Well, my folks helped me out as well as my other relatives. If you cant do it alone, ask for help from your people. If you don’t have people, then you do what you are capable of doing.

nimeona 3 similar situations

hamkua na shida ya negotiations?

Wont pay a cent.

Not really. My cousin have had, and we just retreated outside, collected ourselves and came back with a counter offer. Usually, they will cave in, otherwise the chic will just leave anyway.
The only case where i know the chic’s people walikaa ngumu was where my pal was trying to marry a sudanese chic. The chic’s family wanted 100cows or something like that. And on that one there was no negotiation. He was allowed to bring them slowly but that story fell apart when he was caught with an import :smiley:

huyo ni dame wa @Ice_Cube :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Bride price inakuaga 400k? Nlidhani ni ma meter

Mimi naona sio lazima ulipe upfront, lipa ile unaeza then io ingine ni polepole…Lakini for the average Nairoby girl ata ndururu sitoi, kama ni kutoa lazima ikue exotic breed kile, lavi hivi hivi

You don’t pay the brideprice at once. I understand it is a lifetime obligation which by the way can even go unpaid after the first instalment

100 cows between 4500000 and 6000000:D:D

Yep, hii story ni pole pole, let inflation be your friend. Mtu aliitishwa 50k in 1990(a lot of money back then), na bado anailipa hadi sahii, he doesn’t feel a thing

Hahaha nikiona post ka hizi nahurumia wale ma boys hawaja -marry.
The truth is ukilipa mahari na upewe dame awe wife wako, mkirudi kwako she will be more respectful coz anajua watu wao wamekula mali yako .
Ananyenyekea !
On the plus size your parents will support n respect u!
