Nothing showcases more if your wife is married to you for love or for your money than a bad economy... Protip before proposing to your girl or getting into marriage: 1. Pretend you lost your job and now work a entry level job or just going through some sort of financial hardship. 2. Pretend your car was repo'd (just stick it in storage or park elsewhere). 3. If you use to always go out with, buy gifts, etc for your girlfriend, stop completely. 4. Pretend you sold off your items of high value (just stash in storage or hide in a closet/attic). Keep up this illusion for at least a month and if your girl still loves you and sticks by your side through the pretend hardship, she's a keeper.. However if she grows less interested in you, she grows distant, gets angry over your finances/situation, or worse, she breaks up with you, then you know that your dodging a bullet as she doesn't really love you for you, rather she loves your money and what your money/financial security offers her.
