Dear LIB Men, would you spend N50k on your first date with a lady?

A ongoing debate on Nigerian Twitter. Is N50k too much to spend on a first date for salary earners? What if you earn well? See more tweets after the cut and tell us what you think....

  8. I won't even ask a man to spend that kind of money on me.
    50 what?
    Every woman likes a luxury life,but u know what we did rather safe that money for a better thing,a plate of rice and a cup of juice is Okay for me.
    Even as a hijabite I have gone on dates b4 and I know what it takes.
    I won't advice even my brother to do such,cx the lady will start asking for braz of 150k soon, I do my hair for just 200naira n I alws love it .




    my answer is a No but if he can affords it he shud go ahead n nt complain to any1 later.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hilarious tweet, but seriously it depends on the way the man wants to spend his money.

    ReplyDelete
  24. It's just simple, cut your cloth according to your size. Besides you shouldn't spend much on a first date, unless if that girl is a gold digger. Take her out for dinner in an exquisite restaurant, after that go see a movie. That should do.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Hahahahahaha... Hilarious response.. Some people spend more than that, it all depend on what u earn and the venue for the date.

    ReplyDelete
  26. O boy..........On first date?......I fit do ham if I get money like linda ikeji....

    ReplyDelete
  27. Hahaha..funny tweets
    Even our Lord God asked for 10%.then who r u..that one cracked me up. Anyways if u have the money u shuld spend it.nothing is too much on a lady you love.just that guys will always see ladies like they are after the money,sha ladies of nowadays like money.but its rare to see a man that will want to spend 50k on a date nd don't want anything in return

  29. 50k is about $170, this time last year that was about 17k, so I think it's ok to spend 50k if u can afford it.

  33. On my first date, the guy spent about 40k..it was no biggie. I was really young and he was based in the uk..i was just young and naive. Wasn't into money or anything like that. The guy never even slept with me. We dated for almost 2yrs! But sadly, he couldn't keep up with the distance. He's married now and so am I to different people. But we are still friends. It's no big deal hw much u spend.

  45. It depends!
    Is not all about the money, u can spend it if u have it. But as they said “first impressions” matters the most.

We'd rather do sometin minimal and save cash. That's me o cos I just hate wasteful spending, really not necessary..

    ReplyDelete
  80. If you have the money, why not. There is nothing there at all. But It is not advisable to do it when you do not have it. There is no need to impress a girl when you do not money. But I believe that Money will come when you are hardworking and very creative. It is good to spend it if you can afford to.

  82. In Nigeria 50k is a lot of money, depends on where you go to, it will be show off to spend on date that might not want a repeat, regardless of how much you spend. So a date for lunch, dinner or cinema or a drink. Regardless. 50k is too much

  118. Lol. This debate proves how poverty and greed has transformed the act of love and companionship! Why should a lady measure the value of relationship with a man by how much he spends. If you are compatible and in love, no amount is too much to care for your partner within your means!

    Abeg guys wise up

    better to save up and hit up Georgia, Florida or Las Vegas

    Spend 50k ($250) on one small yankee babe and she will twerk from today to tomorrow

    and yankee babes are fresher and sometimes sexier than these make over candidates prowling our communities

  147. Depending on how much u make and earn. And depends on where u take a girl to. There are some clubs where u go to where u buy a bottle of wine for 10k so to me if u earn big money 50k is nothing

    ReplyDelete
  148. #50k is a whole lot of money and to spend it on your first date depends on how much you earn.
    But personally I can't spend it on a date because I don't create unnecessary impression.
