Re: MY SALARY WAS JUST INCREASED TO 35K, IS DAT ENOUGH 2 START THINKING OF MARRIAGE?
@florafab.....i strongly disagree with u. if ur expenses are more than your income, then it means u have another source of income. its just simple arithmetic or u are living above your means so u are buying stuff on credit (which is not exactly a good habit). if u earn 20k and u spend 30k, wat does that mean?

...Agreed! But, we are made to know in that same Book that "A man who can not take care of his family is worse than an INFIDEL"
Anyone who lives based on your explanation of "having more expenses than income" will really have to sit up. In all ramifications, it's not a good way of living.
I still maintain that with 35K, you can't run a family comfortably except:
1. You live in a 1 or 2 room (face me I slap u) apartment in a remote village.
2. You are ready to feed your children with pap from birth.
3. You are not prepared to invest in the future of your children by sending them to good schools.
4. And many more...
Our destiny lies in our hands. The resultant effect is our responsibility.
Remember, God will not do for man what man can do for himself.

is the grace.
That a man earns 200k and still go borrowing doesn't imply that he doesn't have "The Grace".
What if he has a project at hand; like building a house or raising capital to start his own business?
Re: MY SALARY WAS JUST INCREASED TO 35K, IS DAT ENOUGH 2 START THINKING OF MARRIAGE?
@florafab. . . . . . .maybe i dont get the meaning of income ???. is it ur salary that was 5k or everything u get in a month?. i might have been earning 25k as a corper, my parents give me 10k, an uncle or aunt gives me the occasional change here and there and probably in a month i get as much as 50k. if i spend 40k, im i living above my means? (considering i EARN 25k?). i think the answer is no!. because 40k is still less than 50k. like i said,this is simple arithmetic. if the only money u received a month (from all angles - allowee,parents,siblings etc) was 5k and u could feed, get your hair (and nails) done, buy clothes, buy shoes, pay tfare, buy units for your phone etc, then im really scared of u. God is graceful but HE is not a magician!!.

No doubt, many of us had that kind of privilege and that was because we were still seen as students. One would rarely get that kind of "handout" as a family man or woman.

Thinking about marriage is not the same as getting married.You can think about marriage with an income of 35k,It doesn't mean one is finacially stable to be among the married.Here lies the power of a mind.If you believe that with 35k you can marry then i believe you can.
