When we talk of finance, there is a lot that goes into it and finance is one of the most common topics that people bring up when discussing marriage and marriage is not a child's play in any way, especially when it comes to relationship and settling down.

Marriage is not for the faint-hearted. For many people who are adults, the question is not just about looking or finding the right person either through prayer as a Christian or physically looking for somebody that match your energy and your aura and everything like that in terms of finance, health, genotype or stuff or things like that.

So the real question is simple. Is finance actually a major reason that some people are not married? The answer might be yes, the answer might be no, depending on how you see it. For some people the answer is yes and the reason is simple.

Money affects almost everything in this life. Even the Bible actually said money is the wheel of evangelism or something like that. There is also this common statement that people used to say that money is the root of all evil.

Actually it is the love of money, not money itself. So a person may feel that they are not ready to marry because they want to have a stable income first, then have enough savings so that they can carry on with the rest of their life, thereby build a solid foundation before committing to a family life. If that is the case, finance becomes more than just a personal concern.

It becomes a deciding factor. When I say deciding factor, I mean everything in the marriage from the beginning to the end starts and ends on finance and money. So finance and money can determine if a marriage will hold or not.

Yes, that is how crazy it is. For others the answer is a capital. They may believe that love, compatibility, maturity and the likes, they are in line with what makes marriage work.

Yes, to an extent we can say that but marriage goes far deep beyond that. While it is very very possible that you will have a marriage that is built on love, compatibility and maturity, that is not enough to carry on in marriage because when you have marriage and the wife comes to ask money for food and stuff like that or the upkeep of the home, it is not love, compatibility and maturity that is going to settle the bill. It is money and that is finance.

Why financial security is important, it does not always have to be the main reason someone remains unmarried. Especially in this our present generation, many people are unmarried because there is no money. Some people are single because they are waiting for the right partner and they want the right partner to be this or that.

They want him to be rich, to have a car, to do this, to do that. All sort of a thing like that. So when this focusing is on personal growth or simply not ready for marriage yet kind of a people, in that case money may be part of the conversation but not the central issue.

What I mean by central issue is that love has its own parts to play and consistently forbearance, perseverance and a lot of understanding goes to play in marriage. But money is still a factor. So it is still hard to ignore much finance influence relationship today.

Many people want to provide for their family but they really don't know much or they don't have much in their hand. But as it is, there is a way out. So many people want to be able to provide for their family and build a life that feels stable.

Others are concerned about the cost of wedding, the housing, taking care of the children, the general living expenses, miscellaneous that you did not plan for. A child can always get sick at any point in time when you did not have one dime or a cent with you and you still have to make way, make provisions for that. At the same time, being unmarried should not always be seen as a problem.

Yes, it shouldn't be a factor when you don't have money and that is why you are unmarried. That should not actually be a factor. Everyone has a different timing in life and we should understand that and priorities differ too.

Circumstances that surround everyone is also different. So for some, finance may be the reason. For others, it may be something else entirely.

The important thing is to be honest about where you are and what you are ready for.

So what do you actually think that is the right thing to do? Finance is a major factor or not?
