I just read an article about women who marry very rich men --just for his money. How do you feel about this? Would you marry for money? Or would you only marry for love?

I would not definitely marry just for money... I can earn it by hardwork. I will only marry the person that i love. I will not waste my life to a person whom i do not care about, it would be the most terrible thing that will be happening to me...

I agree. Anyone can make money. It may take some time, hardwork and know how but money can be made. I would not want to spend the rest of my life with someone that I did not love. Just as money can be made, it can be destroyed. What happens if the money disappears?

Money is not every thing, but love isn't too. The happiness of lives is need money in the world.So don't marry just for money, but just for love is not wise too.

I would only marry a person whom I love most. I seek a balance between choosing a mate. Considering the financial crisis that are undergoing in today society. In order to survive, one must be financially and emotionally stable. Some marry to live a a comfortable and luxurious life. And, if they are access to it and you also like this person. Then ,just go on and marry a rich man or woman. Everyone needs some love and it will be good to share it to someone you love. Its a good feeling to wake up when you are older with someone you love. If you are going to look up with your past. You will feel no regrets and remorse that you live with according to you choice and not to live with the dictate of other people.

I will marry for love not for money. Its not easy to go away if the things are legal already. I will see to it that I love the person to be married of inspite of not wealthy. Money can be seen and work it out but love cannot be bought.

Definitely not because marriage is more than just money. It's a vow that you have to keep for the rest of your life.. Just imagine yourself being with a person you don't really love.. can you take it? For practical reasons others marry for money, but the relationship won't be that stable to manage long years together.. The vow says "for richness or poverty" so as long as there is TRUE LOVE you'll surpass the tides that would come by. Well maybe as long as he has a stable job, a sense of dignity, decent work; I'm contented with it. =D

No, I would not marry just for money. There needs to be love in a marriage in order for me to be happy, money just doesn't cut it!

My husband and I were married many ears ago, because we're madly in love. How wonderful it would be if we also had a bundle of money. Given the option, I'd marry hi again in a heartbeat, no matter whether we ever have money. It's illegal to sell oneself!

hi there. i think your discussion is only for female, but i am a male, can i response? well, if a girl comes to my life only for my money then i never treat her as my partnar. i never share my feelings with her. and one day she will regret for her intention. i shall give her that chance. i had no job 5 years ago. at that time i was chasing true love and was neglected. but now i have sufficiant money and too much proposal of love. love chases money or money chases love? a big riddle.
