The economic dimension of marriage

[Kelward]

Due to economic hardships that are experienced in many countries new couples now consider financial capability of who they want to get married to, atleast they want a spouse that wouldn't become a financial burden to them. This is why the era of a single breadwinner in a family is gradually fading out, most men wants to marry industrious women that will support the family financially due to the high cost of living and inflation.

Financial capability and skills are now a major part of what constitutes love in many societies so to be eligible for marriage means that you are bringing something tangible to the table not just good characters. Poverty is very bad and it is one of the major cause of most quarrels between married people, if a family is financially balanced they wouldn't quarrel so much.

I hear stories of people marrying solely because of love. People get married without considering the financial strength or capability of their partners. But these days, people are beginning to consider the financial status of their partners before marrying them. The global financial crisis has caused inflation, and the price of goods and services is getting higher every day. People are seeking means to overcome financial hardship. Except for those who are very rich, but others are seeking support from partners.

Should the economic dimension be considered before choosing a partner?

Love is the foundation that allows a couple to continue living together forever until one of them passes away. Because of love, a family is willing to stand by one another. However, finances serve to smooth the way and strengthen the love within a household. Everything requires money—from food, drink, and basic necessities like housing to secondary needs such as vacations, clothing, and other things.

Should economic factors be considered before entering into a marriage? In my opinion, they should be, as I have already mentioned. It’s not that everything must be about material things, but material needs are necessary to prevent mysteries from arising within the household.

It's best to marry someone who is likewise determined to make money on her own and isn't lazy, because such women will always motivate you financially. However, you do not analyse whether the individual is rich or poor; rather, you look at the person's attitude towards financial growth, because someone who is impoverished now can become extremely wealthy tomorrow. As a result, financial security is not a requirement for getting married to someone.

Some people bring good luck to their relationships, and they make progress when they work together and have a common aim.

Currently, people want to get spouses who can contribute to the family financially. I am not saying it is wrong to marry solely because of love, but people are also considering the financial capacity of a person before they fall in love. Truthfully, I don't know what I would have done without my wife. Her financial and moral support has been what has kept our family afloat. I loved her, but her financial discipline, handwork and creativity made me love her more.

As I said before, I am not saying loving unconditionally is wrong or no longer exists. But I am saying the people are also considering the economic dimension of marriage before commitment.

Theoretically, the creation of a family is a union based on mutual feelings and... mutual compromise 
But this is all rum antics and feelings, and we live in the real world, where there are other laws and rules, including fiancial.
And they tell us - for the well-being of the family, in addition to mutual feelings, there is a reality where the financial side - has not the last place.
Ideally, a couple should understand this, and both of them should jointly form the family budget. 
And what will actually happen - people will know only after living together for some time....

Honestly I will say that financial capacity is very important, but financial mindset is even more better because someone can have alot of money but if such person is hardworking, responsible and knows how to manage resources, that alone can build a stronger future than someone who has money but lacks discipline. When it comes to marriage, you see love and financial understanding is not suppose to compete with one another or each other. Because when both are present, partners or couples can easily handle challenges much better and together they can work towards their shared goals.

To be honest love is not enough in marriage, it's good for both partner to work hand in hand especially now that prices of goods increase daily.

You see the idea of woman solely dependant on husband is what I don't like,even if your husband is rich ,you have to be making your own money , imagine your husband is facing some financial challenges and everything is affected ,even feeding,some small bills,there are times when a man need some support from wife, but immediately things goes wrong  they start going to friends because there wife has nothing to give ,taking care of home and kids is good ,but as a woman is good to have something doing ,before considering marriage ,my partner must have something  doing.

Two incomes is definitely better than one, so yes, people get married in order to combine income with their spouse and grow in life together, it may not be the main reason for getting married, but it is definitely one of it. So, every month they pool their resources/income together, a portion of it goes to their basic and miscellaneous needs, while the other is invested in apreciating assets.

Doing things this way would greatly reduce stress on either spouse and see them achieve their financial goals a whole lot quicker.

To marry solely because you love a person is not enough in these current economic times where inflation is the order of the day, because money is what sustains love in a relationship with a promising future.

When there's money from both partners or both share same financial habits and consciousness, there's going to be balance, peace of mind, mutual support to assist growth and creativity in the mix of things. That's why financial discipline from both partners is very paramount.

If you care about the future of the family you intend to build, having both partners who understand great financial management practices is the pillar or better still, the foundation on which the marriage would thrive to last and that's why the economic dimension of any relationship, that is, of both partners and in this case marriage, is key to marriage success and fulfillment.

Currently living costs rising consistently and its very important for individuals to become a financialy compatible person. Relationship is built due to love but to sustain it good financial roots is much more important. So when both partners well aware about purchasing and savings they works hard and work together to achieve financial stability. Marriage is not all and all depends on financial stability and in societies even financially well satled couoles faces the challenges of trust and loyalt. So a successful marriage life requires both emotional and financial stability. They have complete knowledge about there expnesis even befor marriage and they get success in marriage by managing both emotional and financial sides equally because if an individual remains fail in one side gradually he collapes in marriage and its becomes difficult for him to take marriage for long term.
