It is not wrong, not at all. I can not allow my sister or daughter to marry someone that is not financially okay. You can preach about humble beginnings for all you care, but na money dem dey take live life, not sex. Go and make money first, poor people like to fight their wives cos of poverty synchronized with roughened emotion. 1 Like |

VickyyB:Why shouldn't he be happy if the man asking to marry his daughter is responsible and loves her? No condition is permanent. Jonathan once had no shoes. |

That's how you guys miss your helpers! Simple question, how much do you earn (so that we may help you earn more)? You are forming proud. Okay o.. I see nothing wrong in the question because I'm most likely going to ask when I'm giving out my daughter in marriage. It all depends on how I perceived the guy to be. |

The question might be if he has a job with good pay but asking for the exact amount is not proper. |

I've been asked questions like, ....: "Are you still in school or you are working?" Me: "I'm a graduate sir" ....: "Ok, where do you work?" Me: "Lagos sir" Never give a direct answer...they seem to just blend along with whatever answer they hear. 4 Likes |

bunmioguns: It's not wrong. It's just rude. Yes... he can ask such a question considering it's you who's asking for the girl's hand in marriage. And he has a right to know if you can take care of his daughter(Even though it's a shallow thought). But it's rude cos anyone being asked such will feel very uncomfortable right then and after. 1 Like |

It is not bad, atleast for them to know if you can afford to take care of the necessities. If they consider it not sufficient enough they can be of assist to you depending on how you present yourself to command respect from them. |

Times are changing, some things that were deemed unnecessary 20 years ago might be necessary these days. Won't blame the parents except when it's done to fleece the potential suitor! 1 Like 1 Share |

chaircover:Your Last paragraph is very correct. .. Every parent loves to have an idea of what their prospective in law earns.. but asking it so direct is wrong. ... They should hv found out from their daughter instead.. And the answer wouldn't be specific, maybe a close range... |

It's no big deal, afterall you are marrying their child. They want to know if you can shoulder the responsibility. |

VickyyB:How do you determine that a 20k salary earner's condition will be permanent? Or that someone with 1 million Naira as salary will not go broke tomorrow? I'm too enlightened to be talking based on Nollywood so please take note, what matters is knowing who you are marrying and his potentials, money can come and go. 2 Likes |

its wrong but if they insist then answer "technically" that you earn enough to take care of their daughter. |
