutebijuliet13]

Actually Fifi now in Kampala u can't get a decent non furnished one bedroom at $200 because am currently house hunting they start at 1M these days which is like $300 and they are not even modern.

[@fiffibytom]

Yeah that's why I said that depending on the location, there are some places far away from town where you can get a decent one at $200 but the places near town it's impossible you're right

[@peshyt]

Then therez us who stay in a room of 200K Uganda shillings 🤣🤣🤣 ate nga its not too small cheers to us😂

[@nightakanyetaba7980]

😂😂😂​@@peshyt

[@MegaStellaSverige]

That water bill is way too much. You can talk to the NWSC guys to come and check if there is a leakage somewhere.

[@fiffibytom]

Thank you so much I'll surely do this!

[@evereadyfall4150]

Please explain again paying in dollars and getting Ug shillings back at the Supermarket ? 1st I had no idea you could buy things with USD. #2 what is the benefit of using dollar instead of shillings ? Thank you

[@fiffibytom]

Hi, this is only beneficial if you have USD and have to exchange to get Uganda shillings, because the exchange rate in Entebbe is bad so if you buy using your USD you get more value because they give change in ugx at a normal exchange rate. If you already have Uganda shillings you don't need this tip. I hope you understand 🙂

[@marianamanolova6461]

Why is it so expensive in Uganda ??? Unbelievable ! How can ordinary people survive in this country ??? The wages are too low !

[@fiffibytom]

It's very hard!

[@brittspottery]

Now here in the UK, all that would cost more than 70k. 😂😂 Cost of living is so high here

[@fiffibytom]

As expected, cause you guys earn way more than us here😁

[@robertawright4822]

Your home is very beautiful in Uganda you are so beautiful as well I will be your number one fan for life now I can't wait to see your fiance with you you got a lot of food for 10 hours yesterday if your tooth still hurts get some anbesol but you got to go to the dentist and get it pulled out or get it filled 💯💯🙏🙏✋💯💚🧡😘💎❤️💛 I am from the United States I'm a relief from Brooklyn New York I live in South Carolina now I've been out here 31 years and thank you for showing me the sights of you that is beautiful ❤️❤️❤😊😊

[@fiffibytom]

Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️

[@amywamala]

Wow!! $200 for one bedroom??? So jealous 😢

[@PaulaJacobsen_]

Oh dear things are worse here in Sweden, we are a family of 4 and we spend $800 to $1000 on groceries and toiletries. we have a house so we pay $1700 on mortgage per month. Everything is just more expensive here I think you guys are lucky in Uganda

[@fiffibytom]

Oh wow! That's a lot😢

[@Kins-r7b]

But dear if you get to know what is in Uganda you won't admire most of them are working. For salary not reaching 100 USD per month so now where life is perfect to each and every one ❤

[@fiffibytom]

Exactly..we make way less money here it's so sad many people can't even afford food yet it's not expensive but we get paid very little money here😢

[@Kins-r7b]

@@fiffibytomwhat other people doesn't know working from morning to night getting 60000 or 90000 Ugandan shillings per month equivalent to like 16 or 24 USD per month clothing food rent health and so many other most of those crying spend money on even useless luxury that's why I followed you because of your accountability ♥️

[@PaulaJacobsen_]

@@Kins-r7b well, life is expensive here my dear I'm sorry that there are people forced to survive on $16 in Uganda it's impossible here because you cannot get a small room to live in below $400 the cost of living here is very high not all of us spend money on luxuries but even buying basic needs is very expensive!

[@peshyt]

For me data am lucky i use for my boss🥰

[@fiffibytom]

Wow good for you😊

[@ComfortJallah]

How much pre 1 month rent in USD In ugandan ??

[@fiffibytom]

[@fiffibytom]

How is the cost of living in your country?

[@SisTkitchen]

Hello my beautiful ❤❤

[@fiffibytom]

Hey darling ❤

[@traceykabasinguzi7053]

Hello Fifi, i would like to meet you in person, i have some business to discuss with you . Thanks☺.

[@fiffibytom]

Hello, what kind of business? You can email me at [e-mail]

[@amywamala]

My bills are probably between rent and bills about $2,500 per month!!

[@fiffibytom]

That's quite a lot

[@amywamala]

@fiffibytom yes it is unfortunately!! That is why I tell my husband I would rather live in Uganda!!😟

[@fiffibytom]

@@amywamala yeah living in Uganda wouldn't cost that much the problem is getting a job that actually pays enough to survive, that's the biggest challenge we have here. If you find a way to make money e.g if your job in the States allows you to work remotely, you will live happily here all bills paid and even get bonus to save😊

[@amywamala]

@fiffibytom well, I work in the medical field so remote work is not possible! However, I am certified to teach English online. So my husband and I decided it may be best to do that in China where he is currently working. Rents are super affordable there! Then we can save alot while we build our home in Uganda. We will make our decision in November, after he goes through his visa interview!

[@fiffibytom]

​@@amywamala sounds like a great plan. All the best to you guys🤩

[@beckyainebyoona5323]

Fiffi, you live in Entebbe or ntinda????

[@fiffibytom]

I recently moved to Entebbe but I've lived in Ntinda before.
