dats only when you are employed in good companies.. And since its so hard to come by good jobs here.. Its difficult for families to afford hospital bills..


Most times I tell myself I won't even want to marry a Nigerian.. I just picture myself relocating to a more civilised country where the government has regard for her citizens

..


If you don't know something must you talk? Cheez, go and make enquiries we have govt and privately owned HMOs and even as an individual you can register for any of them, there was a time when one telecommunication company was registering people just for purchasing their Sims and recharging. So you shouldn't respond to questions when you don't have enough information about things

QueenSuccubus:






Don't tell me Nigeria don't have health insurance ?

..

How can you even think a country like nigeria wouldn't have health insurance schemes?

Dannys85:

We have one useless National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) that serves the interest of the rich and the fraudsters called politicians.

Go and do your research na, instead of this falsehood, aren't you embarrassed?

Jolar101:

Do Nigeria know what health insurance mean? Nigeria is a bush and the government there in are super MUGUs.

Seriously? Are people really this clueless about happenings in Nigeria, so you don't know that we have govt and privately owned HMOs

KennyID17:


Health insurance initiated and maintained by the federal government?

If yes, how come only a handful of ppl have access to it, doesn't that show u it's a failed attempt?

They don't read and most of them would rather complain than make the most of what they have. With only 20K one can get a personal health plan per year but most people don't know

DaddyNick:
As a young graduate who got a job with a starting salary of N60,000 monthly and you have a fiancee who is also a graduate and has a job of N40,000 monthly, do you guys think one can start a good home with this a raise a decent comfortable family in Nigeria?

Yes boss, your location and cost of living come into play..

Here in Kebbi State, it's possible!

QueenSuccubus:



I mean a government-mandated health insurance policy...?

Don't tell you what? How many African Americans have health insurance? May be some have gotten insurance since the introduction of Obamacare. Even you, yourself might not even have health insurance unless you are a citizen or a legal resident living in Canada. This is Nigeria, and we or our government have not figured out the solutions to electricity talkless of national healthcare plan. Please do me a favor, shut the Bleep up!

jjman2322:

Personally anything is possible, just depends on how much level of poverty you want to go through for your family.

The world is way over populated.. Dont bring in a child to suffer and not have the best food/education.. YOU MUST NOT HAVE CHILDREN.

Nigeria needs to chill out with need to re-procreate.. theres no reason for a driver on N20k/month to have children..

If i made only N100,000.month, i'd find a nice babe, have a small ceremony, and live/enjoy life with her.. I won't bring any kids into the world to come and suffer, as well as increase my suffering..

for NIGERIAN MEN/WOMEN: ITS OK TO NOT HAVE CHILDREN. Many priests/etc dont even have children.. Also lots of billionaires in western world barely have kids.. Live a good life, and die happy.. Don't bring children into this world and start begging for food, school fees, etc.

Thanks.

The useless government, fraudulent churches and priests (mosques and imams) should tell Nigerians this gospel truth!!!

Well done sir.

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

Thanks for the prompt response but like I said everyone is entitled to his or her opinion but I will like to chip in this, been rich and comfortable is not until you have Millions and Billions in your bank account, riches is a state of mind and contentment let us take Aliko Dangote and Seun Osewa of Nairaland or Makinde Azeez of Naijaloaded or even yourself as an example here, riches is in classes and stages once you are able to manage the little you have at your disposal and you are doing a legitimate business alongside then one should be ok. (one may be earning 500,000 a month and still not achieve anything tangible in life if he is not planning well and another person might be earning 70,000 a month and accomplish many things with that, Sir one thing I want you to know is that with the little you see them earning they can still save and start something from it, another mistake we make is waiting until we have millions before we start a business, I will advice we the youths that we should look at our environment and start something I could remember when I was in school I bought a 3 in 1 printer just to make extra income for 33,000 and i can tell you that as a student then taking my academic work as the primary objective i still make tangible amount of money from that small gadget I bought for 33,000 naira, I am saying all this to encourage us that one can start a business with little amount and still make better profit, but at times as a graduate we claim to be too big to do some jobs whereas if we divide our salary by 30 days in a month we will be surprise that some people are not earning more than 1500, 2000, 2200, 3000 e.t.c daily and a man riding keke maruwa or a taxi driver is making more than that on daily basis.

No you can't! Unless you live in a very rural area where standard of living is cheap and you have no plans of having children anytime soon

There is health insurance here, if you have 40K to spare, you can register for an individual health plan

Bros u are indeed learned and shall succeed in life.I have said it times without number don't rush into marriage if u don't have legitimate biz by the side and enough savings to see u through difficult times.depending on salaries is very risky and op try to acquire the basic needs such as ur own house and maybe a car before u Tie the knot.Also observe the whites and take a cue from them.a kid or two should do for u couple to have a comfortable life

Please helping people with links and details probably with contacts, that'd be great.

As a spinster, I had everything I wanted although form an average family. I got married to a guy who earned 10k every month, then I got a job of 13k and with my handiwork of fashion designer we were able to cope. Although I had a dad I could run to but I always like being independent..... fast forward to 9 months time, I gave birth to my kids (twins) and immediately I and my husband got a far better job..... Now I can say, start with the little you have and in no time your financial status will step up

Jyde81:

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.

some people are poor, all they have is money.

QueenSuccubus:

Yes, Nigeria now have NHIS; you can register as an extra-dependant with 15k. I think there might be other packages one can subscribe to. Just visit any of the NHIS offices for more details.

Some pple dont earn up to dat amount monthly, yet they are saying "hell no".
hypocrisy of the highest order
