hey everyone, My lecture said that love is nothing without money. Money brings the love. What do you think guys? Is it necessary to have money first before looking our love? Is my lecture statement true? why?

No money = no love = wrong! If this is right, there are many people will die because they can't live without love.

I disagree. You can live just fine without love. Love doesn't pay the bills. You cant buy diapers with love. Food is bought with money not love.

While I believe that money is a necessity for survival I do not think that it is the sole reason for love to exist. I know some people who are able to be with the love of their lives although they do not really have money. And their relationship is doing great although they need to work extra hard to get by. But then as for me, I think I wouldn't settle to be in a relationship if me and my partner are not yet financially prepared. While I salute those people who can manage to make things work out, I think I could be more comfortable if we are financially stable.

If your lecturer was right I think poor people would all be single. If you do a follow up you will find that the rate of divorce in poor people is lower than that of rich people. This is because when a poor person falls in love it is purely love. Many women will fall in love with your money and not you. I totally disagree with your lecturer. Love is not materialistic in any way.

yes. this is possible. it's the reality of life. but this statement is usually followed with the exception that the love will not last. The amount of money of course is based on the needs of both people, but something monetary has to be there or the person has to display the potential to earn it. So although love can exist without money, in my opinion it would soon die out or simply be transferred to another person who can provide it.

You can love without money, only open-minded people can understand why you can love without money, that was sad when they said no money no love. Only those people who did not experience and appreciate the true meaning of love will said that. We cant blame your lecture everybody's can have opinion but if you can see the small things somehow you can figure it out. Love is everywhere. Love from the heart is priceless.

I think money has nothing to do with love. It helps with the relationship because you can't live on love alone but that's because the world demands that we have money to live. It's sad really because I wish it weren't so because not having enough money puts a strain on the relationship although some people are perfectly happy without much money.

I believe money is necessary for survival in the year 2012. I also believe it's important to be self reliant so we don't enter into a love relationship for financial reasons. I believe health is first and most important. Then our ability to provide for ourselves financially. After that we can enter into a significant other relationship to give and receive love. If people try to love first sometimes they drain their partner financially; not a healthy situation for the people involved.

hi atwilson. i disagree about it, more over money brings love. according to me, love must be separated with money. if your patner loves you because of money, so it is not the real love.
