Very well said. But u see, hardship in Nigeria and Africa is a well known fact. But complicating it with Marriage and/or child bearing by one's self is called abysmal stupidity. Na u suffer pass? Must u suffer cos of ignorance, false and base values and subjectivity to societal expectations and norms?
no mind am.I don't know what's with Nigerians and misplacement of priorities. Is marriage an investment or achievement?if he doesn't have poverty of the mind is he not supposed to be asking questions like what kind of business or career goals can I invest 20k on that will yield benefits or multiply my income.

Marriage is a liability that you cannot venture into if you're not standing well financially the winds of life will blow you and your marriage away .for men it takes away their finances,time freedom space privacy quiet time to think and meditate

Exactly they all want to be with made man most irritatingly when they are they still look for another made man, no woman is ever satisfied with one man and if you investigate these slay Queens are the ones whose parents are on pension their pocket money from home is 3k after food stuffs but they want to live the life


And further more they don't like to work for money
u dey mind them
The thing is nobody wants to below standard
But that isn't a justification to flex muscle online

HOW TO GET MARRIED ON A 20K SALARY!

If age is no longer on your side, you have found the woman you want to marry but your salary is the barrier between you and your marital promised land, you earn 20k or a little more per month, your sexual urge is getting uncontrollable, you are over 30 and your fiancee wouldn't mind settling down with you, here is the practical way to survive on a 20k salary!

1. Pay your tithe 10%

2. Save 10%

3. Get a room apartment where you will not be paying more than 2k per month.

4. With neighbours, your NEPA bill should not be more than #500:00.

5. Feeding for both you and wife not more than 10k. Always buy your foodstuff in bulk every month, you will save lots of money.

6. Keep 10% for emergencies, that is 2k.

7. The remaining #1,500 will be shared between you and your wife as pocket money. You 1k, wife, #500.

Now listen: you can only do this on the conditions given below:

1. Your wife will get a job to assist you financially so that both of you will put money together to start a business, look for a higher paying job or run your vision that will yield profits, enlarge you and move to a higher level of comfort and wealth. Discuss this thoroughly in courtship and ensures she agrees. That is what courtship is about: to discuss your future and see if you can walk together (Amos 3:3).

2. No baby for the first 2 years while you both work harder and get something better or extra doing to cater for the baby. Discuss this thoroughly. Visit a family planning clinic and get an advise on which family planning method will work for you. Withdrawal sometimes fail and calculating the ovulation period is not completely reliable but if she is very diligent, can consistently monitor her ovulation, you may take the risk but combining with CD is better (I'm talking to mature adults here).

3. There will be pressure from your family especially your mother for her to get pregnant. Stand up for her, shield her, be a man and let your mum know that for personal reasons, it's your decision for her to delay pregnancy. Marriage is for mature men and women, not for boys and girls. You should be responsible and have the final say in your marriage. Your decisions are between you and your wife, whatever anyone else says is secondary! Protect her from your family, stand up for her!

4. Pray diligently and consistently for God to enlarge you.

5. Map out practical plans for you to achieve your dreams.

6. Have the faith that can move mountains! The Bishop Oyedepo and Fela Durotoye's type of faith: These men had almost nothing when they started but their wives were working and assisted them till they broke through.

You can make it before you get married. You don't have to get married on a salary of 20k. The Lord can surprise you with a better job, profitable business or great contracts before you marry, if not yet then don't wait till you are in your 50s before you settle down.

"Two are better than one..." is what the Holy Book says. With your wife's full support and strong faith in you, you will break through the ceiling of limitation and emerge into your glorious destiny. FEEL FREE TO SHARE. God bless you, cheers!

No way! No sane, right thinking man earning below 50k monthly should be considering marriage in this present Nigeria we are in! Coupled with all the slay queens that abound everywhere, I won't even consider dating any girl! Would rather die single! Good thing I have got hands. cheesy wink grin

I'm telling you.I remember a young up coming dude that used to sell kerosene in My street.the guy was able to make a name and small change from his business, the next thing was that his neighbors began to pressurize him that he has made enough money and he is old enough to marry.this boy was just 29 without university education but just started springing up.the boy said he doesn't have money for wedding, can you believe this same people who didn't have money to give him to support his business gave him money to support his owanmbe wedding. After the wedding and he started paying heavy bills to hold himself and his marriage together, all the people pressurizing him and contributed money for his wedding faced their front and pretended as if he doesn't exists
