This is a counter thread to all those threads tha are bashing women who are seeking for a better life; therefore, labelling them a gold digger.

Caveat- I'm male before you "Nairaland guys" devour me. I only came as the saviour of female folks.

1) You don't get to worry about how bright tomorrow would be unlike getting married to a poor man who keeps whining.

2) Everybody from all works of life will respect you if your husband is rich, especially policemen, street-urchins etc who respect rich women.

3) All your wants and needs would be satisfied without a remnant of it- You don't get constant nagging from your husband.

4) Your Children will get to live a fufilled life and attend the best school in your location- Paying school would be least in you worries.

5) Most broke guys are aggresive and won't hestitate to beat a woman anytime she does something- you know that a man who is hungry man, is an angry man.

6) You won't be insulted by your family members & friends who is going to see you as liabilities or people that you might visit for aid in the time of need.

7) Your husband won't label you as a liability- He has to spend the money because he got it and ready to spend.

You don't need to worry more on where to spend your vacations, as it's already prepared by your husband.

9) You children gets to acquire best treatment and sleep in a comfortable nice house.

10) You get to give birth to cute and healthy kids- Sometimes, poverty is the main cause of given birth to deform kids.

Now, Ladies go for the best and never relent.

meaning?

Hmmm

How does a woman combine focusing her energy to be rich and taking care of the home the way NLers want it?

If she focuses her energy into riches while single, won't men say she is not a wife material?

@OP:

Very funny

delishpot:


And how are you sure all walking men will fly? We are talking already flying guys here o. Don't worry if no one walks with you, you will remain single till you fly then a pretty sister will fly with you.

@ First, thankGod you said you're a male, if not.... But be dat as it maybe, it all depand on if the man is "already made" i.e rich man, becos someday you will be kicked out, or things can turn around i.e. Due to political instablity, economic etc affecting his business/ source of income.

2) Everybody from all works of life will respect you if your husband is rich, especially policemen, street-urchins etc who respect rich women.

don't forget that having a rich husband does not guarantee respect, frm those people you made mentioned on, it all boils down on how the lady carries how self, i.e. The way you carry/respect yourself, is how people around you too will do, it does not have to do with riches.

3) All your wants and needs would be satisfied without a remnant of it- You don't get constant nagging from your husband.

It all depending on the suitation @ hand, I have seen very rich men's wife nagging, even more than the average/low income men's wife, especially wen their needs are not meet.

4) Your Children will get to live a fufilled life and attend the best school in your location- Paying school would be least in you worries.

yes again, it is not a guarantee, anything can happen along the line, e.g. Unfavourable business transactions, bad deals etc.

5) Most broke guys are aggresive and won't hestitate to beat a woman anytime she does something- you know that a man who is hungry man, is an angry man.

This has no prove, it has to do with the state of the mind of the man, either rich or poor, very rich men with money too can be so aggressive in nature, either as a result of stress or bad business deals, think about it.

6) You won't be insulted by your family members & friends who is going to see you as liabilities or people that you might visit for aid in the time of need.

[color=#00080] This can be said to be correct. But the only issue is that, wat if things turn around? [/color]

7) Your husband won't label you as a liability- He has to spend the money because he got it and ready to spend.

Na lie, husband mama and family nkor? Except if you have something meaniful doing, that brings little money to the house too, that is wen your husband would not label you as a liability, and dont forget, husband's relations will be coming for a visit too.

You don't need to worry more on where to spend your vacations, as it's already prepared by your husband.

No all the time, like this last summer, I know of a very rich man, that could not afford to send his wife and family on vacation to the states, his reasons are that due to the fact that elections is @ hand, the politicians are odding the cash, and is affecting his businesses and also exchange rate wahala too. So you see, the rich also cry.

9) You children gets to acquire best treatment and sleep in a comfortable nice house.

yes, this is true.

10) You get to give birth to cute and healthy
kids- Sometimes, poverty is the main cause of given birth to deform kids.

No @ all, provety has nothing to do with deform kid, again, I now of a very rich senator, that has one of his kids "deformed" so poverty nor dey look face for deformity, he took the kid to all part of the world for medical checkup for where, it all boils down to God and not money.
Now, Ladies go for the best and never relent.

Francistony in Romance , interesting .


But to be honest I don't see a reason why I should gold dig, am the type that hates depending on anybody .

harde2lah:

It seems you have issues with reading and comprehension. I only spoke for myself and not for all men. FYI, I do not need your kinds (gold diggers) to walk with me. I don't roll with gold diggers either. I roll with ambitious, intelligent, gregarious and humble ladies. If I'm dating you and I sense that you're in for the money, there is no problem. All I need do is to play along. Believe me, I will make you give something in return. Tit-for-Tat baby.
And please do NOT say who you don't know. You don't know me! I don't know your gender but I will assume you're lady. I dare you to tell me the highest amount you have received from your bf or your mugu. A girl that doesn't ask for anything deserves everything. Get your lazy fingers off your keyboard and go work for yourself.

Last time I checked, paupers were raping their own kids too. Last time I checked even broke/ average men cheat on their wives too, last time I checked poor guys beat their wives too. So wealth or porverty doesnt stop abuse.
Why cry on an Okada when you can cry in hummer?
Broke guys nor go gree with op sha.
Op, pkease change the topic to why a woman should marry a rich man. Remove the gold digging not every woman that marrys a wealthy man is a gold digger.

You shld add this to it "Not all gold diggers will end up well,some will be lucky while some will be unlucky".

'Duped' wife must pay her billionaire bigamist ex £100k: Foot-washing ceremony was not valid
Mercy Ogbedo claims she was 'duped' into marrying magnate Moses Taiga
Mother of two of his children later discovered he already had wife from 1974
Billionaire had marriage struck-out in Nigeria and High Court won't overrule
Mrs Ogbedo must pay his £100,000 costs after legal battle for cash support
Mr Taiga has ended both marriages and has now married for a third time

woman who claims she was duped into a wedding with a billionaire who was already married has been ordered to pay him £100,000, a court heard yesterday.

Mercy Ogbedo believed she married shipping magnate Moses Taiga in an elaborate ceremony in Nigeria where her feet were washed by village elders and a dowry was paid for her as a ‘bride price’.

The couple had twins together, but Mrs Ogbedo then spent a decade pursuing the tycoon for financial support through the British courts – only to be told she would not get a penny because their wedding ceremony was invalid.

Instead, the 45-year-old of Finchley, North London, was ordered to pay 80 per cent of Mr Taiga’s legal costs for a series of complex court hearings, leaving her with an estimated £100,000 bill for lawyers’ fees.

Mrs Ogbedo went to the Court of Appeal yesterday in a bid to get the order overturned.

The court heard she had ‘limited means’ while her ‘husband’ owned a string of London properties.

The pair ‘married’ in 2002 and had twins, but Mrs Ogbedo discovered soon afterwards that Mr Taiga had already married a woman in Benin, West Africa.

The court heard that having more than one wife is allowed under Nigerian law, but Mrs Ogbedo applied to the British courts in 2003 to have her marriage dissolved because of her husband’s behaviour, and to force Mr Taiga to pay maintenance for their children.

cap28:


the difference between marrying a rich man who ra.pes his kids and a poor man who does the same is that the poor man is likely to end up in prison for committing the same offence. A rich man will buy the judge and you and your children will never get justice, there is no guarantee that you will live a life of luxury after your marriage to the rich man ends especially if you marry him in Nigeria, because as you know the divorce laws in Nigeria do not protect women.

Many women in Nigeria who marry rich men in Nigeria are not guaranteed a life of luxury once the man gets tired of them.

IN the story I posted the woman is now living in rented accommodation with her two children and has not received a penny in child support or alimony from the man. The man's family is so rich and powerful that the court didnt even order him to financially support the woman after committing such a terrible crime against his own children, imagine what would happen if this were to happen in lawless Nigeria.

i see no reason why a lady should be a gold digger. Only the hopeless and lazy ones do that.

fellis:
What's he point of going after a broke guy or struggling guy when he will still end up cheating and disrespecting you when he finally gets rich?

They are all the same jor, broke or rich.
The broke ones are only well behaved because they know its hard to get quality women and they are trying to get you to stay with them.
Women can go after the rich ones because when the man eventually starts chasing other women they can a least contend themselves with the fact that their children are comfortable and well taken care of.

Well, yes, its hard to find justice against rich people wether you are married to them or not. So I guess we should all avoid rich people cos if they commit any crime against us, we wont get justice?
The point is, its not a bad thing to marry rich men/ women. Its just to shine your eyes when marrying same as when one is marrying a poor/ average person.
Many women/ men have married rich people and experience same level of problems poor/ average people experience in their marriages if not less. They are doing okay and raising their kids just fine.
Biko let them ladies not be afraid to marry rich men. Ladies feel free to marry any rich man that God brings to yo. As long as you two are happy together. Let the world call you what they like while you fly in that private jet.

ThankGod you're speaking your mind, it is always advantageious starting frm stratch with a guy on like marrying an already made "rich" man frm Statistic, the man you laboured/ started frm stratch with will probably respect you more that the already mad man, and his level of thinking is quite different too.

In terms of cheating, its very very few that does dat, speaking frm statistical point of view "i.e the guy u start frm stratch with"

Mondisweets:
how many of your age mates that you know that can marry a blind woman?
You can freely choose a woman according to her physical appearance, but a woman cannot choose a man according to his financial status? Please don't come here and preach to me about hypocrisy please!

maybe men need to learn loving women for the sake of love and not what they look like, maybe then will ladies stop behaving like vanity is the beginning and end of life.


When you stop making physical appearance a priority in a partner only then will women stop believing that they deserve the highest bidder because of what they beauty/ physical appearance.

so if he wasn't married when he became rich, he doesn't deserve a wife?

Marry a physically challenged person, solely because you love her and only then can you preach this freely without sounding like a hypocrite yourself
