Nowadays,most ladies are marrying money instead of men.This is so because the economic needs of women are increasing on a daily basis and they believe that before a relationship can be enjoyable,money must play a key role.

I don't think women marry for money,they always want to marry the men they love and also prefer the men who loves them.In my country, India men will marry for money(dowry).I know some marriages will end-up just because the girl's parents are unable to face the needs of boy's parents and the expenses they create during the wedding

Money is important but not everything .. emotions & love comes first ... money cannot buy inner happiness!!

It is not so balck/white here. There are greys too. I believe a rare woman can marry just for money - at least there should be something attractive for her in a man she is going to spend a life with. More often this is the fact itself, that a man can earn money and provide secure living that really matters. And it is not just money, it is the proof of ability to provide the family with decent living.

You have made a good point. Being a female I can understand why its like that. At the same time morally its completly wrong. It's amazing how they can live like that. I wouldnt be able to live life knowing that lie about myself. I couldnt get in a marrige with someone that I dont love.No matter how much money they have.

I don't think its right for a woman to marry just for money. In the long run, money won't buy her happiness. Being in a loveless marriage will take its toll over time. If a woman is really that desperate for money, she should make it herself and not have to depend on someone to make it for her.
