i love Nairaland and Nairalanders,thanks all
seun you are a live saver

120K is more than enough provided that you guys plan well. I know a man who earns 30K a month & the wife earns 20K. They stay in a one room(self-contained) & they have 8 children who all look healthy & well fed. Yes,you may never see them wearing the latest designer threads but they are living within their means.

will he pay house rent on monthly basis?

coogar:

you don't pay house rent?

It depends on your person. You can actually do it if you're the type that can plan well and care-less what others say. Your location is also important, hope you don't stay in PH, Abuja. Still, with proper planning you can pull through.
Keep hunting for better job because baby go soon come join una!

Joy2Dwise: Aside yearly housing and medical allowance. I married 3 years back when I was earning a total monthly package of  67k. Was living in 3 bedroom flat then but have to move a a 2 Bdrm apartment after marriage, though my yearly housing allowance is two times what I spend in rent for a year. Had no car then because I lost the one I had to a ghastly accident. My wife is not a spendthrift so we manged not to live above our income.

My earning has recently doubled as a result of yearly increments and promotion an we now have 2 cars and two plots of land in eti osa which we plan to develop in a couple of months. My wife is yet to get a job and that makes me a sole bread winner in a family of 4. I know a couple of guys who earn 3 times that amount but still run to me before month end for loan. The bottomline is that we are not spendthrifts, but that doesnt mean we are misers because we stil travel out of the courntry once in 2 yrs for vacation. If I can get married with 67k monthly earning, I dont know why you cant with almost 2 times that amount. Good luck.

I don't believe this story. Please forgive me.
