"I told him to be rotating it!" What audacity....and she has hands.
The kind entitlement ladies have over their husband 's money is out of this world. Can you imagine the audacity, "I told him to be rotating it"
As the Rotator the man com be now.

They make their money, they keep it.
The man makes his money they must squander it. grin

She did not even sit down to do the maths of how much come remain for the man to spend on himself. Someone who wakes up daily and rush to work. Facing all the stress and insults from his boss.

This world no balance.

Except he has other means of income... He might just be stealing to make up for the extras. Cos clearly, there's nothing left for him

What if the man loses his job?

N150k turns to N0k. grin grin

She is an ingrate. Although I don't see why a married man with a pregnant wife earning meagre N280k/month will still be supporting his parents and siblings. Going by her maths, it doesn't seem like the man is saving anything for maternity and baby. He needs all the money he can save right now.

Who was taking care of her parents before she married her husband?
He is not responsible for his inlaws!
He may assist at his own disposal or freewill but certainly not an obligation!

Lazy, and so entitled.

Moreover, Does she not have Male siblings (Junior or Senior), just like her Husband, who can do the same thing to her/thier Parents?
Must all her family Witches conspire against the growth and prosperity of this long-suffering man?


The responsibility of taking care of Parents at Old age, rests with the Children those Parents raised and trained, not on their Inlaws.

So you guys are still getting married to Nigerian women these days…shey Una no they see or learn from the news circulating on every social platforms.
I know one foolishh guy that’s still paying marriage debt after divorce. Avoid naija women! Avoid them like plague..infact marriage is overrated, just give person belle and you’ll be fine
Nna, if you like go marry Ghanian, even Mexican lady.... a call for being responsible as a man is a most duty to all men.


The best advice for the couple is that they should begin to reason on setting up a business to expand their income window. But the wife must be prudent enough to manage such business resources as her new job since they're just starting their family. But if both families will continue to vulture on the same #280,000 , tendencies of matrimonial family crises is imminent in that marriage.

Hmmm ... how much was the bride price? He is supporting his mother....she should channel the same energy to her brothers. Are they taking care of their mother? I can bet my toe nail that she'll have a problem with any of her brothers who is giving money to their in laws. She'll have a million and one reasons why they shouldn't...but those reasons don't apply to her husband Hypocrites everywhere.

Spending only 50k on himself.
How is he different from tribalistic Nigerians who spend so little on ourselves while politicians steal our taxes and the revenue received on our behalf, instead of employing well paid civil servants to make education free for all children, and water supply available to all households?

Can you spot the difference and/or similarities huh

It is by far better than Enugu.

500 gallons of water go for N20k. Multiply by 4 in a month, that's N80k. By extrapolation, that's N960k in a year on water alone. Why? Because the governor believes that clean and accessible water is the least of his worries. Yet they prance around like Enugu is Abuja even though the red muddy soil will have residents looking like they went tomb-raiding at night.

But then, considering where it was before Peter Mba, one can understand the accolades being that he moved the town from 16th Century to 17th Century but not anywhere near 20th Century. 21st Century is a stretch. EEDC? The worst of all.

The Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services and Water Resources in Lagos State, Mahmood Adegbite, has said that people drilling borehole in the Lekki axis of the state is probably drinking ‘’shit water.”

While speaking at a stakeholders meeting in the state recently, Adegbite noted that contaminated boreholes in Lekki pose health risk and added that treatment of waste water would eradicate any form of disease that may arise from it.

He said, “On waste water treatment, I will say that everyone digging borehole within the Lekki axis is probably drinking what I will call ‘shit water.’

Man a big fool...Why marry a house wife. Get her a job or start a business. The money he is sending to his parents shouldnt be monthly. Atleast once in a while. You need to build for the future.
Why not monthly, why once a while his age parents are his responsibility, so after suffering to take care of his children they won't be there for him at his old age, only that if he has siblings he has siblings it should be coordinated.

If the wife has brothers... The man has no obligation to send any money to her family.

But if the wife has no grown up brother, then maybe the man should try and squeeze out something for them.
why can't that lady work and earn her money, why do some women enjoy being full housewife and still in lack

Even that 50k still goes into the family like light bills, health, house rent etc. That 150k will probably be for food, the man will still be the one to pay some bills from the 50k.

Wife gets N150,000
His parents N 80,000

How can he "squeeze out something" from N50,000 undecided undecided

What sort of entitlement mentality is this? why can't you work and give half of your salary to your parents? Honestly this is a red flag and if my wife acts like this then the marriage won't last.

Marriage is between two people coming together as one, so by extension the couple from the day they married themselves has two families and should be treated as such. For the man to give his parents and refuse to give his wife's parents is totally wrong. Yes, he is wrong. What he ought to have done is to divide the 80k into two, one to his parents and the other one to his wife's parents.
I ask him this question, what do you call the parents of your wife?. If it's Dad and mom, then you should equally play the role of a son to them.

Why can't you find your own job,earn your money so that you can be giving your parents money angry

She's not even a good home maker. If not,she can still be pinching out small money from the 150k that the man usually give to her and from there be giving her parents angry
So how much the baba use dey transport go work? Or take buy himself anything? inside the remaining 50k? Abegi..

The story get k-leg or the baba no tell dem his actual earnings which is smart in my own opinion.

It's evil and a bad omen for ya woman to know that much. Especially when na werey like this iyawo. Pesin go just die troway...

Just give dem a lower figure to avoid stress. Old bachelors like us don't even bother with that. We can't have such problems.

Na so o. Hypocrites everywhere like our politicians especially.

Imagine how obi says what he does not do, yet smart people worship him as lord and saviour. shocked

bennybuhari:
“’I cannot take anything back about Obi. I said Obi said he wants to move Nigeria back from consumption to production and I said that is not true. He cannot do it because his own business survives on consumption. Is that a lie? He has been an importer and I said he deals with cash and carry economics; container economics, imports”.

“All the goods that can be produced in Nigeria, Obi imports them in his supermarkets. That is consumption economics. That kind of person cannot tell you that he is moving you from consumption to production. He will then be committing self-economic suicide and Obi will not do that to himself”.

“So, Obi is deceiving everybody and I can’t take that back because that is true.
