In my experience, men and women who have been divorced a number of times are more attractive and charming than other people. That is how they were able to get so many people to fall in love with them. This man who is looking for his fifth wife is very friendly, handsome and charming.
OK smarty pants, What is the benefit of marriage excluding tax and estate benefits (which admittedly can be big) and raising kids (which doesn't seem to be the case here)?

Social Security benefits for the survivor of the deceased.
I think 3 would raise the flag for me for most circumstances. If you cant get it right after 3 tries there has to be some type of issue. I've got two under my belt so I don't think I need to try again.
What does love got to do with marriage? What is the benefit of marriage?
In my opinion, marriage is extremely important, if you want a long-term, committed relationship. It's far too easy to just walk out the door if you aren't married. I believe that people will actually work harder to address issues when they come up, in a marriage. Not a always true of course, but I think it applies in most cases. Divorce is complex and often painful....and no one gets married expecting to get divorced. We get married because we want to be together permanently....even though that isn't always the end result. Also, getting married sort of proclaims to the world that "Hey I love this person and I want to spend my life with them...so much that I am willing to put it down right here on paper!". That may not mean much to you, but it means an awful lot to many others.
Even though I personally have no desire to marry again, I am a huge believer in it, and if you want to have children, I think it's even more important.
