Twitter Users in Nigeria are arguing on whether a Man earning N200,000 salary per month should conveniently start a family. While some believe it's adequate, others claim its not. More interestingly, some Ladies are stating that since Nigerian men easily make demands such as 'My wife must be submissive or know how to cook", they should also be able set standards for themselves and demand for a better life in order to start a family.

These animals saying rubbish! If they see 200k earning guy, their sisters, mother and them will fuck life out of the guy. They are on twitter making mouth. Am sure they've not seen up to that. Fake idiots.
DeleteAs innnnn eh these issues are so baseless. I married my husband in 2014 he had a 70k job and I didnt have a job then cos I had to relocate to where he stays. Now he earns above 300k and I have been more than happy because most importantly I married for love. So if 200k too small to even start with ma binu nor warry mbok. Anny
DeleteSome even start family with just 10k

ReplyDeletewhat of we that our father raise when he couldn't even earn 3000 as a salary? Go around lagos,aba,onitcha,ibadan,borno,,kastina,kano,kaduna,zamfara and see how much many of them were earning and still yet they are not complaining.
We should stop all these attention.

ReplyDeleteIt's very simple the girls that don't have one naira to their names are the ones making noise.
ReplyDeleteAbeg. Kip kwayet. One even said 'with the help of my wife'. I'm a cook, I cannot help you. Men and their double standards. You never spoke of assisting your wife in the kitchen in that post about Wife Not Cook, but she should work and help your 200k life. So, what are men good 4? Spilling sperm and watching football?
DeleteLol@spilling sperm and watching football. Ur mouth though.
DeleteFirst it was size of Manhood now it is 200K....who go marry,go marry abi marriage na by force?.*winks*
ReplyDeleteDt guy dt said he ll marry 2wives wid 200k kill it all. Cant stop laughing. In d real sense, ladies shld beta wake up n stop all dis rant abt 200k salary upward b4 settling down if mahority dnt wanna remain single. Cos they ll harldy find a young Gee dts still single n earning such in dis present economy.
ReplyDeleteSeriuosly all the people ranting now how much did their father earned as salary,if only you know what majority of people go through in the real sense to earn money and make a living you will be amazed...maybe a reasearch should be done on that and documented for these silly brats that cant even make 20k themselves to see..lets forget about the 5% of the super rich how does the remaining 85% earn their wages???...the hustle is real in nigeria and by every standard 200k per month is not bad as take home(please compare to our minimum wage and understand the complexity)
ReplyDeleteLeave them make them de there de form butty .when their expiring date done reach nobody go tell them.
DeleteAll these fake asses ranting on twitter smh.b4 u knw it u'll be 40 in your father's house then dat time u'll be the ones givng guys money.the Rich ppl of 2day started small.the fact that a Man starts wit 200k dnt mean hez never gona increase in life.#womenwitnowisdomwomenoftheworld#
ReplyDelete200k is very okay nah, pls who wants to get married here, except say i no like u, otherwise wit less dan that i will marry you, its all abt love.
ReplyDeletePeople and pretence. Make dem dey there dey wait for 200k above salary. Even here in Abuja u cut ur clothes according to ur size how can u go and rent 1m house. Our parents raise us far less than what we earn today and we all graduated successfully and doing well. Guyz don't wait till u start earning 200k b4 u get married. Find a partner and settle down bcos time waits for no man. Some pple on Twitter will be 60 yrs plus and their kids will still be in nursery school (SMH)
ReplyDeleteI am Coonett
With 200k as your salary i will marry you, except say i no like you, for goodness sake 200k is fine, abeg who wan marry for here?
ReplyDeleteThe painful part is that some of these babes ranting that they cant marry a guy that earns 200k per month are from poor homes...It's not a must u send your kids to Corona if u cant afford it....Some of those babes even attended public schools....Mind you....My husband earns 200k and I earn 150k,we're doing wonderfully great...It's all about priority...Even if your husband earn 1million naira per month,if u didn't set your priorities right,your home,marriage,finances and lots will still crumble
ReplyDeleteAnon 4:32, poverty was thrust upon them,they did not choose it and it's ok to aspire to better. Stop chatting shit.
DeleteMay God bless you and your family forever for this post Ma ! .... I had to screengrab this post
Deleteyou are blessed forever for this 'truth..i know pple who are highly paid but still borrow to meet up....ur salary determines ur standard of living,if u earn 5million naira ,u will definitely have 5million naira worth of bills to pay in whatever form dey come.

DeleteWell on a more serious note,N200,000 in this present time might or might not be adequate based on the current state of hardship in this country.One has to be financially buoyant before starting a family;you can't expect one to be living a life of borrowing.
ReplyDelete200k is more than enough to start a family. Hit it big..get your sensational soccer prediction tips for Friday & Saturday, August 26th & 28th 2016 @ www.fortunatusblog.com
ReplyDeleteWELL I DON'T BLAME HIM THO!
ReplyDeleteAUNTY LINDA 👩
To me, 200k is enough. After all will d wife just be idle?will she be out of a job? When both couple earn money, it's easier to take care of a family. Besides, no one should be having more than three kids in this present days.
ReplyDeleteCan't start a family unless both parties earn 200K. Don't want to be 'managing'
ReplyDeleteThose lazy girls should be waiting for guys that earn much more than 200k/monthly to marry them.... some guys earn less than that but also have investments. Plan your life no matter the amount you earn
ReplyDeleteEva Da Diva...
Wtf are they saying? Over 45% of family men in Nigeria earn 200k or less monthly... And that's a matter of fact! You just have to economise or you agonise.. 200k is very ok. Remember our minimum wage in this country is 18k and most of them 18k-45k earners are married with kids
ReplyDeleteNa me talk am!
Long Live Lib!!!
Linda, you don hear na, Hope Linda Ikeji media will set a higher standard for her staff... #300k and above... Double your hustle
ReplyDeleteWhat nonsense are they even Ranting sef about? Many people that doesn't even Earns Closer to that starts Family and they are leaving Fine....
ReplyDelete200K is pretty enough to start a family,cut ur coat according to ur size period.
ReplyDeleteKeep waiting for a man dat earns much more dan 200k monthly and wen u finally meet him, ur fellow parents will be addressing u as 'mummy/daddy' during ur child's PTA meeting,and u will see urself still going for 'school runs'at 60yrs. Time waits for no one. U should marry a good man with vision and also make a living so as to augment wateva he earns. #justsaying#
ReplyDelete200k is not enough to start a family, coming from people who do not earn a dime!!! Oya na!!
ReplyDeleteDis is bullshit talk abeg... 200k dat people can do anytin to earn. people still earn 50k and are living.

ReplyDeleteGod punish ur fadas!! How many company's pay 120k nowadays. Na una no get work na una wan above 200k.
ReplyDeleteFools talking as if they are making upto the 200k even in one year will come in twitter nd say rubbish. Most of them are still living in face me I face u apartment. Kip deceiving urselfs
ReplyDelete200k is Ok, that's 2.4 million per annum with proper planning, if ur a good wife supporting ur husband his financial staus sud increase one u get married to him....lets wake up to the reality and stop forming
ReplyDeleteStarting with 200k doesn't mean you will never earn more dan dat in life. What some pple r earning is not up to 100k and dey have a family. There is nothing wrong in dreaming big buh dream with sense!!!
ReplyDeleteHahaha really dream with sense.

ReplyDeleteThe fellow who ask that question is probably doing some menial job
ReplyDeleteWhat I see here are lazy ladies who don't even earn a dime aiming for guys that earn more than 200k. Yo'all will end waiting till yo old. Marriage is called a union. U bring your 200k nd ur husband will bring his.
ReplyDeleteWORD!!

Lotta worthless Bitches polluting the blogsphere with their pathetic rants.

ReplyDeleteTo ladies which do you prefer #200k on paper that your boss will owe till thy kingdom come or 100-150 which comes consistently and in bulk?
ReplyDeleteWomen wise up oooo
ReplyDeleteFoolish girls, even one of the richest men in Nigeria was once a cab driver. Pple just need to see life from different perspectives before concluding.
ReplyDeleteYou must meet the requirements of your requirements
ReplyDeleteYou don't get to set quality standards you personally can't meet. No you don't.

ReplyDeleteLinda dt az al d moni sef is looking for husband, dix mumu ashewos ar setin goals dt ar nt achieve able, no wonder dey jump frm one club, party, mall, GRA, men to anoda afta bin used lik a tractor, Even if ur parents sent yu to fine schs (its ur parents duty to mk sure u gt sound & quality education) yu cud tel dem to stat looking up husband 4u too dt earn 1mill/mth. Okada man wey dey deliver perday gt pikin 4 private nursery schs & even on his i-beta-pass-my-neibor-gen ery nite..... useless bitches,naso una go clock 50 b4 una go manage mary person wey dem go wrk una wit... holes on fleek...... erywia.
ReplyDeleteWell im highly disappointed with some comments on this topic, I believe that someone that earn 200k can marry comfortable with support of his wife because is two people that come together to build a home. The major problems Nigeria have is that our women rely on their husbands without any contribution or supportive as a wife, i could remembered i was raised in a family my mum earn #12,000 a month back in 80's and we all (7 Childrens)end up be a landlords in Lagos and 4 leave in abroad. The key point is the amount earn monthly, but the love and support we have for each other.
ReplyDeleteNo employer will pay u more than 10% of your productivity,that means you u are a potential two million per month earner if u decide to be your own boss,but for all those lazy women out there waiting for a man earning above 200k will finally end up with borrow pose fine boy with zero income,oyo is your case.
ReplyDeleteHere in Dhaka, I earn close to that sewing clothes. But in Lagos it is ok, especially if your or newly married or want to have on child. With a single child you could save 300K a year. It depends if they want to live within their means. Have one or two children and call it a day.
ReplyDeleteHousing (25%)
Transportation (15%)
Food (15%)
Iyawo/stuff (10%)
savings (10%)
health (5%)
education or savings (20%)
Cynthia pls am ready oh and searching!!!
ReplyDeleteEven Dangote his grandpa gave him #500k 2 start a business
ReplyDeletehelp me ask lindaikeji iya olowo, can she marry me with the #35k i earn monthly?
ReplyDeleteEven in America....how many guys make 500 dollars a month?
ReplyDeleteThis has to be one of the funniest post ive seen since Wedesday. Please we can right here see why marriages never last in this our generation. These ladies posting up and down should go and ask their folks if na so them they find good men. Yeah 200k might not be that much but its OK to START a family. Before your kidz come you can plan for education and what not. HMMM majority of rich young men will marry you and still feel superior to your dead asses and cheat on you and do you anyhow cause he knows 70% reason why you married him is cause of the comfort he cn provide for you (doesnt mean you cant find good rich men). NIGERIAN LADIES OPEN YOUR EYES. Only in this country you hear such.
ReplyDeleteOh my God! There are no wives out there anymore cos wives know how to manage their family with anything the husband brings home. God created them to manage.
