I'll take love after I've acquired some wealth so my love has something to fall on and not someone else's couch. lol

Octoberbaby, why are you in school diversifying degrees and skills? for love? Come on now you are busily setting up wealth in your future and the only reason you'd get with a broke man is because being the breadwinner is appealing to you. Your money.

There's synchronicity to events in life but they're choices made in destiny. (Matt. 7:13-14)

The question should really be which one comes first? Some people want to find love and build together, others want to be set up nice so they can look for love in comfort. 😄

I don't know, at the end they're only choices. It balances out in the Universe.

It's just funny that whenever topics like these arise, there's always one side who is more entitled than the other - usually using spirituality to slam the other side.

You chose wealth - you are superficial
You chose love - aww, you're so deep

It just seems funny to me, that's all.

if you had to choose one...

sun sign?




If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love,

I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of

prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith

that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I

possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do

not have love, I gain nothing....


Love never fails.

Wealth buys a lot of love most of the time. Though people will say that money doesn't buy love but it seems people will pay more attention when you have money and make it rain that proverbial green paper.



I doubt that rings true for a wealthy woman though.

You'd be surprised. The money blinds both of the genders in this case.

So much for one party being more entitled than the other.

Actually mutable signs can flow the other way too. To support the LOVE-HATE-gruppies here I bring my favorite song:

Look at the world I have conquered
I've won every spin of the wheel
I get everything I go after
They ask me how does it feel
...
Give me one more chance at the midway
Let me laugh and be gay as a clown (emmm. like saggies?)
Give me back the world I remember
One more ride on the merry go round

I do my shopping in Paris
My clothes are Cardin and Dior
There's money to buy friends and lovers
Well, isn't that what it's for?


But when I go to my bedroom
And stare at my hand painted sky
I think of a world far behind me
A world that my money can't buy

when i was really young, with my first husband, i chose LOVE. we were POOR as shit.
we didnt even finish our schooling, and we just married, because of LOVE.
there was no grounding, although I eagerly wanted to be a wife and be with my husband.

As you get older, and through some seriously fucked up relationships, with a couple of bad boys.....who did NOTHING for you....
you realise, you can't buy love.....but you can't live without money can you?

if you're POOR as fuck, you'll be miserable and starving and you can't have a family because your family needs a roof over their heads, good clothing, a good education, ect.

so, yes, 10th house scorpio sun male. For the WIN. (with dominant fire for my taste) If you can get that "type" .....more POWER to you. hahahaha.

That's why I stressed that having the means to be "comfortable" as in *stable* financially and get your needs met is very important.
While having buckets money does not BUY happiness, there is also something to be said for how stressful, painful and awful living in poverty (and I MEAN POVERTY, as in we don't get everything we need---food, clothing, medical care...not "poverty" as in I can't afford the new iphone....) can really be. But ultimately anyone who is rich can be miserable and anyone who is poor can be happy, though having your needs met does make it easier to rest easy at night, especially if you have kids and need to provide for them.


alot of people aren't ready for a family/relationships. They just seem to want to have a good time. They don't like responsibility i notice. but yep. I hear ya!

Love - Aqua
Why do I laugh when I see those two words together?

because the sign itself is COLD. But looking at sun alone @cafeastrology says that they're supposedly innovative. There's nothing innovative about some of us, that's for sure. I'm backwards in technology. I know more people whose sun is in other signs to be futuristic and technology filled. Even my husband and my ex with the virgo moon is much technology oriented.
So, think about it. Innovative is love?? *rollseyes* they make it sound like a bunch of poo-poo.
but in all seriousness, cap and aqua are born in the WINTER, technically unless you're born in the summer countries. But winter babies, even winter people in Sweden, Finland,Denmark, come off real cold. not because they are COLD people, but the temperment itself makes them that way. Brrrrrrrrrrrrr............get some winter coats people, winter is coming!!

Love can buy you a lifetime of happiness and one of your purposes on earth.

It is not shallow so it can't buy you materials.



Love does all that huh?
You're 23 and let me tell you, love comes and goes.
And it will not give you a lifetime of happiness.
There are times when you will be happy but pain and sadness goes along with the package.
And oftentimes love won't keep a relationship together.

Women wanting wealthy men or wealth in general goes along with our need for security.
No surprises by the responses in this thread, also no surprises by the PC crowd either.

but that's not love though. that's just plain and simple: SECURITY.

Even then, the old billionaire will throw you out if you don't do what he asks. You have NO freedom, but you have money and lots of $ $ $ To spend on designer clothing and jewelry.

It's temporary happiness but it's not the REAL thing.

still, they don't starve and they desire wealth so.... you can't blame them or judge them for wanting that. We're not them.

That was my point. Women want security.
The old billionaire will still have to follow the law and pay her what was agreed in the pre-nup.
If she was smart enough to get a good lawyer to help her design a contract that makes her rich when it ended.

Happiness is a state of mind, you can't tell me that what makes me happy would make you just as happy.
