Reminds me of one guy wey dey count meat for pot give him wife...

The day I lost all respect for him was when I burst into his kitchen and 'caught' him dipping his fingers inside the soup pot to count the meat left.

Na that day I know say no be only psychiatric hospital mad men dey. Some are roaming freely.

It's not uncommon to see this particular guy quarrelling with his wife over pieces of meat and such trivialities.

So annoying to me and I felt disgusted.

Food is a basic necessity of life. Even if person one dey stingy not with food...as long as there isn't wastage and done in moderation.

Honestly to me na poverty mindset dey cause such over kaku!

I nor know wetin to tell you, but e be like this person is a close relation to you. The way you take described everything nor be ordinary.

Good verse you quoted, however check the actual issue that was being addressed in that chapter.

I understand why it looked irritating, but sometimes things aren’t as straightforward as they appear. For some people, it’s not always poverty mindset—it could be habit, upbringing, or even a way of trying to manage the home. Maybe he grew up in an environment where food had to be carefully rationed or where quarrels easily started if someone felt cheated.

Also, not everyone sees meat or food as “just food.” In many homes, meat represents fairness and respect. If one person takes more than the other, it can spark unnecessary fights, so some people go the extra mile to monitor it. It may look extreme, but from his perspective, he could be trying to avoid conflict.

Rather than seeing it as madness, it might be more of insecurity or poor communication between him and his wife. A healthier approach would be for them to openly agree on how food is shared, so no one feels shortchanged.

Himachi pls notice I didn't say poverty...

But poverty mindset. One might be rich or well to now.

But the background one is coming from might still be affecting his mentality and way of thinking.

They is no communication that should make a man be counting the number of meat in a pot of soup if not either poverty or the lack of money or poverty mindset ie growing up from a background of lack!

Lol 😂

You are indirectly a student of geh geh without even knowing it 😂😂

You know there is a way something trends and you just have to take a snippet ..what exactly is the noise about.….

So, I have an idea of what it is all about.

I am giving my own opinion

Point noted, but it’s not always about poverty or background. Sometimes a man counting meat in the pot is more about personality, upbringing, or even control issues than financial lack. There are people who grew up comfortable yet still have stingy, calculative habits. Likewise, some who came from real scarcity are very generous once they have enough.

So, while a “poverty mindset” can explain some behaviors, it’s not the only reason. In many cases, it’s simply a character flaw, not a financial condition.

My colleague that we're in the same line of business is not poor: four houses and over 20 commercial buses but he is like the person that guy narrated in the story. I said and did everything that I could say or do to make provisions of basic needs of his family a priority but he just find it difficult to shoulder. All he ever wanted to do with his every kobo is physical investments

One can grow up comfortably and still have poverty mindset...

That's why it's a mindset!

And that’s exactly the problem with some men — they mistake physical investments for true responsibility. Owning four houses and 20 buses doesn’t mean much if your wife and children are left to struggle with basic needs. A man’s first “investment” should be in his home, because a hungry family and neglected children will never celebrate you for how many assets you have outside.

It’s like building a mansion but refusing to fix the leaking roof in your own bedroom. Yes, assets are good, but what’s the use when your children can’t boast of proper care or your wife feels abandoned? True wealth isn’t only counted in properties; it’s measured in how well you provide comfort, security, and dignity for those who depend on you daily.

At the end of the day, buses and houses can be sold or lost, but the love and respect of your family is priceless — and once that is gone, no amount of “investments” can buy it back.

brain54:

Exactly. Growing up in comfort doesn’t automatically erase a poverty mindset. You can be raised in a wealthy home, attend good schools, and have all the basics provided, yet still carry limiting beliefs about money and abundance.

For example, someone might always feel the need to hoard resources, fear taking calculated risks, or believe opportunities are scarce—even when they’re not. That kind of thinking often comes from upbringing, the values instilled, or even the people you surround yourself with.

So it’s not always about whether you grew up lacking or not. It’s about the mindset you develop towards money, responsibility, and progress. Comfort at home without the right financial orientation can still leave a person with a scarcity mentality.

Omo, no be lie you talk oh, but make we reason am small. Geh geh no be only about chasing babe, sometimes na just coded way of talking about enjoyment or flexing. Even some married men dey use am when dem dey gist, no mean say dem dey run after woman.

And again, make we no too judge sharp-sharp. Some married men still dey fall into that lifestyle, not because dem be mad, but because dem never balance their priorities or dem never adjust from single life to married life. Na maturity and discipline matter pass.

So instead of calling dem sick upstairs, I go say na poor decision-making and lack of focus be the real problem. Marriage no automatically change person, e just expose who you really be.

Thank you.
If a man with no or little physical investments but who takes care of his family dies, his wife and kids will mourn him despite leaving little or nothing behind for them. But if a man who doesn't take care of his family dies and leaving huge physical investments behind for them, do you agree that they will inherit all the properties but still won't mourn him or miss him?

Yes, the wife and kids may inherit huge properties from a man who neglected them in life, but material wealth can’t replace the bond, care, and presence of a husband and father. They may be financially secured but emotionally detached — they won’t miss him deeply because he wasn’t truly there for them.

On the other hand, a man who shows love, care, and responsibility creates memories and bonds that outlive material things. Even if he leaves little behind, his family will feel the pain of his absence more strongly because he left them with emotional wealth — love, presence, and guidance.

In short:

Neglect + wealth = inheritance without real affection.

Love + little wealth = mourning with gratitude and deep respect.


So yes, I agree with your point — the measure of a man isn’t only what he leaves for his family, but also what he leaves in his family.

But if a man who doesn't take care of his family dies and leaving huge physical investments behind for them, do you agree that they will inherit all the properties but still won't mourn him or miss him?

There’s a man who owned four houses, a fleet of buses, and plenty of land scattered here and there. But in his own home, he was like a stranger. He never cared if his wife had money for food or if his children’s school fees were paid on time. He would come home late, eat, and sleep — no affection, no bond.

Now imagine the day he dies. Yes, his wife and children will inherit everything — the houses, the buses, the bank accounts. But deep inside, they won’t feel that void that comes from losing a loving father or husband, because he was never really there for them. They may even say things like, “At least now, we can finally enjoy his wealth in peace.”

Compare that with another man who didn’t have much — maybe just a small rented apartment and an old car. Yet, every day he made sure his children ate before he did. He checked their homework, laughed with them, prayed with them, and supported his wife like a true partner. He might not have left big investments behind, but when he dies, the house will be filled with real tears. His absence will be heavy because the love and presence he gave cannot be replaced with money.
