I have to make a decision.Is money more important than a person?

Question

togetherness is more important than money in relationship?

Answer 1

that's the goal, -but many sell there birthright for porriage

PS.. for crying out loud, do we answer 'YES' to the first question or the 2nd question??

Answer 2

Money doesnt make the man, but the lack of it can be a problem for the man. It is not more important than a person no but the misuse of money is the root of all evil. Personally money does not control me, I control it, so it has never been an issue to me. I will not forsake people close to me for money, because then it controls me instead of me controlling it. Its not nice to be without money either, so you have to find the balance! BE wise, invest and dont squander or make debts or live on credit either. IF you have no money dont spend what you dont have. Get the money together by saving and get it that way. Stay out of debt. One still can in this world. Learn to be wise and learn from old mistakes.

GOod luck to you.

While some marry for money, many just want stability - that includes economic stability with someone who can hold down a job and earn a decent living. Then we get into the realm of, what is a decent living? For most, it's being able to put a roof over their head, food on the table, clothes on their back, pay for/maintain a car etc. Just remember though, there are, no guarantees. ANY ONE can lose there job, bad economy or good. My husband lost two jobs in our married life - I lost two jobs. We sweated for 6 months one time and went through our savings. It was tough, but then again, we were in love and supported one another to no end...it seemed that - that love is what got us through, and we both wound up taking paycuts for other jobs, but, we survived, and pretty happily. The real crux of your question may have more to do with having an established WORK ETHIC than anything else. Because if you have that? You stop at nothing until you find a job to help your mate and the two of you survive...you "get" and understand, that it is your mate you love, not your job (and frankly? -That's the better choice always, of the two...) I never made as much as my husband, but I assumed a fair share of fiscal responsibility in our marriage, which actually, I was quite proud of and I know he was as well. I didn't finish my degree until later...He had his when we married. People who love and respect one another to begin with? Usually work these things out and establish the groundwork from the get-go.

Answer 4

Obviously the situation leading to you asking this question is far more complex than the question itself, but I have to say, that simply from reading the way you asked the question, it sounds like you have made your decision already.

Of course money is not more important than a person (who you love / care about etc) and of course togetherness is more important than money generally as a principle.

I've got to say, I'd would have found answering this question much easier if more information was provided, but then that is hardly the point because the fact that you haven't provided additional information and the fact that you have framed your question in the way that you did, surely must give you some assurance that yes, you are right to give more value to the person rather than the money in whatever circumstance you find yourself in.

Good luck and trust in yourself!

Answer 5

Togetherness should be more important than money; if it is not you (or the person you a with) is not in the right relationship.

Answer 6

Both are important, money is important because it pays your bills, and buys things that you want, it is a totally different thing, and should not be compared with a person, Money is something you need to take care of, if you feel the person is going to take care of all your needs then you are makeing a big mistake,
Person is important because we all need good people in every form, as neighbors, as friends, as coworkers, as wife, as husband, and as good brothers and sisters, because life an be stressful if we are not surrounded with good people,

Answer 7

Person is more important. Look at the fate of Princess Diana. She was a princess but was not happy.

Money is also important becoz you need it to satisfy your basic needs. Nobody is going to love a pauper for long. Many problems can be solved by money but not all of them. That does not mean money is unimportant.

The best thing is to have both.

Answer 8

You know people shouldn't focus on money when it comes to love but unfortunately you have alot of people who enjoy and require an expensive taste for things in life and that's where the problem comes in to them that romance without finance is a nuisance. So it all depends on the person but money shouldn't be more important than love to me.

Answer 9

Yes love and romance is a lot more important than money in any relationship. You can buy a woman/ man for personal services but you can not buy warmth and love. I would choose love over money any day !! Happy New Year !!

Answer 10

Money is the most common thing people argue about, to be sure. If the relationship is true, money won't matter. Together, a well balanced relationships will work regardless of finances.

Answer 11

Love and togetherness is ALWAYS more important than money. Especially with kids in the picture. What good is sending them to college if you weren't there to raise them to be resposible, productive adults? I've always told my husband, I don't care if we live in a box, as long as you're there with me (obviously I don't want to live in a box, but if it comes between owning a gorgeous house and never seeing him, or owning a modest fixer upper and us being together, I will take the latter every time).
