have you started building a house if no i will advise you not to jump into marriage for now, instead diversify yr source of income.. I'm almost 25yrs of age and i earn 30k monthly with income from other sources am building a house already I don't have a girlfriend.. I hustle hard nd make the necessary sacrifice just to give ma kids the desire life i never had while growing up. 1 Like |

[quote author=osayuwamwen post=55195810][/quote] Is building a house an investment? How much can you realise in that your house in a whole year? Can you make up to just 500k in a year ? Rice sellers can make more than that in six months with money not up to what u are sinking in that house. U ain't definitely building that house in leki or VI , it is certainly in a remote area where a room won't be up to 2,000 naira. Is that an investment? Is that what you will use to give your children a better life ? Or u just want to join landlord association to pamper your ego. Think , man. |

KennyID17:there is bro buh a maximum of 4 kids not up 2 18yrs...NHIS its for civil servants... |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by richie9093(m): 6:19pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
KennyID17: Do you have any proof to show that it's abysmal? My family has NHIS and I am a living testimony that it does work if you know your right. In 2013 when my dad wanted to undergo a surgery, it was the NHIS that covered it. In 2011 when my younger brother had respiratory problems, it was NHIS that covered. So don't talk about what you don't know, kid. GTFO my mentions abeg. |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by KennyID17(m): 6:22pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
favexx: If there is, as proved by .any ppl that have quoted me on this thread, then i is ineffective, and should b scrapped. A lot of ppl don't know about it, I know of d nhis, but like u said only for civil servants. The other one u mentioned, is it govt regulated or some health insurance scheme that is for a select few? |

iwadobo:read ma lines carefully, i have other business and I earn income from this source aside ma monthly salary. You think House is not an investment? If can achieve that b4 u get married you can leave a well comfortable life with 60k monthly and your wife 40k monthly salary even with 4 kids |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by osayuwamwen(m): 6:35pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
If you can achieve some of the stuff u need to have as a dad even b4 u become a dad you are doing yr self a favor in the long run when you eventually become a dad |

jay7:Despite attracting numerous likes, this is a very bad advise based on mere hope and not concrete plans fir future sustainance. This is a poverty mentality |

iwadobo: Thanks there is more to life than we youths of today thinks of it. |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by Jyde81: 7:25pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
blackjack21:Did u just say marriage is not necessary about how much you earn? Sorry is the case of the person who follows this advise!!! No wonder poverty has continued to multiply in the land. |

Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by jay7(m): 7:27pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
Jyde81: Well everyone is entitled to his or her opinion but I have few questions to ask you. (1) Where you raise in Victoria Island? (2) Are you a graduate? if yes what type of car are you using? what is your monthly allowance back then? and if No where are you schooling presently? I would have love to ask mpre questions but let's start from here. |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by Ugosample(m): 7:38pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
Jyde81: You know, people's taste of what a comfortable life is different though, so I don't blame the guy you quoted for his views. The thing I will tell you @OP is to think very hard and weigh your circumstances before taking such a weighty decision, because as I speak, a friend dived into marriage and all with this mindset, and with a combined income slightly higher than yours, but they are finding it very rough, but they are fighters sha, so dem day rough am. So my guy, reason this thing very well... And P.S. If you decide to marry, id advice to delay child bearing by 2 years or three, so you can be disciplined and save and plan So that you don't experience story that touch. Children are expensive o Hospital bills + Baby food + other contingency plans My brother reason am o |

TINALETC3:but why are most women always like dis, they are naturally financialy selfish in relationship. D man comes home puts everything on d table while d wife pretends and hides her own, i had an an experience where a once peaceful couple down my street suddenly became quarelsome and fighting almost every night, dis situation lasted for months. d public eventually got to know d cause of d fights when d man broke down in tears lamenting that d woman he lived with for 18years and had 3 kids with bought a land and built a house without confidding in him, while he goes to work to work his ass out every day and deny himself of some little comfort just to provide for d family, and there s this other woman in my neighbourhood who will not cook because theres no match box in d house and cant risk her dime to buy one,she would rather wait for her husband to get back frm work to get money to buy a match stick. Even when she has a thrivin bussiness and her husband spent 100s of thousands to start it for her, then i realised that most relationships are in a maga mode |

If the transportation is not eating into both of you salary, why not? It will give both of you a good foundation to manage life and your finances too. Mind you, waiting for salary increase or better job offer could tale years. It's better to face it now and start adjusting than waiting for when things will be better. My opinion though. |
Re: Can You Start A Family With This Salary In Nigeria? by Jyde81: 8:47pm On Apr 02, 2017 |
jay7:(1) I am not living in V/I and neither am i living in lagos, Abuja or P/H. (2) Yes i am a graduate of Physics. I graduated in 2007. I have been working for 7 years in a bank. I am 36. I use a honda accord 2007 model and i am slmost through with my personal house. I am experienced enough to know that u do not go into a venture(marriage in this cade) based on mere hope alone that things would be better. It is dangerous. Life is full of unforseen circumstances and u must plan for them. Saying some folks earn about N50k and send their wards to private schools is not a right argument. If they fo not have a legitimate business by the side which fetches them goid income then they are probably stealing.....My take |
