                                FINANCIAL MATURITY 




It is unwise for a person to enter into marriage without a sure and steady income. Being financially mature does not mean having millions of naira in your bank account, it simply means you have a regular flow of income with which to meet daily financial obligations. 
Money is one of the biggest reasons why marriages break up all over the world. If you do not want your marriage to boost up the statistics, you need to build  a steady financial platform before getting married. Before ever thinking of marriage, knowing fully well the responsibilities attached to it, a young man should, among other things, be financially independent. 
If you still depend on your parents, guardians, friends and/or relatives for dole outs to pay bills, top up your phone, get your meals or feed your dependants, then please do not get married..........how do you intend to run your home on other people's income. 
REMEMBER; SENDING YOUR WIFE HOME TO YOUR IN  - LAWS IS A SHAMEFUL THING TO DO. 
Before bringing that maiden home, please try this: Buy a puppy and feed it for three months. If after three months you are still financially buoyant enough to continue feeding it, then you are close to the measure of a man that can take care of a woman 
To have a fulfilling marital life, decide on your views about money and find someone who shares those views. Your wife may have a good job, this in itself is not a reason to become a parasite. Develop yourself and with the stable income from your wife, you can build a solid financial fortress. So to be 
Financially matured, you must 
(a) Be willing to work and provide for the family 
(b) Have a regular income 
(c) Be prudent

CHECKLIST #3 DO I TRULY LOVE HIM/HER? Love, lust, infatuation are experiences with very fragile line of demarcation.  A woman who is driven by infatuation may become a victim of a man who is driven by lust. The union between this two will crash and the pieces  will be so difficult to put together. Any marriage contracted out of genuine love between the two parties will end well. The question to ask is;  am I marrying him because of his build or her beauty? If he or she becomes 70 years old with bald head or falling teeth, will I still love him/her? In case of severe sickness, can I clear his waste without pinching my nose or twisting my mouth? Supposed there are no children, will he /she still be the apple of my eyes? There is the story of this lady who was diagnosed with cancer a few months after her wedding. She was made to go through chemotherapy treatment and after the treatment, she looked 80 years older than her normal age with fallen hair and wrinkled face....

          BEFORE GETTING MARRIED     MATURITY BEFORE GETTING MARRIED   It is a known fact that maturity is key in marriage. Marriage, whichever way or place it is consummated is  not for kids. A successful marriage can only be built by two matured people who are willing to  - Make sacrifices in whichever way it is demanded  - Forgive as many times as offences come  - Overlook faults as if they never occurred  Unfortunately, maturity does not always come with age and for most people, it has to be consciously learnt and practiced.  If you want to make your marriage work, you must start making efforts before  the wedding date  is fixed to “wake up and grow up “. You must be determined to grow as an individual and develop your minds, intellect and emotions to the maximum level that can ensure peaceful co-habitation.  Even though the following list is not inclusive, to have a joyous marriage, individua...
