Marry Smart<\/h3>\n

This isn’t about marrying someone rich; that’s marrying well.<\/em><\/p>\n

Marrying smart means to marry someone as cheap as you are.<\/p>\n

Your woman is always in charge. If she’s as silly with her money as most people, after you’re married, you can forget about having any money ever again.<\/p>\n

A woman’s job is to spend your money. If she hasn’t shown that she can spend her own money well, she certainly won’t spend yours any better.<\/p>\n

I got lucky with my wife. She’s even cheaper than I am, but she’s rare.<\/p>\n

Want to know how cheap she is? She hates flowers because she can’t bear knowing that they die in a week and then the money is gone. She’d rather just have the money. I sometimes leave a $20 on the counter. When she asks “what’s this?” I respond “flowers.” She then gets all smiley.<\/p>\n

Marriage is weird.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Though, as wierd as it is, it’s quite appealing to someone like me. I’m pretty cheap as well (contrary to popular belief) I just think some investments are more valuable than others; I’d sooner get my GF a boxed set of a series of books she likes than flowers simply because they last.<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
