i'm going to be making myself rich, i don't need a man to do that for me :D

i completely agree...what is a relationship w/o passion? i mean if you dread going to bed every night in fear your husband is gonna try something, you're romantic life is gonna suck. plus, who says i won't be the one w/ all the dough!!!!!!

and i agree with valykrie - passion in the bedroom breeds passion in other areas of life, and i would rather have a man so passionate about his life and the people in it than self absorbed about making the next buck

I agree with iowahawkeye... i would take amazing sex and a great passion for life.
money... well yea its helpful and i would definate like that, but I don't think i'd be as happy. plus the rich CEO probably wouldn't have a sense of humor ;) and thats the best thing for me, make me laugh and you're all good :p

LOL I thought of someone's signature when I saw this thread. I think it was either damasa's or bobbthedon's.

Well, in real life, I don't think it would be as simple as sex or money, because there would be more to it than that. The first thing I think of when I think "loaded CEO" is an older, self-absorbed guy who eats steak, drives an SUV, has a wine cellar, smokes cigars, is conservative, looks in the mirror more than I do and has no interest in pleasing a woman. When I think "penniless dreamer" I think of a younger, artist/musician type who is creative and interesting, compassionate, liberal, shops at Whole Foods and reads poetry, and is insightful and willing to please others. Now please understand that I IN NO WAY mean to say that these characteristics apply in any way to EVERY guy who is either a CEO or penniless. These were just the first things that popped into my head (and I haven't had coffee yet).

LMAO LMAO! Where are you? :(

I couldn't care less about sex.

Funny how people change in 5 1/2 years! :)

I still think I would go for money. I am a broke grad student. And when I graduate I will have student loans. Plus, the profession I'm going to school for doesn't pay shit.

However, if someone would let me be a pillow princess/queen, I so would NOT choose the money. Yep, I just said that! :eek:

No doubt - great sex. So what if I'm poor - I can just have sex and forget all about it. :p

totally great sex over money...you can always make money--and i wouldnt marry anyone for money--im not that girl. id rather make my own and not have to depend on anyone else.

I say neither. I'd rather find someone who was somewhere in the middle of the 2 extremes.

Penniless dreamers were fun as a college student/20-something looking for fun. (Note - I interpret penniless dreamer to generally be someone not terribly motivated.) But, while I would never marry for money and certainly would turn down the cold fish CEO, let's face reality - when you have a household to run (kids, bills, mortgage, etc.), you need a partner who's going to work hard right along with you. Not be frittering the days away with one half-baked dream after another...

In my situation, my husband acts like a miser but has nowhere near enough money as a loaded CEO.

But, I actually had the choice of marrying a multi-millionare. But, if you marry one, when he says "jump", you have to say "how high"? If he wants you buck naked on the bed before he comes home, guess what you have to be...

I felt I deserved better and when I finally met the man who would be my husband, I felt completed as a human being. I felt truly blessed.

at the risk of sounding ho-ish, id have to get with the good sex.

i am the type of girl that, although i love cash, if i was with Dr. Cold Fish, id be gettin the sex from somewhere else. Pool boy anyone?

a guy that is 100% focused on me but not too rich? i'm all for that! hell, he can just work 2 jobs, or ill work 2, whatever!

Liking good sex doesn't make you look ho-ish, unless you're around crazy prudes. Liking sex with 30+ men, may make you look ho-ish.

It might've worked ;)

Great question. I think I would have to say great sex. A rich guy is not really important for me, as long as he's working and responsible that's all that matters. We can always find ways to make more money. A guy with ambition will find a way. If he doesn't, then we'll just continue having great sex. :)

In real life, other factors need to be considered. But I would definately go with the great sex.

I'd take the money. Great sex isn't so great in cardboard box, under a bridge, or in a motel filled with drifters and junkies.
