Nigerian singer Spyro has made a bold statement about his personal goals and values, revealing that he will not get married until he has at least N500 million in his bank account.
Reflecting on His Childhood Struggles
Taking to his Instagram Story, Spyro opened up about the hardships he faced growing up, stressing his determination to break the cycle of poverty and create a better life for his future family.
He emphasized the importance of proper financial planning and guidance, pointing out how many in his generation prioritize frivolous lifestyles over meaningful growth.
“Many people today are gallivanting and indulging in frivolities instead of focusing on building a solid foundation for the future,” he wrote.
Why N500M Before Marriage?
Spyro shared that he could not afford toys as a child, which he attributed to bad parenting and lack of financial stability.
“I grew up in a difficult environment. I want to make sure my children never experience the struggles I went through.”
To avoid repeating these challenges, the “Who’s Your Guy” crooner has set a personal financial goal—amassing N500 million before settling down.
“I will not marry until I have at least N500 million in my account.”
Ultimately, Spyro’s message emphasizes the importance of financial stability, personal growth, and responsible parenting in breaking the cycle of poverty and creating a better future for oneself and one’s family.
He wrote: “I blame all these on bad parenting….”Train up a child (male/female) the way he should go and when he grows, he will not depart from it. A lot of us should be focused on ending the circle of poverty so that our children won’t be victims too but unfortunately, my generation just dey gallivant about, indulging in frivolities..hmm
“I was talking to someone earlier today about how I was never opportune to have toys as a kid; my childhood wasn’t the easiest, but one thing I told myself from a very tender age. My kids will never have to go through what I did and so I put myself to rigorous work. In fact, I will never marry without having N500m in my account. I fought, cried, and prayed, and today, I can afford to give my kids the life they want so they don’t become prey as I almost became one.
This should be what we should focus on not criticizing.
“Nevertheless, it’s not enough to provide, it is very Germane to also train them with the fear of God as that’s what separates a man from beast tendencies. The spirit of God in man is what regulates him and keeps him level-headed. Didn’t the Bible make reference to the heart of man? Desperately wicked who can know it? God over man is what keeps him sane”.
