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.

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
You're absolutely right!

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.
Lol. The ultra wealthy don't think this way. The rich marrying the poor only plays out in Nollywood movies.

From the examples given, I could see that none among the elites gave his daughter's hand in marriage to some1 at the bottom of the ladder such as Almajiri boy. During my service years, I have even witnessed a high-class wedding where all almajiris were flugged to leave the premises of the occasion, yet the northern elites would come out to defend the existence of the almajiri system with the last drop of blood in them. This is to tell u that they want this system to keep existing so that it would be a strong weapon for them to use at any time. They can not give out their daughters to them in marriage, yet they would keep defending the existence of almajiri system in the north. God will judge u all.

That's good but another thing is , the other party can't be trusted in having this mindset they solely marry most times for poverty eradication scheme meaning they are just there to raise their status and when this is achieved the probability of the marriage succeeding tends towards zero than one. It's better to have a party that doesn't have financial issues so you understand that the problem of finances isn't the reason they are dating so you don't have to repeat the cycle of marriages because of people taking and leaving. The world is so cold.

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.
And you think a guy from an Ultra wealthy home like the Dangotes will go marry an average poor girl? How many times have you seen such scenarios play out in real life except in Nollywood movies... Lol

Everything now is money
It has always been money and power from the onset.

What was the main reason behind slave trade? Even the wars of the antiquities, what was the reason ?

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
What is your definition of RICH ?

We are talking about Old Money generational wealth here.

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.
God bless you for this comment. He thinks real life is those Nollywood movies script. Lol

True and we don't know Seyi tinubu's in-laws in Anambra. Seyi could have married one of the ojoras or from other prominent families to strengthen the wealths.
And you think Seyi Wife is from a poor home ? Lol

See atleast you must be doing well to connect with these Ultra wealthy individuals.

like the one posted here are meant for the political class and elites. Not for you and i

The rich guys girls from poor home get married to that i know and that i have seen are those ones earning 7 digits in Nigeria, some based abroad but come to Nigeria and marry them then take them over. My neighbour, a lady whose family cannot afford 3 square meal got married to a Nigerian guy who's Canadian citizen. He came all the way from Canada to Nigeria. Got married to her and moved together with her to Canada. Men will forever marry women from poor home. It is how it is.

Yes she is
Even Regina Daniel
Seyi Tinubu wife too is from an average home. Even the so called political class and elites, not all marry within their cacus.

My cousin just finished her service. She's dating a guy earning 1.8m monthly in the financial sector and has other businesses he's running. A young guy in his 30s. I heard he's planning to relocate to US after their marriage. This guy may not be rich but you can't say he's poor coming from Nigeria standard of living. These are the category of guys I'm telling you that girls from poor home still mingle with and get married to them. Even at that not all girls had the opportunity as these calibre of guys are not much. Abi how many guys dey earn 500k for naija? It can't go round obviously but the few guys doing fine financially still get married to girls from poor home.

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..
You're naive. Do you know what is called hypergamy? from a Redpilled perspective.

Not talking of the text book definition.

Marrying a partner from background of
poverty is the greatest harm you can do to
your generations, that is why rich people
don't try it .... 😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣 😂

Southerners from Christian background are focused on marrying right for fear of divorce, as they do not have the luxury of polygamy.

Abeg get lost with your peace of mind🤦‍♂️
They are talking about maintaining affluence and wealth, you’re talking nonsense.
Can you have peace of mind if you’re poor?
You’re the kid here and you will not notice because a man in love cannot be advised.

You wonder why an average northerner is retarded? Those fvckers marry their cousins and siblings. They're products of inbreeding. That's why you can't see them excel anywhere quota system is not at play.
