Love is priceless.

The guy that has nothing probably need you to support him. If you are able and willing to support him financially your whole life, then you might want to marry this guy. But I suspect how long you can bear living with a guy who has nothing but love. Lack of money is the main cause that ruins love and marriages. If you marry this guy, then it is likely that you will break up with him sooner or later.
If the guy doesn't have money now, but have the potential to earn a reasonable income in the future, then you might want to choose him. At least you will not be burdened to pay for his expenses.
For the rich guy, you need to question yourself that do you like his money or himself as a person. If he is 80 years old, and that you are only 20 years old, would you want to marry him. You have to think about this. However, if he is young and very rich, then you might want to consider him. If you are 25, and he is just 33, then you should consider this guy. Love can be cultivated over time when a man and a woman stays and sleeps together long enough. You might end up loving this rich guy much more than the other guy, because the rich guy has much more to offer. More money means more options in life. Money can bring happiness and solve many many problems.
For a lot of today's women, money goes before love.
The best scenairo is the man that you love is also very rich.

That can be a difficult question to answer. Love IS priceless, no doubt, but when lack of money comes into the picture the relationship is strained. I wouldn't marry the rich guy if I don't love him. That would be pointless. But I would have to think about marrying the other guy. If he has nothing to offer me, how will we survive? What about our kids? If we have kids, how will we care for them? If the poor guy really loves you, he'll make sure he's got SOMETHING to offer you before he walks you down that aisle. You can't only think with your heart; you've got to be a bit practical, too. Love is beautiful, but it doesn't pay the bills and it doesn't provide for the family. Choose carefully and wisely; that's my opinion.

The choice is not for love or money. The choice is for happiness.
Which would you be happier with. If you are accustomed to a certain lifestyle you can't live without, and marrying one guy won't get you it, then by all means marry the money and i won't think less of it for you. It's the smart choice to make, especially if you have or want kids.
On the other hand, if you know you can put up with anything for this guy and it does not matter how hard you have to struggle, then marry for love.
The real question is, which will make you happy. Answer that and you'll know what to do.
Wait... was this hypothetical?

The question is, do you really love the guy??? In this times, people say that you should go to the practical side, and therefore I must say that go to the rich guy. But If you love the guy so strong and you know that the poor guy can offer you, not just love, but also respect, loyalty, care and guidance.... I'll go for the poor guy whatever it takes, even if the rich guy offers me the world :)

Don't marry a rich guy. It is better to marry the one whom you love. Once married he will search for some job to settle.

The situation you describe involves circumstances as they exist NOW. Marry the one you love,and he may one day become rich. Marry the rich guy, and he may one day become poor. On the other hand, you may learn to love the rich guy, and you may stop loving the other one. Get it? I think the key is to evaluate yourself. How will you react to changing circumstances? On the other hand, nothing may change. Or on the OTHER other hand, the one who offers only love might stop loving you, and the rich guy might learn to love you and thereby offer you both love and riches. Think about it. This is not doubletalk. Get it?

Riches and abundance come in all forms, not just in financial wealth. You can be wealthy with love and feel joy. What are we all really looking for? Don't we want to be happy and joyful? Does money = joy? I'm not saying it's evil or bad or anything like that. But it's not a prerequisite for joy. I think I would have to choose the love. But you also don't have to believe that it's all or nothing. You get what you believe in. If you believe that by choosing love you'll never have money, then that's what you'll get. But if you believe that you can have it all, then you can. You can choose the love, but still be open to recieving money and then it will come to you. You have to believe it though.

If it is true love, then marry the man you claim to love as you will receive riches beyond all measure of mear coin. If it is mear lust, the marry the man of money and you will both get what you deserve, the emptiness of cash...
Do as your deepest heart wills and you will never go wrong.

Ofcourse, marry the one you love and who loves you back. If he loves you, he'll want to work hard and provide for you as a family. Every man has that desire in him to be able to be a good provider for his family. If he loves you, but is lazy, that's not going to cut it. You need someone who is responsible and hardworking. Be patient and be by him, and help chip in too. You both can do it, if both have the right values, and determination.

Marry the one you love and you make the money.
