    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.

    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”

    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

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?

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.
