| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/8/2006 5:01:37 PM | Oh Nipoliean! You can do better than your first post.
Lets go to town.
He's a drug dealer and a junkie.
He's shifting large volume drungs all over the world and cutting deals, big deals in the home.
He's neve got less than half a kilo of smack on him. It's a runing gauntlent with the cops wherever you go.
When hes not cutting deals screwing around . And sex is only ever with a comdom since he picked up aids. Even when the AIDS isn't bothering him he's so sick from drug usage that you have to wet nurse him totally.
And when he's not sick he in a total physcotic blackout and likely to kill anybody in his path. Doublely dangerous as he has loaded guns in every room in the house.
But he's rich!!!!!
Marry him? You tell me. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/9/2006 12:48:21 AM | Any woman who would marry a man based in any way on income will most likely NOT find true love.
Any woman that would marry a rich man just b/c he is rich is also a prostitute in EVERY sense of the definition.
I respect prostitutes more than gold diggers. At least prostitutes leave when your done. Gold diggers leave when THEY take everything.
I don't feel bad for the man who got the trophy wife and now lives in a duplex. YOU were a chump. You should have known better. EAT IT. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/9/2006 5:35:41 PM | Placenamehere:
What do you think about men that marry for money? Had one...he said and did all the right things in the beginning...till the love of HIS life came back into the picture...I paid him half...dumped him...it's only money and I'm happy now. Gold diggers come in all shapes and sizes. Don't assume the question meant women marrying for money. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/10/2006 7:46:52 PM | Placename, the question was NOT directly at just women, it was directly at everyone.
Include a man who marries for money as a prostitute as well if you'd like to use that logic. I agree with, Look, in that you are making ridiculous assumptions.
The women I know are intelligent, educated, independent and are capable of earning their own money, regardless of their marital status, thanks. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/10/2006 9:09:51 PM | After this 28 pages, may I ask if nobody wants to marry someone who is rich, then what do all the wealthy people do??? Are they all singles???? Or their marriages bound to fail ???
And if you are hopeless in love with a very rich, will you stop loving that person just because everyone view you as a golddgigger ?
And if you decide to get marry, how do you and how much effort you care to explain to the whole world in proving that you are not marry JUST for money???
Or as soon as you know they are rich, it is a turn off ??? I do not think being rich is fault of any person.
It is my thought for today, so tempted to start a new Thread on this. But air my query under this thread would be just the same, I suppose. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 4:33:03 AM | There are people in this world, who specifically set a goal to find and marry someone who is rich. Both men and women. There have been how to books written on the subject. What to do, where to go, how to catch them. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 5:55:53 AM | money is like anything else ti's a survival tool. many people think that it will bring you happiness but it really doesn't. if you don't have anything to go with it why bother?
me personally couldn't give a rat's azz if they have money or not, if i don't love them or EVEN like them then no i would not be walking down the aisle.
marrying for money is shallow. just like dating ONLY people that look like they walked out of gq. thre has to be more to the person besides looks and money.
just my op though lol

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 6:08:11 AM | Just because they were rich? Nahhhhhh. Now Rich AND Generous? hmmmmmmmmmm ,... They'de definately have to be Generous with their rich! Hahahahah Kidding. Money or material things are never a good reason to be with anyone. There's too much else that is actually important than to waste time with someone just because they have money! Fun thread though! Hahahaha,...

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 9:18:09 AM | It comes down to a matter of personal preference. People choose partners for a MULTITUDE of reasons. The question itself is not my issue, but rather the assumption by a few in this forum that most women (rather than men) would marry for money. People from both sexes have the equal potential to do this.
My PERSONAL preference is that I can earn my OWN money and therefore, do not need to marry into money. End of the topic for me.
Take care all. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 9:27:08 AM | You don't love them, you don't even like them much, you don't even like the sex, and frankly you find them insufferable. But they are rich and can provide you with all the money and possesions you could want. They want to marry you, would you do it ? Be Honest !
only if he was in his late 80's and had a terrible cough!!
laffs.!!...Im KIDDING!!..so all you women hating men out there..dont get your gotchies in a knot!!..
seriously..I am not the marrying type so I doubt I would do it under any circumstances.
I would like to find a cute guy with an awsome pair of legs to play with a bit though!...does that make me a bad girl?? | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 11:34:09 AM | | Hell no! I have actually had the opportunity four different times in my life with four different men and the answers were all the same....no, no, no and NO! I wouldn't have sex with them either if I was not attracted to them and I would have to have at least a physical attraction to them before I would even consider that. Heck, with the exception of a blind date set up by my friend years ago, I have not even gone out on a date with someone unless I was at least physically attracted to them in the first place. I have had friends tell me that I should go out with someone because at least it's a free meal and I find that attitude abhorrent. I would not like someone to use me in that way and I refuse to treat others in that manner. I understand why men would think that all women are out for money but, just like all men are not alike, neither are all women alike. Don't tar us all with the same brush as some of the shallow, insensitive and superficial women that ARE out there. Besides, that man deserves to be loved for himself and not his money. If I were to marry a rich man and he wanted me to sign a pre-nup I would have no problem with it because I would NOT be marrying him for his money. The only reason I would marry someone is that I loved them so much that it would devastate me to live without them. | |

Posted: 6/11/2006 11:38:27 AM | | I would have to say no to marrying someone with money,my husband owned his own company made 4000.00 a week he was the worse sob known.When I recieved money after a accident I spent it on everyone else so he couldn't lol...Money isn't everything in life in fact it's not worth it...you can be more happier being and having nothing then having it all | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 3:17:16 PM | No! that's like saying just because they are tall.....just because they have blue eyes......just because________fill line with any ONE quality.
But the question reminded me of Marilyn Monroe's line in Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend..goes something like this - She was asked by her fiance's rich father if she was marrying his son for his money and she replied that it was like asking if a man would marry a woman because she was beautiful....."that's not why but goodness it helps!"
Just kidding people.....the answer is still NO. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 3:31:59 PM | | I think this statement goes both for men and women. Money never ever buys happiness. True happiness lies beneath your skin....it is in your mind and soul. Money is the root of all evil. I would much rather be dirt poor and have the love of my life at my side then have all the money in the world and a ***hole for a husband. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 4:42:37 PM | | "Money can't buy you love". The Beatles said that, and I firmly believe it. Now if they want to marry me, they'd have to give me another reason other than money to win me a relationship. Something else would have to be. At least an emotional bond that I can't break. | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 7:19:27 PM | | If we had an attraction and respect for each other...then yes. If I found him gross and disgusting.. hell no. If I was the one with the $$$ and we really were into each other.. hell yes... we'd be in a villa in Italy now...even with my mulla!! | |

| Would you marry someone just because they are rich ? Posted: 6/11/2006 9:53:27 PM | About the Millionaires Club, it says:
The Millionaires Club is the exclusive dating services where successful men meet exceptionally beautiful and intelligent women...........
Wow, when I am about to say if I am 40 years younger, I would be tempted to join the club and be on the wait list for a handsome, educated and successful men, then I realized at the same time I am not that type of material. Not that I don't see myself as beautiful or intelligent, but I don't have the needly classy and elegance to fit in the upscale life style. I adore Vivian Leigh in Gone with the Wind and Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady, but I cannot image myself live everyday under jewelry, fancy clothes, make ups, ladylike etiquette, ballrooms and meaningless smiles, it must be very tiresome.
For that I admire those who is not afraid to marry the rich, at least they have the skills I lack. I love to watch beautiful people especially when they are couples, (never miss an Oscar on TV), but to actually live in their world is another thing. Good luck to the Millionaires Club, may they all found each other. I think to find a person who loves your money is easy, but to find a person you think who is worthing your money is then difficult. | |
