WHAT IS THE REAL COST OF LIVING IN GHANA ? WHAT I SPEND IN A DAY WHILE LIVING ALONE

[@myrtisallotey8928]

I tell folks that Ghana is not cheap. Thanks for showing the truth.

[@JasmineAmaa]

Not at all xx

@@JasmineAmaa why. I'm trying to build a B&B there. Folks need beds and food.

[@frostnelly45]

Ghana is cheap.. Accra isn't cheap. There's a difference. Aside the petrol which is fixed everywhere people can get everything you purchased relatively cheaper in other parts of the country. Accra folks literally overprice everything. You should try doing a day in a life video in other cities in the country; ie. Kumasi, Takoradi, Aburi,Cape Coast and so on and lets see how much you'll spend in a day relatively

[@JasmineAmaa]

Great idea x

[@staringatmonalisa]

This patrol price is insane. It cost the same to fill the same car in los Angeles, which has one of the highest gas prices in the US, with a minimum wage of $16 an hour in LA, minimum wage in Ghana is $2 if not less. Like some folks say, the “math ain’t mathing”

Thanks for giving us an idea about the cost of living in Ghana. It's pretty high let's hope that the economy will improve so that things will become more affordable

[@JasmineAmaa]

Yeah I hope so too xx

[@b123-j9z]

Great content! I really love the art piece, you gave me an idea of where I'll get mine too! Because expenses tend to fluctuate a lot depending on what you're doing that day, it would be interesting to see a monthly view of this "cost of living in Ghana" covering the essentials at least: electricity, groceries, petrol, etc. Please continue with the great work.

I feel like Ghana same price on America 🇺🇸 I don’t see the hype but I do love Ghana 🇬🇭 😊

[@ylstaggs]

Yes, ghana is not cheap, US is not cheap either, my gas here in the US is 65 on full tank and getting my nails done is thirty something and that’s just my toes and then I have to pay for my hands! Here in the US they went up on food too, but you find some cheap stuff, thank you Jasmine for sharing!❤️💯

Thank you for sharing your 2 days with us. This isn't really a regular day. It would have been great if you could give a line item cost of everything from when you leave your home for breakfast on the road until you return after dinner and night time entertainment. What's the cost of each? I didn't see you mention all costs. That's what I think of when I see someone listing out what it cost living single in Ghana. Any chance you'll do another video of a normal day in the life?

The fuel is cheap compared to the Netherlands, where one would pay 128 dollars for 55 liters of the standard quality. And the premium quality would cost 139 usd. I would be content. Will visit this summer. Thanks for sharing!

Can you explain the pension you set up. I have never heard of that in Africa unless you are a government worker /civil servant . How does it work ? At what age do they start paying out ?

[@samuelkobby5723]

It's pension for self employed people through the tax you pay.

[@madjoabutterfly]

It is NOT at all PENSION but SSNIT is a Social Security plan that employers pay for employees. We do this for our school workers. So Jasmine as self employed KZbinr unclear what scheme for SSNIT she's doing but so much shady dealings in Ghana!

Wow. I went to Ghana in 2006. The 1st time I went to an Art Centre, ppl kept grabbing/pulling me & in my personal space. I was like what the hell is this? I was very uncomfortable. I knew they weren't trying to hurt me or scare me. They just wanted me to see what they had. 1 guy was weird. He handed me something. I told him it was beautiful, but no thank you. He put his hands up, refused to take it & said I had to buy it. He wouldn't take it back. He said I was from the US & could afford it. After a minute I told him I'm not going to buy it. You either take it...or I'm throwing it & breaking it. He was pissed.

@@JasmineAmaa Ah ... Gas goes fairly decent. I get that there's no need for it to be online... But want to understand what kind of information can be garnered from it in Ghana. I recall when many people here in the States used to hide it when posting on KZbin... but see less of this now. Fair also if you stand by the general want to keep it private as mentioned.

It's good that she hide her license plate or anything that a person can identify her by. There are sick minded people in this world that seek to cause you harm. She should always be cautious.

Ghana is not expensive. It rather depends on your spending lifestyle. Depending on your spending lifestyle any where in the world can be affordable or expensive.

[@madjoabutterfly]

Eiiish Chale be serious Ghana is very very expensive with the 3rd world infrastructure high petrol, high costs of food, dealing with lights out, horrible roads, dust, healthcare not up to atandards, so even for average Ghanaian too much and so me visiting from USA all too high! I just left after 2 weeks and was spending sometimes 2000 cedis a day, blood sucking cedis, and I couldn't wait to return back to NYC last week.
