hagalgal chozer baolam. no its not true if you have money now then you will 25 yrs down the line. that is young and foolish. hashem has a plan for everyone.
to the poster saying the above statement. have you never seen anyone be filthy rich and loose it overnight? for so many reasons I cant count?
op the persons character is what matters. you can be filthy rich and have a miserble person to live with. and anyway money comes from hashem. its not in our hands. dh is multitalented. and I mean it. and he just makes just enough. n
chazal say, lo lachachomim lechem. its not the the smart ones that is wealthy. we think if we have a big nice degree we will be making nice money. no its not that way. its hishtadlus and the rest is up to hashem. I have seen fools make a lot of money and I have seen smart individuals make nothing to cover their bread. |
Yes everything cones from hashem but it happens to be that I know a few ppl who are very rich and they are very nice ppl with good middos. To say ppl who are rich are spoiled brats is not true. So why would a rich person be misrable to live with? There can be a gem of a boy who also owns a healthcare business or....which will provide an "excess" of income.

I married someone with no savings or earnings (learning), whose parents contributed no money (other than toward the wedding), and I consider myself the happiest woman alive. I didn't even give money a second's thought.
I wonder about the language "let your child marry" Whoa. Did your parents tell you who to marry? I know mine didn't. I made the decision myself, since I was an adult who was...old enough to get married.

Are you able to contribute to their expenses when they're starting out?

'Let'? My children are adults. I'll happily accept a potential child in law without money if he or she is the right fit for my kid. Or a rich one. Whatever, as long as they are the right fit for my kids.
My kids are mentchen. They also deserve that.
