my family is pushing me to get married because i already found my perfect match but i think now is not yet the right time to settle down. i have explaining to them that getting married is a big step to take and that requires a lot of preparations. i told them that i don't like to marry yet because i still have to work and i really want to become rich first. i don't like to get married and then later i will ask finances from them. if ever i have a family i want to raise them with my own feet. but my aunt insisted that i should not let money rule over my plans of marrying. what do you think of this?

I am telling you this from personal experience. My husband and I are not rich we never were to begin with. Together we have 4 beautifull kids and always manage to get by without having to ask for financial help from our families. Yes things are tight we do utilize the state system for small things which help in huge ways but no matter what it works out. For me the money dosnt matter what matters is the love we have for eachother. That is what keeps us together in the end not the money. If you let money run your life you will never get married.

money can be a hindrance to every one's marriage but i think it would be best if you'll prioritize first proving to yourself that he's deserving to be your man and have him as an inspiration towards having a beautiful career.
