I've always wondered why a very wealthy person who has been married before, has grown kids and over 50 years old would remarry ?
You hear so many horror stories, It seems if you needed a pre-Nup agreement to protect your assets why not just date ? A person in this position would never be wanting of companionship, places to go or things to do.
They marry someone with more money than they have. They don't care as much about money-money is a given they want companionship and an escort that is socially acceptable.

Have you asked the wealthy people that do so?
I'm sure they have a variety of reasons...some good, some not so good. For some, I think it simply a reflection of one or both partners having more old fashioned values...which I don't think is bad.
In one situation I know, a guy had a wedding with all the trimmings, bide wore a white dress etc. To a lot of people the wedding seemed to be a "show" for the benefit of his ex-wife. That would qualify as the wrong reason to marry.

Why wouldn't they remarry? The wealthy tend to (re-)marry within their own socio-economic level, so pre-nups are rarely necessary.
I suspect it is because it is fairly easy for such a person to get a trophy bride and then replace her when she loses her luster. A vivacious wife is an important asset in the business world. I don't think anyone feels too sad about the trophy wives who get replaced; not even the rejected former trophy brides who stand to be compensated handsomely for their "humiliation" a la Ivana Trump and Marla Maples.

I'll see you that and raise you this - why would a wealthy guy, in particular, ever get married in the first place?!
Maybe rich people want to marry because they want to find true love.
Sadly, more money = more problems is somewhat true.
People get all paranoid (sometimes very rightfully so) which jeopardizes their chances of finding someone genuine.
Complicated. I think the bigger question is how to weed out those whom are sincere verses those who are after rich people for one thing.
The biggest clue I can think of is how a person treats others (even those who hold low status jobs or positions in society), and people, in general. They'll mostly treat their partners the same. But people are so wound up in their own personal conflicts they can't even see the underlying issues to their own demise? Just a guess.
Why shouldn't they? I have never understood why people question the rich or wealthy for being married. They are human beings and want to be loved too. Even if it involves a pre-nuptial agreement (which I fully support rich or not), doesn't mean they shouldn't have that type of committment
When Jackie Kennedy married Aristotle Onassis, do you think either of them was worried about their money? That's the way it works. For the most part, those types move in their own circles, so the money issue doesn't come up.
