Can you marry somebody because he/she is very rich?

I had the opportunity to marry for money and am so glad I passed it up. People who do that earn every penny the hard way! I can't imagine money ever being so important to me that I'd agree to spend the rest of my life with someone I don't love! It's hard enough to stay together when you DO love the person you marry.

Hmmm let me think about it? lol ;) for me i would still marry someone i love, if he's rich then im lucky enough that the man i love is also a rich guy..... It's important that the guy has enough money but its not the money that only matter because money can't buy happiness.....

well,if it happens that that guy i want to marry happens to have some money,why not?when two people married,if one is much more richer than another,then,maybe,some people will think that one of them are married to another for money.but i think this is not always true. if a girl marry for money but not love,then i am sure she will not get happiness,money can buy objects,but never happiness.marriage without love is terrible,i don't know if two can create feelings on each other after marriage,but i've seen so many divorces,i don't think marry a rich man you don't love is a wise choice.

What i would do is marry the girl and get the money and then i would divorce that girl and then marry any other girl whom i love. :)) Just kidding. We cannot do that just for money. I personally feel that if wife is richer than husband, then the husband wont get the respect because obviously he is not that rich. This would create a lot of tension between the couples and that would not be nice for them eventually. If we marry them for money it will mean that we have been sold for money which we obviously wont like...

hi, stdrest. I don't mind marrying a rich guy, but we should fall in love. I'll marry him if we love each other. Having a lot of money is a kind of exciting things too! So, I care more about his character and his behaviore, as to the money he has, the more the better.

I dont think so, married is sacred to me. I only want to marry once. Cause being with somebody that I love has a higher priority than being rich. I set my life with priorities, the first is my loved one and my families, i mean my families is also my loved ones but in another category, follow by my friends, then my career then money..

Well, A good question. Money will try it's best to bring happiness. But Marrying a rich person may or may not bring happiness. It all depends on the person who percieves happiness.

Money could bring you happiness , but could bring sadness.. could u imagine if u marry but you don't have any money ? your life will broke.. how could u make your son, wife happy ?but if you marry with rich woman but for her money, you sell your freedom to your wife....right ?

ammm, if it is their last resort then why not maybe they had a reason for that and marrying to a rich person is not easy and if you have a soft heart then its not hard to love to others..

I will marry with two kind of people. The one who I love and the one who love me. If the rich woman really love me,marrying her is considerable.

if the guy i love who happens to be a rich man ,how can i pass up? right? but if i don't love the person ,i think i will definitly refuse the temption which doesn't belong to me. i come to the world just want to enjoy it ,so how can i marry this guy to torture myself? am i reasonable,my friend?

for me, i dont need that my husband to be rich, what is the most important is that you loved each other, than you lived normally life.That he is responsible for me, that we eat 3 times a day, and we buy what we need in daily life.And we lived happy.Because money cannot buy happines.MOney can buy all, but not happines and love.

NO i could never had done it because im not after money but after the person and if she is rich thats just a pluss.

Money aren't every in the life! I don't married with a man alone rich! The rich man are conceiteds. if i get married, I will do it for other reasons and if it will be there of the true feeling.

i think it is good, because of every person has their own dream, if the person is poor then why not he/she not marry with rich person, many rich men/women also marry with poor men/women, so is it bad thing ? i dont think so.. it is depend on necessary...., enjoy the life with ups and down.

People marry for all different reasons. I would NEVER marry for money. I grew up in a wealthy family, and it was miserable. Now I am in love with an average man, neither one of us are extremely wealthy, but we make ends meet, and we are happy.

Riches should not be taken as the basis of marriage at any cost. If taken, then it will certainly create imbalance in relationships between the two families with which the marriage tie up is established. Always the basis of marriage must be taken as the level of understanding between the two families as well as the desire to maintain long term relationship. We know that riches are the root cause of many misunderstandings among people. So not only marriage, if any other type of relationship or frindship is intended on the basis / target of riches, then certainly the outcome of relationship will be disasterous after a period and this has been observed in many cases. Thanks.

Financial freedom is really an important factor after marriage,specially once you have kids.Even kids are not a problem,financial freedom is important.I believe mostly peoples look for the proposals who are financially establish and well off.But I do not believe on this theory that the financial status of anyone should stand in between anyone's wedding.The reason is,No one is guaranteed that the one who is rich at the time of wedding will remain rich whole through his life or whoever is poor will remain poor through his life,time changes so as peoples conditions,For me,financial status is not a big factor in marrying someone.Money can buy everything,but cannot buy you happiness.As my personal experience,the people who are rich never have mental ease,they are never happy,cause they always want more,they are out of limits,and therefore their lives are not in balance.Excess of everything harm you it never helps you.I believe one should have enough money to get married thorough which he can feed his family well and save some little amount for future.

i will never marry a person cos he is rich,his money can't give me money,if he loves me then i would marry him,if not no,i believe money comes through luck,if there is no love then there is no life,life is like a machine with out love,u have to live so u live,

Love doesn't involve money and money is not a measure of happiness either. Most rich a$$e$ aren't polite either. So, there's no point in marrying a rich person. I'd be happy with anyone who could love me truly and deeply from their hearts instead of their pockets.
