On a serious note... With the replies on this thread, I wonder if we are all in this same 'Nigeria!' How many people's take home pay is above N150,000 or N100,000 monthly? How many people work in Chevron, Mobil and other high paying organizations? Some people earn N100,000 monthly with 3 kids and they still buy cars, build houses and train all their kids through school. Fine, they might not achieve all at once but they do. Let us be realistic please. 10 Likes |

Androgen daisy: Nairaland babes I plan to find and marry the woman of my dreams soon.More money comes with greater responsibility. No amount of money can be enough. Just be prudent and wise in the way you spend money. And more importantly, marry a woman that isn't selfish. |

750k /month is a good start. But the most important thing is to marry a partner not a dependant 2 Likes |

Fadelex: what d husband is earning is not even d issue but how he is able to manage it. I've seen people earning 200k but couldn't account for somethin reasonable they did with d money while some earn just 50k and could cater for their needs. but a potential husband earning should be enuf to pay rent, feed 3 people, and pay utility bills.. That's a bit superficial. Suppose the one earning 200k/month has 3 junior ones at University that he funds, how will he have any savings or achieve anything? If the one officially on 50K per month gets 300k kickback per month and has no extended family responsibilities, how will he not achieve more material stuff? We judge people too much on material things without knowing how they do it. Any wonder people are trying to amass wealth by any means and crime is so much? 2 Likes |

sanb: @Op; giving a specific amount might be tricky; cos it all depends on the type of wife you marry and the kind of life-style you want to live. If you marry a wife that wants to catch up with the “Joneses” then no matter what you earn per month, it’ll never be enough for her to spend for the up keep of the household. |

ceejayluv: My calculation goes thus: family income = 45k X no. Of persons. Including dependents. Eg. If you're taking care of younger siblings or parents, calculate it at 45k per head.dummy formula. It does not work that way sir. D same gas dat moves a car for one person, is d same for 8. Wen u buy grocery or oda commodities in large or whole quantities, it becomes cheaper. Some times u get d same satisfaction even if u eat more or less. Ur formula is inconclusive. §£xY•—•W¡†cH™:poor people always fantasize over the realities of d rich. Keep ur dream at an illusive paste. Mrs.Chima:Obamacare on d way for ur mental disorder. satellitedaisy: Stupid threadSometimes silence is more eloquent and reasonable.

bukatyne: On a serious note... Anybody who claims to earn N100k/month and still manages to raise three kids, buy and maintain personal cars, and build a house in Nigeria of today is a big thief (which is what most Nigerians are anyway). This explains why corruption is a way of life in this country, and hardly anyone is clean. Too many civil servants, bankers, lawyers, and all categories of white-collar workers and professionals engage in criminal malpractices in the course of their work to 'supplement' (or in fact multiply) their legitimate income. 1 Like |

It all depends on how you plan to live. If you lied and fake up to get her then you are doomed, be real to your self first, then find a suitor, women ain't really expensive if they love you for who you are. |

You should earn enough to take care of yourself and your children, and satisfy her BASIC needs. She should provide all her vanities with the money she earns. Or aren't you supposed to be financial partners as well? When it comes to taking financial and other responsibilities, these Nig women are quick to forget the other end of their equality with men campaign. 3 Likes |
