And that's the Gods honest truth!!!!

I agree with "ThatScaryChick"!

And, money isn't everything? I could not do it myself. Personally it would not be worth the false effort.

I wouldn't.     I wouldn't be happy  marrying for money.

I have married a winner however,  he is my soulmate and that makes both of us a winner.

No way!  I may not be wealthy, but I basically do what I want when I want and "get by fine" in my retirement.  At this age I'm likely too set in my ways to marry anyone again, let alone someone who would likely think he should have most of the say since he has most of the money. 

Go back up to my post, you overlooked this:

Yes, but not for that reason alone. I have to have an emotional attraction to them.

I chose yes, but it is more like a maybe.

I am pretty open minded.

If they were a good person, and I liked being around them, but did not have the physical thing going, I might not marry them normally. With lots of lottery money the freedom to do what you want and enjoy your time might make up for less sparks in the bedroom. Also, in your scenario, the person is totally into you, which is also a huge plus. Having someone that is dedicated and loyal to you would be some pretty positive stuff, unless they were psycho about it.

Looks really are not everything to me. They are a definate plus if a girl has them, but if she has a great personality, it is usally enough to make up for any physical problems.

If they had a nasty personality, I would not want to hang out with them past 1-2 dates, so definately a no.

Basically, the money would push a borderline situation into a yes.

No, I know what I would expect from someone if I was a jackpot winner that permitted them to marry me and there is no way I would ever put myself in a similar position.   But then I'm not the type of person that seek the company of people with lots of money and I don't have much respect for those who do.

I forgot to answer my own question. In all honesty I would at least give it a try. Why not make it so my life is  alot easier. I wouldn't have to worry about high gas prices and our messed up economy. I think most people would love to live without the worries of any financial burdens. Would I feel proud that I'm kinda freeloading no but I would make the best out of the situation. I wouldnt care what others thought of me either.

i can give it a try............been poor to long
