Marry for Love or Money – The Results Are In

The late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was rumored to have said, "The first time you marry for love, the second for money, and the third for companionship." If that is correct, a recent study would suggest couples are bucking that trend and marrying for money above love. 56% of Americans, in fact, say money motivated their decision to get married. We wanted to know how Southwest Michigan stacked up to these findings, so we asked you the big question; Marry for love, or marry for money?Here are the results:

• Love: 13 people enthusiastically declared they married for money
• For the Love of Money: 3 people
• Health insurance: 1 person married for benefits
• Neither: 1 (not sure if this person is single or has other motivations to put a ring on it
• Misc: 1 survey participant was unclear toward their motivation
