This isn't a rehash of zewt's post about which guy to fear more, but rather a simple question of which you would rather have. And this is the answer I overheard of a conversation between two colleagues:
A: Which would you rather have? Money or your husband?
B: You mad ah? Money of course!
A: Don't you want your husband?
B: No need him la.
A: Don't say like that, after you will regret when you're old and there's no one in your life.
B: So what? If I got money, I can find myself a gigolo.
I happen to know that colleague B's husband is a nice man who looks after the children and the house while she doesn't have to lift a little finger to do anything. And I also know that when he calls her, she has little patience to speak to him and always barks / is curt with him. And in case you're wondering, he is well off enough to afford a nice condo in pricey Mont Kiara area and she drives a big car and wears/uses expensive stuff. And she still wants money over him? *shakes head*
There is a saying that goes - Out of the desires of the heart, the mouth speaketh. Maybe that's what she truly wants. You may call me idealist but I believe that marriage is for life. It's not something to play around with. I'm not so idealist as to think that there won't be problems along the way, but I do think that if both parties really want to they can work it out.
So as for colleague B, I dunno what to say except use her own words... You mad ah?

17 spins:
Mish thinks that one cannot be too demanding .. must try to be happy with what he/she has :)
hehehe .. am I wrong? Forget about it if I am wrong hahaha :)
I think when push comes to shove, a lot of the answers may change.. It's easy to choose now, either money or companion.
hmmm... she mad ah? maybe, maybe not. it all depends on what makes her happy, I suppose.
I've seen wives like this too... it's really scary... *shrugs*
Sounds like she married him for the money. Poor guy. Whatever happened to for richer or for poorer?
misha: 5 happy happy hugs for you!!!
Yes, mishmish, you have the correct idea! Must be happy always!
**********
l b: 3 answered hugs for you!!
I hope I never have to choose... *shudders*
**********
may: 1 wondering hug for you!
Whatever floats her boat, hor? But for me I couldn't do that. Don't think so.

angel: I used to think they only existed in movies but sadly they are real...

giddy tiger: I agree with all you said. The saddest part is she claims to be a Christian. *shakes head*
wah.. she never treasures what she has. Can someone slaps her????
Out of the desires of the heart, the mouth speaketh
Very true indeed...
I hope there are still nice girls who don't go all gaa-gaa over money too much, and would appreciate her bf/hubby above anything else. Such traditionalist, me. Anyway, tell me if you know any (who're not taken, duh), and tell 'em don't give up on the old-fashioned guys. There're still some around. Hahaha!
i guess the husband will be very hard if he heard what his wife had said...
*shake head*
aiyoo! if me, i sure choose both. :D aiya, got both why wanna choose only 1 right? :D
Well, I guess different people look for different things. Although if the guy can afford to buy a nice condo in Kiara and a big car for her, what else does she want? A bungalow in Kenny Hills?!
chen: That's what I thought so too. She is so lucky, but still... oh, I want to slap her everyday, even though that's not very Christian of me. *blush*
**********
zewt: I think it is 100% true in her case especially. LOL!
**********
narrowband: Dear nb, I am one of those nice girls. *grin* That is why I cannot stand people like that. Traditionalist is good. As long as you don't go all domineering male, that is. Heh. I'll spread the word that you're available!
**********
leonard: 0.0 ??? Hard? Or do you mean hurt? Hehehe. Can't really imagine a guy getting turned on by his wife preferring money over him. So I guess you mean hurt. I wonder if the husband knows all of this? I'm not going to tell him...
*joins leonard in shaking head*
**********
ehon: Wahhh... you greedy fella! One not enough, must have both ah? Tsk tsk tsk. LOL!
What if I said you can only choose one? Hehehe.
**********
pink elle: That is exactly what she wants, I think! She's very envious of anyone who has more / better / nicer things than her in life. Like this she will never be content with what she has...
There is also a saying, one man's meat is another man's poison! So, different people have different wants. Nothing wrong.
However, to me, I just wanna make sure that I don't make a choice that I will regret later.
And, some people just like to say nonsense, but they just don't mean it at all.....
healy: Hi and welcome to my blog!
I agree with you that one man's meat is another man's poison and what suits me would probably not suit her.
But still, to say such things... and I do believe that she means it. Very much so. :o)
Wahh!! Hahahaha!! That is not necessary - lest I'll be known as M'sia's most desperate blogger!! *faints* Just spread the message "don't give up on old-fashioned guys" would do! :P
narrowband: I think the title would be M'sia's most eligible bachelor? Hehehe...
