| would you marry for money?
Posted: 8/13/2009 12:53:01 AM | Had just that chance about six months after wife died. Story went: "I've got $5500 a month income, marry me and you can have halfers of everything. THEN: started talking "co-ownership". She'd just run her man off after 15yrs, collecting alimony.
Nope, I left and haven't looked back. Even though my income is maybe 30% of her's.
No way with that one.
Maybe the next one would change my mind though. Especially if she's decent looking and younger, hahaha! | |

I am leaving it behind now so I can go and hopefully find true love. Proof that money cannot buy you happiness. | |

Posted: 8/13/2009 3:47:04 AM | My prince is not going to show up because he has amnesia and his horse has foundered. My ship won't come in because the pilings under my pier have rotted and the ship was lost at sea plus I am too old to be arm candy and the man with that kind of money is either too old or already has a bimbette. Life is what it is. Give me a man who can paddle his side of the boat and I would be happy.  | |

Message: No, I wouldn't.
I would marry for love, chemistry, respect, values, and a good ability to manage life in all of it's different challenges.
Right, and I would love for principles above all, which is price less....
P.S.And if she had a nice butt for good measure! lol | |

Anybody seen Siren Bliss?
She knows what the standard is, from what I understand. | |

Posted: 8/13/2009 9:21:18 PM | | nope, not at all. money isn't important, it is needed but it isn't important. i would choose love over money any day. i would rather eat sardines with the man i love then prime rib with a man i didn't. | |

Posted: 8/15/2009 11:32:28 PM | No. I work hard for my money and I really don't want to share it with anyone.
Except maybe someone who could sit through the entire Lord of the Rings Trilogy and two bottles of great wine and proscuttio and anti-pasta.
Maybe someone who would go sunbathing naked, yet cover his privates with a hat and when I passed would tip his hat to me.....lol | |

Posted: 8/16/2009 10:53:19 AM | Money can't buy what I value.
The scenario is one choosing to be a bird in a cage
or not. Sadly, Princess Diana springs to mind.
The answer is no. | |

Posted: 8/16/2009 11:30:34 AM | | I wouldn't do it. I divorced my first husband because of the way he treated me, even though I knew he was going to be very successful someday. I was right - he is quite wealthy now - but if I had stayed with him I would have been a wealthy woman in a straitjacket, and I never would have met my second husband. Money is not everything. | |

Posted: 8/16/2009 9:08:46 PM | My last relationship was sort of like that--minus the contracts. She probably would have shared with me, she's a nice person. But no, I did not see myself doing that.
Things like that do require me to change some fundamental beliefs and I am not that type of person. Plus, I would feel like I didn't earn the wealth. It would always feel like that. I could take care of myself and make money so we parted ways... | |

Posted: 8/16/2009 10:25:30 PM | | I say what would I have to do to marry for money?? How would it change my life. Would I really be happier or just feel more controlled? Not too sure what I would do and it would depend on the person and personality...its a tough one. Misery and money I don't think I could do that. | |

Posted: 8/17/2009 4:13:57 AM | I have been in a long lasting commonlaw relationship in which we had a new car, a new pickup truck, a fishing boat, and a house that had been paid off in 5 years. We both had good jobs, as well as the stress that came with them, but would go on some pretty nice vacations once a year to get away from it all.
There were many reasons why that relationship ended, but our mutual friends thought I was nuts for leaving that comfortable life. What good were all those "comforts" when the love had disappeared?!
I would not marry for money. Without love that money, and all it may provide, become like a noose around one's neck, choking the life right out of you. They might tempt you to stay, but your happiness is what counts. | |

Posted: 8/17/2009 7:39:54 AM | no, never. Money doesnt make me happy just makes things a little easier. I believe not in materialistic things and I live a simple life without these. If money was the only reason for marriage i would run like hell for the hills. Sad, but these days of the recession i think alot of people would marry for money. | |

Posted: 8/17/2009 7:49:53 AM | I doubt it, I haven't done so sofar. I couldn't live with someone I didn't love and wasn't a roommate. It is bad enough living with a male roommate that I have no intentions to be with romatically.
I have had men quit their jobs or not have a job and want me to support them, NO. I need an equal partner emotionally, physically, and at least have a steady job at least making close to what I am making and above. I couldn't live with myself marrying a man I didn't love and only marrying him for money. What would you do when he asks for sex, refuse? I think men with money would be on the controlling side and I would be rebellious. | |

Posted: 8/21/2009 10:27:53 AM | | No. I make a good salary at my job, enough to buy the things I want: I have an apartment I like, get to travel each year, buy more books and DVDs than I have time to read/watch, etc. I wouldn't care about living in a mansion, or luxury travel, or eating in fancy restaurants every night, or things like that. The only thing I'd want that I can't afford is to be able to retire now. And marrying for money wouldn't really give me that, since then the marriage would be the job I do to get money. So marrying for money wouldn't get me anything I really want. | |
