My concern here is, must you know how much your partner earn, taking care of the family is very much important than that, the question here should be, "can you take care of a family, if the answer is yes then screw how much he or she earn

Very interesting topic.

As a single its advisable you open up to the girl you're dating. Just six months into the relationship or when you feel you want to settle down. Watch her closely, monitor her actions and choices she makes.

Did she become materialistic?

Did her taste in standard of living skyrocket?

If she was spending little on you did she later stop?

You can give her an amount of money you can afford to loose to keep. Can she return the money to you without stories? (Ask her for the money without giving her notice)

These stuffs will help you make a better choice.

Be vigilante. Marriage is very scary when you marry wrong.


Edited: give her what you can afford to loose for safekeeping. Try her out with that.

u had no money and she was aware and couldnt help you out?

I wonder what you all marry these days.

I had no money doesn't mean I was dead broke. I had no money because I was embarking on project, not that we couldn't eat or starving. We were OK.

I intentionally do not seek her assistance now, she has her own role to play and moreover I am not incapacitated.

She needs to have her own money too

You can give her a 5-10% of your salary to keep. Can she return the money to you without stories? (Ask her for the money without giving her notice)

Give Nigerian girlfriend 10% of your salary and hope she would return it....?? Haaaaaaa

oh my sweet mother God will always bless you for me, if you were to be like this lady am very sure I wouldn't have reached the level I am today. We need to scrutinize the "thing" we want to marry into our homes.

Not telling your wife how much you earn is actually not the issue. You should be principled when it comes to dealings with your finances. Women have a way of testing your financial elasticity; they will gradually push you to breaking point. Your reaction to their demands will make them know if you have reached your limit.

Here is what my married friend told me "don't ever allow your wife know how much you are earning because if she knows she would keep demanding until she is sure you salary is finished".
That was his on personal experience. According to him he didn't tell his wife about subsequent promotions.

it depends on the kind of woman.

No the wife knew how much he was earning when they got married; he just realised she keeps making demands until the money is finished so he didn't tell her about subsequent promotions and the pay rise that comes with it.

It doesn't change anything. All women are like that. They will request for the maximum Available funds

Maybe because your income should actually be kept private

Exactly, which is usually higher than what the man has.

If a woman know that you have N20k, her bill would be N19,500.
However, when she doesn't know that all you have is N20k, she would ask for N120k. It's not her fault it's the way they are made.

bros no dey lie give yourself..it does not depend on any kind of women..they are all the same.

They will say they can manage with you and still say afterall he is earning so so and so salary so why cant he spend.


If you observe this thread. Check from page 1 to 12, many ladies avoided this thread because they know its the truth.

Ratio of males to females commenting is like 98:2

Look. Bro, speak for yourself only. You cannot know the mind of a woman until you put her to the test without a prior notice.

What if the guy has a loan he is paying with the 50,000.
So he tells you 200,000 so all the plans you have should be on that amount

true brother..because their block heads will not reason that there are deductions of which what might even be left for your pocket money would be say 60k, the rest 140k constitutes of monthly deductions for rent, feeding, bills at home, loans, monthly land deductions, emergency taxings from family, data subs, transportation money for the month for work.


No, they wont think of these things because they have not be in such shoes.

After few months, her brother again got a new car and I asked her again but she said she doesn't want to ask her brother such question, mind u she's very close to her brother and I'm asking her all that to be inclined generally in the market world just in case I needed to get some for myself.

Just last month I changed my phone, a very classy one for that matter that isn't up to 200k, boom my girl beging dey heep me questions, where did I buy it? I told her, when? I told her, for how much? I told her. But the one wey make me change am for her was she asked me how did I get the money?? Omo I mad oo. Since then she just dey on low the play emotional victim but me no dey even see am..

Very baised set of people..

If only the reason you lot ask the question is to help plan the usage of the money, while adding your earnings to it.

Simple illustration: man earns 250k, wife earns 120k.

They both contribute 150k and 50k monthly for home expenses.

There will be no complains n marriage will be sweet but NO.

Best reply. Case closed.
