Your question implies that you believe that all people who are not wealthy are losers and that those with wealth are somehow more worthy human beings.
Newsflash: There are plenty of wealthy scumbags out their just as there are plenty of excellent human beings who have little in the way of physical wealth (particularly in their younger years).
Take me, for example. When my wife and I started dating I was a dirt poor working musician/part time window washer (what you would probably consider to be a loser). Now some 20 years later I am a very well paid professional (software engineer). However, my profession and income are not the point. Of my wife's and my 5 siblings we are one of only two couples who have not been through nasty divorces as well as other less than pleasant life situations. I believe myself to be an excellent father to our two children and am proud to say that in all of our years of marriage I have never strayed.
Perhaps you should re-examine your definition of "loser". Keep in mind that she is in a much better position to know a heck of a lot more about the underlying character of the young man in question than you are. |

Why is money important to you. Being poor doesnt make someone a looser. As long as the guy is treating her good, let her marry who she falls in love with! |

NO

You can't insist on any decision your daughter makes in her life.....she needs to follow her heart in order to truely find happiness. Support her in what ever decision she makes. Your her dad..not a dictator! |

You have nothing to say on who she marries at all. No matter what you feel for the guy she has to learn on her own if he is a loser or not. Its her life and her choices, she has to make them on her own. |

You can insist all you want, but she is the one who will make the choice. Just be there for her if she falls on hard times no matter who she marries. |

It's great that your concerned about your daughter, but it's ridiculous for you to even think that she would only marry a loser if not rich. For example their a lot of hard working individuals that are not rich in money, but very rich in love, an in the heart. So advise your daughter to do just that, follow her heart. |

If you truly love your daughter, you will let her follow her heart. Forcing her to marry someone that she is not attracted to or the type she isn't attracted to will only cause her to suffer in a marriage that is doomed to failure. |

Good luck insisting on anything with your daughter. If she's the sort of daughter who listens to your advice, don't insist. Instead, converse with her and lead her to your conclusion. Yes, she should want to marry someone (not necessarily wealthy) who has the means to live an adequate life. |

No! NO! NO!!!!!!!!
let her marry whom ever she loves, and feels complete with.
I'm sure you just want her to be comfortable in life and not always be broke.
but "money REALLY isn't everything" I'm serious..i know from my own experience =]
she will love you even more thatn she already does if you support her :)
p.s. that doesn't mean you can't give your daughter fiancee a hard time though....lol
that's a WHOLE different story :)

You shouldn't insist she marries anyone. Let her make that decision for herself. |

You can always try but she'll probably choose the opposite of what you tell her ;o) |
|

Booo

No... I know u want your daughter to have a good life and anything she needs, but don't forget money is NOT everything... For example, my family hates my boyfriend... but since I love him ,I'm slowly starting to hate them. Be careful, love is a very very strong thing. |
|

No. Let her marry whoever she likes, but also tell her that you won't financialy support her if she messes up. |

If we lived in an ideal world where we controlled whom we fall inlove with than yes, however we dont and unfortunatly you cant tell her she cant be with someone she will only resent you and she probably wont speak with you after she marries. So only let her know the kind of life she can lead with certain men and who knows she may be the bread winner in the family |

let her marry whom ever she wants, its her life, n she will learn if she makes a mistake. |

If you raise your daughter correct, she will make the right choices. Love shows no biases. It is up to you if you give her an ultimatum. However, when your daughter is an adult, she might rebel because she found her soul-mate at the mini-mart. Money does not buy happiness, but with love...anything is possible. |

No you should insit that you daughter marry a good man instead of a loser. Money has nothing to due with the quality of a person, in fact usually the more money the more negative the character. |
|

|
no, you should insist that you only marry for love. whats the point of marring wealthy if she's going to be forced to sign a pre-nup and then divorce in a few years with nothing to show for it except depression and hatred of men? |
|

SHERRI
|
NO!!! As long as your daughter is happy, treated well and is happy then you should be happy for her and her man. Trust how she was raised to make the right decisions for herself. |

no money is the wrong reason to marry someone beleive me my mom learned her leason and now shes miserable with her choice |
|

If you either want your daugther to refuse to have anything to do with you, or you want her to be miserable for the rest of her life, or both, then yes, go right ahead. If however you want to be a good father, you will support your daughter in her choices even if you don't necessarily agree with them. Wealth doesn't necessarily mean happiness and if you can only have one, go for happiness. (Ok both is good, if she can have both then great, but if it's a choice, go with happiness) |

No, you should not insist on anything unless she is a minor. Give her your advice and opinions, but let her make her own mistakes. |

You should insist that your daughter marry someone who makes her happy and treats her with respect and loves her. |
|

|
no...because, what if the wealthy man treats her badly, and what if the "loser" treats her well and becomes wealthy eventually? let her marry who she truly loves. |
|

No. This is her issue, not yours. Stay out of it. |

Started my career and achieved the top position in my profession. Numerous promotions and transfers, BUT would NEVER dream of attempting to place my desires in front of my son's relationships. Any issues of this sort relative to this should be PURELY based upon love and respect NOT money. |
