I am sure that I wouldn't be able to marry for convenience, ever. How could I live with a person I was only "convenient" with? How could I lie in the same bed, with someone I was "convenioent" with? Let alone do it...

No, I wouldn't. There are a lot of comlications in doing this. Anyway, in Australia, they are trying to cut down on this.

im sorry i think i got you confused.
let me try a scenario:
let say you have a friend who needs to have a visa to stay in the u.s, he asked if you can marry him and divorce him after the visa has been issued, will you do it?

Definitely NO, because in the first place its not right to tie yourself to someone u have no feelings at all. It's like living in lies. Well, that's how I see it. But I have nothing against people who favors marriage for convenience sake. We all have our reasons and we should respect that. :)

That's not gonna be an option if im badly in need of life's convenience. Hehehehe.. you see I am a woman with a strong personality and with pride, and I live to my principle not to rely on men too much for my needs. :). We are not called women for nothing :)

NO for it. to start with, i don't like the thought of it. it makes one person too materialistic if all s/he wants is to have a better future. it is just too difficult to risk your life and future for it. if it is for i friend, i'd find some ways to help him/her but not to the point that i will sacrifice what i have now.
