Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by eddyland: 10:58am On Aug 11, 2013
I jst saw some piteous conditions some guys that got married and with kids are undergoin because of lack of money and it realy got me wondering. This morning I went to visit a friend, and the guy that was managing in the security house close to the gate of my friends compound has been evacuated because the landlord that offered him the place wants to make use of the place. Ok now I saw him,his wife and their two little kids just perching at the compound, obviously no place to go to. And I have known the guy for a while, and ever since i know him things have not being that easy for him. See him, see his wife and two little kids, just perching outside just like that, exposing the little kids to harsh environmental condition, i now begin to wonder, is it even by force to get married and bring in kids into the world that we cannot even take care of and just allow them to suffer for what they dont even know. Because it is even now very obvious that this guy was not even able to take care of himself very well but he went and pick a wife which i cant tell if they were legally married or not and with two very little kids of theirs. So is it really worth it to pick a wife even in our sorry condition?

@op what is 'very very poor?'
Re: Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by Nobody: 11:19am On Aug 11, 2013
Why should a 'very poor' man get married? undecided. Which money you wan use take care of your family . Which girl even wants to marry a 'very poor man' tongue
Re: Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by djeezy(m): 11:24am On Aug 11, 2013
@op by very poor do you mean destitute, impecunious, bankrupt, insolvent? A man should fix himself and ensure he is fit enough to cater for the needs of the family, that's the most important thing. You need not be as affluent as Dangote before you get married. Why do poor people have more kids than the rich?

In Igboland, children are considered as riches. A man with plenty children is considered wealthy gringrin

A man who can take care of all his children is the true riches. Not children with empty stomach.

OP, i didn't understand what u mean by 'very poor'

back to ur topic
i believe one thing in life
as long as u ve someth doing
i mean someth dat put food on ur table
my dear, u can get urself a wife

what makes some of us tink or lookdown on ourselfs as a poor person is just dat we lack ability to plane wit what we earn

so a low class man can get a wife and live a manageable life
only if he can plane wit what he earn
Re: Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by eddyland: 5:05pm On Aug 11, 2013
'very poor' just being emphatic of the level of poverty. because for person like Dangote, a man with two million in his account might look like a poor person to him.

^^ Poorness is of the mind.

Having said that, even poorness with regards to financial wealth get levels. What sort of level are you talking about here? Destitute? Living under the bridge? Face-me-I-face-you??

Which one?

I tire for people sha.

If you're poor, like so poor you can't afford a roof over your head when you're out on your a$$ because you're unemployed, you have no business having an e-rection, not to talk of sticking it into a woman. For you, in fact, masturbaytiing with engine oil, soap and vaseline is permitted.

Why bring kids into the world to suffer, and turn out to be like you? Those kids will end up like their pa, no 2 ways about it. The fruit does not fall far from the tree.

Rubbish.

^^ Having kids is not a do or die affair.

Let him sort himself out first before entertaining thoughts of marriage. Kids deserve the very best in life. We owe it to them as their parents to give them just that. Afterall, they didn't ask to be born, nor be brought into a life dirt poor background life of hand-to-mouth hard grafting for their daily bread.

Spot on!

The last thing society needs are couples who ignore the fact that they can barely eke out a living for themselves, but choose to breed like rabbits. Then they go on to phase 2 calling on the government, community and well meaning Nigerians to help them feed the extra mouths they brought forth.

If you are poor, you can marry but pls, do go producing kids that will be hungry and no money for education, exception if you are a farmer and promise to homeschool your kid.

Too many kids suffering in this world.
Re: Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by Godson201333(m): 8:56am On Aug 13, 2013
Yes this is what is happening in Nigeria.

You will see a poor Man having more than 4 wives and of course more than 20 children and yet no money to care or them.

Some will go under the excuse of looking for a male child at the end they are gonna give birth to more than 8 kids and no money.

I have seen enough.

If you once lived in places like US ya gonna know that taking care of just a single child no be beans.
Re: Should A Very Poor Guy Go And Marry? by OfficeGirl(f): 11:11am On Aug 13, 2013
Why marry if you do not have the means to cater to the family?
A man should first get a job before thinking of marriage.

Being married doesn't mean you have to immediately have a family.

We all call for change in Nigeria, but it is obvious that we ourselves need to change first, because we also have strong and wrong attitudinal problem. Must you insult somebody on the forum all the time, what calls or warrants the insult? if you cannot follow up comments and threads in a forum, why not just keep mute rather than being barbaric
