Only problem you have is the tithe, that mentality will empoverish you further.

Don't mind him.

Instead of him to be investing that 13k which is the 10% of his income monthly, he wants to give it to a pastor who already has a private jet.

Many foolish people in Nigeria.

My brother with 130k monthly you are good to go

Remembered to draw your scale of preference properly

Also an apartment of 270k year is over hyped

Why not get an apartment or 150k yearly

Try and be saving towards getting a land and start something on it gradually

Do this today and bless God after 2 years and thank me after the 3rd year.

That's like 2 and half months salaries. That's living beyond your means sir. And you're considering getting married. Consider it very well

Unless u have decided to continue punishing self, How much is ur own rent and how much is your salary?

Paying above 25% of ur salary on rent is considered as living above means

That's the salary of most Nigerian civil servants except the money they steal.


A level 8 graduate working with federal government earn around 120 - 130k from what I hear, and we have millions of Nigerian civil servants with wife and kids parading themselves as rich, so you are very fine if you marry a lady that is working and earning too.

My salary is 177,000.
My rent (2bedroom flat all ensuit) is 505,000
I'm married with 2 kids, of which the first is schooling and school fees paid.

The only thing I did differently from many other salary earners out there was to diversify. Hence I make minimum of 200,000 in addition to my salary each month. All you need do is safe some money, think out of the box and invest wisely for additional income.

Note: I married 4 yrs ago with an income of 100k only, No other source of income. But with careful planning and God's favour, today things have Changed as we live very comfortably.

oga, we are all here to learn to better our lives

you can as well gives hint of biz that pays you even more than your salary a month

i bet u live in a 1 room apartment and share the toilet and bathroom with about 10 people. And yea U even Order those innocent children to sleep on the floor while u and your wife enjoy the bed all through that 5 years. Even Hell will reject nigerians
Calm down bro, depends on the environment. People working in International Breweries Illesha are better off than those working in same company in Ogun state. Place of residence matters alot. 100k job can be fine to some people in Agbara but it is peanut when you come to a major city.

I think this your analysis will send many people back to the village.. My own policy is my 1 year rent should not exceed my 2 month salary.. So if the wife is earning, their combine salary for 2 month should be the ceiling for their rent..

Do your calculations very well bro. Your policy is based on your own idea of how you spend your money. Using your 3 months salary to sort out your annual rent doesn't mean you're living above your means.

There is no hard and fast rule about life...
Do whatever suits you!

I personally won't marry on a 130k salary (except madam is earning something tangible too). Even if I did, I won't have kids until i am more buoyant.

Shouldering some responsibilities before you are capable only entombs you in a cycle of poverty-- from father, to kids, to grandkids-- poverty!
The same reason black college graduates in the US fair worse than the whites.
The black man finishes school with lots of 'responsibilities' (father, mother, siblings...) on his neck, and gets dragged down by expenses and Bills into poverty despite his college advantage.

If you ride a horse before it is mature, you will break its back.

I personally dont think 130K is good enough in a place like Lagos.

May I ask where do you live?
Are you planning on augmenting your income?

It all depends on individual and the quality of life / standard of living you desire. I earn similar amount but have vowed to myself not to get married until I have a business which would happen very soon God willing. We are all dwelling on the salary and if it's enough or not - have we considered what would happen if we lose our job or the company liquidate.

Do you care to share about the side hustle? Maybe we can learn one or two things

Bro. Immediately I joined the company I work with which is located in one of the NPA in the country (don't want to be very specific), as someone in need of wealth, I saw that many companies were inside the port, something stroke my thoughts and i said to myself, I can provide a service to one or two of this companies. Hence during my 1hour of lunch, I would visit one company to introduce myself and what I can do for them(note: I'm still a staff of another company).

By this, I took advantage of my work environment and went into service provision and supplies. I had to employ 2 persons since I was engaged full time. Weeks turned months and subsequently years, I saw my initial capital of 300,000 grow up to millions. I pay both staffs 120,000 monthly (one staff with BSC 80k/ month and the OND staff 40k).

Today my business is a multi-million naira supply chain business with intention to grow even further. With time, I'll resign and concentrate fully on it.

Look around you, there is something you can do for an extra income.

Note: the breakthrough job I had was to design their chemical store, since I studied chemical engineering I knew the properties of various chemicals and applied same in my design, it indeed provided me with a breakthrough into the company.

U can start and manage that if you are still below 25 and there is fast career progression to earn bigger.
Dont let anybody deceive u that life is not all about money...the people that set up the organisation u work did so to make profit.
Earning 130k per month in this economy is synonymous to poverty not to talk of marrying a wife and raising children....there is no dignity in poverty.


After money is money....
Don't look things only in your own perspective, people earn less and still survive and that is the truth or maybe you should come down to the street and starts doing survey. The young man needs advice, you should add 'my opinion ' in those words you wrote up there undecided

are you married and how many 33inches Brazilian hair has your husband bought for you.. So any Nigeria young man that wants to get married must earn millions monthly.. My advice if you are not yet married drop this materialistic idea of yours..

Well 130k will be fine, if and only if your expenses match or is below what you're earning. I used to earn 40k monthly back in 2014..and I had 40k problems cheesy

Now I earn a minimum of half a Mill monthly..and guess what I still have responsibilities that corresponds to my earning. I'm not frivolous, I drink once in a while and don't chase women..(happily married). But I know pips who earn a minimum of 1.5m monthly yet they complain like kilode. It boils down to equating your expenses to your earnings. My target is to make my monthly expenses not more than 15% of monthly earning.

Lastly I don't believe in tithing.

You guys are funny. I won't state my earnings here but trust me oga, 270k in a middle class settlement in Lagos will only get you a one room self-contain.

In my current location, that money is what I paid as agency/agreement and caution fee. No point stating the actual annual rent.

Based on my location which is Northern Nigeria... If I earn 130k monthly as a single guy, I'd budget 100 to 130k for house rent (150k at most), be prudent with my expenses while I save for other plans and towards a wedding. I should only move into a bigger apartment and pay more just before the wedding. But even with that, I would want to marry a woman who is financially intelligent and earns some money no matter how little.
