I am not living in USA 🇺🇸 but where I am living in Europe if you are working you make 120000 thousand Rwanda Money (120€ per day) while if you’re working in Rwanda a normal job like teacher you earn only 1€ per day , how can you afford this apartment of 500€ per month. Remember in west if you’re not working you still get paid from government, and the salary you can get without working it could better than someone who’s working for government in Africa ( for example a minister) guys Africa is good but the politicians are useless.
