Ok guys,here is another topic for us to interract! Before getting married,which of these factors should be considered first?
Should one get married because one is up to the age of marriage or should one get married because one has earned enough money?
If u say money,what if u dont make it,wont u get married?
#All factors being equal.
Over to you_

Looking @ it frm a male angle age has got nothing 2 do wt marriage cos the male gender needs to be able to fend for himself even before think of getting married.he needs to have a good job or business(steady income). But from a female perspective age does count.

i am of the firm believe that a man should not rush to marry if u re not financially stable to fend for atleast two persons. there is no need bringing somebody into your life to come and suffer for your financial consequences.

no doubt some people will argue that what if the lady is financially stable to take care of the family.it does not ultimately favour the man in the long run.

i strongly believe that the best time a guy can make money is when he is below 35 or un married. once u re committed in marriage, you can only start consolidating and not breaking new grounds.

my 2cents

what if he remains poor through out? Would the man remain single forever? Take 9ja as an example,parent pressure is always on the man!

Cash $$$$$ but ideally both

young money,cash money! can a 20 yr old dude wif cash get married??

for me i think, 30 is ideal for a man to marry. am doing very well by God's grace, am waiting for my 30th birthday to settle that matter meanwhile am seriously searching for that one because 2 years is not far from here.

@op
neither of the two, and here is why

if you say money, the next question is how much, now that would be a very vague criteria to use as each person
has a different level to attain before getting married

if you say age, may i remind you that some adults still think like kids, male and female alike,

for me i would say that a man should get married when he is mentally capable to handle the responsibilities that comes with
getting married and STAYING married, you should only get married when you are ready to make the commitment of starting, maintaining, and protecting
a family.
if you still have the 'me' mentality in you, then save everybody the transport fare of coming to your marriage ceremony.

too many boys and girls are gettting married these days

true talk..it so sardonic and lugubrious! The rate of divorce in this our age is just too much. As u rightly said,MEN ARE NOT BORN,MEN ARE MADE. We can have a man of 18 and a boy of 35.

what if one is up to the age of marriage and hasn't d finance to build a home.its not just about getting married,producing childern and letting them and their mum wallow in lack and want.I think if a man must get married then he must be able and capable to fend for he's family.and most pepo would ask,what if a man is of age and isn't buoyant enough so should he stay unmarried?well that's where the term FOCUS and goal comes in and that's why its preety cool to plan oneslife early enough.the next question many would likely ask is,so because a guy of about 23 to about 25 has made money should he then get married?well most times and especially in this generation,people tend to have more understanding and a high level of wisdom much more than their age.so if a 23 years old guy has an understanding of marriage and is buoyant enough,nothing really is wrong if he gets married so far the understanding of the term MARRIAGE IS THERE•well it all boils down to planning oneslife and knowing what you want•

I did see it and I replied also.

na money i go first consider first oooo.if u no get money tell me wich babe go gree marry u

From male perspective i think as soon as a man feels the need to have a companion and can fend for the family, even if he cannot meet every need. As long as he gets an understanding and hardworking woman, he can go ahead, with time and God on their side, they will make it.
