I'm wondering if I'm being a ***** about this or if my concerns are genuine. People say money doesn't matter when it comes to relationships, but it kind of does. Couples break up or divorce over money issues all the time.

I would imagine poor plucks and the idiots that date them came up with this saying. Having enough money to put food on the table and roof over your head is the minimum one should have to bring a child in this world

As Bob Segar says, you're 10 minutes late for the door.

Just a comment on those that chimed in bad credit = thief.

You all ever go through a divorce with an ex that financially railroads you? Try keeping your credit good after such a mess.

I am just above the poverty line and I make just enough to cover my bills and pay for college out of pocket. I just do not have any money to do anything but I got school it what I do for fun. I make each month my the skin of my teeth . To tell you the truth if I was not in school I would be working 80 hours a week so I can have a buck.

From my experience and observation especially in living in poor NorthEastern city, this is very true. Women like that are like, what can possibly go wrong, he is good looking guy. Women like that will look over a guys personality, income, education, current relationship and every other history that guy has. Im not hating, more power to guys like this. Quite frankly I'm a bit jealous, but this is what I have seen before. In matter of fact I'm seeing a woman who told me a similar story, her ex man was really good looking, broke, what can possibliy go wrong, he is good looking and trust worthy, he was really abusive, he even got her pregnant. In due time she had to have an abortion.

At the end of the day, it all boils down to money. Don't get me wrong, you have plenty of independent women these days that make their own money, You have some women that say, that they don't need a mans money! Look at these independent women with the guys they date, guys who make minimum wage, exons, criminals, high school dropouts and so forth, but they love to be with these guys for relationships. I due hope these realtionships are short term and never long term, because if long term problems will begin to show on its way to a downward spiral because of the lack of money!
