to get married, settle down and start a career

I heard this statement but what does it mean.

Ua2 gai7 giang6ngi2 si6 a1di6 soin1 bhoi2 gai7 pou3ming7, soin1 lib8ngiab8 zai3 sêng5gê1

我個建議是阿弟先買個鋪面先立業再成家｜ 我个建议是阿弟先买个铺面先立业再成家

Let us explore first sêng5gê1lib8ngiab8 which is a Chinese idiom.

sêng5gê1lib8ngiab8

成家立業｜成家立业

This idiom means to get married, establish oneself by starting a career. In the above statement, the speaker has split the idiom into lib8ngiab8 i.e. establishing one’s career or in this case to start a business and then sêng5gê1 which means to get married and have a family.

Now we can consider other words in the statement.

giang6ngi2	建議｜建议	proposal, suggestion, recommendation
a1di6	阿弟	younger brother
soin1	先	first
bhoi2	買｜买	buy
pou3ming7	鋪面｜铺面	shop
pou3ming7 is a Mandarin word and we Teochew would normally say a diam3pou3店鋪｜店铺
zai3	再	then

I have given you enough clue and it is now your turn to explain what “Ua2 gai7 giang6ngi2 si6 a1di6 soiⁿ1 bhoi2 gai7 pou3ming7, soiⁿ1 lib8ngiab8 zai3 sêng5gê1” means in English.
