I'm a simple man who doesn't need a lot of money to be happy, but I need compatible morals, values, and life goals to be in a relationship. My girlfriend isn't rich but she makes decent money, but what she makes doesn't matter. What does matter is that she doesn't try to live above her means (or mine) in order to get clout. She is like me - simple tastes and would much rather spend money on a trip to see nature than on an expensive handbag or shoes.

That said, most people who have grown up with lots of money don't have a scarcity mindset about money and don't seek clout or attention that way - there are exceptions, of course. But they also think nothing of jumping on a plane to Japan to go skiing or to Croatia to go bicycling, and if you don't have the money or the kind of job where you can just leave for a week on a whim, it makes a relationship very difficult.

I once could have dated a girl who was EXTREMELY wealthy, though I had no idea when I got to know her and not even for a year later. But I quickly figured out that I could never hope to keep up with her financially, and that her family would NEVER accept me. Her monthly investment gains are more then I will make in my lifetime by a large margin. She didn't work a job so she could do whatever she wanted and go wherever she wanted, and did. She was very productive and not at all lazy, but she had a lifestyle that few could ever imagine. But if you weren't in the club, you had no future in it.

It would be nice but no I would only marry a girl for love , not her paycheck , people that marry for money aren’t in love with that person they just like what they can receive from that person , especially if money is their top priority. I am perfectly capable of supporting myself and I want a partner that does the same , that wants to be my partner not a user. If I date a girl that constantly puts her hand out to me for money , I won’t date her anymore period

There's no guarantee that the person will stay with you.  I prefer to work and keep a busy life.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with going for the money and the associations that come with it , it will not be absolutely stress free but life is far easier with money , and more " well structured " professional and business type people , it's simply not true that so called " fantasy love " is somehow better it never is.

But neither it a case of " do nothing " you have a plethora of things you'd need to do and be involved in., people of a certain ecconomic level , are extremely interesting people.

Always look towards sustainable money , ecconomic outcomes , it's not a movie.

Oh shit thats easy. Of course I would if I loved the woman. But only then, and I'd probably still turn wrenches because fixing and building cars and trucks is what I do, and not doing it would stress me out. I would just be doing it in a much nicer shop.;-)

Purpleronnie · Answer

I will likely never marry , money would not even factor as the least of my reasons anyways.

I work as hard as I need to putting the hours in where necessary and then taking them back when I can and earn a comfortable living where I don’t worry about bills and have very little stress

If I had to chose between those two extremes, obviously the first one. However, I wouldn't ever want my partner feeling like I was a leech, and I should being working just as much if she is. I feel like a marriage will be more successful if we are partners as opposed to dependents.

Mo money, mo problems. I think I would prefer a middle ground of working as hard as I can to become wealthy enough to retire early.

Work hard until I die. The only reason I will marry one day is for love.

Nothing in life is entirely free. Anyone who marries will have some expectations of their spouse.

LiamJHayden · Answer

I won't say I was born into money, but I do feel like I started out on third base. So in my case, neither.

Marry money for no stress? I don't think you've ever been married if you think there really is such a thing.😆
