The advice the woman gave was a true reflection of how some women pick men, for status, lifestyle.

The woman who marries a man for what he can become is marrying a man for his potential income who can be controlled by her. If this man knew how awesome he would turn out then he probably would have stayed single longer.

My belief is that you marry the person for who they are, their morals, compatibility and because you want to love them and stand with them for life.

I can live happily with a man who has morals and is committed to me but doesn't make much money. Society would consider him a failure if he worked at a gas station.

But I can't live with a man who only provides material things and has no morals and is unfaithful.

I would rather have substance over flash.
