What’s wrong with getting married for money? As long as your upfront about it and the other person is ok with it then what’s the problem?

I really want to get married. It’s my plan to marry someone who is rich and become a stay at home wife. I don’t have much going for me and it’s the only way I can think of to get rich and not work at Burger King forever.

    Because often that type of relationship is highly abusive and the power structure is horribly lopsided. Inherently there is nothing wrong with money being a priority in a relationship, but in my experience the people who set out with that goal often end up very unhappy because a relationship based on money becomes transactional in its every nature.

    The “good” partners wont be interested in a partner who is just there for money, so they wont be interested in you.

    You do you, but i dont know any happy gold diggers, or people with a sugar partner with the exception of a single couple, and in that case the husband had a high paying job but his wife’s income was 10x his so he was not working because they needed the money so they decided he should be a state at home parent. He sees his job as being eye candy for her, he takes care of all kid related things, cleans the house every day, and then spends 2-4hr a day at the gym so he is in peak physical form for her.
