if all you can dream about is the luxury wealth can bring, of course you will suffer with a poor man, thinking about the huge opportunity costs. the kinds of suffering in a marriage is so diverse it cannot only be attributed to being poor. what if a rich man abuses his wife and controls her freedom? is that wife more fortunate that a woman who marries a poor man who respects her?obviously not...

This is addressed to whimsicalnut.

When you marry for money, physically you will be so well-off. This is the fact that no one can deny.

But emotionally, you are not much different from been a dead person. I say this from personal experience. Your very existence is painful to yourself because, as mentioned, who says a rich family does not have problems? In fact, a rich family has more unsolvable problems than you may realise.
