"You shouldn't complain. $688 just for being on social media isn't bad!"

"Not all advertisers like your kind of content. So even though your impression is high, X ran fewer ad on your content. That's why its 'low'."

"1$ = 902naira
"$688 x 902naira = 620,576naira.
"Earning a 620,576 naira without owning a physical shop is huge."

"Now that you got something you felt is little, you decided to tell the world ooh. When you got paid at first you refused to tell the world how much it was. This life no balance at all."
