Thank God we still av girls like vivian chinaza that still have good heads on their head. No one is saying u shudnt marry a rich man. But a lot of girls are greedy. For example my Ex gf now. I always knew she was greedy. One of the reasons I left her. Now she's suffering for it. Granted I was not serious but she got married shortly becos of greed. So one day she calls me crying telling me that she is tired of a 3 months marriage that she is unhappy that she shouldn't av married her husband but it was her greed. Can u imagine. I jst pity her husband. Many women don't understand that money doesn't equal happiness. Poverty doesn't equal happiness either. Success takes time. Some guys get lucky and start from the top. Some guys don't. My brothers first salary was 15k a month. Now he is earning 26 million a year in an oil company. Then he was gettin none. Now he is getting a lot. Later girls will cme to NL and say rich guys are wicked. Before nko. |

vivian chinaza: I'm from a very humble background or should I say poor? Yea poor sounds like it, "humble" just makes it bearable, Lol, ok. But rich guys keep coming for me, and no one has ever cared about my family's financial/social status. In fact, that's the first thing I tell them, I'm always like "dear, don't let my looks deceive you, I'm from a very humble background o." I'm Vivian, and that should be enough!hmmmmm 9icd one........does dat have ear,let dem hear! |

The problem with our nigerian girls is dat most of dem are greedy,some are so desparate to get it by force not minding how the guy got the wealth in the first place and dis has lead most of dem into unhappy marriage,they forget dat God never destined anyone to be poor,but he said when u work hard I will mutliply the fruit of your labour dat jst the simple truth.we should learn from other western world they don't chase money the way our ladies do in these part of the world,some foolish guys also do desperate tings to get money all in the name to satisfy our girls,dis has lead some guys to go into armed robbery,drugs,and other evil act just to make money and please the women folks.my advice to ladies is dat if u are in a relationship date a guy dat has got a zeal, passion,desire,goals and determination,though strugggling to make it stand by him and give him all the support he need to get to the top I assured you that guy will neveer forget u,cos someday he is gonna look back and said honey I remember when the going was tough,but u stand by me and encourage me to move ahead and now see what I have become.he will appreciate you for all the encouragements and it will be difficult for him let you go off him,minding the fact that u stood by him when the going was tough.but dis days such kinda of ladies are so rare to find,most girls nw want already made finished goods,but somtimes I ask myself what about if the money is no longer they dat means the love and relationship will crush also,then she will go around looking for anoda mr dangote it so pathetic,also our guys don't learn they also feel money makes the worLd and when they get broke and the money is no longer they,the girl is gone out of they life ,then u will see dem sayin hmmm so dis girl is just after my money,now am broke she is gone dat girl is wicked nt minding the fact that you as a guy caused it urself.most guys dis days they tend to boast and lie a lot to our ladies some of them even go to the extent of hiring cars,people house to impress our ladies for God sake guys u dnt need all dat just be urself,if she is meant for u,she will stand by u both in the good times and bad times,please it just an advice don't go into robbery and crime to satisfy a lady please just be urself and be natural and i bet you if she is meant for u,u will surely know u don't need a soothsayer to interprer dat for u cheers!!! |

Let us all learn to believe in God and in our personal abilities, let us also bear it in mind @all times that money makes the world go round but doesn't define true happiness, let us learn to know that vanity is all that we call wealth but the best that can happen to a human is experiencing true love and happiness, let us know that for a fact marriage is a union and not a meeting where one comes to gain but to sacrifice for the good of the family, love is one of the wonders of the world but shouldn't be hitched on money, let us learn to know that even a fool can have money but love is sacred. Marriage is all about finding a good partner who will be there thru thick and thin, for better or worse but its not for fools, rich or poor in marriage, money shouldn't be a determinant. Life is sweet, life is beautiful..love is life for those who understand the basics. But our preference to marry shouldn't be based on money or wealth. ...Just my twentycent. |

The thing isnt to make others feel bad about wanting money, folks are just stating their preference and why. My own opinion for example, about not being able to date or marry into a rich family, is my personal pov, and not applicable to anyone else, note the sneezing fellow. If i know your family is rich, i simply do not date you, this has always been my philosophy and that's just the way i see it. Growing up poor in nigeria probably contributed a lot to this. The social strata is a bit more rigid in my experience, and to the best of my knowledge, most rich guys werent interested in me either, as far as i know. Even in ife, we look at each other but levels are different. Quarters boys, partying, trips abroad, etc, not my thing and vice versa. Everybody sticks to their comfort zone. Its probably easier for a man to marry up than it is for a woman to do the same, since women tend to relax their standards after a while. A man typically can prefer to marry from a rich family while reserving something on the side for runs girls, housemaids, hookers, etc - to him, this is a win win situation. |

I prefer a lady who is intelligent and hardworking to that whose parents are rich. E.g..just met a lady .graduate and very jovial what shocked me was that she doesn't have a BB and never felt bothered she said she has better projects to execute with money than to buy BB...i was impressed that a Nigerian Lady in Lagos can reason like that...i don't have a BB either and we laughed over it..i also realized she is very hardworking with high projections SHE WON MY HEART .today we are best of friends 2 Likes |

LesbianBoy:They are not unhappy b'cos they are rich but b'cos they didn't marry for love. If they re poor, it's d same. Besides, poverty is a state of d mind. If we are content and live within our means, we ll live a full life. Dolly Patterson's 'Coat of Many Colours' comes to mind. It's a beautiful song on contentment. |

Nobody wants to be poor or marry from a poor background We understand that. But ђã†̥ most ladies don't understand is that they have allowed desperation aπϑ their poverty of thought spoil and labelled them a 'GOLD DIGGER'. Some ladies have not even entered into a relationship properly and they have started making high demands. Even if i'm from wealthy home, hello i am not father christmas. Who will like to date a lady that on your first date she makes lots of demand at τ̲̅ђe eatery and even have τ̲̅ђe effrontery to ask Ɣøû for take away. Most guys detest this and such act makes τ̲̅ђe lady look like a gold digger. Even if you are out for the money why use it as a first option? There are other things that are more important than money. There is this believe i have. I am not suppose to chase after wealth, but rather chase after those things that will make wealth chase after Ɣøû aπϑ one of this things is Knowledge aπϑ Information. |

the assumption that nothing matters but money. money is important, true, but basing your entire life's meaning around it, e get as e be. then too, greed plays a large part, and what yorubas call "ojowu". |
