@Op; it takes a strong man to marry a woman richer and more educated then him. On the other hand, it takes a humble and virtuous woman with good character to not lord it over her man if she is richer and more educated than him. Some women have this instinct in them to belittle a man who is not at par with them be it with education/riches. A woman would need to train her instincts to remember that even though she is richer and more educated than her man; he’s still the head of the home and should be respected as such accordingly. Men are advised to watch their lady closely in the area of her trying to correct your every wrong due to her being more educated and richer. If that occurs, then that man should know that problems would arise if that misconception is not addressed immediately. Just as unemployed women marry employed men; why can’t the same be for an unemployed man marrying an employed lady? It’s not as if the man would remain unemployed in the long-run through the marriage. With her help and encouragement, he can get a job/business later on. Loyalty to ones mate comes from within and not related to whether the person is educated, rich or unemployed as the case me be. In all, marriage should be to a partner who you can have/build a happy home with; irrespective of whether they are richer, more educated or unemployed. I rest my case 3 Likes 2 Shares |

More educated than me? - it will hard to find such a woman based on my projection educationally, by the time I'm mentally ready for marriage. That's if I ever wanna get married. Heck, right now, I'm far more educated than the overwhelming majority of chics around my age. And I would likely marry someone about 3-7 younger than me. So, this one is basically up in the air. Richer than me? - I don't mind and I honestly don't care about how much anyone has got. Riches come and go, and I'm self-made - got my own shiit. So this shouldn't be a problem. And it's more or less a blessing in disguise, since she won't be a pest trying to suck my money. I'd take her everyday of the week. 1 Like |

oreos:Anyways on some real talk, I'm not illiterate myself so a PhD is just extra to me at this point. I'm not a professor and don't have any need for it. I had HND in Nigeria, a BSc here in the US and two Masters here in the US as well. Does that still make me less than someone with a PhD? As far as I know, i could have spent the same length of time to get a PhD while working on the second Masters. At the end of the day, it's who actually makes more money that matters, so education only counts to some point for me. I've read enough and I'm done. |

Personally, I wouldn't marry a man who is unemployed. However, if he was already my husband and lost his job, I would stand by and support him in his time of need. I don't think that a man should be intimidated by a woman who is educated and wants to better her life since she will be able to contribute her part financially to the marriage. 1 Like |

kstadaura: Why not? Haven't you seen poor women that are not marriage material? Majority of divorces involve women who earn less than their husbands. So level of earnings doesn't matter because a bad woman is a bad woman no matter what. There're good and bad poor women, the same applies to rich women or women who earn more than you. Everything depends on personality irrespective of social or economic class. 1 Like |

The kind of society we live in here in Nigeria makes it difficult for some men to entertain the idea of marrying a woman richer or more educated than he is, as opposed to how the society in the west is designed. That said, i can marry a woman richer than i am, but i have to be self reliant and capable of taking care of her myself... Richer than get levels. For example, consider these two scenerios Scenario 1 Man's networth= N10,000 Woman's networth= N2,000,000 Scenario 2 Man's networth=N10,000,000 Woman's networth= N15,000,000- N20,000,000 I would consider marrying my girlfriend if the situation looks similar to the second scenerio, but anybody who tries scenario 1, sorry would be his name As for education, it is not possible, except there is a higher degree than PhD |
