Funny comments. Too many comedians on Nairaland. I don laugh tire.

Go ahead, as for me, Marriage is a NO NO....

Run away bro

my brother it depends on the girl and the family you are marrying from. when I did my marriage last year I had only #250k. we did a low key Traditional wedding and church wedding of about 100 and 300 guests respectively. we used the church premises as reception venue. my wife's family was supportive including my family too.

marriage are not for kids or are you adult ?

Dear nairalanders,
I have just 200k in my account and my parents are already forcing me to get married. I told them to let me concentrate on my business first , they refused and saying No time. Please I need your advice on this matter.
.

Which advise again, just run for your dear life except your are marrying dangote's daughter who's link can help turn your 200k to 2billion through your business skills overnight. Else na the wedding go chop the 200k plus gbese wey go follow! Lol
Better concentrate on being a lil more financially stable, and theres really no time that's too late for what you are ready for.

DZTech:
money is d mirage u people keep facing.
it depends on him and her.
a down to earth girl will ignore 'notice me' wastage.
a one day affair will pass.
if they live on his earnings and save hers for future investments, they'll do well.
d only qtn is if he can find an understanding lady.

thats the fact

Is not a bad ideal but my guy marriage no be child's play... well have happened to mc alot of weddings and when i ask the couple how much they had before planning their wedding most of them dont have up to 50k, so my brother it doesnt matter but make sure you marry a woman that have something to offer.... abeg make i go select beans

no try am.except u one dig ur grave.that money no even reach u buy pampers.some babies use up to 6 pampers everyday multiply by 365 days an the years keep counting for like 3yrs before pampers go stop.I use pampers as an example for u to widen up.
secondly, u go feed ur wife.remember even if ur wife get work she go still need an collect money from you as the head of the family to run the house that is women for you.am not surprise. so he who have ears make him hear. except u one live from hand to mouth say na marriage you they or abject poverty.That is the real truth @ op those that will quote me wrong should take back door.

tell dem ur present worth oo. .maybe dey want to help you marry and care for d woman ...if not run for ur life. ..u no even need to get friends now talk less of girlfriend

You people are the problems we have in this country, so, if he is of a "certain age", automatically, it wouldn't matter whether he has the financial wherewithal to take care of a family? This is how we arrived at this problem of street kids that grow up to swell the crime rate in the already unsafe society we live in.

Biggty:
How old are you op? Your parents may have genuine reason in wanting to force you to marry right now

Please Have You Told Them How Much Infant Formula Is, Diaper Nko? They Won't Be There When The Calculations Start.

The obsession with marriage in this country is sickening. If his parents channel that same urgency, zeal and concern they are using to force him to getting married into rallying round to get him more capital for his business or lobbying for a better job for him., the guy will on his own gladly get married without needing anyone to push him.
Cos from the headlines, he's obviously trying to sort out his finances before getting married. Which is the logical thing to do.

aanuoluwami14:


Don't allow pressure from your parents to lead you to your early grave. Let them know that marriage is not a day wedding nor a year programme. Follow your plans. Best of luck

the way you guys talk like little children. did the guy tell you how old he is ? is he an only son ? given the above will you not mount pressure on your own son to marry? will the 200k marry the girl is it that he does not make another more money apart from the 200k. i spent over 1m on my marriage. but not in a single day. who told him he will finish all his marriage in one day? pls make una grow up

Believe me when I say no one saves money for marriage, but you can actually get married with little you have and plan your life perfectly after marriage, you and your wife can decide to have kids after 2years of marriage or better still try manage whatever job kr business you have.
Waiting for big money in account before getting married can make you marry late and make you start family at early stage. People wey no get that kind of money for account sef don marry and get 3pikins wey dey go school sef.

You want him to become a debtor like those who were forced to marry because of age.

The information about your family is scanty to give you a reasonable advice. But remember a wrong marriage is worst than life imprisionment.

DZTech:
ask all those married men who lost their jobs in 2016, 2017 recession.
shey dia marriage don end?
life hard, yes.
but life goes on.
"he who finds a wife finds a good thing", abi?

He should face the risk if becoming a debtor

If you want to marry, find a way if getting out of this country. Don't try and settle down here

Is it a good thing to marry unprepared and begin borrow money up-and-down.

Bro to buy mofix 3200 don tire me. My son Some times use like 4 diapers in a day

. To be ready for marriage is not having enough money, it's mentally ready plus finding ur one true love. Other stuff like money will surely grow out of it(slowly that you won't even notice). Financial stability is different strory, the rich also borrow (just not from you). I don't think there's a formula to successful marriage when it comes to money, I have seen people who were rich but gradually became poor after marriage, I have also had and saw little (due to my age) those who doesn't have a dime become much more wealthy afterwards. Let me also say that successful marriage is not always having money or no money, Family can be sustained (though difficult without the right mind) with both little or much money and can as well be mismanaged.

So, how much do u want to have before getting married?

Bros, if u knw what good ur parents are doing for u now, u will embrace their advice.
All u need do is to look out for a good and cool headed girl to marry. If u succeed in this, whaoo, u will see ur live get more organized and u will become more responsible.

Marry early, have kids early, train them when u are still strong, retire early, enjoy life, live longer and stress free old age.

You better be a man and stand your ground

Because if you are pushed into a life altering decision like marriage when you are not prepared for it, You will so regret it.

ChikezieU:
yes

And you believed 200k is enough to do trad n start a married life?? You pointed our facts which I actually liked but you ignored the financial aspect and the amount we are talking of here.

DZTech:
