Imagine stirring at your account balance & nodding your head saying to yourself, now I am ready for marriage.

How much do you think would give you that 'ginger' to propose to your girl? Abeg I no dey talk of "give girl belle & marry".

zero dinero... if you can take care of yourself AND date a babe with no money in your bank, then you can marry her with that same exact amount.

Honestly, if you are waiting to have billions in your account before you get married, you will grow old.

Modified:

I wanted to wait for me to have certain amount of money, but I couldn't wait any longer, at least I have a job paying me weak 6digit as salary, and my fiancee work in government establishment and also has a sewing shop.

So my wedding is April 17 &18 2020.

God will crown my effort with other family things I pray for.

No time abeg

There's no particular amount of money that ever makes one ready. If you're in with the right person with just 300, 000 naira, marriage will be bliss. You people should stop attaching happiness to money. Money is only a means to an end. undecided

Money is happiness and happiness is money.
You can't enjoy marriage without money, love doesn't feed us or pay the bills.
So that makes money very necessary.

let us be realistic tho, financial security is a very important factor. Money would influence the level of happiness in the relationship. Life is complex. That 300k wouldn't be enought to start up a family with at least three members.
The child's basic welfare, feeding, education, health care, etc. Apart from maturity, both physical and emotional, money is another solid foundation on which a decent marriage would built.

I'm very insecure. If i'm to get married and have kids, i would want them to have the best life has to offer. To have a safe future...
I must have a steady, well paying job. He must too.
I must have a good amount of money in the bank. Savings to lean back on (just in case). He must too.
I must have properties and other assets. He must too.

But this is for me.

For others, at least 3million in the bank. Plus a house and car.
Transportation and house rent can take alot out of one's salary...

People that have only 100, 300, 900k are getting married.

Other might have 5, 7, 10 million can still say they aren't ready financially.

The question is "how much would you have in your account before thinking of marriage"

The question need individual specific answers.

I don't want kids, so even if I earn 50k monthly income with no saving I'll go and marry i.e when I reach 32.

So if I can have a girlfriend, what's the difference? Just certificate grin

I think people who should worry about financial strength mostly applies to those that would be saddled with the responsibility that comes with rising children

sorry about your health though.. hope it's getting better

no. Read my other comment..
I believe in being financially independent. Not an attractive quality here in Africa, but that's me.
My mum was a widow with no backup. Even tho she married a 'worse than poor' man. If she had something doing, our lives would have been different...
If something bad is gonna happen to me in the future, i want as a mother, for my husband to be stable enough to give my kids the life they deserve.

That's if i choose to do something crazy as getting married.

Thanks!

thats because you wrongly assume that marrying someone automatically means having children with that person. there is a HUGE difference between marrying someone AND having a child with that same person.

- having a kid is a LIFELONG decision while you can separate from (and subsequently divorce) someone in just a few days.
- if you can both survive as a couple before marriage, why should anything be different after signing that piece of paper (aka if you both were happily eating garri before, then thats what you should settle with after marriage)
- whether married or single, nobody should ever dream of having children, unless they have the mean to properly care for these children (emotionally, physically and most importantly, FINANCIALLY )

are you saying that... if two broke people are happily dating and loving each other's broke self, if they suddenly get married (while still being broke) their happiness will suddenly vanish, because of lack of funds?!?!?!!?

feeding yourself and paying bills has absolutely NOTHING to do with marriage, and all to do with LIFE. if someone cant feed themselves and/or pay their bills then they shouldnt try to date (let alone marry) anyone, and they should instead get their priorities straight AND sort their lives out . there are many people out there who are broke after feeding and/paying their bills, that certainly does not mean they cant date

sadly, we all know that many women out there indeed see dating/marriage as a poverty alleviation tool.

Dating and marriage conditions are different. The former comes with less responsibility. While the later comes with more and full responsibility.

A Stable and reliable source of income is the perfect condition for getting married.
Without it, the young couple will quickly run out of cash and start to suffer even though there was N10m in the account before the wedding

pls, by all means, tell us all what are the responsibilities that you are talking about? better yet, why dont you tell us all what changes (in dating lovers life) the minute they get married?!
