MONEY MADNESS: What’s Love Got to Do With It? Turns Out, a Lot

What do ladies put on the front burner, love or money?       

CJuly 20203“Cartoon-July 2020” After all, with the right guy who splashes lots of cash around, she can have a wonderful life. That’s why some women will opt for money over love any day.

Many women skew their sentiments and desire towards money rather than love. Even with all the sweet lyrics in the world, what is he going to give her for Christmas or where is he going to take her for New Year’s Eve?”

Even as he spouts the words “Baby I love you,” she thinks “Brandsmart, Rooms to Go and Macy’s having a big sale and I need new stuff.”

NETWORK

Women network, and they love to be able to boast to their friends what their men bought them or where they took them. Love alone can’t buy them presents or take them to a fine restaurant.

The plain, cold truth is, women are hardwired to spend money. Even when they’re not shopping, they still go to the mall and browse around to window shop. They just can’t help it. That’s why sales are geared towards women, as the merchants see them as prime targets.

Shopping releases endorphins in the brain that stimulates their pleasure receptors making them feel ecstatic. Women can get excited just by shopping, but men do not have that capability, except when buying a new flat screen TV. Basically, men hate to go shopping.

So, in many cases, love has no chance against money.

TOXIC

That’s why so many women remain in toxic relationships, just because of what they can get from the man - the nice house, social standing, great car to drive. All compensate for the lack of love. Even the abuse they will endure, as long as the money is flowing.

For that very reason many young, attractive women will get involved with an undesirable man who has no other appeal but strength of cash. Enter the well-off old guy with the fancy townhouse and shiny SUV and see how quickly she “falls in love” with him.

Women do love, but they also crave security and new things to play with. As Tina Turner sang, “What’s love got to do with it?”

Love is great, but it’s not the greatest adhesive for relationships. Statistics have shown that the main cause for divorce is money worries. Even with the love that held them together in the early stages, the lack of money proved to be their undoing.

Most women would never admit to the choice, but in reality it’s money that makes the mare run and the filly fed. It’s easier to fall in love with a man who’s well off than a poor schmuck who has no money.

In the sparring session, race or conflict, money conquers love. Money wins hands down.
