Pray to get married first. As a woman, what are you bringing to the table?

You can not come to the table just to be a liability to a man, who does that?

Keep your liability in your father's house.

Most of these Bannies acting karashika for men are always from very wretched Backgrounds.

But Jennyclay is a riff-raff from a poor family na . You no sabi am for this nairaland?

It is what it is

Even this year now we are battling how to make payments for school fees, house rent around the corner, the expenses keeps building up

Most times when I get home from work, after taking my bath, i just pretend that am sleeping and take a quiet place to reflect on what and what to do to improve the condition to favour

Life goes on

Nowadays, I don't work myself up, elders over here say

"Na the one WEY you chop for your Belle, na im be your own"

So most times when am at work and I see anything that i long to put in my stomach or for my satisfaction, I buy it, even if it means telling my wife a lie

Try to rest mostly on Sundays and when you get any chance off, lock yourself in the room and sleep

I'll never forget what A Man in his late 60s told me almost 10 years ago

He said if you as a family Man fall down and die today, the children you left behind will still achieve their goals and life purposes and yes they'll survive even without you.

Is so bad that has a married man you can't even buy yourself new wears.

Throughout last year I couldn't get myself a new set of jeans trouser even tho I needed it badly despite having the money.
All the money I made last year 90% when into paying bills and household expenses.
It so crazy how you has a man you will have over 200k in your acc and you be scared to even buy yourself something of 10k cos of fear of the unknown.
In all of this my wife and kids still has many clothes they haven't worn I paid for you.

Last weekend my wife bought herself over 10 new shirt and when I saw it I reminded her how I couldn't even buy myself new jean....she told me nah me no wan buy nah.
It really hurt me cos whatever money I make the family expenses come first before my own personal needs but it isn't same for women.

I just feel marriage is design for men to suffer honestly.
People just taking from you and no one really care about what you need.

Jennyclay:
Why would he have 4 kids when he knows he’s broke and poor

Gone are those when people born as many as possible.

Take care of your wife and have just 1 or 2 kids that you can cater for without stress. Simple!!

The thread reads as if you are blaming his wife and four children for his death... It doesn't make sense to advise a married man with four children to prioritise his own interests above all others, including the kids no one begged him to raise.

It is better to warn men against having children or even marrying.

At the end of the day, most of us will die for our personal interests. He wanted a certain lifestyle and standard of living and he went for it. It has nothing to do with his children. Many kids born in slums turn out fine. Na you want standard, and it's totally fine to die for what you believe in.

Bobodee09:
He was a well to do man . He had those kids when things were good.

We could ever imagine things will go this bad 10yrs ago.

You came blame anyone who got married 2010 who has 3-4kids. Things was good then

ibechris:
Na men dey like to suffer.

When u are in your 20's start early and awake ur investment mindset.

If u can do this early enough,at your 40's ur passive income should be enough to take care of your family expenses while u continue to grind with life.

I learnt this technique at an early age...not from my father but from someone whom I lived with years back.

Example is. If u have 30million,invest it for one year,use the proceed to settle all family expenses for one year,after that u can rest and be happy. Not all the time,waiting for salaries that isn't enough.

May his soul rest in peace and may this serve as a lesson for all our able young men especially our teenagers.

For those who may not find this feasible,this theory is working for me and u can always adjust it to suit ur figures especially if u think the figure is too high. remember na advice ooooooh.

Bobodee09:
This advise goes especially to married men and men in general.

Don't put yourself under unnecessary pressure or take up loans to maintain a certain lifestyle.

I just lost an area senior bros this morning, the news didn't come as shock cos he has been in the hospital for a while and his BP refused to come down.

He is man in his late 40's married with 4 kids. This man was under alot of pressure to meet end means, he took up too many loans just to maintain his living standards to please his family.

The last time I visited him in general I also checked my BP and it was very high, I was also under pressure myself to meet target.
When I got home I promised myself I wont die young to please anyone.
I will do my best and leave the rest cos at the end no one really care all they want to do is take from you as a man.

Married men enjoy yourself, take care of yourself, buy what you want. You can't be working everyday and be suffering to please your wife and kids.

The men who die young are the ones who always labour and don't take care of themselves, you see men who only provide what they have and take care of themselves they live longer.

We are in this mess together trust me....those people you think are doing better have alot of loans on their neck. So don't let anyone push you by comparing you to them.

If what you provide isnt enough or appreciated tell your wife to also provide or take her leave.

From 2010 to 2025, one's financial status can deteriorate significantly. Just one of Tinubu's poorly thought-out policy, like the subsidy removal announcement has harmed many families' ability to save for a rainy day, and it appears that the rain is even getting harder by the day.

The man did nothing wrong by hustling till he died. His family is not responsible for his death. He died for what he believed in: providing the best for his children. There was nothing else he could have done in that situation other than become a deadbeat dad or join a criminal group like the APC. Neither of the two options is appropriate for a sane, responsible man.

Indeed marriage just favours women

Thank u my brother.If u nor do fraud I wonder where u want take see #30m.This life na prayer go save person o.Nor be as we plan most times things take dey happen.

tensazangetsu20:
The man is a fool for having 4 kids and men can control child birth. What happened to getting a vasectomy after having the first kid. Nigeria is only going to get harder. 2 kids is even a lot for an average Nigerian.

There has never been a time the economy of Nigeria has been good enough for the average person to adequately provide for 4 kids.

Fidecoo:
,

Over 200k you said??


Sir, I dey run millions, I swear I couldn't buy myself just a pair of Jean trouser👖 or even a sandal throughout last year.

pocohantas:
Abeg o.

His post clearly said the man took loans to meet a standard. Doesn't seem like his wife persuaded him. However, I do agree that men should take care of their health and themselves. I am an advocate of 2kids. I don't think a middle class home even in the 90s could afford 4 kids and it is worse now that middle class has been stylishly eradicated. Most importantly, a wife that supports or at least knows to manage the available resources.

Godwin4444:
y must u always show your stupid side on every thread, I know u have good sides y not endeavour to show that so people won't see u as a fool

U never bothered to care about what happened to his finances or probably he lost his job or lost his business u just come here to display madness

I wish there could b a technology where fools like u could b slapped through d phone, at least it will purge d internet of stupid people

Nigerian marriages has centered everything on the man, from the very first top important down to the least important, it's the man responsibility to do it. Sometimes it makes me wonder why do many women blow up like nuclear explosion, but the man is looking no different from a homeless person?

Enjoy yourself the little way you can, do your best the little way you can for your family and leave life to take care of the rest. Too many responsibilities and baggages is why many men just fall down and die. Nobody is coming to save the man, the man has limited options in life, so why not enjoy the little you have when you're alive.
