Stop shadchanim, parents, and friends from telling a girl that money is the most important thing. It’s sad that it’s such a factor. I mean why do so many woman choose money over a good heart? If a guy is trying his best and works hard and has such a good heart, why must he be alone simply because he doesn’t have a career? Aside for the fact that naturally women are attracted to money and love being spoiled( in general yes), the external influences such as those who are close to her corrupt her mind. What will happen when you have kids they say. What will be when your pregnant? Do you want to live on the street? Oh please you didn’t even get married and already raising things that aren’t even in anyone’s control.
I get it women who want money will always want that and will probably find it if they are pretty enough. But something about today’s mindset is very problematic. Yes we need money to survive, but if your doing your best and are a good guy, what else is left? Did we forget what emunah is? Is anything guaranteed for the better or worse? Can someone with a career not lose it? Can someone with a simple job not advance? Don’t woman also work nowadays? Why does it have to be that if they work they will only marry a man who makes either as much or more? Is it a competition? This is what’s wrong today the mindset.
