Sorry to say just returned the bad product yo the sources lobatan, lets her mother and father gets back their product and says bye bye for life, because you cant built a worthy life with her. Telling her mother is just like reporting devil to satan, if you are scam with the word love my brother nah you sabi o, because you will work and work like tomorrow no dey but you will still live in penury, imagine you invest your 700K to buy a plot of land in one bush, or you use it in buy stock, or use to buy goats and gives it out for rearing by now you will have something you earned as return, a bad wife is bad investment, knowing these known peace.

They should question the woman thoroughly, she has a side bigger somewhere that’s helping her enjoy the money. Speaking from experience.

I can never give my money to someone to start a business. I can only give the person money to support his or her business. I wonder why people dey marry person wey no get work keep for house. You no get business you are doing, or employed in any parastatal and you want me to marry you because of marriage? Many men are phoolish for real. You come dey give person wey no sabi value of money to start business😂

Days of starting a business with such amount are over.. 700k starts nothing.
What kind of business are you going to start with such paltry sum?
Instead of making people look dubious by giving them incosequential sums, do give anything at all

Oga 700k would buy her shoes, perfumes, handbags and co. Which she can sell online to prospective customers. How do you think all these online vendors started.

All she has to do is to register with a reliable plug who can even give her products on credit and she can pay after selling.

The wife is very unproductive. And for you to type this you're nothing but a lazy Nigerian yoot.
Thanks for being calm. Some people can't think. They always need millions to start. That's why they complain all their lives. They will never do or achieve anything because all they want is what they cannot afford. It's like those biblical servants. The one that was given 1 talent. What did he do? He returned it. It was too small I think.
Re: Wife Squandered The ₦700k Her Husband Gave Her To Start A Business by Juoflife1(f): 7:20am On Mar 02
700k is nothing. Save good money and open the business yourself. Run it together with her and leave it for her. Then supervise.

Or register her to learn handwork. After learning, she has to work for someone first before opening hers.
Many people don't know how to run businesses without training

In the first place, the husband is reckless
You shouldn't have just handed over the money to her like a gift under the guise of "start a business"
You should have sat her down, agreed with her on a business she has interest in and then go along with her to set up the shop
Leaving her to do it all by herself will increase the cost and overwhelm her which is what has led to the situation
Unfortunately this will strain the marriage as it will affect her self-esteem just as it will affect your peace of mind too
Go easy with her. Both of you should talk openly about what happened that led to this disaster and how to avoid future occurrence
But pls man, don't fight or beat her because of this. Except she's been showing attitude of laziness and carelessness before
Re: Wife Squandered The ₦700k Her Husband Gave Her To Start A Business by Druss(m): 8:39am On Mar 02
Similar to the verse in the Bible, if she had taken that money and even put in MMF or ethical fund by now ...

What's the difference between a skill and business?
Stephen0mozzy:
Now, on the topic....

Unless a woman has obviously shown real ability in managing a business, or has gotten training in it and she shows the zeal, don't waste money trying to "FORCE" abi invest in a new business for her.

You need to have a conversation with her (wife) and then support her efforts with something - but she has to be financially invested too - if a person doesn't have anything to lose, they don't value what's in their hands.

These are the kind of conversations y'all don't have during dating - maybe she would have benefitted more from getting a skill than business.

What is the meaning of this 50/50. Will she be a full-time housewife?
marlow1962:
If I were the man, my 50/50 family responsibilities and bills still stands. I will keep providing my part and let her provide hers, but the day she didn't provide or play her Part, then that's her business, my money won't come out. Then she has to be paying her all bills one way or the other and my money won't be involved.
It so simple

Stop it nah. You guess are trying to turn regular babe into hustle babe. E no dey work o. A hustle babe will never ask for money she will simply inflate the price of things and take her " profit "

Re: Wife Squandered The ₦700k Her Husband Gave Her To Start A Business by Love800(m): 11:47am On Mar 02
It doesn't mean.
You can see and analyse if she has a spark for doing something.

Also, talk her, model her, train her mind about it. Make her brain feel strong. She should learn under someone and monitor dis process. Afterwards she can start her own stuff.

50/50= equal couples contribution to the maintaining and running of the household.

From the post, it looks like she's a full time housewifes. If not, I do no see the need to rent a shop for her (not saying only full time housewifes do rent shops, any body can).

If you establish a business for your wife and subsequently cease paying utility bills, assuming she should cover them from the venture, it indicates that you do not have the business's best interests at heart. A virtuous woman would naturally contribute if she is capable.

Similar thing happened to me and I have not fully recovered.

Mine was over a million naira

My wife would run back to her family house after she's squandered the business capital. She lacks business acumen.

She's presently in IBADAN with the children, I was really mad at her last time she repeated same.

I'm planning to reconcile with her because of the children BUT she must be ready to get START UP CAPITAL for herself. This didn't go down well with her, she wants me to secure a loan from a cooperative society for her again.


Nothing dey the head
You are on your Way to HBP.
if you are not careful!

You have not Even Recovered from the Last one.
You better Desist!
