@ Fhemmmy, @ r231

I know you have good reasons to want to know! But I just dont want to say. Like I said in one of my posts, I'm confortable! I consider any man more comofortable than I am, a rich man. If I marry someone I'm better than, I'll always feel like he's not man enough for me. Not because I'm too rich, but because any guy I'm better than is . . . well, he's not rich. cheesy cheesy

As for dating . . . I dont even date rich guys, I go for the bastardly rich grin grin

Do u think there is any disadvantage in what you looking for?
Turn the table around, would u advice ur brother to marry a lady with such demand and prerequisite as you do for a wife?
be honest

Honestly, I wont advise my brother to marry a lady better than him. I tell my Brothers everyday to go for girls they can take care of. If your wife earns 20k, you should earn 40k and if she earns 50k, u shd earn at least 80k. Its not right for a man to marry a woman that earns 20k when he earns 5k  cheesy

well said, but the only thing that is constant is change.
If the man has the potential and he is earning 100k today, with potential and a good wife on his side and behind him, he will surely earn more or even employ someone in the nearest future and pay the employee 100k

Re: Am I Wrong To Want To Marry A Rich Man? by OvieE: 4:31pm On Aug 19, 2009
Uju is just golddigging bitch. In every relationship, there is something would like but you have to deal with it. What happen if you find this man and do not have the quality in bed room, what you do. Break up and go to another sucker? Ashawo.

If you want to know who is this lunatic, I will tell you and this lunatic is you worst nightmare ashawo. So many people ask you questions and you are running/shying to answer them. NYC mayor is rich but do not have this things your are looking for so how do you expect 28 to 30 who still in school to have them. The man has be crinimal for you. I wish I know how to write in urhobo and I could have cause you tinny ass out in my language. you fuckin bitch is the one that make men to sacrify their happy not even in name of love. Nonces

Yes! But how do you judge a man with a good potential? My cousin married a 36 yr old guy that was still taking a part time course in one of the Universities. She keeps saying he had potentials and all I can think is how? The guy's 36 yrs old for Christ sakes. What was he doing when his mates were going to school?

For me to see potentials in a guy, I need to know what you have on ground first  grin  grin

With the kinda university we run in Nigeria, where only the one that are from rich dada and mama can afford to go to "functional" university, it is possible for someone to get his/her degree at an age older than usual.
Now the man at 36 that is doing part time schooling at university, what is he doing that he is not schooling full time, does he have a Job? else, what occupies his time while not in school/
if he has a job, why cant the wife, work with him and see how they can make him do something that will bring out the potentials in him, he can market stuff, he can start a small biz, there are so many opportunities in Nigeria.
However, there is a thin line between laziness and "waiting for my potential" and " God will provide"
I hate laziness, but dont be too quick to judge people.
So what can be on ground as you put it, doesnt have to be money in his account and landed properties, it could be skill, and contacts, cos with those well refined, it could turn into gold

Since you do not date the rich but super rich, you are the kind of woman who make ordinary Nigeria go hungry and swim in high extreme poverty day and night because the money that meant for the mases, go into you bank account. You be dating only politician because they are the only one who can use the public money to satisfy you needs. Shame on you. You will surely get what you are bagaining for. Mark my word.

Re: Am I Wrong To Want To Marry A Rich Man? by lbotus(f): 4:55pm On Aug 19, 2009
@ Poster

Yes

Yes when u set that as a criteria for marriage cos u might bcome an old woman with lots of grey hair while waiting for the rich guy within the ages of 28-30 with landed property.am not saying,u shud settle for a poor church rat that isn't sure of 3 square meals a day,i mean good meal.
Atleast couples grow with time.the "average guy" u marry today can become a multibilloniare in future.so why not sow where u can reap and not reap where u didn't sow ?undecided
Re: Am I Wrong To Want To Marry A Rich Man? by demure: 4:57pm On Aug 19, 2009
well is not wrong but mind the type of richness u mean cos hehehe
whatever u do u ask God to help u to get a husband of ur desire. cool

Even with our University system, a guy that's still in school at the age of 30, for me is not an average guy. He is below average. Of course there could be some circumastances that can be excused, but generally, its not acceptable to me.

@ 30, a guy should be looking to start his family (even with the Nigeria system) and how can he do that if he dosent have all those thinsg I listed. A guy that's still struggling to get there at 35 is a mediocre as far as I'm concerned. Not that I judge them, I just dont want to end up with them!

No, that's not the case here. Fine, I've been exposed to money, but my wants come from the kind of life I want to live. I'm going to take my husband places for sure, but I need to feel he's worth it to bgin with.

Contrary to what you guys think, I'm not and will never be a burden to any man. My family will survive with or without my hubbyu's money. I'll just feel better if he has the money.  wink
