I lost my job last 2 months and its been a hard time getting a new job. That's besides the point. I asked this question for strictly married women who knows how to manage a home.

If u don't have an advice for me then please its best u keep quiet

sadly to say...this is the only advice that can help you. you don't have any other means you can source out money,moreover, deep down inside of you,you already know that that money can never and will never be enough or you can force him to add more to the money. Stop asking unwarranted questions when you already know the answer...

U are very funny and lucky to have a caring husband.come oyo state and come and see husbands.
Here in oyo we give our wife's with six kids 300 naira daily for feeding.calculate dat times seven.u see u av a caring and loving husband

You need to support the hustle, life is hard in Nigeria these days. Stop complaining, look for something to support your family.

Who's this hegoat?

Mariangeles:


Exactly why you shouldn't pry.

and its on public space... why didn't you device a formula on how she can manage 4k a week rather than faulting other's opinion?

vickydevoka:

When I say person way no get money no suppose marry Dem go say I be winch. Na woman go ginger u make u marry na same woman go tell de world say u useless n lazy. Chai. Marry beg me tire say make i marry her I no gree despite she's too beautiful. When money finish now I go hear am. I need woman way get money too irrespective on her looks. If pikin too worwor we go use our money do am Plastic surgery if na boy we born him go manage en look like dat go make money

You don talk am finish.

That money fit be snacks money for the kids but here she is complaining.

How can a man drop 4k for a family of 4 daily feeding for one week?

These days most men check the financial capability of their intending spouses before they proceed with them, not because they are after it but to avoid see finish and things like this.

You will be on your own doing well o, boom one lady go carry herself come dey disturb your life with marriage. If you do mistake marry her when you are not ready, you don enter because na that same mouth she go use yab you if things no go well.

Most of them if not all of them believe that once a man has a stable source of income, an apartment etc, that he should be ready for marriage.

I have them(ladies ready to settle down) around me but I am observing(studying) them all, none of them fit make me marry when I am not yet ready.

omaclarry:


What is mimomimo?

Milkies candies.

The 4k is that for your children's tp to school for the week or what?

Klass99:


Hmm interesting!

Have you ever taken them up on their offer? Or are you tempted to?

These women you mentioned, do they have an income source of their own via business or jobs?

One is my ex and knows I am nice enough to give her at least 10-20k after sex. The other is just a married friend who suddenly has been telling me bad things about her hubby and wants to come stop by at my office. She has asked alot about my sex life ao i know where that is going.
My ex sells shoes , bags and clothings on her whatsapp and facebook. The other sells lands on her whatsapp status too.

Kobojunkie:
So you are offended by my asking if you have a job or not? OK.

you should have been open by telling her to go look for something to assist the situation...the only reason she's angry is because you're even making it subtle a bit. let her continue to look for a way she can manage 4k when its glaring to even the dead that that feat is unattainable in this present Nigeria...yeye women and their supporters,no mind them joor

Kobojunkie:
Is there such a thing as "enough work" where your very own family is involved?

In single-parent homes for instance, you find single mothers/fathers who take care of their kids, and house and also work.... so what in the world do you mean by "that is enough work ...."?

Would you have known if truly she doesn't have then finances to contribute if I hasn't at least inquired about her employment status?

What's with the stupid emoji you keep using, are you in Pry 2?

I'm sorry about your job loss. N4,000 a week is quite small. I really can't think of how that can be stretched to feed 2 kids for 7 days in this economy. I hope God will open up a way for you to supplement your income soon. Meanwhile, you could try replacing your children's protein source with eggs. They might be cheaper than meat or fish. I'd suggest you buy one tuber of yam for each week and then cook rice with what's left. Better days are ahead by God's grace.

you involved sacarsm

Jeon:
4k a week?
Inside the 4k we have transportation fee,foodstuffs fee , snacks fee,mimomimo fee for 2 persons in this recession . Mtcheew my dear ur husband is not feeling fine.

Jungkook is a right.

WTF....me that is single 10k cannot even carry me for a week.

elantraceey:
Get a job so that you'll have yours to add to it. Things are difficult for most people in this country right now.

the most sensible comment so far

He brings 4000, you bring your own 4000. That's 8000, it will be better than just 4000

Woman find work to help in completing the money to what it should be. Stop complaining

Ishilove post=107284471:
Op asked for advice from married women but people have turned it to presidential debate. Nigerians, I shake breast for una.

that question is illogical even to the blind...she even mentioned the impossibility of of using such amount in a comment back.

She's here to cause chaos among the good people of nairaland nothing more...

You're even kind in using the word' presidential debate'...you should have used the word 'trouble' cos that's what it is....

Golferty:



What kind of timetable is that? I planned on buying irish potato to fry for snacks but just a bottle of groundnut oil will finish the money.
Please I'll be happy if you can also draw a timetable for me
I will show my husband this thread so he can see what everyone thinks of the amount he gives me.

No! please stay away from Irish, it's not fulling at all, go for sweet potato instead, it doesn't drink much oil, it's fulling and it's sweet, you can boil it if you don't have oil, plus it's got good nutrients.
plus indomie is below N150 per 120g, that's enough for one kid, you can do with garri on the side,

Golferty:
This is strictly for married women

Please how can I manage 4k for a week? I have 2 kids, one is in primary 3, the other one is in nursery and they go to school each day. Will it be possible?
Please mothers on nairaland, how will you stretch it for 7 days especially when there's no foodstuff in the house.

Omo suffer your suffer in peace and leave us alone. Came to a public forum to be disturbing us. Mtcheww

Then why is she asking a question on nairaland?

Is nairaland only between her and her husband?

Mariangeles:


Exactly why you shouldn't pry.

It depends on how much he is earning to determine wickedness or trying

Mariangeles:


So what if she wants to be a housewife?

Men, you keep amazing me everyday. We think so much alike. I'm guessing this is MariahAngeles. If not, please ignore.

Frankly 4k a week is not even enough for a youth corper that is living alone talkless of a mother and two kids. Half of that money will be spent on only snacks for the kids. Rabinna is N100 per pack. If you have to get 2 for your kids that's already N200. Abi is it bobo or viju? Things are expensive my dear.

ImaIma1:


The bolded is the MO of kobojunkie and default setting. He obviously lives in an ideal setting where things work out without much ado.

Kobojunkie it's not easy for everyone to get a job easily or start a business with the snap of a finger.

She lost her job just two months ago

, and the govt will not support till she gets a new job. It doesn't work that way in Nigeria.

that was what she said... a good and supportive woman will fry puf puf or do anything to support the family rather than asking silly question online....

pocohantas:

Don’t show him the thread. It might get nasty and he would find some comments insulting.

Get nasty? Ehn that's the real reason she should show him the thread. Insult is needed sometimes for rejuvenation of sense.

pocohantas:

I believe if he has more, he would do more. Everyone knows the situation of the country.

Nahh he won't, he is not being honest & he knows it.

A basic blue collar worker i.e BrickLayer or even white collar worker would eat 3 times daily.

Morning: Heavy food Bread & beans with coke - N700
Afternoon: Indomie from street side sellers - N700
Night: Rice with coke or water - N500.

That's averagely a total of N1900, so in 5 working days he has spent 10k and yet he wants a woman with 2 kids + him to spend 4k on foodstuffs in a week.

It is better to explain situation of things to your spouse instead of telling her she is lying over 4k.

Is that your fantasy? A woman that can fry puff puff to support you.

Always hear from the other side before jumping into conclusion. Do u know his financial strength before calling him heartless?
