You're talking nonsense. Marriage isn't the ultimate purpose of a man. I'm 41 although I married at 27 and divorced at 36.. I see nothing special about it. I love my peace now with my 2 daughters. Nothing in this world beats that

Ibechris2:
I have been in marriage for 8years.

Money has never been a problem to us and she has often proven to be financially honest since we got married and why should I hide things from her.

For the fact that I am not single,I now work and earn for the family and that is all.

Truvelisback:
Very tricky, bro. As a matter of fact, there are some things I don't want to spill here so that our women here no go code. Na we guys know what's up.

Sapasenator:
At first, I thought we were on the same page and disclosed everything, it cam back to bite me in the butt.

I learnt very quickly.

Sapasenator:
Never make that mistake? I also don't want to know what she earns.
Never let her know when you get a raise or promotion.

Never have a joint account in your main account for income.

You become nothing if you lose your element of unpredictability and surprise.

I learned the hard way!

Please guys, by all means, take care of your woman but never under any condition, allow financial see finish.

This has nothing to do with the Igbos. If you are Igbo (you might not be) then please do not get involved.

I warned you as early as December last year.

I said start buying dollar and keep in your houses. You didn't listen.

I said your govt is stealing your money in dollars. You didn't listen.

I told you I have info you don't have. You didn't listen.

Another information for you. A bag of rice is heading to #95,000.00. Go buy rice now.

If you like,don't heed my last warning.

Notfogotten:
Today's naira exchanges for NGN1,700.00.

Fuel landing cost now at NGN1,020.00

I card of paracetamol to sell at NGN500.00

A bag of cement now NGN 10,000.00

Change you Naira to Dollar now that you have the time.

Your politicians are stealing your naira and converting them to USD.

The Anti-Jakpa Crew will soon come for your head....

My only wish is that more people post with their real names. Sometimes it's hard to assign any credibility to anonymous comments.

Your story if true would be particularly interesting because we're subjected to a conventional wisdom about North America & Western Europe that

1) High earners live better in Nigeria than in those countries

2) Migration to those countries after age 40 is a losing proposition

3) Illegal immigrants suffer untold privations and dangers there

4) Racism is a continuous and unavoidable fact of life that will make life uncomfortable and dangerous.

5) Nobody can save money in those places and in fact the average Nigerian is wealthier than even Natives of Western countries.

You would have real life experiences to address at least 3 of these issues. Though you haven't been there a long time, you can give us immediate impressions.

Question- by your own observations, what percent of Nigerians earn over 1 million naira per month? What percentage at age 40?

Indeed the most important and life changing wisdom about Nigeria is to know that the country has NEVER been rich or developed. Once you realize this your outlook takes a drastic turn.

Anyway thanks 😊

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Tallesty1:
LOL. I don't understand why she should know how much you earn, even if she is the proverbial woman. Work hard, make your money, and take good care of the wife of your youth and your kids.

How much you earn or have is not her business as long as you're living up to your responsibilities. If she works and you guys have a joint account, that's cool. What is in your personal account is not her business, at least until she becomes your soulmate.

You people can share ideas, discuss your investments and even plan it, ensure she feels it when you make profit but it ends there, total income is not her business.

Humans can be wicked and evil, and they can do and undo; they can change any minute. Trust no one easily.

Take good care of her, take very good care of her, take more good care of her but keep your finances to yourself until she..... you are a man, you should know when.


Please note that this may not apply to all couples.

And I say you are wrong.
Nigeria can be fixed
And will be fixed

Another one that reads something positive about President Tinubu and must jump in without understanding what was written. Who do Una did sef? Where did I say Baba Kékeré didn't work in Lagos state?

Per the blueprint I referred to, find out yourself, I am not indulging you. Feel free to move on to other President Tinubu threads if you can't find out yourself, I myself will not cry too much over it.

just two months after ke. you're a badt guy
