Most women don't want men for their money. They learn quickly though, he won't take care of bills, or her so they must get it before he blows it in. These women want money because they know their husbands can't handle money and if they don't get it while he has it, they and the children will have to do without what they need. No matter how much a woman loves a man if he turns out to be a spendthrift and terrible with handling money their love will be killed in degrees as he leaves her broke all the time and the "needs" of life denied her. Love just can't survive under those conditions.
