Marrying someone for Money, will you do it?

That was certainly a big gamble for the man. But I think he wanted to show the family that he indeed deserves it and made good on the money they gave him. I think the man not only loved the money but his family since I never read in your post that they separated or the man was tempted or was not happy in the relationship. I think maybe the reason why he married the woman was for the money but it certainly looks like he did not stray away in the marriage which is also an important factor in the family. Well if I am into that situation I might be tempted as well that is if I am not involved or committed with someone at the time it was offered. Why not if you can commit to the relationship I think there is nothing wrong with it.

Im a guy. And I would never marry a girl for her money. Love over money. Im the kind of guy who looks for the personality in a girl. beauty catches attention, personality captures the heart. money comes, money goes.

yes i would marry an unattractive woman for money. seems a fairly simple thing to do. that's just me though, no morals whatsoever. what matters is the moneeeeeyyyyy!!!

I don't get it. When you say everyone "know" that he marry the woman for her family's money... How do they "know" it? Is it from the guy's mouth or are they just speculating it? I am not saying the money isn't the reason behind the marriage but why can't it be just part of the reasons? Why can't we just believe that the man, really handsome, loves this woman, who is not attractive? Do we really need to put a ring around love that the handsome guys can only love the attractive woman and vice versa without exception? I believe people are in general with good hearts and that there aren't that many people who sell their marriage for money and money alone. I think I would marry a woman regardless of her family background. Or is it making more sense that I let go the girl I love because she is rich and I am poor?

Maybe there's more to the story than just that but to answer your question, I don't think I would marry someone for just their money. But you never know though, maybe there will come a time where I really need money and stuff but I want my wedding to be special and romantic so I don't really know.

I'm not a guy, but I really couldn't see myself marrying for money. I already know what it's like to live an unhappy life and I don't think forcing myself into a marriage with someone I don't care for would be worth all the money in the world.

I may marry a person if they have a lot of money. If it's between a person I love and a person I don't love who has a lot of money, I will choose the person I love. But I may not have such a person. I believe love can grow out of our effort. If a rich person is in love with me and I don't love another, I may try to grow our love by showing care and understanding. If I find no way to love such a person then I wouldn't marry the,

I will not marry anyone just because of money. I would only marry a person because I love him. If money is the reason for marrying, surely the ending will not be at all happy. Yes you have the money but money is not everything in this world. I just hope they remain together and hopefully this man remains faithful to the woman because chances are he would later look for a woman he really loves and have elicit affair at the back of his legal wife.

i think it has something to do with family ties and traditions. i can answer because the family that i belong to does not oblige any to marry because of family traditions. i believe the guy married the woman because he knows it does not contradict anything in his family traditions. if i belong in that family, i may have probably followed.

It happens in India all the time. They marry, then if the guy is not satisfied, he does not divorce. Instead, he looks for a mistress, and keeps the matter hidden from his wife. To the world, we Indians have a very long lasting marriages. But inside it is like the termite has eaten away. Many marriages are just a sham. We are no different from the rest of the world. It is only the dowry that is the monetary obligation that holds us together.

i can't say if the guy right or not.i think this situation happens everywhere in the world!it all depends on the person.if someone want to success,he must grasp the chance and marry a wealthy woman,that's a best way

Ya know I believe many can eventually fall in love but I really could not do it. I am def. a hopeless romantic and I've learned that I cannot settle for less for many thing's such as looks, age etc. If someone I'm just not interested in and was interested in me and had a lot of money I still could not do it. It's wrong and in vain. So I believe everything obtained from this would also be invain and easily taken from you as easily as it came to you. More power to those that can though. To each his own. :]

I'm not a guy, and don't know if I could think like one but.... I could never marry for money. My aunt did that I don't think she's ever been truly happy even the money doesn't make you happy if love's not their. I don't think it's a smart idea at all! I think that if someone gives you something you are not as proud as if you earn it and you don't have the motivation to do your best unless you do it yourself!

No not ofcourse...it will make our life like a hell.......

I don't know how to comment on this thing. After all, everyone has the right to choose a way to live. And I can undestand that people don't want to live a hard life. I don't want, too. I just think that love should be the base of marriage. Wish everyone could have a happy life~

Hello chiyosan, Certainly i would like to marry a girl not money and have done this already as i am married and i never thought of if my wife's family is rich or not. And perhaps people should not consider money a factor while marrying a girl they only should see if girl is good or not? Will she be able to fit in your family?.And many other things which must be seen than money.

Well hope the guy is being faithful to his wife despite of that situation. Me that depends really, for practicality maybe yes maybe not. But still whats important to me is that hope the guy knows how to care then.

If I were the guy I would not marry a woman whom I don't love, it's not about being attracted with her only. But If someone decides to marry someone for money, sometimes along the way you will learn to love that person too especially if they have children already. Sometimes some people will have this remark even after a long time but who knows the guy had eventually love the girl after some years they got married. That's what I hate sometimes about people they tend to be judgmental and always thinks things will be forever that way.

Nowadays, I don't think every murmur of your neighbors or other person is important. Be practical.... That's the line.... Salute to the man who does that because he has the got to do that kind of risk... It only means that he already learn to love the person, not because of her money but maybe because of her good traits.. Before I dont believe in terms that a person can teach his/her heart who's going to love or not. But now, I do believe that as long as your good to your fellows and your not harming anybody, who cares what you do and who you love. I can say that I can marry a person for money, because I want a good future.

With the world in deep crisis as it is now, i think this situation calls for drastic measures. I think I would marry for money. Of course, I have to learn to love my spouse eventually. I'll make sure that my spouse is happy with me. Call it a partnership between two persons, not love. Well, at least initially you would have to get along with this spouse of yours. As i see it, the man did quite well for himself. His intentions were not all that evil, he did it for himself and he did well as a husband, father and businessman based on his success on the business and fathering now professional children. I would marry if I don't have any other choice. ASAP, i want to avoid that. I would rather marry someone i love and i'll make sure he is hardworking and able to provide the needs of a family. I'll work hard also.
