Yea, I am very aware of that report. I made reference to it in a thread months back. Majority of us are managing our lives in this country, but we somehow make out money to spend on frivolity.

peacengine:
For me, at least N5 million after paying rent for the year. I gats to make my madam and kids comfortable

pedrilo:
I already hav a bungalow which I let out n rciv 350k annually, i work wit a private firm n rciv 120k monthly after tax n pension, i am able to save 100k from dis amount n use 20k for myself monthly, my plan is to either save money n travel out or save up to 5m, use 1m to get a moderate car e.g. Camry, use anoda 1m for wedding n settle down with a lady day can also bring sometin to d table no matter how small. I'm 31 yrs old.
Pls evaluate my plans.

wristbangle:


You have a good plan but how come are able to save 100k while 20k alone in a month. Are u in Lagos? Is your work place close to your residence?

When you save the money, you can kindly invest in a profitable with high ROI.

Agreed, marry a lady that will bring something to the table, no matter how small it is. Don't settle for broke/hungry lady bro. You will be her ATM machine for life.

pedrilo:
thanks boss, ur assessment is noted. And yes I live in Lagos n also live close to my office in d mainland. I only spend 100 naira as tfare daily. Thanks once again

wristbangle:


You are welcome boss. That's great. I have my reasons for quoting you. Almost in same shoe

Why shake your head?

Maybe I am not intelligent enough but isn't feeding limited to food?

What about other responsibilities that comes with marriage?

Clothing?

School fees?

Bills?

Transportation?

*********
500k is not even enough for a bachelor not to talk of a family man.

Well you are a lady, you can't understand half of it.

don't u think dats y people find it difficult to settle down these days? how long will it take to ve such money in ur akant

BrainArk:

Create a separate thread for this, I am sure you will get some good advice.

swiz123:


Your question looks childish; the replies you've gotten so far, childish too.

You don't literally need to have 500k in your bank account before thinking of getting married.

You just need to have a steady source of income that will be enough to cater for a family.

A man might be running a business with less than 500k, but he makes steady profits from the business. He might decide to folk out 150k for traditional marriage(depending on the state he intends to marry from), then later he can do church wedding.

Having the mentality that I need to save up to half a million before getting married has kept many men above 35 single.

If you can clothe, feed, provide health care etc for 3 persons comfortably, then getting married shouldn't be a problem.

But while at it, avoid marrying leeches

akaahs:

I don't have 500k in my account but I'm planning for marriage next year, I don't know how but I still believe is possible.

akaahs:

U re more than ready by my marriage meter. Who re u waiting for

500k for wedding or for marriage? If its wedding well u can save 1million sef if u wish. But for marriage, is not by what u have in ur account o, its by d amount coming into ur pocket regularly. If u have 600k and no good income is coming in, when d money finish wetin u go do? If God wan come catch you, make orobo woman weh no get work get belle for you... Na double of wetin u dey chop, wear and use she go dey require plus pregnancy demand.
