This doesnt apply to every man oo. I was living in a single room when i met my wife and i was a teacher. Three years later we got married. Long story short, our marriage is twelve years old, we have 3 children and we are doing very well financial. Things didnt immediately turn around for us after our marriage, but my wife was a great support and managed ever resource i made available then, no matter how small. She never disrespected me and that is why i dont spare any expense when i want to spoil her now. So it doesnt apply to every man and marriage. Lessons like this will only cause young men to go looking for money by all means necessary. Ask the rich men in Nigeria today whether they were wealthy before they got married...

I'll never be poor button🙏🏿

“You can feed a woman for 50 years,but if she feeds you for 5 months the whole world will hear about it”

Am crying right now...for the young ones coming from a poor background, please let's make money but through decent means

Moral of the story dont be broke

Never underestimate the wisdom of a old black man

I was dumped over brokeness. Singlehood is surprisingly peaceful

If I ever get rich, I won't let people know and study how they treat me. I'll know who's real and who's not.

“When a man has no money he has no respect from his wife.” 👏🏾👏🏾

When a poor man acts like a crazy person, we call him insane. When a rich man acts like a crazy person, we say he’s weird/eccentric.

there are millions of languages but this man decided to speak just facts

As a young man with little money I can tell you forget these girls and keep your money 🤣🤣

I was planning on being poor, but after this video, I changed my mind.

If you don’t have money don’t get married simple don’t let anyone put you under any pressure

If you're wealthy and have a good health you're living heaven on earth

"I will be rich" button 👇

Who needs Tate when you have Sir Apoki

This video didn't come to my recommendation by chance, The World is telling me something

This man can convince any man to behave well and invest 😂😂

If a woman says you owe her something - never interact with this woman again.

I want to believe that we live in a world where money doesn't a play a factor in finding a partner but the first thing they ask is "what do you do for work?" 😂

“You must enter her gates with something in your hands… and there will be thanksgiving in her heart…” 💀😂

I saw hell when I came back to Nigeria after my masters... i could barely manage a relationship past few months...God willing... I own houses now...I don't wish poverty on any man... its hell on earth

I will never settle for less and i will be work my way to wealth

So trueeeee…not having money destroyed my marriage. Going through divorce now.

“You start introducing yourself to your wife 🤣🤣🤣

Ive been married 13 years..the first 3 i was so broke. For ten years now i have never cooked, cleaned, or prepared my outfit for the next day. I am blessed to have my wife. I am blessed to be able to provide amd maintain. Thank god! I am by no means rich..but as a young man at 37 years of age..you have to find a livable income!

As long as you have God, you have everything you need.

The Bible says the poor man is hated by his neighbor

Dr. Apoki. Today's video is very deep. Even the dogs in your neighborhood will disrespect you when you are poor. I will watch this video again and again. Thank you.

As a man who don't have money, you should not be looking for a woman. Money answers everything. Not love. Period!

Old Age is a blessing when you have money ooh... SO HELP US GOD...

Dr. You are bursting my brain. I will make money so that my children both male and female will live a better life.

If you were born dead poor like me and understand that struggle He is talking about gather here....The one of Temper is very True...

This video is too deep, comical and extremely valuable at the same time

I don’t ever treat people who don’t have money poorly. If you do, the problem lies with YOU, not them! Some of you people are going to get a rude awakening on judgement day! See if your money helps you then.

It seems a lot of men aren't aware that as a man, u must seriously prepare for ur old age, and that means u must be financially capable to take care of ur needs, as we all as pray for sound health, so that even if u have money, ailments wont take it away! The man's life is such a conundrum!

Don't you know I'm your husband 😂😂😂😂 Dr Apoki's wisdom is unique 🎉❤

He is right. My brother had no money, and he was miserable. It showed in his behavior. He felt less of a man because he couldn't provide for his family. G-d rest his soul though.

The first thing I ever heard you say was "I am your friend". My heart melted when I heard that.

Remember Brothers, its better to be born broke then to be born into wealth. You will respect the hard work you put in

Your words may not be popular especially in western cultures where I come from but what you speak is a universal truth. I wish your teachings could fill the classrooms of today’s youth to inspire an additional reason why a good education will propel our young men into the professional workforce thus helping them be better husbands and respected lovers to their wives. Dr. Bob

4:45 he said they will marry what is available. not who is available. 🤣 wiseman🤗

Money isn’t the only way to gain respect, matter fact, money is the worst way to gain respect in a relationship

'No matter how spiritual you are women like money' This man dropping BARS! LOL

I agree with you my oga 100% If a man thinks that having financial capacity doesn't matter, this mindset he has is at his own peril. He shall SUFFER ALONE.

I like the mix of humor and true talk😂

That the dark things no one talks about but everyone thinks the sameway 😢

Thank you for this. The man you’re speaking about is my father and I always felt he did me a disservice by not guiding me as his son.

My grandpa used to say "Poverty is a sin."

As a nigerian doctor, everything he said is 100% accurate.

If you don't have money, the gate is not properly oiled self 😅😂

Broke or rich, I will be happy regardless because happiness is internal. Nothing from outside can make you happy if you aren’t happy inside. Look at all the rich and or famous people that committed suicide, hooked on drugs etc. I want to come back to peace at home and not have someone because society wants me to.

As an American lady Dr.Apoki, I enjoyed this video.

This man just dey attack me and my papa anyhow 😂😂😂😂 Make i shaa go double my hustle 😂

What my dad told me is money don't mean nothing if you have poor character. There's plenty of cowards with money

If women, your kids, people only respect you because you have money, is it you they respect? No, they respect the money(paper) over you (the soul) & those aren't the kind of people worth having in one's life... The "respect" you get through money is nothing but a rented illusion. A wise man once said his aim in life was not to make more money, but to make many more great relationships worldwide so that wherever he went, *his money would be no good.* The real currency is RELATIONSHIP (true deep connection), not only with others but most importantly with yourself. *A boat doesn't sink from the water around it, it sinks from the water it lets inside it...* Letting outside things like money define you or determine your self-worth is ignorance and a shortcut to less peace of mind. Misery and unhappiness are experienced from the inside out, so never let the outside world convince you that external things like money get you respect, fulfilment, or happiness. Your experience of life starts & ends with YOU... not money. *"The gates of hell are locked from inside." C.S. Lewis*

If you don’t have money, you will be at the mercy of everyone including NEPA, Neighborhood, & even strangers. Poverty stinks.

I will never be poor in Jesus name

As a poor man this is absolute facts. And hearing it feels terrible.

Thank you Daddy for this profound information. Infact when you don't have money as a man your eyes will see your ears. Thank you the motivation..

I’m a very ambitious and hard working man. I’m working towards something and if you can’t wait, free to leave. I’m not gonna speed up my process for anyone. My family worked hard for me to be here today so respect it.

Whatever we've been taught, the world doesn't owe us any kindness.

My parents lived during a time of war when they were only school children. They always tell me how they were hiding in basements and going to school during the bombings and shootings of innocent civilians. Well, they only got the most basic education (1-4 grade) and didn't have the chance to get more educated because the situation was getting worse. That's why I respect every cent my parents earn though their hard work and appreciate every little gift from them even if it is only a sock. I got a laptop from them as a celebration for finishing 9th grade. Now I'm aiming even higher to give my parents at least something back.

The adultery case got me rolling on the floor. Hypocrisy in the church is sickening 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Algorithm did it. I'm the lastborn here. Let me tell you, about the money. about the meetings. But I am inspired about the story of King David. He was the one the family least expected.

Whether u think u can or can't you're absolutely right

Real respect is supposed to be a CHARACTER TRAIT (who you are), not a transactional tool you earn, lose, barter or use to get what your Ego desires... You should respect others because YOU are a respectful person, and doing otherwise would be acting out of character (thus, no one should EVER have the power or control to make you be disrespectful & figuratively act out of your respectful character). If your kids don't respect you because you have no money, it means you failed at raising respectful humans. Once respect becomes something to be bought/earned, it is no longer character. It becomes a commodity/tool. And just like commodities and tools, it can be lost or controlled by external factors.

I never respected someone simply because they had money. The ability to provide for a family is respectable, but it’s not make or break. I respect a person’s character first and foremost. Money or lack thereof doesn’t change that.

Real talk Sir. I sleep n wake up with this thinking, it's my BIGGEST MOTIVATION to grow. If u're above 26yrs n don't knw these things already then u're dangerously naive or from a very comfortable family n very inexperienced. Either ways u still need to knw it.

This is giving off old and foolish vibes. The right knowledge & a powerful way to execute it is more important than just having money.

Very true, as a woman raised by a man I can tell you hard working men are better, that's what my Dad taught me and its what I would tell my son, get to work and forget what the feminists say.

...'money answereth all things' Ecclesiastes 10, 19

This was tough for me to accept of how shallow it is but is reality

This videos is just sad and actually reality in itself... I pray Everyman wins in their respective endeavors

I recently came into some money, not much but enough to not work a year(I still work a job) one thing I noticed is that I have never been soo relaxed and anxiety free. It’s truly a beautiful feeling Edit: if anything it’s inspired me to earn more and not blow it. I love this feeling

Dr Apoki, you are a bad, bad man. That’s why I admire you!!!!!

100% TRUTH. GOD BLESS YOU BRO, I WISH MY FATHER TOLD ME THESE THINGS.❤

Omo, poor man de really go through a lot😂💔 I’ll never be poor🙏

Dear Doctor, a fatherless young man here. Your word cut my heart deeper than any blade. Now yours were more like a blade of harsh truths. The truths which I used to deny due to my infantility. Money is a foundation. I’m 26 now and I have just realize that all my problems, be them mental-wise, health-wise, relationship-wise were based upon my poverty mindset. Again, I say I denied that money talks. My so-called spiritual and cloud-nined ego was so “above” the essence of money that it led to circumstances where all I think, wish, cry and talk about is money. My thousand thanks for the knowledge you give. I feel shattered yet so grounded because I shook off the illusion I lived in. It will take time but now I’m determined to change. My dearest God, please save me from poverty and help me rise anew. Be my guide and send wisdom upon me on the way to You. Amen.

Thank you for being there for some of us that never had a father to tell us this!

I wouldn't say money, but respect resources and security

I don't really know this Old Man.....But I respect him already.....Much love from 🇬🇭

I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed forever. I'm a single mother living in Vancouver Canada, bought my first house in October and hoping to retire soon if things keep going smoothly for me.

Very true but men please don’t go and steal or kill just to get money. Watch his other videos for money tips.

this explains why there are so many scammers in Nigeria, I guess.

Every son needs to hear this as much as possible! My God! Thank ou for sharing!!!

This is very true. Contrary to popular opinion money will contribute to 98% of your happiness on this planet.

Is a must, that "You should enter her gate with an offering in your hands then she will have thanks given in her heart." Eeii 😂 True wisdom here.

From all you have said, you are maintaining your wife! She doesn’t want you for who you are

The struggles for men are real.

Someone once told me this: Without money, a man ain't a man but a child.

This video will soon have the highest views out of all the videos Dr. apoki has done. Uncommon Truth everywhere.

this from you is Worldly wisdom, you are promoting the worship of Mammon! If we put God first we do not need to worry about these things. And God judges the rich more toughly than He judges the poor. May God bless you.

The moment this video hit 1 second This man is speaking facts ! Thank you 🙏🏿

Very important message, men let’s listen. Let’s not be fooled otherwise 👌🏽

I grew up poor and still currently am living in the hardest phase in my life currently. I’m filled with anxiety and stress. But I WILL be someone big one day and will be great. My mother and father worked their asses off for me and I will repay them one day.

Ah the good Dr Apoki, dropping some serious wisdom. Brilliant Sir!!!
