See this goat. How many people dey earn 100k?
I dey squander 500k inside one month and I fit still survive with 30k a month it depends

Please, which job do you engage in

Rozross:
Rent, you can hardly get a room selfcon below 150k, feeding? Transportation? Health? Clothes and miscellaneous expenses? I need a genuine and true breakdown. See ehn most people you talked about living happily under the 100k monthly have supports they are not telling you of. I hate to pretend that all is good when I know I’m sweating it within. Let’s be realistic

But if you are a true realist, you should be realistic with yourself. You seems not to be wise.

He told you 20% for accommodation monthly. That is #20k if it is #100k monthly salary and that will be #240k for accommodation and you are there sounding so stupid and arguing blindly saying a self con is higher than #150k. The calculation that fellow gave was #240k for accommodation.

You are inflicted already with terribly low reasoning don't add extreme stupidity to it

Nothing but Brazilian wig.

wig bought by another guy

Yeah... I think the both being partners should earn, u can't come to my house and fold ur hands, expecting me to provide all ur needs. God forbid i marry a lazy woman... If u can't bring anything to the table, don't expect to enjoy everything in it.

Rozross:
Solely plan on the 100k first before thinking of what the other person brings to the table. Any man with such “bring to the table” mindset does not go far in life, let’s be realistic for once.

Thank God men are waking-up.

Discarding ladies that have nothing “to bring to the table”.

Men don’t ever burden yourself with someone that have absolutely nothing to offer but wants to leech off your life.

Even at the risk of being termed sexist or stereotypical, most 9ja babes are leeches!
What are you, the wife bringing to the table?
Are men created for the hard life and the female folks, the soft life?

God1000:
you are obviously a spendthrift, frugality isn't in your dictionary.

Country is expensive naw.

Anything less than that can't make hair. Ask your girlfriends, no kidding.

Some ladies cream is 10k, soap is 5k make stuff is 5k

15k weekly for meat for a single person and a family?(₦2, 400 per day on meat).

ROTFLMAO.. Guy,you dey kill me with laugh!! Maybe you can consider using Engine Block...

Don’t be sad by this post, we are all here to learn

You are not here to learn anything, you are just asking dumb questions

How much does your father earn to raise you and how much does your mother contribute? We will get your answer from there.

Rozross:
A thread was created by blessedmercy asking if it would be wise to settle down with a man that earns 100k and all she got was insults and jabs from guys, like seriously?

Should a guy who earns 100k think of marriage or how to double his hustle ? Why are most guys unrealistic, can 100k fend and cater for yourself alone.

Please I’ll want those who think it’s ok to come break it down for us on how the 100k will be managed monthly, I maybe learning a whole lot from this. Thanks

100k is big ok,only a working class woman will know the value of money,I know a wife who supports the husband with anything that has to do with kitchen,food,gas,while the husband pay children school fees,house rent,order billings isn't that a support from the wife,tell me how that kind of husband wount respect the wife

Rozross:
Stop deceiving people here with false narratives about how 100k can be properly managed as if you don’t live in Nigeria. I hate living in self denial. Hit the nail for im head

First off, ask yourself how many people work at places that pays more than 100k. Highly probable guess is 20%. Not everybody will leave the fancy life. With this mentality, most women will end up doing a disservice to humanity. Set your standards for yourself and let others follow love and other things that push people to marry. In time if you do fathom the mystery of how the world works, you would understand that your understanding is devoid of knowledge.

Say no more brah!!!

so wheelbarrow Busher's no dey marry?

Which breakdown are u asking, you just have to be financial prudent. One tenth of what you earn, is URS to keep. After keeping one tenth which is N10,000. You bring out money for food stuff for the month cos it we save you more, let say 30k (mind you, this would increase as children start coming). Then the remaining 60k, if you are on a rentage apt, you save let's say 15k (monthly) and it remains 45k. So the rest would be for bills, transportation and other misc which won't be enough to run for a month hence why the wife has to support..

Every man need some assistance and support one way or the other. It is now left for the woman to sit and find which area are assistance can fit in conveniently for her. All of these are just theory, but with the high cost of living, I wonder if all I jutted down here would be obtainable.

Rozross:
Still waiting on you all, especially those that bashed blessedmercy tirelessly. Please I seriously need ways to go about the 100k issue, so as to know how to adjust

Ebubu9:
no mind the idiot rozross

I know your type. if you get married to a millionaire businessman and his business suddenly suffers a setback to 100k a month income, you will run away. If you want anybody to come here and tell you how to manage 100k in a month, it means you are not yet mature, probably still an adolescent that hasnt seen anything in life. Please confirm if you are so that I will give u a breakdown of how u can manage 100k. Nonsense!

Niger gals with entitlement mentality

IamHonourable1:
Men in relationship with girls who earn less than 100k,how do you cope?

khalids:

This one wey you add...na bigger man life...

Life is about how you want to live it....

I had my NYSC in a village and in that village there was no light, no transport system, no running tap water...

but yet I had a fantastic time...I ate well (regular pounded yam, with veg, fish and kanda), with palmwine.....I used a bicycle for moving around the village...I hardly spent half of my NYSC allowance.....and it was fun, simple and joyous.

How much you actually need is not based on you needs per say...it has a lot to do with your wants....

If your wants in life are small, your financial needs will be small....if your wants are big, your financial needs will be big.....Its a relativity issue

You forget everyone did NYSC and mostly in the village, if you are lucky and in the south villages you get almost everything for free, yam vegetables, even fish.

In Lagos, clean water is now very costly because of diesel, if you fill your 2,000 litres, that is about 15,000 now, yeah and that water is not enough for two months.

When I did NYSC it was 18,500 or so, though I get food stuff from home, that money can't do much, those that try to manage to save end up in the hospital, some had to call home to pay hospital bills, being a man means being able to survive, managing at the expense of your health will lead to greater damage.

what this means is that as a man earning 100k monthly, I should never go for a lady earning anything less than 80k monthly, for the equation to balance.i drop 100k, she drop 80k making it 180k altogether,after all marriage is 1+1=1 and not 1+ 0 =1.

Ogbeni, how much will she bring to the table? Answer question and stop sentimental conjectures without statistical proof

somehow:
15k weekly for meat for a single person and a family?(₦2, 400 per day on meat).

That analysis is for a month, not week

Olalan:
Internet and fake living, you need to ask yourself how many people are gainfully employed in Nigeria? Majority of working class people earn below 100k monthly and yet marriages are conducted weekly.

If you like be waiting for a above 100k earner before starting a relationship......your eye go soon clear

No, leave them naw, shebi all of them will marry dangote son or wizkid

Yes Sir
If you're earning 100k and using 60k for food,it is not bad
If you're earning that and you have responsibilities to shoulder asides yours,that is when it is somehow.
You have the choice not to date a spending spending Lady.

Hello Op,
Life is not a straight jacket.
I was earning more than my fiancee wen we started dating to the extent that i paid for a house for her to stay

She got a bank job and started earning more.

Then i got a bank job and my salary was 4 times her own.

I think if you see a guy that is hardworking and has tenacity, him earning 100k now does not mean that will be his peak. It is also important a woman earn some money to support in the house. It helps in joint decision making. I am sure you have heard some men boasting that their wife does not have a naira in all he has achieved.

A woman shld be a help mate not stand aloof not helping at all.

In this economy, both hands shld be on deck in carrying the family up.

My 2 cents after 22 yrs of marriage

Stevesuccess:
A close ally that is married told me something. I want to share. He actually encourage me to follow suit.

Emma is the third born of late Ayo. Ayo was a retired O'2 in Nigeria Army. Immediately he retired, he was paid is retirement benefits.

He bought a house in kaduna. Emma, his siblings moved into a two. Late Ayo returned to his village, flexing with other women and relatively abandon Emma, and others.

Emma was able to skell through private secondary school with the help of his Mummy petty trade

After secondary school he enrolled into a computer school and earned himself a Diploma in Data processing and computer programming.

With his speed in typing, he secured a job in a computer business center and later became a boss of his own without a shop. Typing and writing project for out going students in a highly recognised university in kaduna.

He wrote jamb and secured admission in a college of education. Sponsoring himself all through without any help from uncles and aunts.

Concluded his B.ed in Chemistry as best in that year. Finished NYSC and relocated to Abuja.

Today, he is a teacher in Gwarinpa in Abuja, earning 65k month.

Before relocating, he is into an open relationship. With the caliber of family his woman is from, they turn him down when he approached her family has a suitor. But with the insistent of his now wife. They got married.

THE BELOW ANSWERED YOUR BREAKDOWN
The guy bring his woman into a single room of 90k. Being a graduate that she is, he was able to secure a job of 40k with a bonus according to sales.

They reside in Madala, saving 40-60k monthly. Note also that the cost of learving in this area is minimal.

May Almighty God bless and help them as long as they remain faithful.

Mjshexy:
Look Ross there are couples out there with children that are making do with less than 100k in a Month and they are feeding well, until it hits you hard you may never understand the efficacy of prudence. If my man earns 80k and i earn half of that, what stops us from living happily and even saving out of it

See as you fine come get sense. That one asking dumb questions go carry face like nyash, wholly dependent on her parents with no clear path to achieving anything in life. Make person die untop responsibility with no help because him come this world with penis.

hahahahahahahah... My brother use koboco. Wipe sense to some people head... This people that are talking... Their parents are not even earning up to 70k but see them through school... Although it was not easy but they did it anyway... They will say things are hard now but still their parents are still surviving with the same amount.
