Bro times have changed nobody wants liability these days
Sure but they still manage to hook some of the so called "rich guys" every weekend. I'm just saying that isn't the discussion here though. A wealthy family will not even accept the girl that is legitimately wealthy in her own right if her family name doesn't ring any bells. Except the son is strong headed and can convince them otherwise.

Pointless. I want to be a multi billionaire by own doing and I want my children to marry whoever they want. What's the point of having all that money and power when you cannot fall in love with someone you like? Once these people die, nobody will remember them or their power.
And those wey chose romance will be remembered in their poverty abi?

Lazy and Gold diggers mentality, did the parents of these children from wealthy background, no. Marry who you want work hard and pray God blesses you. These arrangee marriages most times end up I suffering and smiling. Jim Ovia, Elumelu, Okonji Iweala and others didn't marry people from wealthy background to be successful.
Those names U mentioned ( the men ) are the sacrifices and foundation of wealth in their lineage. Their kids will most likely get married to someone in their league or not too far away. They're still building

These are calculations to strengthen their political stronghold on the people. They are week unpaired. The poor needs to stop killing themselves over these people.

I don't believe in a rich guy looking for a rich girl to marry and vice versa. What is wrong in a rich guy marrying a poor girl he loves and establishing her to be equally rich as long as she's a sensible and reasonable girl..

U are definitely still a kid. Your best approach in marriage even if u are a multi zillionaire or from an extremely wealthy and influential family, should be marrying a girl who is your true and real friend, a girl u are very compatible with and will give u happiness and peace of mind for the rest of ur life even if she is just from an average or poor family.

That's how it should be.


Only poor people marry for romantic love.

Love is a fallacy.


Marry for a purpose. Marry to fulfill your life purpose.halve of this marriage will crash before two years

Marry to grow your finance, career, business empire, political career and wealth.


The greatest mistake any man will ever make is marrying because of romantic love. It is what kept so many men and families poor from generation to generation.


Marrying for love will keep you poor and limited. If you want to go far in life, train your heart not to fall in love or marry for the sake of love. Love should be among the last reasons you should marry anybody. Romantic love is a tool designed to keep people controlled. Romantic love will blind your eyes from reality and will make you overlook vital qualities that determines the future.



If you want to be poor as a man, marry for:

Love
Sex
Beauty

Yet when Kemi Badenoch refuses to be identified with the North, the internet starts attacking her. Northern Nigeria are the architect of their backwardness.
Since when did the north become the entire country of Nigeria?

Where did she say she doesn’t want to be “identified with the north”?

Moreover, how is southern Nigeria not as backward as northern Nigeria huh

(The Economist)
A 45-year-old resident and father of three, Mr.Fatai Lamide told PUNCH HealthWise that no building in the community has toilet facilities.

The Oyo State-born mechanic said, “We don’t have toilet in this area, including our compound. This canal that you see serves as toilet to all of us living in this area. We defecate inside nylon and throw it inside the canal.

“For people that don’t want to use nylon, they have a special bucket that they use after which they pour it inside the canal too.

The lack of state-owned pipe-borne water in the homes of Lagos residents has continued to be a source of concern, a non-profit group, Corporate Accountability and Public Advocacy Africa (CAPPA) has said.

At a press event to mark this year’s World Water Day, the group said its monitoring team’s visit to state-owned waterworks showed that most of them are not operational.

The group said the waterworks it visited include the ones at Maryland, Mushin, Ikorodu, Obalende, Agbowa, Onikan, Ikoyi, and Amuwo Odofin.

Only the one in Ikoyi is producing water, according to CAPPA.

That's is why I laugh at girls looking for rich guys to marry and despising the broke guys the rich guys don't want you take that to the bank.
who told you rich guys aren't marrying girls from poor home? I have seen many o. The truth is that all girls cannot marry rich guys because rich guys are few in numbers compare to the struggling ones but some of them still get married to rich guys

Your comment just showed your present state, you're poor. When you become a billionaire or understand what it takes to build wealth that will last generations,you will edit your comment. But my advice to you is try and purge yourself of poverty mentality. Look for a way to be around the rich, business moguls preferably even if it involves working for them as house keeper. Like, just tell yourself I'm hereto to learn not necessary because of the job. I did it and discovered it's my poverty mentality that made me poor not necessarily the govt.
