A Nigerian writer and public speaker, Praise George, has spoken about the issue of marriage, citing money as an important factor.
In his tweet on Wednesday, September 23, he advised the rich, telling them that marrying a person who is poor will be a very big mistake.
George went ahead to show the disparity between those two classes of people and why a committed relationship involving them will never work.
He said that there will always be a money issue in the marriage as the poor only think scarcity. He added that they also “have zero money making habits”.

In a subsequent tweet, the man said:
“90% of all the marriages between the rich and the poor are destroyed by money issues.”
The writer added that such could be prevented if both parties are financially buoyant, saying a situation where one partner has more always “breeds resentment, envy, and anger”.

People who reacted to his tweet had a lot to say with some disagreeing with his opinion:
@francisderefaka said:
"The ‘rich’ you are describing here is not rich! A rich man is a ‘lifter of men’ if your ‘rich’ truly thinks abundance as mentioned in your tweet, he wld not be afraid to marry anyone because he knows who he is. D one who has not seen wealth, says it’s has issues."
@JRosannaware said:
"This is true. Relationship works better when both have some sort of finances on their own. At least not putting all the burden on one."
@Kc4life7 said:
"So you think every poor man doesn't think abundance for once?"
