Build your seven-day plan

All amounts are virtual game naira. Career presets use base pay per shift. Change the amount to match your own game; bonuses, tax and server-side adjustments are not applied automatically.

1. Work and income

Choose a listed career or enter your own amount.

2. Balance and costs

Enter your actual rent due, plus loan repayments, tax estimates or moving costs under other costs. Daily food and transport are counted for all 7 days.

How the calculation works

Shift pay is multiplied by your planned work days and shifts per day. Daily pay is multiplied by work days. Weekly or monthly pay is divided by the paid work days you enter, then multiplied by the days in this plan. This is an equivalent-income estimate, not a prediction of the exact date your salary arrives.

Income is combined with your starting balance. Rent, other weekly costs, and seven days of food and transport are subtracted. Results are rounded to two decimal places.

Use a base-pay comparison, then adjust it

Try one entry-level career, record the result, then switch to another role without changing your living costs. The difference shows what the listed base pay changes in your scenario. It does not bypass promotion requirements or add extra shifts to the game.

For a LAPO start, include the repayment actually due. For a home change, budget any one-off cost separately from weekly rent. Check the background comparison and housing table for context.

Questions & answers

Does the calculator connect to my Lagos Life account?

No. It calculates the values you enter in your browser and does not read or change your game account.

Are taxes and bonuses included?

Not automatically. Presets use base pay. Enter adjusted pay or add your estimated deductions to other costs for the week.

Can I share a plan?

Yes. The Share this plan button puts the calculator inputs into a link. Anyone with that link can see those game-budget amounts; it does not include a game password.
