I'm conflicted on whether to use oraimo cord or 2 by 4

Rozross:
I’m interested on the breakdown, simply break it down for me on how you spent such money monthly, please

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

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.

My brother earns 300k and the wife earn 500k . He advised me not to marry a jobless woman no matter what

Rozross:

Ever heard of cutting ones clothes according to ones size. I owned a multi million naira business for years, travelled for vacation and used flights for all local travel then things went south I was broke and lost my business. After a year staying at home I got a job that paid me 16k monthly in 2015 just so I could feed, surprisingly I was never hungry for a day because I planned according to my income. I developed myself in another field afterwards and currently 300k+. I still develop myself the more because of my dreams... A man earning 100k or less today could earn millions tomorrow. It's all about managing your finances and commitment, if the man is lucky enough to get married to a woman with brain that understands that no condition is permanent then the sky Is the limit, not a woman that wouldn't allow him save a considerably amount that will be used to develop skills or a woman that wants to live Instagram life...

Modified: A family than earns 130k monthly can comfortably save 50k depends on how they commute to work because transportation will be the biggest challenge. 10k will be for weekly foodstuffs and they ensure they cook at home that's will be 40k monthly, the remaining 40k is for entertainment, NEPA bill etc.. with 50k saved monthly they can decide to set up side hustle after a year or develop better skills.... Everything must not be like Instagram lifestyle

I get married in 2016 with 55k as salary.... I do drop 20k to stock up , no eating outside save 10k per month for house rent, 10k untoch, the remaining cash for day to day running, coming to dis time I get pay 180k I only add 15k to my food stockup making it 35 using 80k on our building project per month and the rest

CSTRR:
Infact, most people on nairaland don't earn up to 100k.

Are you guys playing here?

100k is a big boy in Nigeria.

sparko1:
That analysis is for a month, not week

Rozross:
Break it down for us sir, you may be helping a lot of persons with your analysis

Abitolola:
I've read through this topic, nobody wants to answer with the analysis.

Here....
Since the man is currently making 100k, the breakdown is food cloth and shelter, no luxurious items or living till it increases.

Monthly rent. 15k. One room. Face i ......you
Food 30k. Buy in bulk, no eating out
Cloth (oruka bend down or fairly used) 10k
Transportation 20k.
Contingencies 20k
Ajo 5k

If you are sending down with a man that earns 100k, don't expect him to live in lekki and be going shopping and all those extra curricular spendings. It is cutting your coat according to your size.

Hope this helps your analysis.

UyaiIncomparabl:
First of all, I didn't quote you.

To answer your question anyway. I want my man to be able to provide for me and be responsible for my needs - doesn't mean I am a leech or will be dependent on him. Simply put, I want a provider man in the whole sense of it.

Don't quote me again. I can't go back and forth with arguments.

Ebubu9:
you be serious amebo oo. Wetting concern you for how a family wants to spend their income ? This should be very relative. Does it mean whatever she tells you is how another family who earns same income will spend their own ?

It is dependent on the preferences, choices, decisions, priorities, destination, where they live, amongst others. If you’re told based on lagos standard of living, what if they’re living in ebonyi ? There house rent could be cheaper among foodstuff, if who answers you lives in Ebonyi, what if the couple practising it lives in Kano?

What if they don’t like red meat which is cow meat and it’s expensive so they opt for fish? But who answers you loves red meat so can’t exclude cow meat?

I swear you no get sense. I’m sure you will marry wrong ! Don’t go and plan your marriage with your suitor/spouse, be looking for another person’s standard of living to use and live your own.

Your marriage is bound to fail

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

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

It's not about how much you earn. Live your life according to your budget.

EnterpriseMan:
This post is annoying!! 100k is more than enough for a guy to take care of himself. Ig he earns 100k monthly, that should be 1.2m yearly. if he has been earning that for 5yrs, If he saves and lives low budget, he should own a house by the time he decides to add problem to his life (the problem being the lazy woman asking how much he earns instead you trying to earn 100k too and double the family budget). Your question shouldn't be what he earns but should be what he has achieved with what he earns. I believe someone who earns 100k, doesn't pay rent and has savings is ready. While someone who earns 100k and blows it on clubs and drinks and relies on the next pay isn't.

Oh and he should live in a budget friendly state. 100k in abuja or lagos is a recipe for disaster
