I'm an honorary card carrying member of the Minds of Men thanks to years of working at barbershops, gyms, and having more male friends than I can count. Yes, I'm really single. And no, I'm not ugly.

Don’t Marry For Love, Marry For Money

By Single Girl July 29, 2009 11:30 am

If people marry for love and 50% of them end up divorced perhaps we should start marrying for other reasons. I, for one, am leaning very close to marrying for money.

I recall a cool dude who told me that he wouldn’t mind if a woman was interested in him for his money and all that he could provide.

“Doesn’t bother me one bit. In fact if you are around me and you don’t want anything to do with my lifestyle I’m thinking something is wrong with you.”

“Really, so you could marry a gold digger?”

“Sure, as long as she is giving me what I want in return.”

“Like what?”

“Sex and lots of it, keep a clean house, raise kids well.”

“You won’t feel used?”

“Hell no, look I’m a man. I know what my role is and what women want. Most men who work hard do so, so that they can meet women.”

Ladies, men see right through “I don’t want you for your house, car, cash…I love you for who you are.” You might as well spit in their face for you have just insulted their ego. I don’t know why women tell this lie, mostly to themselves, as a way to prove they aren’t shallow.

Well damn it, I’m shallow!…READ THE REST HERE!

Can’t get enough of the SG stuff?

    Every woman wants to be taken care of but not always by money.. sure it helps but if you dont have the love there why stay?? Money isn’t always going to be there if you don’t have a love foundation what else is there?? Not much in my book!!

    lmao im nt sure bout marrying just for money but me personally i do feel like the way i was brought up and my career path…these two things are going to help me eliminate some good men and bad men out here i mean its not right but at the same time my father when I was growing up was always there and ALWAYS supported me. That man loves his kids and his wife and he took care and protected us. I’d say 80% of money coming in and spent on us was my daddy’s and since I’m about to become a neurosurgeon….I feel like it’s going to b hard to find a man with all the “credentials”. I mean if I fall in love with a man with less money I feel like thats not going to work because money is a part of a relationship whether major or minor and if I’m making the most (900,000) or the least (400,000) a year for that matter i just dont see how its going to work wit a man who makes 50,000 or 100,000

    Actually, there is a way women can have their cake and eat it too…my grandmother used to say, “Never look for someone you love…find someone who loves YOU.” In simple terms, stop looking for what YOU want and think about accpeting something thats good FOR you (and if it helps, think about the hundreds of others things you do that you don’t like). ;)

    THIS is EXACTLY why BLACK PEOPLE NEVER GET ANYWHERE!!! no morals or anything! FIRST of all, marriage is something sanctified by GOD..its about LOVE, COMMITMENT, and FAITH. SO if ur about money, then get a boyfriend and screw his dumb ass over. No wonder other races have a lower divorce rate than us black people. ALSO, whats gonna happen if homeboy lose his big paying job? – both of yall stressed screwed after that! AND the biggest thing women dont think about is this…YES we men know its money cars clothes etc, that attracts women, but most of these same men use that to get MULTIPLE women, so in turn, women are treated badly, disrespected, BEATEN and the rate of STD and AIDS are greatly increased. BLACK PEOPLE PLEASE STOP LOOKING FOR THE EASY WAY OUT!!!

    I Agree, I’ve been married for 12 and 1/2 years and money plays a big role in our relationship. I married for love and when your spouse or man do not have the money needed to Help pay bills, it becomes very STRESSFUL.
    A Woman Likes To Feel Comfortable…with her surroundings. Men tend to get Golddigging and Stability Mixed Up. We Want a man thats Financially Stable, so we dont have to worry about if we can pay a bill, BE HOMELESS or help me look nice for You.
    Men Like the Physical Aspect of a woman, he’s attracted to her beauty and body. In the end we will be happy, because both of us Are Getting What We Are Attracted To.

    see, dats dat bulls**t right there! whoeva actually wrote this needs a serious reality check. this is dat form of male bashing s**t i dont like, and dat got our black women, if from a young age, thinking that the word “man” means money. when in fact we need to be teaching our women, really all women to be independent and take care of their own. but yall wonder y we go to whit women…..

    Well that is pretty dumb considering most people who marry for money marriages do not last any longer then those who married for love. For the comment about women not looking to take care of a man. Most of black women these days are full of themselves,and most of us real men are not looking for a woman to “take care of them.” I believe in working hard to together to establish something,I’m currently a full time student and lord bless I can pursue a career in law,music being my first love lord bless I can tie them both together and make my mark in this world. Now with that being said if a woman is not interested in me for me as a person then she can’t be interested in me for my money. The way I see it I will have to work my ass off to obtain my goals in life,and I’ll be damned if I give away half of what I have worked so hard for to my ex-wife if things don’t work out. That is crazy,if I want to give money away like that I can just donate to charity,at least I can write that off on my taxes. I’m not looking for a extra dependent,unless you allowing me to claim you on my taxes. Trust if that becomes the situation you will be signing a prenuptial,and I will also require her to sign a legally binding contract stating you will leave out of this marriage with what you came in with. Money can’t buy you love,it can only rent you some pu$$y.

    Well, I can kinda see where this fits. Majority of men feel the need to pamper women anyway. The wanting to be needed for something. Not saying that’s right to just go after someone because of what they have. To perfectly honest No Woman in her right mind wants a broke man; some one she has to take care of. I definitely don’t need a another child!!! BEING THE PERSON THAT I AM, I DEPEND ON NOBODY BUT ME………REAL TALK!!!
