I would never marry for money, but I would remain single for money. People that would choose love in some respects I think border on co-dependency. They don't think they can be happy unless they have a man/women in their life. I don't need a woman to be happy. I am happier that I'm married to a great woman. But I could still be happy if I were single.
I would take the 'everyday is like the first day' in love over any amount of money in the world!
There is nothing like that feeling of being in love, especially the first few weeks. We have all been there when you can't STOP thinking about your new love! Your not thinking about how much money you have in the bank, your not thinking about nice cars or houses or going out to eat at fancy restaurants... your thinking about the person your in love with. You often forget to eat.. you don't worry about the RENT or your job or even your next meal. Your simply thinking about the next time you get to see your love! Nothing better than that and no amount of money can purchase it!
This. A million times this. I'm not wildly rich by any stretch, but we do pretty well and don't want for anything much. As the years have gone by, I've realized, stuff does not love you back. Stuff does not make you feel a lightning bolt when you touch the person you love or make your heart beat fast or slow. Things don't make you feel wanted and desired.

Beautifully said. When you have real love, you are the wealthiest person in the world. I've known some very poor people who have millions in the bank, they have a sad existence. They died never knowing love, they were bitter and unpleasant. So sad.
I don't care about money. I don't care about poverty. For me, not having money is not a problem. If I had to decide between these two awful choices, I'd choose love.
I have had deep love without money, and plenty of money without love, and I would definitely choose the former. It is a complete cliche, but money simply does not compensate for living without the pure joy of being in love and being loved back!
What do many if not most married couples fight over? Money.. in divorce court I have never heard of anyone fighting over knocking boots visits but I have heard of people going tooth and nail over assets. Not over access to some a___.
One constant about money is the more you have the more options available. Love is great but with money you buy love or at least rent it. Without money if you want love consider a dog but understand it takes money to feed a dog.
