Biko let her know your salary so that she can know if the future is bright for her or not.

Is not as if you’re earning millions of naira monthly undecided. I’m absolutely sure you’re not even earning common 100k monthly. Biko don’t come and put someone’s daughter in abject poverty!!
This must be cruise I guess?

You haven't said anything my dear. As an adult, I reckon your legs are weak. I would advise you sit tight and stop seeing nonsense.
Adult isn't defined as old. Not that Kids would be able to make that distinction normally. Okay I exaggerate. Some kids know the difference.

I’ve been dating this girl since early last year when I was still serving and she’s really into me. She doesn’t bill me unless I purposely send her something. And we occasionally hangout a lot too.

By mid last year, I brought her home to meet my mum and some of my siblings. My mum likes her so much and she would spend time with me in our house.

I finished my service around September last year, and I started hunting for job. I was taking online classes etc..

So I got a job earlier this year, and the pay isn’t bad. Only my mum knows how much I’m earning and few friends. My girl doesn’t know.

Now, I’m likely to be getting a pay rise this month.

I’m also planning to get married to this girl next year, hopefully, she’s been a good girl even when I was jobless.

I don’t know if it’s okay to let her know my salary range. Although I’d not be telling her specifically the amount.

Is this a good idea?

There's nothing bad in telling her your actual income if there's need for that.
My gal knew what am earning,
I have been married for over 8 years

It has come to my notice, based on your previous comments, whether it is for or against your gender, you always stand for your gender! But you're objective in most of your comments especially when it turns your stomach! grin

My fiance then now my wife is always the first person to know my salary. I have change jobs thrice and she is the first to know my salary till today. It is called trust and she don't demand at all. For that reason, I gave her the ATM to use anytime she needs money.

Not all ladies are like her.

It is not necessary for me.
I don't know my man's earnings,
I have never bothered to ask. I will never ask.
I have never even asked a man that question. Lol!

The closest I got to knowing how much he has stacked was when he sent me one of his bank statements for a trip we had planned. I saw the numbers and understood why men hide their earnings. If I were someone into flashy life, i would probably ask for a GLE the next day, but that one is not my issue. What I need is for a man to be handson to recurring expenses and things that make my life easier. If you miss this with me, all your money talk becomes noise.



The most important thing to me (financially) is that a man PROVIDES, INVESTS AND SAVES.

Some men would tell you their earnings, both current and future, but hungry fit wan kill you. You go know say some money get audio, but no visuals. You go dey hear am, but e no go show for screen or your body.

He provides...I RESPECT and APPRECIATE that.
He tells me of planned investments and expenditure. He doesn't tell me of the money he sends to his side. That is none of my business too. Highest he would say his family needs this or that and if he needs a plug, I guide him.

Life with him is easy. I can't complicate it with bogus expectations or drama.

The more men talk,
The less they do.

Focus on actions. That is what would make a woman respect and remember you.


Nice comment unlike that Jennyclay spewed.

Men should take note of the last paragraph!

You just affirmed why it is imperative noto to disclose this info to women. Many of you can't handle it, such that at the slightest opportunity, you weaponise it for emotional blackmail.

Some info must be kept from you to protect you from yourself!

Never let a woman know how much you earn...NEVER!!!

and if you must tell, then you have to give tell her it's 50% less that what you actually earn.

This is wisdom, and if you're a prudent man you'll thank me a you aged.

Why are you obsessed in telling others your salary, to please them or what.Your salary is a joker that you must keep to your chest.

You are an adult Who should know how to spend and plan with his funds,

Nobody should know how much you are paid, even your parents including your siblings and your fiancee.

Statistics shows that women tends to squander money when they see it, it is wise and safer to keep it secret,but if she insist, then tell her a lower amount, probably half of your salary.

This is the reason our fathers kept their pay envelope in the office they never brought it home, this gave them rest of mind.

Not good at all. Trust me. Never let any woman know your worth, it won't make sense to you now. Until then.

It's not a bad idea if u let her know your income, u may not tell her 100 percent, may be 80 so she knows the range and that guides her in spending if she becomes your life partner, as for settling down, if you're above 30 and u feel u have the resources to start a home, please make the move and be sure to plan well with her, u both may achieve more together, who knows.
