Yes you can surely settle down with your income, but the truth is, will your future wife be okay with managing your resources and secondly is she working or will be supporting your monthly salary? With that amount, my guy no think of saying you wan assist anybody for now oo, abi you just wan dey owe credit b4 month end?

The way you make your bed so shall u lyn on it. You can also can not assist your parents all dapends on individue.

It depends on the quality of life you want to live.baby diapers alone for a month ll take 9-16k,it ll be easier if your spouse is working.

why not some people whose remuneration is even less than that are living comfortable . Or do u think is through ur ability ?

@Mutalim..I really believe in your point but cant even disclose my salary to my girlfriend coz am afraid i may loose her....what do u think i can do?

Why can't you disclose ur present remuneration to her is she getting married to u because of ur level of income ?

It might not necessitate that the spouse should also work

My bad! Wrong thread.

Earning as in salary...''NO''...BUT earning as in entrepreneur yea sure you can...so you either use your two month salary and open something tangible INCASE and then carry on with other responsibilities

Olumide y do u want to start ur life dis way? Why are u hiding ur salary frm her? Pls tell her if she is not ok with it, let her take a walk

Doable but will be extremely difficult

Is she working?

What Measures have been put in place to migrate from your financial status

Yes u can, u will plan on it, even if it's 7k u can afford, at all at all naa him pass, it's there right, let them know ur worth.

@Mutaalim,did you read where I said it depends on the quality of life he wants?did I mention that the spouse must work?

The beginning of your "relationship" problems !
Please,if you think this is the girl you might settle down with then TELL her in all honesty. She'll stay if she's yours.

@Topic,yes its possible but you've got to :
Make sure your spouse knows before hand how much u earn,same for your family. So no one would expect you to take them to silverbird each weekend or buy aso ebi for every occasion.

Make sure you put aside atleast 5K each month. Must. Not to be withdrawn unless there is an emergency(food,hospital bill,rent problem)

Live within your means- very important.

Join a church or mosque and be an active member . It helps in times of crises. At least some do.

Most of the home keeping job hangs on the woman's shoulder. To be honest, the failure or success depends mostly on the type of woman you marry so please,MAKE sure you get it right- study and marry a woman that you know can manage,improvise in times of lack. You end up with a woman whose cream alone is 7K, her powder set 4K,hair do is 5K each week then you are on a longggg thing.

No, U didn't mention a thing of such. I only said it doesn't behoove on her.
