My cousin has this with her husband. They're likely the best couple I have ever seen. Not a single fight, ever, afaik (from what her sister told me). They're best friends. Two great kids, wealthy and successful, and overall they just have a ton of fun together living and enjoying life.
- poisonarena 8y agodo you think wealthy and successful plays a role?
- DoreenMichele 8y agoI have seen some things that suggest causation runs the other way: Good marriages lead to success and wealth. Bad ones lead to other outcomes, including divorce, which can be financially ruinous. There's always plenty of gossip in the news about rich people with bad marriages, infidelity, repeated divorce and remarriage etc. Though I imagine serious poverty doesn't generally improve a relationship.
- Ma8ee 8y agoNot having to worry about money eliminates a lot of sources for conflict. It’s not a big deal if my wife splurges on something that I find pointless, and paying someone to clean means we don’t have to argue about the mess in the kitchen.
- charlesdm 8y agoI would say no on the wealth part initially. But I think (being on the road to) success is a major part of what attracted her to him initially. They were already together for a few years when he almost went under with one of his companies, on the verge of losing millions of euros (and most of his capital at the time), and she helped turn it around by helping out as much as she could. Wealth however does make it possible to keep your lifestyle "fun" -- they travel frequently to interesting locations (a long trip every 3-4 months, sometimes with and sometimes without the kids) As far as true love goes, it sure seems like that is what they have.
