A serious wife knows proper management and cares for the home and children, while the man supports when both are present.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">This call echoes across families in Kumasi and Accra, where inflation hit 25% last year, squeezing household budgets. Asante, speaking at a recent men&#8217;s forum in the Ashanti Region, emphasised that modern marriages fail not from lack of love, but from poor financial stewardship. &#8220;Look for a woman who cooks, budgets, and nurtures the family first,&#8221; he advised. &#8220;Extravagant habits signal trouble ahead.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">Data from the Ghana Statistical Service supports this: 40% of divorces cite financial disputes, often rooted in mismatched priorities. Successful couples, like those in stable Adum households, share duties\u00a0 wives handling daily meals and child-rearing, husbands providing when home. &#8220;It&#8217;s teamwork,&#8221; says married father of three, Kofi Mensah. &#8220;My wife turned our small salary into a thriving home; no restaurant splurges.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">Young men attending the forum nodded in agreement, rethinking dating apps for values like thriftiness and care. Asante challenged, &#8220;Have you considered the type of woman to marry? Peace of mind starts with her management skills.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">Cultural elders reinforce this, drawing from Akan proverbs: &#8220;The home is built by wise hands, not empty pockets.&#8221; As Ghana navigates 2026&#8217;s challenges, this timeless wisdom could safeguard families.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"bg-subtle h-px border-0\" \/>\n<p class=\"my-2 [&amp;+p]:mt-4 [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [&amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an era of rising living costs and economic uncertainty, experts and traditional voices are<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30684,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,44],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-scaled.jpg",2560,1291,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-300x151.jpg",300,151,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-768x387.jpg",640,323,true],"large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-1024x516.jpg",640,323,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-1536x775.jpg",1536,775,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-2048x1033.jpg",2048,1033,true],"chromenews-featured":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-1024x516.jpg",1024,516,true],"chromenews-large":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-825x575.jpg",825,575,true],"chromenews-medium":["https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-590x410.jpg",590,410,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"nkyeremunews","author_link":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/author\/nkyeremunews\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/category\/uncategorised\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Nkyeremu<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/category\/social-impact\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Social Impact<\/a>","tag_info":"Social Impact","comment_count":"0","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/BeFunky-collage-2026-01-28T143110.226-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30680"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30680"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30680\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30688,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30680\/revisions\/30688"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nkyeremunews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
