Simple Advice:
Leave the girl, focus on yourself. Pray for a Lady that would be working, love you and be contented with what you have.
Your Salary is ok for a start, except if you are staying in Abuja or Lagos.
Any other state, 80k is enough for a start.. As you are focusing on your self. Save money to venture into farming. Half of your salary is 400k in 10 months. In 10months you can learn any type of farming you want to do. Process all these FG funds for Agro. Get a plot of land.. and you are good to go.
The girl and her family would regret.


One beer for you cos u took it out of my mouth. 80k is not too small expect u live in highbrow areas in Nigeria or u are a heavy spender. Distance yourself from that family so that I can improve your income.

To be true (depending on the state he resides in) he can afford to in many Nigerian states.

However this is NOT without qualifications. E.g.
No children for a while
., A Rather minimalist lifestyle and commitment to save and improve earnings.

Now the MAJOR issue is the Nigerian society. One element of our cultural thinking that has become a trap is the clamour for large weddings.

It's hard to argue that a Wedding is usually the average Nigerian [Youth's] Single largest Project. And this project ends in a day or 2!

It's a Big war to do any different. Society (including family) would fight back.

God help us.

Well, I've come across minimalist wedding ceremonies esp in this Covid-19 pandemic. However, the bold is the problem. Most Nigerians get married so that they can have children immediately, some of these brides are pregnant prior to the wedding ceremony. Due to the belief of "marry today, born tomorrow", it's better marriage is postponed for the foreseeable future for men. For women, the case is different.

You're a mumu man.

You're earning 80k while some are earning below what you've. Uncle lemme tell you, if you earn 1m and you let your in-laws control your lifestyle you're in people soup.

Be a man that control your family, emotions, feelings, anger, and happy moments. You can't just kill yourself because of bunch of pussy.

The kind of in-laws you have, are the kind of family that'll demand more than what you earned on your wedding day. Mr Man don't be a mum boy, wise up man.

With the 80k you are earning, I won't advise you to leave the job, look at other business that you could invest and you'll earn big time. In case you want to quit I have offer for you 24k monthly by then you will remember that bubu is still our presido.

Man don't fall in love, rise and stand in love.

I understand where you are coming from. Her family might have told her to consider other men with more money. She loves you and doesn't want to leave you, reason why she wants you both to hustle more.

Keep trying hard, I pray God to bless you and make your life better. If she's a good woman, hold on to her and pray for her not to give into family pressure. It's not easy for a girl to go against family.

Both of you together pray regularly for the relationship and that God's will be done and that the family will turn around to support you. Never underestimate the power of prayer especially when it's both of you together

As you pray, keep hustling and may God bless your hustle

I earn an average of 150-200k monthly in bizness although i still feel i am not strong financially to get married. I employed someone and started him with 20k monthly and he told me he is traveling next month to see his supposed to be father in law. I was suprised. With 20k? I learnt something. Money or whatever you earn wont stop you from getting married otherwise that boy wont think of going to see his in law to be. Its continuing the process trusting God and doing your best.if she is avoiding marriage plans at 80k, you will go through fire when you loose your job. Some dissapointment are blessings in disguise

While 80k is not really high, it is not abominable for marriage either...i find It strange that people(most)are shouting"go look for money first,focus on money",I will bet my balls that they(some)don't have such regular amount coming in monthly...because others are talking, they also want to feel among.

Op,it's is alright to try n increase or better your income, but don't think the money is not enough for starters(just you n wife)most of those niggars talking up n down there will kill to be in your position...see them rushing for N-power n u will understand.

Let me tell you the gospel truth.

You are a less man, therefore, you have to "man up".

What is actually affecting you is low self esteem. 80k salary is not a small money. Monthly for that matter.

How much are civil servants receiving?


Or is it the name of the work you do that is getting you down casted? "Security administrator?" SECURITY!

With 80k monthly, I can rule my World, even marry and control that Obama only daughter.

I dey tell you , what many people shouting it's a small money lacks is Financial intelligence and Self control.

With the marriage plans, it seems you were heading into the life of the average Nigerian family man living daily from hand to mouth and praying fervently for the next day's meal. Thank God for your girlfriend and in-laws who God has used to redeem you (whether their intentions are genuine or not).

My advice to you is that you should invest most of your salary into marketable skills, keep your certificates aside for now. Learn a skill that you know can set you up within 6months to 1yr and then start your own business based on that skill. It could be in IT, Real estate, engineering, construction, general grade, etc, just something with good potentials that God can bless for you.

I am 32. I have been working for 7 years here. Also working while in school. Just finished last year and got a pay rise to 80k as security administrator.

Baba, my issue isn't the marriage. My issue is the money. I am desperately asking on how best improve my income. Concrete suggestions on what I need to lay my hands on now to get started. I am tire of submitting applications
truth is 80k is not so bad depending on your location. Even some of these bank and some companies workers wey dey starch their clothes well well how much you think say them dey receive. Forget all those wey dey things here many of them don't earn that much. As long as you know you can and will definitely increase your income, you have no problem. I have a theory that water always find it level in other words if your girl can make do with your present income level, then go for someone who is ready to grow with you. I don't think the income is the issues maybe there is a suitor somewhere.

the world has changed and with this mentality of yours you'll have to stay long before you get a simp for marriage.
The house chores you are good at could actually be done by the housemaid while you go out and also hustle and bring money home.
Men don wise up and no man needs a liability anymore.

Oga focus on the point of the argument joor. No be everything you go dey take personal and dey throway insult upon.

I asked that if we're to go back to the olden way of doing things, will men of nowadays be alright with it?
Sheybi you all want submissive, obedient wives. If you had that, would you stop her from working?

Assisted, yes. Nobody is asking you to take care of the entire family. Just contribute your quota, even if it's only for yourself.

Didn't I just say I will assist in your farm if you had one?


Define "contribute" cause all I'm seeing here is you wanting the wife to work and earn salary too. That's not the direction I'm going though.

It is not about your salary. 80k monthly is very small, yet, very big. It is the understanding of your wife and her family that is most important. Don't ever risk marrying a woman who is not gainfully employed and don't risk marrying from a family that are leeches. It's good that you want to improve but the reason should be for yourself and not for your fellow adult with hands and legs.
