income level that will make you accept a proposal or less than that wouldn't be enough to sustain in Pakistan (Punjab side).
Given that you need to pay rent and other utilities as well.
Hmm..I never really looked at it like that and assessed the guy’s specific salary in a $ amount. I would rather look at the direction the prospective is going, their education, drive, ambition and you can quite often see where someone may end up due to their family/upbringing and where they stand socially.
Everyone’s standard of living and expectations are different so choose a family where you would feel most comfortable adjusting into. Also, know that the first few years are hard especially if you are just starting your career. It takes a long time to get to where you want to be. If the guy is making less then that’s okay because as you grow and develop in your field, you climb the ladder. I think it’s important to work hard with your spouse and see marriage as a journey you both embark together and help each other throughout. It’s the guy’s job to ultimately provide for you but I think the wife can help out in so many other ways such as being a good support system, helping with the home and even working.
I also believe in looking at person overall personality and their goals and what they are doing right now to achieve those. If they have goals and hardworking, they will eventually have more money as well.
150,000 Rs
spot on. I think in Lahore you need at least something around 80k to survive as couple.
Rent of one portion + utilities = 25-30 k which leaves your disposable income to 50K
But Punjab is so big. Dont you have to shortlist the areas precisely cuz the expenses may be totally varied?
only different thing would be Rent . Other things dont differ much
That’s only like $1400 that’s like nothing lol
Best way for a girl to be is to make her own money then she can focus on chemistry, attractiveness and other qualities rather than sometimes settling for an unattractive older jerk. I am seeing after women empowerment there is a lot more pressure on guys to hit the gym, groom and pay attention to their interpersonal skills.
I am seeing a lot more financially strong women marry good looking guys who are taking care of domestic duties. My associates wife makes 4 times more than him and the expectation is that he looks after his physique and take responsibility of kids and home. More successful women are way more in demand so much bigger chance they will find a better mate. PS anyone dependent will not be treated good and that has been proven in studies.
Yup…I totally agree…which makes me think that she’s probably cheating on him.
=======================
Yes…however, she’s in more situations with men who could be her equals. If you’re in those type of situations and gatherings..dollars to donuts shit has happened. Just because he fulfills that need to me that doesn’t mean shit cause any guy who is fit can fill that need too.

There are many girls who make more money than husbands, Canadian govt updated laws so a father can take time off for parental leave for child birth.
This thread has taken a whole new direction once our beloved @Bobby1 has stepped in. What I made from his preaching is no need to get education or degree or work hard to establish your career and worry about family expenses. All you need to do is find a women who has already done all of this and get hitched.
Wow I am inspired.
Well, when you will get a chance to talk with the exact girl you would like to marry, you will find out that yourself. Also you can count together all the possible expenses monthly together with some extras, which all women and kids loves so much, some money for unexpected occasions unlucky days and then you have a clue how much work you have to put in to reach this kind of salary or choose some other girls who’s financial expectations are lower. Also there’s lots of other things to consider regarding marriage, like character, level of attractiveness and etc. etc.
And who marriages where woman earns more mostly fails? Because men starts to loose their sense of manliness and develops a lot of inner complexes which leads to bad behaviour and woman does not feel happy anymore, because she’s not feeling like a woman anymore. Even in western world most women won’t go for a men below their level, could be financial, could be intellectual, anything.
For every cities if you want to live well you need to earn good money.
