If you had to choose between love and no money or love and no money, which would you choose and why?

I'd choose love and no money. Money comes and goes and can't buy the important things in life. With love, anything is possible and life is beautiful. Money can't make bad times better but love can make them bearable and make happy times even better.

Money can't buy you happiness but it can give you joy. I would choose love without money. here in our country most women try to choose money without love because their priority is their family, their loved ones. It kinda make me sad because they sacrifice everything for their family.

You mean you choose money over love? That's not sacrificing for family, that's sacrificing the family! The children won't know what a loving relationship is and their values will be on money, not people.
I know people who have sacrificed for their childrens' education but they loved each other. I guess I don't understand your culture. Can you explain some more?

Maybe it's an old question or discussion.
But during money can make you happy then love, you must choose it first. Because you can get love when you get the money. ;)

love because I have been poor all my life, and so I know what it is like, but being poor with the one you love you have support for each other in bad times,
but being rich or well to do and your husband does not support you, you have nothing but a miserable life, sure you have everything material, but a jaguar does not hold you when you are crying, and a chandelier does not say I love you, and trip to france or where ever does not say I support you especially if you have to do those things alone,
you need emotionally love material things are just objects they cannot do that for you

i'd chose love with no money coz for me you can always find ways to earn and still be happy with your decision than to have money but no love at all.
some people think that once you becomes poor you will realize you'd rather have money than love at all coz without money you cant be truly happy. sounds true to some but not to me.
i have spoke to some who thinks love with no money is only good for a period of time and once you guys are having tough financial problems then that's the time that problems arises coz of financial stress that comes along been through such situation and i can tell it is very hard and you need to have better understanding and great love to your partner to deal with such test coz if your relationship is that shallow i dont think it will survive through time.
anyway, we always have our own reasons for picking between the two and im sure for those who pick whatever they want they have the best reason beyond our control and imagination.

This is my 500th discussion -- a truly monumental experience and I get the best of both worlds: love AND money woo-hoo!
I think you meant to say money and no love or love and no money.
I'd choose love and no money based on the idea that money can be gotten -- maybe not a lot, but enough to survive on. Love isn't as easy to come by.
