Does Your Man’s Money Matter? Reasons To Love Him, Not His Loot

January 28th, 2012 - By Brooke Dean

Let’s face it, women love to be wined, dined and spoiled. If we had to choose between man with a Black card and a poor man, there wouldn’t be much of a choice to make. However, the reality is in this economy, a woman (or man) would be fortunate to find a mate with a job, let alone a sizable bank account. But are a man’s finances a deal breaker for you? After all, broke men need love too…and here are some reasons to consider dating a man without means…

     As a man I don’t think there is anything wrong with wanting a financially secure man. However, I will say that I would also prefer that out of all the attributes that make me who I am the fact that I am financially secure would be the icing on the cake not the “main” reason she says “I do”. When my financial being is the number one reason why you a) are with me, b) tolerate me and c) stay with me that’s when the term “gold-digger” becomes applicable.

      This article didnt mention income as solely the reason for choosing a mate.  But it certainly is a part of it.  Im sure you didnt choose a broke mate.

    Funny, it was just Thursday that my boyfriend played Jah Cure’s “Unconditional Love” for me and said it reminded him of me:)

    No, his money does not matter, but his work ethic does.

    I think while this article has sparked some great debate, you all are taking it WAY too seriously. It’s clear it was written part in truth, but also part in sarcasm. The whole “magic stick” angle was to show a REASON some women stay with men with no money, but it in no way “glorified” it. It simply stated that it was a reason why women stay in relationships with men with no money or ambition longer than they should. Stop reading so much into it…stating reasons isn’t the same as JUSTIFYING or CONDONING it. We should be smarter than that.
