    do you want to marry for love or love of money.

    he is working and doing his best maybe get your rich parents to support him if they are so concerned.

    The man is rich in GOD and that is enough for him. If you can't stand beside him and support him, then yes you should move on. There are a lot of women that wish that they could find a hard working man. He is helping you with your education and you want to talk about him being poor, what do you want in a man. He has started his OWN construction business and in time God willing will be able to have and so the things that he wants for himself and his woman. So if you think that he is poor and you want more, don't hold him back MOVE on and let him find a woman that wants to support him.

    Sure you can marry a poor guy, but its all about what you want in your life and future. Can you picture yourself living in a trailer park? can you see yourself driving a used mini van? do you like living pay check to pay check? are you ok with over draft fees from your bank and having the bills late? If you answered yes to these questions then marry the guy. But you also claim he works? I dont get that? If hes working how poor can he be? I mean I guess its all about what you want out of life, theirs lots of guys who work construction and make alot of money and then theirs some who are only temp workers and get laid off alot. Do follow what your family says, cause they only want what is best for you! They know, believe me I dont want my daughter to marry some guy who cant support my daughter, and who cant pay the bills.

    Love counts on early stages of relation but it is useless after years of seeing ur kids not be able to get what u want to give them, living in need.

    In another hand if he is hardworking and ambitious, this is a right time to support him and motivate him, b/w u two success worth more than if u join him after he reached it by himself.

    Good luck!

    Love is unconditional,if you can see that he is a responsible man and you love him then fight for him,be his partner in achieving his dreams,pray for his success,love conquers everything through the help of a faithful prayer.What's the sense of having a handsome fiancee and super duper rich if there is no Love at all......

    Whoever heard of poor people being happy?!?

    It's important to him to have your full support at this time after all that he has done for you. Are you going to be there for him or just looking for financial security above love?

    if he's working hard he is probably going to eventually end up with a better job, how hard you work often tends to make you better in this world then if your a progidy at one proffession. I'd say don't get married to him yet but stick beside him and become his pillar of support so he has a reason to go get educated better. Also if you've found a man who respects you and treats you well you've found a jewel, stick with him if you like him back :).

    what a question, if you really love this guy, then go for it.unless it's just the money your interested in,when my hubby and i got married we were really poor ,now 31 year's and 6 fantastic children later, were still poor, but together, and happy

    You should follow your heart.......he helps your education now, then when you get your degree, it's your turn to help him out to get him educated, if he wants higher education for better career. Life is not only taking but giving.

    Your family needs to mind their own damn business!

    Who do they think they are to judge someone, just because of their money!

    Does it make him less a person because he don't have alot of money?????????

    I guess your family would rather you marry someone rich as hell, and beats the sh it out of you every other day!!!!!!!

    You should be ashamed of yourself for questioning"Should you dump him"!!!!!!!

    LOVE IS LOVE, and I don't care how damn much money you have!!!!
