Love - marry someone you fall in love with and keep working for the rest of your life or until you're at the age of retirement to make end meet or taking care of kids expenses.
Money - marry someone you aren't in love with but you'll be well taking care of for the rest of your life. Maybe not super rich but live comfortable life with no job or part time job if you like. Vacation once a year. Don't have to argue about money. Kids are well taken care of.
Love
This is so hard! I would probably go with love. I know it's cliche but throughout my whole life I've worked. I like working at my job even though it can get stressful and I don't get paid much. I like going the hard way. I guess I was born that way but with love and working I think I'd be fine. Money is nice, but it's not something I would rather have then love.
wealthy men don't marry a woman for her to sit home and without a job, they expect you to provide "something". Some times you have to come to the table with wealth also, or sex, or be the socialite at parties (you on his arm) or being a social person yourself and being at his side in business matters. Wealthy mean are tight.
With love comes compassion, working together brings closeness, but doesn't necessarily pay for the bills the kids run up if the kids aren't his. The kids dad is supposed to be paying child support for them. Most men don't like paying for someone else's kids.
I'm re-singled and married for convenience the first time and for love the other two times, none for wealth (yet) but I got tired of supporting the men (and that sometimes can happen too) and went broke.
I'd much rather have love. The money option seems terrible anyway. Even if money wasn't an issue, I'd still want a job. I want to contribute to humanity.
Love only
I think having a similar attitude towards money makes for a sounder relationship... just read all the posting on here of the savers fed up with their spendaholic spouses.
I'd choose love, every time.
Money, I have myself to love, I'm so great!)
I honestly believe that only internally damaged people would marry for money.
I married for love, and I
would do it all over again.
