Comedian Zics Aloma Says Men Should Be Financially Stable Before Marriage

Comedian Zics Aloma has stressed that financial stability should come before marriage.

Sharing his views on Instagram, he argued that a man without a steady income should not rush into marriage, noting that societal pressure should not override financial readiness.

Drawing from his own experience, Zics Aloma said that although he is financially secure, he still feels unprepared for marriage, wanting to provide a certain lifestyle for his future spouse and children.

“I remember my mom calling me on my 34th birthday, asking when I would get married. Even though I’m financially stable, I still feel I’m not ready because there’s a kind of life I want to give myself, children, and wife,” he revealed.

He also recounted the story of a friend who rushed into marriage without being financially ready, frequently seeking help, which eventually forced him to cut ties.

“He sent me an invitation that he wanted to get married, saying marriage brings blessings. Soon after, he told me his wife was pregnant. I took on the responsibility, but at some point, I had to block him because he wasn’t ready to be responsible as a family man,” Zics Aloma said.

He advised young men, particularly those from Gen Z, to focus on developing skills early to achieve financial stability and be better prepared for marriage.
