They can date and fvk a guy who earns less in all styles, they can cook for him and even help him tidy up his room but will frown. At getting married to same guy.

Some ladies baffle me.

Wealth is progressive and life has a way of changing pictures so a guy who earns 40k today may be earning 1M tomorrow and a guy earning 2M a month today may be so jobless and broke tomorrow...

The bottom line is for every lady to be as financially independent as possible so she won't put all her hope on the guy.

when you read this then you will know women are way smarter than most Nigeria guys


This is why men simp because money is the only real value men can give to women.

The same way pussy is the only real value a woman can give to a man.

Unfortunately, men want a woman's pussy more than women want a man's money... That's why men spend so much to own a single woman and make her happy while the woman gives so little sex and doesn't care

Who said anything about being born with a silver spoon and what does that have to do with earning power? undecided

As for the statement in bold, so because these couples live happily on less than 50k a month, we should stop speaking up against poverty and maybe start celebrating it then? There are people who fund happiness even while living homeless, that's no reason not to speak up against homelessness abeg! undecided

Then maybe you should learn to calm down & read... in the same bolded quote you referred to, I also spoke about working hard.

No matter how you speak against poverty, the reality is that not everyone can be rich or wealthy. So what do you want those people to do? Steal? Commit fraud like the yahoo boys some persons seem to praise these days as smart or what?

Anyway, maybe you have the solution to world poverty, if so, I will defer to your position on the issue.

It is not about the salary of the man. It's about being an hustler. Anyone that tells you salary is enough to survive or sustain a family is just deceiving himself. The higher the salary, the higher the expenses.

As a civil servant, that's my take home. I have about 4 different other hustle that bring money. I don't even rely on the salary.

YorubaLord:
Ok, what if the lady is earning below N50K, should any guy marry her? angry
Your head dey there.

Any guy that is earning below 50k shouldn't think of getting married. The same thing apply to ladies that are also earning below 50k.

No guy or any lady should marry a liability.

Why does it always has to be based on what the male has to offer or how much he earns so the woman jst come empty handed and headed
This life no jst balance
Because right from time, it's the responsibility of the man to take care of his family. Our fathers took care of our mothers, same with our grandfathers.

Then allow them to get old in ur custody now, its not all abt how they started but the plans and vision they have together. Ask Obi Cabana n his wife how they started and how they are today..

So all those that did not marry people less than 50k have become old, stop fooling yourself. Financial capability is very key in marriage

What would be the contribution of the woman?
What about the prospect of the man? You can start a family with your man with any amount of combined income, just make sure both of you grow financially as your family grows. A family starts with two people, not with three.

Iyaebe:
What you earn shouldn't determine when and if you should marry.

Charmingrascal:
My Sis husband was earning less than 40 thousand when they got married 8 years ago.

Dude is now a millionaire, with his own investments.
It is not really about what he earns it about how smart and hard he can hustle to change his life.

It is about focus and determination to earn more

I started a family when I was in NYSC serving in a community secondary school in 2011, not with NNPC, CBN or FIRS. Came back to a 10k monthly job, wife too, 10k a month. I knew that I had to grow fast financially to accommodate my family that would soon start growing. Today, I have 8 people working for me.

& that is what a number of people on this thread fail to understand.

As long as the op has not placed any specific criteria other than earning less than 50k pm, then a lot of Nigerians are married earning even less.

There are thousands of male junior staff in private & public organisations earning less whom women have, by choice or condition, married, are raising kids & even schooling, same way there are thousands of ladies who would rather remain single if that was the only option they had.

To each, thier own. No one can be right or wrong in a matter like this.

Thank you for the bolded. Funnily, nowaday wives are fast neglecting their roles which our mothers & grandmothers did with good hearts.

They want equity in the homes. They want the men to help with chores & still expect them to do the bolded without them (the wives) contributing anything. How could someone eat his/her cake & still have it?

As for me, ko le work. We either share the bills & chores or you do the needful & I do the spending.

1. You keep bringing up unrelated issues. Even the man who earns only 20K a month also works hard. That doesn't remove from the fact that what is lives is abject poverty. undecided

2. This isn't about being rich but about earning at least enough to exist above the poverty line, especially in marriage. undecided

3. This thread is about a simple question and a marriage planned on a salary of 50K is poverty. undecided

These broke men have the worst attitude too, always angry for nothing. Again, I somersault and pass. No, thank you.

Same thing applies with women. I can't marry a lady who doesn't earn atleast N200k a month with a good plan to step up in years to come
