It's a good read if you can find a copy. It was written in the 80s but most of it still applies to today. Also, I think she was in her 40s when she married her Texas millionaire husband. I also agree with Goodmusic. Money isn't the end all, be all, and it certainly doesn't buy happiness. You can marry a billionaire who cheats constantly and treats you like crap. Will you be happy? But I also say that there is NOTHING wrong with a woman wanting to be with a man who has means. As long as men are superficial (i.e. placing youth and beauty over personality and character) then women get to be superficial too.

Granted, I can take care of myself, but my future husband should be able to give me more than I already have. Otherwise what\'s the point? I can be sad and broke by my damn self. At the same time, I want to be attracted to my partner and be in love with him. I want love AND money. I want it all! There’s nothing wrong with wanting a partner that can provide financial security.

Because these same women who marry a man for his money will end up cheating on him after a few years for someone who they really like. Money doesn't equal happiness.

Listen most arguments in a marriage are due to financial reasons. Once that equation is null then what's left?? So.... I agree that you can fall in love w/ a rich man as easy as a poor man. If your attracted to the rich man??? Even better. No judgements b/c I don't have to wake up and sleep with your choice. You do.

These people are young and with kids. I wonder what were these women thinking marrying these losers. A man is supposed to make your life easier or enhance, if he cant do neither I rather not. That's real. I’m a lawyer for one of those social services organization and I cannot tell you how sad it is to see women and THEIR men–able bodied and sound minded men–walk in asking for handouts.

Big blue eyes or a big *ick cannot pay the bills.

There are many cultures who marry for many things besides love and are happy, love is not something u catch, u can grow into it. I always believed “romance and love” is all frills, no substance.
