You can't just calculate it man, it's like calculating how much u have spent from 2015 till date.. How God will do it is none your concerns . Just work hard and stay focus. That's all

Living together as husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend that you are already planning 2-3 children?

Do you want to plan your budget on others reality?

Some family with a family size of 5 spend N100k monthly and some with same size spend at least N500k monthly.

Start living together for a week long first.
Try and see if you can spend 15k in a week apart from clothing. Then multiply 4 weeks by 15k..


The current economic realities will shock you

Start with 1 child first, you will figure everything out on your own from then onwards...I assure you.

Well,is it not better u marry that ur girl friend legally if truly u love her as u claimed.

Aside that,currently I have 3children and I must tell u the truth,reserve ur love for now and put ur financial house in order before u bring that beautiful lady in. Cost of running a house has gone up such that most families are not finding it easy these days except u want to live in a face me I face u kind of house.

Advice:
If ur wife isnt working,pls reserve at least one 500k naira down annually for ur children upkeep. Which include school fees,clothing excluding accommodation which when added,could gulp 1.2million.
