Re: how much does marriage cost..??

I'm going to go against the grain on this one. My partner and I have been togeather for the best part of 28 years. I have never entertained the thought that she was costing me anything. We have a trusting and equal relationship that has flourished and grown with the years. Heck even now she tells me to spend some money on myself. After the kids formative years when we had to be a bit miserly I find it kind of strange to have a few dollars in the wallet.<br />My wife is not the kind to rip anybody off and I certainly wouldn't do likewise to her. Our children have been bought up to value the importance of money within relationships also.<br />Ross

A GOOD marriage is priceless, but I can assure you if its a bad one you'll pay for as long as it lasts.<br /><br />Here's a little diddy for ya....."You think you are in clover 'til the honeymoon is over" author Grandpa Hartnett (married over 50 years to my Grandmom) ;) :)

So far, the boat costs more than the marriage. I must have gotten a low maintainence model. (Wife, that is....)

I'm with Ross J on this one - marriage has been my best asset - she is a doll and such a helpful partner. Don't know what I would do without her!

There would be a lot more good ones if it cost $100,000 to get married, & $10.00 to get divorced

Try $20K to marry, and approx $400K to divorce. Been there, done that............. zzzzzzzzz<br /><br /><br />T-shirt? Did someone say T-shirt? <br /><br />All-in-all. Not good. Best thing is you can enjoy marriage and have heaps of fun, and a few kids too. Then when everything gets TFD, you can pay your money and change over to the "fun side". I've learnt a lot in the 5 years since the divorce! :D
