Money isn't everything.

Of course, it's important as a necessity to live.
But as long as he have a jib that covers the bills, and he's responsible with his budget and doesn't have stupid debt, then I don't have any "demands" of money when it comes to dating.

I wouldn't want to date with someone for the sole purpose of money.

And the thought of dating someone much richer than me kind of makes me uncomfortable.
Will they use money to win every argument?
Will they use money to lock me into a life I won't enjoy?
Will they want to live a more expensive place together, either say we'll split it 50/50 so I won't have as much space in my budget for much else, or put it over my head, gifting me into doing much more labor at home?

Since I don't want to be a housewife, I don't see many benefits unless he would be willing to just share his wealth. And that would make me uncomfortable as well. And how would that be fair in the end?

So honestly, I don't see any good solutions of I were to date for money.
I'm not looking for someone to use financially.

Because it isn’t. Is money important? Yes, of course. But it is not the only thing that matters.
I have declined my 16k and 20k retention bonus because money isn’t everything. My boyfriend did as well. There are other things that matter more in life such as happiness, physical and mental health. We say money isn’t everything because it’s not. If it was everything every decision we made would disregard everything, but profit.

I have dated in my broke college days & it was still fun since we were all broke. Even today, I’m broke af compared to before and took about a year off without working because adjusting and resting was more important to me than having more money. It’s funny because as a teen/young adult I never really understood why my parents wouldn’t always chose the option that made more money and my parents would always tell me it wasn’t everything which I thought was BS, but as an adult I get it now.

no woman wants to be homeless let alone live in the wilds by herself

money is important and deep down she knows it but she always knows money attracts other women, women whom she may have to compete with and women are naturally against competition especially when the odds are against them

so when women say they don't care about money... that's BS

even strong, independent, rich women want a much richer man

they might bring up politically correct terms like "financially stable" which is still subjective at the end of the day

Because they know that money = power why do you think they divorce for it? Why do you think more women compares to less prefer not to sign prenuptial agreements? Why do you think women have more houses compared to men in the USA? Money is all majority of women care about they'll sell their own sacred bodies for it.

Money isn't everything for me because I dated a guy with money and he thought he was above me, better than me, wasn't empathetic of my situation. A man with money scares me to this point.

IslaTheWitch · Answer

because it isn't out of money, you have people, emotions, the whole world... money makes some things easier... but only some things, the rest needs your personal touch, not money

elaphe · Answer

They probably don't think money is everything. I would much prefer someone who sounded literate (e. g., not say things like "them delulu") and didn't have much money to a woman who was a millionaire but spoke "ghetto" or like a "hick."

My man didn't even have a job at one point. It isn't everything because if money is his only good quality, I am going to go in a depression real quick.

I stayed because, you guessed it, the personality!

It really isn't everything. I got with my husband way before he even had a job and we also had a baby together during that time. I never once cared that he didn't have money

Angelo75 · Answer

It's funny that many times people will say "money isn't everything". Yet if you ask them if they'll jump into a relationship with a homeless person, they'll go into "discussion mode". :-D

midnightmoon05 · Answer

Because they are lying 🤥 😂… money is very important to all… si you have to know what they say after to determine how they think as well as their behavior more importantly.

7 out of 10 it’s not this day and age women able to financially support themselves. We all know the history women could not have property in her name because she was looked at as it.  But anyway.

People who think money is everything lack any other redeeming value.
