“Build an empire with your partner, not just wig collection. The best accessory is financial savvy paired with mutual support”

Former Big Brother Naija housemate Rachel Edward has come up for raps from fans and foes alike for constituting her a gold digger by advising fellow ladies not to date a man who earns N800,000 or less per month, especially in Lagos.

It is true Lagos is Nigeria’s both richest and most expensive state to live in, but the vast majority of its residents do not earn even N200,000 per month, a quarter of what Rachel floats as the benchmark for engaging in a romantic relationship hopefully leading to marriage.

“As a lady, you can’t settle for a man with N800,000 as salary in lagos. One wig and your man’s salary is finished baby girl,” she posted on X (Twitter).

Her post rankled with especially men, with Daddy Freeze – a rich man – stressing Rachel has not even scaled up to be a wife material to begin with.

“Out of every productive thing you can think of its wig that comes to your brain, no investment plan or idea on how the N800,000 can multiply in few month, just wigs, vibes and insha Allah, later you will come and be foaming in the mouth that men are not taking you serious.”

@DianaBest

“Let be sincere, N800,000 salary is too small now. Ahbi am I the one over reacting to it?

“What will N800,000 do for you in this economy? That money is too small.”

@LonelyAfrica

“Want those luxe wigs and more? Get a job. It’s better to invest in sth meaningful instead of stockpiling wigs.

“Build empires with your partners, not just hair collections. After all, the best accessory is financial savvy paired with mutual support.”

Daddy Freeze

“Get a job baby girl if you want to fund the soft life or be an 8/10 at least, which sadly you aren’t….”
