What if it's an important part of the equation? Stable marriages have rather strong inverse correlations to poverty levels. Maybe finding someone rich in this case was especially fortunate, but even marrying someone of similar economic means tends to be a boon (on average at least).
And pathology... most people are "pathological" in some way. It's hard for me to tut about personal inclinations too much.
- skinnymuch 7y agoThe OPs point is marriage to a rich guy. Not just marriage.
- dsswh 7y agoThe causation here is the opposite: rich guys are more likely to get married because they are attractive partners. It's like discovering the correlation between the cleanness of a car and its price and hoping to increase its value by keeping it clean.
