Marry a Millionaire

I can't name a single person who doesn't have some fantasies about being filthy rich. Just look at the lines of people buying lottery tickets and you'll see the stars in their eyes. I can't name a single woman who doesn't have some fantasies about a Prince Charming, and of course in our fantasies a Prince Charming is more likely quite rich. There are reality TV shows that allow people to compete for the opportunity to win the heart of and marry a millionaire. That just doesn't seem to be the proper way to court and fall in love. But, stuff like that brings in viewers and more viewers ensure profits for TV producers.  It is very difficult to find true love.  However if you think that key to your happiness is money - marry a millionaire!

The question is how are you going to do it? Do you just walk up to people in the streets, ask them if they're rich and single? It's a great fantasy but not one that most people have the pleasure of turning into a reality. Why? Because it is actually a lot of work involved, however if you really want to marry a millionaire, you can make it happen!

My mother always told me that you are who you surround yourself with. If you want to be rich, surround yourself with rich people. You might have to change your lifestyle before you even attempt to chase that dream. Just think about it - millionaires are mostly well educated, worldly and live life in a certain manner. You might have to start educating yourself and learning as much as possible. Art, opera, gourmet cuisine and good wine as well as politics and economics have to be your favorite subjects to learn. Remember you don't only have to look good, you have to be able to talk with confidence and manners. You have to be able to fit in. Normal people can't marry a millionaire if they don't play the part. My girlfriend married a very very wealthy man. She was a Cinderella. But it wasn't a fairy tale, she worked a lot on it. Remember Marilyn Monroe's role in "How to Marry A Millonaire"? Pretend you're her. Woo the man that you've always dreamed of.

I can't say that just because you may get lucky enough to marry a millionaire, you'll be happy. As much as you may think money buys happiness, and for me it just might, it may have the opposite affect. Perhaps after the ownership of expensive materials gets boring, you may realize how much they don't really make difference to you. It could happen. I knew a woman who was crying everyday sitting in her fifty million dollars house. You've probably seen the shows and movies. There's always the lady who does marry a millionaire and has a miserable life. Maybe he's never around. Maybe he has girlfriends all over the place. Maybe she's lonely and empty inside. Maybe they need to spend some of their earnings on therapy.

I certainly didn't marry a millionaire, but he is one in a million. We don't struggle to pay our bills but I would absolutely love to have a huge house and expensive cars, constant shopping sprees and go on exotic vacations. In fact, that's what I think about when I'm waiting behind all of those hopeful people in the lines to buy lottery tickets. I don't need to marry a millionaire, I just need a few lucky winning numbers.
