I am Ready for Marriage… But…

I am quite ready for marriage at this point in time and I realize that the only thing that is holding me back is the lack of a big fat account in my bank or a big fat paycheck at the end of every month. I am now running the risk of hitting the big 30 and the losing the chance of marrying my awesome girlfriend that is KuKuNehNeh.

It does worry me as my 2 biggest crippling flaws I have is the inability to save and the ability to procrastinate.

“Why scrimp and save a million dollars and die a millionaire?”

“Why do it today when I can do it tomorrow?”

 

The only times when I go against my innate flaws are when the situation becomes less of me and more of someone else. And in this case, wanting to get married is as much of a want to KKNN as it is to me. As big as her desire to bear Eurasian kids, she has expressed willingness to bear children with me and run the potential of having kids with small eyes, huge eyebags and fat noses. See how wonderful that woman is?

And so, I shall move out of my comfort zone and strive to earn enough money to make this marriage happen soon.

Hmmm…. Maybe I’ll start tomorrow…

    Just FYI, one of my good friend had a stable job, good career path so he felt ready to get married. A few months after the wedding, his company did a massive downsizing and he got retrenched.

    I know it feels irresponsible to marry when you don’t have a fat bank account but it goes to show that one can never plan to well.

    Sorry, I just thought of something. I think I’d rather marry a guy who have good financial habits even if at the moment, he does not yet have a fat bank account, rather than a guy with a fat bank account but who is obviously a big spender.

    The fat bank account won’t last forever, but a guy with good financial habits (e.g. save 30%, spend 30%, invest 30% and donate 10%) will surely grow a bank account.

    If you were previously a big spender, it’s not too late of course.

      @Hillary> Your good friend is really unlucky but I guess it’s no surprise that something like that can happen. True that one can never plan too well but I guess I haven’t even reach that minimum point when I can say, “Hmmmm… this might work.”

      And you are most right about finding someone who has good financial habits. I admit I don’t have them but I am changing even as we speak. ALL FOR THE FUTURE!!!

    i personally think that marriage is not about bridal gowns/suits, nor it is about wedding dinners held at 5 star hotels.

    marriage is a lifetime thing which comes with mutual trust, security and love for each other. marriages are getting much commecialized and materialistic. my cousin and her husband got married at their place with only family members present, yet they were happy and received well-wishes from everyone.

    my boyfriend and I are dating with the prospect of getting married, and with this entry of yours, I guess both of us will have to change our spending habits. we may break up in the future but improving our spending habits will prove beneficial?

      @Apple> I do think if it were entirely up to me, It will be the simplest of gatherings with family and important friends to celebrate the marriage. But there is the responsibility to the older generation to hold the traditional wedding dinner which will cost a bomb.

      You should totally save up as early as you can. As you said, it may prove beneficial whatever the future holds.
