Generally, marriage is the legal or formally recognized union of two people as partners in a personal relationship[Specifically a union between a man and a woman].

As we all know, most men[Not all] wait till they are financially buoyant enough to start up a family, because it's mainly a man's responsibility to pay the bills in his home, and he should be prepared.

But does that mean a lady who has only 2k in her account is finacially good to go or fit for marriage? I mean, like how much should a lady worth before accepting a marriage proposal from a man?

OPINIONS from either men/women will be welcomed.



Are you now a feminist? angry

Or is this misogyny at its peak? angry

I'm asking because you're a certified women shamer on Nairaland. angry

A lady should worth 5k
Re: How Much Should A Lady Worth Before Accepting A Marriage Proposal? by spiceadole: 12:08pm On Sep 27, 2018
A woman's financial worth is not important.
Most men don't care if a woman earns anything or not.
As long as a man is comfortable and can provide, foot bills, a woman doesn't think twice to accept his proposal.
On social media, men say they like independent ladies but in reality, they prefer to marry dependent women.
The reason is obvious.

A woman's worth is not based on finance.
It's based on her marital status and child bearing status.

If you have money and you are not married, you be olosho, ashewo, evening /night newspaper.

Who cares about a woman's money?? NOBODY

I'm a traditional man when it comes to conjugal union. A lady that I intend to settle down with must meet the following.

Young and fertile. I'm in my mid twenties, and won't settle for a girl that is at least five years younger than me, preferably 10.

She must be beautiful and in good shape.

Compatibility is a must. Need I say more?

Must be willing to have my kids before her 30, in her most fertile period of her life.

She must be a literate, not necessarily formal education, albeit, autodidactism will do.

She can be poor as hell, I don't care. But if that makes her a leach, then I'm not compatible with her.

She has the choice to work or not, although the livelihood of the family is my responsibility.

You have a very good point, but I think you misunderstood me.

I mean, as a lady you are, how much do you think a lady should atleast have before going into marriage?


A lady's character traits and virtues are more important than any amount she has in her account, especially in Africa. Even if she has a lot of money, our culture makes it such that the man still bears most of the financial burden.
As far as I'm concerned, any lady that either has a decent job or skill which can yield money and matches these up with sound character in the home front (including submission) is good to go.

Women should understand that being a woman doesn't automatically mean you are ready for marriage. If you are Jobless and can't contribute anything in a marriage then you are not ready.

Make sure you are working and support your spouse. Don't go to a man's house without financial support, don't just bring your hole and culinary tips to the table. Most men will abuse you, so no amount is too small or big. The point remains bring in some financial assistance to your marriage.
well said.

With the situation of the country, most youths are still trying to find their feet in their 20s. Like you said, most men wait till they are financially stable to get married. Now, if this man is in his 30s and as usual, looking for a girl in her early-mid twenties... It won't be very wise of him to expect much. If he wants more, he should look in his circle of working individuals, which would most likely consist of his age group.

To the question, I think if she has a sense of responsibility, is frugal, has a job/skill and can bring something to the table, she is good to go. It is now up to the man to decide if that something is okay for him.

Kai.. This Poco' get common sense wella. Let me ask you a question...

Don't take it personal, shey you be evening newspaper? Cos, most times, old news na better reference and reasonable key to the future.

First life experience matters,
1: Experience what goes in ones head, when rent payment is due. That means you must have lived on your own.
2: Learn what it means to economize your provisions till the end of the month.
3: Learn to say no even if you have something to give to someone who requested it knowing it will hurt you, if you gave it out.
4: Learn to go left, if all things do not turn right.
5: Learn not to interrupt your spouse, even if his opinions are wrong, later tell him you have a suggestion on what he said, but it is up to him to do it or not, even if he fails in that regard you will support him,
6: Learn not to support your spouse, if he plan to do evil.Psalms 1;1-3
7: God said Happy are those hearing the word of God and keep it, Luke 11 vs 28
Your financial worth does not matter. Money matter pertaining to women, an ibo adage said Nwata kpata Oru ji, osi na ya apkata oru ubochi, ma omaghi na oru ji puru igwu na otu ubochi.

Nigerian parents should drum this into the brains of their daughters!!!!

Marrying a family richer than your own also have its many abusive and humiliating implications.

They will thoroughly rubbish you and your family. The hole is not enough in this day and age except the man wants to suffer.
