Win the lottery but lose your partner?

Tweet

You often see fat old rich guys with younger attractive wives but you rarely see short fat, ugly rich women with tall younger and attractive men. Men are not that bothered about a woman's income but more into the body and looks where as women prefer older, educated and financially comfortable men. Only 5 % of all hetrosexual couples are the women taller than the guy. The rules are clear and more negatives than positives when pairing up these days. Now, somewhat interestingly, when married men win big on the lottery ( 7 figures...) they are more likely to stay in that relationship than married men that dont win the lottery do at the same point in longevity in their marriage. I was amazed at that stat, considering the above facts around money and you partners looks. You would think they would try and upgrade the misses with their new found wealth. When married women win big on the lottery it's a very different story, a much higher divorce rate within married couples. Two years after most marriages are done. It seems to be the case big lottery winners struggle to handle their new lives of leisure. You have more choices in life. Are women that superficial you may ask or do they simply prefer to come out of a 'take any guy relationship as you dont want to be lonely', and when they do win big then they dont need to keep suffering that, right? It's still the case that 25 of the top 30 women on the world's richest list are divorce enjoying inherited wealth.
