Hello guys,

I'm going to be brief,

Im starting to receive pressure from family to get married, mind you im just 27 and i have a job, payment is average if compared to the nigeria economy monthly basis if i work pretty hard 200k upward. It's not really abt the money but my family feels I'm all prepared to be married as at now. Thou I have the intention of traveling to the west and starting a life, what I'm gonna do there I don't know yet, thus I'm still keeping a low profile on that not letting family know.

I just need candid advise from matured minds.

Is it not too early to marry?

Can 200k sustain a family pretty well?

. I don't want my family lacking, atleast my wife and my kids should be able to get thier demands averagely met.

I need experience people to guide me out here. Thanks

It depends on the standard of living you want for your family.

For how long have you been earning the 200k?

If you should lose your job today, how many months or years will you be able to sustain yourself without another job?

As I explained earlier.. I dnt feel I need a family now.. Family pressures bro... So at least an average family lifestyle that gets all she needs

If you have the intention of travelling out to the west then don't get married. I will advice you focus your attention on your travelling out plans considering your age.

200k monthly income with other reliable source of income should be able to sustain any marriage

I will suggest you focus on your travelling out plans, career development and establishing more source of income for now because Marriage and work is pretty much demanding and leave no or little room for self growth

What's your location

With 200k monthly u can live as a king in some locations.

27 is quite young for a man u need more maturity say by 30 yrs max u can get married

200k is enough to start a family with a productive wife

Very few 40 yrs old men earn up to 200k but almost all 40 yrs old men are married except the foolish ones that are fools at 40

Oh thnks.. I pretty much talk to them abt career growth and how marriage might limit that..... But my unkle keeps saying he continued his career after he got married... And look how successful his become...
They keep insisting that early marriage wud lead to a early and a stable future especially with the kids

Seriously, dnt make me laff here... Unfortunately I dnt have a mum to do that... So the pressure is frm dad and unkle, his wife and others.... Mentally, I can't really tell... If feels exciting, but reality I've always gotten frm alot of stories shared here

Op please I beg you listen to this advice. I will suggest you concentrate on your travelling plans because once you get hitched, the wife and kids responsibilities will bog you down. In addition, I'm sure you don't wanna start breeding into this shit hole call Naija. 200 k/per month is okay as a seed money for you to use and build your life. Please do that. No let konji/fine ladies flocking around to deceive you. Be warned!

Ok gotten, but do u think dat wouldn't hinder me getting a new life in the west

So in your own opinion, any man not married at 40 is a fool?
The way people reason at times.

Many people are married with under N100K salaries, some even marry without a means of livelihood. N200K is good, plan your family, 2 kids max, you will live like a King. The more kids you have, the more expenses you will need to cater for

So many factors involved here.
We are talking about location, a working/dependent wife, do you plan to have kids immediately.
I will advise you keep that marriage thing on hold.
Leave this country as quickly as you can. Your leaders don't care about your unborn kids.
If na konji dey worry you, I suggest the beer parlor thread.

Currently in ota, exactly I feel 27 is young but they make me feel I'm so old.

Whats your meaning of a productive wife?

Are you saying i should get married, not considering my tots of starting a life in the west.. You didn't even say a word considering that.... Thanks tho

As regards the right age to marry....there is non. It's up to you pal, but 5 years from now at age 32 wouldn't be bad. Just my opinion though. Imagine what you would have achieved by then all things being equal.

Your income isn't the problem, the problem is you are not ready. Marry when you are psychologically ready for it. No be your parents go help you face the challenges.

Are you an only son?
