guy you don't understand what i am saying. @ rezzy said no girl would want to suffer which means that girls depend on fortunes of men, I hate this mentality and i hope my wife will not marry me on the ground that i am rich or successful because it may be on that bases that she would abandon me

why would people insist they must be rich before they get married, must people do a million naira wedding ?  i think a court wedding wont cost =N=50,000 ($350) and you don't neccessarily need to invite every body you no.
             I will soon get married if my babe completes her degree.

The problem is beyond just getting married with 50k or whatever, what i personally think is very important to me is aftermath of the wedding. wedding is just to tell the whole world that both of you are married, but after that there is more to it.

I wont encourage anybody to marry early. Marriage is not a 'spur of the moment' act that you engage in. It requires commitement for the rest of your life, and maturity on both partners. And don't forget that finances play an important role in our culture. When you are out of college in your early 20's, you may still have some road blocks ahead of you. Nigerian women, some of them are materialistic, and they want to date a well heeled guy, with a car and a house. By the time you finish renting your apartment, buying money, and fulfilling your family responsibilities, if you are the first born, ol'boy, you don old finish. Wedding itself is expensive, and when you have to do trado and white wedding, that is a drain in your pocket.

In America, you don't need that ceremony to be married. All what you do is to go to Court, pay ten or 20 dollars and you are married in the eyes of the law. Organize party the following weekend to celebrate your status as a married man. Nigeria, you pay dowry, buy gin for your father inlaw, lace for your mother inlaw, chocolate for your little brother inlaw, kolanuts for your grandfather in law, walking cane for the ,  and the money don disappear.

The reason why guys in yankees have kids quite early is that the system is different. Here a girl in high school gets pregnant, and she is automatically qualified for welfare. Can you imagine that? Before welfare was restructred by Clinton, some narrow minded women had kids in order to get more money from the federal government, without working.

Teenage pregnancy is a factor. Dont be suprised to see a woman in her late thirties being a grandmother. I have seen at least 2 cases.

@Ndipe

If the nigerian government introduce this type of welfare package for girls in our high schools, even guys too will find a way of getting pregnant  Grin
 The money one need to pay 'the in-laws' is killing and in some cases, it has perhaps been the reason why some men keep postponing their wedding.
