How To Marry a Millionaire
85Finances, taxes and managing money have never been my strong point. To be honest my only knowledge about money is how to spend it and enjoy it. Having to write about finances has been a great challenge, I have never filled in a tax form by myself, I don’t do any investments and as I mentioned before, any money in my account seems to disappear at the speed of light. So what is my best advice to manage your finances? Easy… Marry a Millionaire!
You must be asking yourself how? That is not possible. But if you take it as a challenge, I can assure you that it is the easiest of things to do. The world is a constant war, so like in wars, you just need to have a tactic and use it. Remember to have fun in the chase, enjoy the battle and you will end up winning the war.

Check here The richest men of the world for 2008. By FORBES,and how they made their fortunes.
Here are a few tips to get you started on the hunt:
1) Go to the “right places”. No offence but sitting in your living room watching romantic movies will never get you a man, never mind a millionaire! The best places I found to meet the right people are London, Marbella (Spain), Paris and the Alps.
2) Once you have chosen your target town I’d suggest you start doing some research and go to the top places. You don’t even need to spend a fortune doing this. Places where you can find your millionaire include: good restaurants, fashionable discos, art galleries, museums, the hippodrome, casinos, etc. Get to be known in these places by the right people, and soon you will make friends who will invite you to spend an afternoon at the horse-races, for example, without having to spend a penny. Mixing with the right crowd allows you entrance to the top places. I have a friend who went to boarding school in London but her family lost all their money. She continued socialising with her school friends who were always inviting her (expenses paid) to fancy holidays. Because she continued living as she was used to, surrounded by wealth and attention, she never lacked for anything. Now she is happily married to a very wealthy and influencial Londoner.
3) Do some research about the men available. Forget about the married ones, those too young (they only want to have fun with no commitment) and the too old (they cannot be bothered getting married again). This leaves you with a short list, so now learn a bit about them, their interests, hobbies, the places they frequent, their friends. This is war and you need to be sure about the tactics you are going to use.
4) Rule number one if you want to get married is: Do not look as if you want to get married. There is nothing scarier for a man than a woman desperate to settle down and cut off his freedom. Avoid the marriage subject.
5) Acquire expensive tastes. Even if you cannot afford it, learn to identify a Chanel from a Jean Paul Gaultier just as well as a Picasso from a Reuben’s.
6) Learn about perfumes, it is very flattering for a man when you can identify his personal scent.

7) Learn to bluff your way. Be able to talk about anything, wines, whisky, cheese, stock markets, horses, architecture, art, anything. You don’t need to be an expert, just learn enough to bluff a little bit. After all “your target” does not want to talk all night about the stock market with you, but it would help if you understand what he is talking about and you can come up with a few clever comments.
8) Do not look too interested in money. No one wants to go out with a gold-digger, at least not past a first date.
9) Hold your jaws tight and do not look amazed when he spends money on you. You are not for sale. His displays of money do not surprise you.
10) NEVER ask for presents or money. NEVER.

11) Learn how to behave appropriately according to where you go. You can eat a hamburger with your hands in Mac Donalds, but if you are dining in a 5 star restaurant you are expected at least to know how and when to use the cutlery and glasses in front of you. In Peru and France we have etiquette schools where children/adults can go to learn in a few classes the basics of etiquette. If you cannot afford one of these schools, I am sure that you can at least find a book about it in your local library.
12) Look your best. Enhance your beauty. You do not need to be a Miss World to attract a millionaire, but you need to take care of yourself so he feels proud of taking you places with him.
13) Be mysterious. There is no reason why you need to tell the story of your live to your “target”. Most men are not very keen in listening to long stories anyway, and the chances are that your future husband is too busy with his business to sit next to you and console you for your misfortunes. Remember you are looking for a wealthy husband, not a personal therapist.
14) Listen to him. Listen attentively even to his most boring business stories. While he “bores you” with his stories, offer him a relaxing massage (you can learn this in books or online). If you do it right, soon he’ll forget about his troubles and change the subject.

15) Cook for him. Yes, cook him a meal. Men who live alone are use to eating in restaurants or having a cook. If you cook for him not only will you show him that you care for him, but a home made meal will be a real treat.
16) Be fluffy. Give him the impression that you need to be loved and protected.
17) Do not criticise his friends or family. If you don’t like them you can say it but do not go around criticising them.
18) Spoil him, treat him nicely; the way you want him to treat you.
19) Never feel “intimidated”, not by his money, his friends, or the places he takes you to. Think instead that you deserve it all and more.
20) Fall in love and enjoy yourself. Do not forget to invite me to the wedding –all expenses paid of course ;)

Im laughing all the way through this and thinking, hmmmm, which one of these tactics should I start with?
Princessa, I have a question if you dont mind. You wrote 4): "Do not look as if you want to get married."
Can you share tips on how not to look like that?
Great tips, Princessa! What a terrific resource and great idea!
My goals in being with a man are different, I wanted to attract a spiritual, loving man at some point in my life, and I did; I attracted a beautiful man, who is financially secure, but not a millionare by any means. The reason for this, is I was in a relationship for 7 years with a millionare (that's the last ex) who used money to control and intimidate. However, one of my girlfriends met a very wealthy man, who treats her with much love and respect and she in turn treats him the same way; she is grateful to finally have attracted happiness while nearing her 40's. Having money does add to the comfort and aesthetic beauty in one's life. :)
Your tips are great.... never,ever ask for money, or look desperate to get married. I agree!
This is very amusing - it reminds me of the movie of the same name with Marilyn Monroe. :D
Excellent hub, I just wish I had read it when I was still single :)
gee girl, guess we better be careful of you and one doesn't have to be a millionaire to fall into this trap - you seem to know most of the moves - truly amazing - better you write one of the gents as well....
Nice article. I recollected a joke after reading this. I don't know if this joke is popular in the other parts of the world but it is popular in my area.
Question : How To Marry a Millionaire ?!
Answer : Simple. Marry a billionaire. He will surely become millionaire after marrying you. ;)
This is why I love Princessa. I need to search some millionaire girl. HHUUMMMM !
Dottie1 and Shirley: Thanks; everybody has a special knowledge, don't we?
newsworthy: One should never look desperate to get married. How to achieve the "I don't care" attitude? I should write a hub about it LOL.
1) For a start, you never bring the subject to discussion.
2) Avoid other people’s questions about what do you expect of your relationship. Your answer will manage its way to his ears and he’ll run away if he knows you are on the hunt for a husband.
3) Don’t ask him where your relationship is going.
In short, let HIM bring the subject to you, and do not look too enthusiastic when he mentions it. He needs to think it is his idea. For some weird reason, there are men who prefer to tie the knot with a woman who “does not want to” because she loves her freedom. The more unattainable you seem to be, the more he will want you... crazy :)
Its just as well I'm not a millionaire...yet! other wise i would be studying these tips very carefully to see what I'm in for! lol!:D
PS...Don'T forget to invite me to the wedding too!
:)
Violet : Thanks for the comment, I am happy to hear that you found happiness with a good man. I would certainly never recommend anyone to go into an abusive relationship regardless of the money or financial security. Respect and love are above all that.
Cris: I loved that film!
Misty: LOL never too late J
Affiliater: I’ll take that as a compliment, thanks ;-)
Yokalyan: That’s a good one LOL
Guidebaba: the tips apply to both men and women, so… are you ready to go hunting?
Compu-smart: Nice to "see you" around here. You know very well that millonaire or not you are very much loved :)
Thanks for your advice on not looking like you want to marry a millionaire.
Not asking, not telling and not talking about it must keep him in suspense.
Have you ever heard the expression "curiousity killed the cat"?
I think you next hub should be "How to avoid meeting woman that only want your money. Personally I find this hub tacky and shows are real lack of class. Dont follow these tips ladies, us men can smell a gold digger from a mile away. Shame on you Princessa
newsworthy : Yup! you got it :)
Dwrightie : Now, that is a good idea for a hub :) but I don't think it would get many readers... there are not that many men out there with enough money to worry about it and the few who DO have the money don't really worry about it anyway ;-)
That's interesting. I wonder if this is how all women think?
schultzy : not really... most woman dream about marying a wealthy man but then they fall in love and nothing matters, woman are romantics at heart :)
I wish I had these tips twenty years ago. LOL
Princessa- Those are some good tips. But seriously I will feel more satisfied if I am contributing to make my husband a millionaire instead of inheriting it. Btw a small joke for you. A woman proclaimed at a party that "after my husband married me he became a millionaire" then the other woman started congratulating her for being the lucky charm. Then the husband dropped by and said "Darling you forgot to mention that I was a billionaire before marriage"..LOL
I reckon it's easier to marry a man who is heading that way rather than already there!
This has to be the biggest joke of the day.
anjalichugh : one is never too late LOL
countrywomen : That is a very good point I had not think about. Interesting idea.
LondonGirl : You need a good eye or economic knowledge to identify the man who is going to be a millionaire…
alexpapa : LOL Life is a joke isn’t it ?
First of all most millionaires are fully prepared for your little tips here and can see right through them. Second of all most of them are not right. The sheer fact that is why you are interested in him will show through whatever you do on the outside. And yes, I do know what I am talking about since I turned down a proposal from a millionaire. He only liked me because I did not want his money. I only liked being his friend, and that is how we remained.But good hub idea to get some readers to your page!
My mother married a very poor young man, who earned a lot less than she did as a teacher.
She obviously had a good eye (-: But I doubt it was deliberate!
Instead of trying to catch a millionaire fish it would be better to earn a million and be proud for that achievement. Do you have tips on 'How To become a Millionaire' ?
This is Cool... However, Being a Millionaire or marrying one is never part of my Dreams.
Princessa…your theory on how to catch a millionaire seems to be a “Catch 22”…If one snared a millionaire husband by using your tactics and proceeded to write such a revealing transparent hub as yours, one’s marriage might be on thin ice…on the other hand, if one doesn’t have a millionaire husband, then what qualifies one to offer up such a sneaky and deceitful recipe.
simply stunning even though it won't work.
Excellent hub, I just wish I had read it when I was still single :)
Do you have tips on How to become a Millionaire ?
So true about the Alps...! Great hub! Be mysterious is my favorite! :)
These tips are useful even if you are not looking for a millionaire. You can use them for anything...want to date a punk rocker, learn about the music, go to the right clubs, want to date an artist, do the same etc. I think it's all about who you are looking for and what's more important to you. If you hang around blue collar bars, don't be surprised if all the men you seem to come across are blue collar!
Thanks you for information.
I enjoyed reading your article especially watching the video.. I really found it very amusing and funny, but at the same time very interesting.. hmmm
Thanks every one for your comments FOR and AGAINST, it is interesting to hear other people's opinions on the subject.
Wow this is really amazing article, thanks for sharing this with us. I really was enjoy reading this article.
I enjoyed reading this article! thanks! Probably this is every girls dream.. and is the most desired task in their life to acomplish in order to get rich easily...lol
Wow What a terrific subject and ideas. Hope somebody would get a millaniore by using these. But its very interesting really. Where do you get such ideas?
I'd far rather become a millionaire myself rather than marry one!
ameliehub: thanks, I hope it is useful to someone. I got the idea trying to write an article about tips for managing your finances. It made me realize that I knew nothing about managing money, so I came up with this based on my own and friends experiences.
LondonGirl: I do agree that making a fortune by yourself would be better. The question is how do you do it?
Have you ever heard the saying that "a rich man is either a scoundral or heir to one"? I don't believe it is possible to become a millionaire without stepping on other people and ruining lives. Who would want to be guilty of that (or marry someone who is)? Obviously if someone's got a million dollars, then there are people out there starving to death because of it. Makes me sick, really.
I love this hub! Very catchy and edgy! I want to be a milliionaire without marrying one, but thats probably not in the cards. hee hee.
"I don't believe it is possible to become a millionaire without stepping on other people and ruining lives. Who would want to be guilty of that (or marry someone who is)?"
I don't think that's right. Assuming you mean millionairre in terms of assets and investments, I know several, and none are barstewards.
Yeah but they have a much greater share of wealth than they should and therefore contribute to misery indirectly. For every rich person on this planet there are hundreds of children starving to death in the so called "Global South" because everything is connected and money and resources are finite.
I don't think being a millionaire is the big deal it used to be. Being a billionaire is the new millionaire, if you get my meaning. Still, you can have assets and be a good person and philanthropist. Not all rich people are bad.
I loved this hub and the light=hearted tone. Especially the don't look like you want to get married advice. That's true of all single people looking for a date/mate. There's nothing more offputting than hunger/over-eagerness.
Now I realize my mistake. I could never pull off being "fluffy." Darn!
Being a bloke, I found this to be very entertaining, I have to agree with GypsyZills as far as wealth distribution goes. We have too much money in too few hands and it is a disgrace when children are dying of hunger while we are gorging ourselves because we are bored.
My question is, how do I as a guy marry a female millionaire? I see all these things about people getting rich online while I'm in a job where I'm underpaid. What I would like to do is marry a rich female so I can get ahold of her money. I've thought if I can't find somebody who loves me, I might as well marry for money.
It is interesting post, trhanks you.
It is interesting post, trhanks you. It is useful for me.
Ahahahaa that's hilarious :)). I thought this was supposed to be a women's secret, but i guess i was wrong. When they ask a woman "Did you marry him for the money?" she will always reply "No, I love him." Guess that's not always true, huh?
agnesgriffins: Glad you enjoyed it.
Wallpaper Queen: I think it is more of a stereotype, women are not that desperate, they might think about it in a « Cinderella » type of way ; but at the end it is love that counts for most women.
GypsyZills : I think there are lots of people with money that DO help others. I do agree on the inequality of wealth but that is an issue that should affect everyone not just the millionaires.
Cailin Gallagher: don’t we all!
LondonGirl : yes, you are right. There are lots of people who have earned their money through hard work and they help others I’ve just wrote about one of them, Shakira: http://hubpages.com/hub/Shakira-a-Humanitarian-sin She uses her money and fame to help the children in her country.
Mighty Mom: Looking desperate to get married is the worst mistake single people can make when dating someone.
Earnesthub: It is always a disgrace to have children dying with hunger or not being educated, or sleeping in the streets. We should all take some responsibility in the issue and not just try to blame a few people.
jbickham429: just follow the same advice... except for being "fluffy".
thejimster: well... now you know "the truth" :)
Princessa
Enjoyed reading your hub, but a million is not enough. I have more, so, will you marry me?
Enjoyed your hub! Its greats! I wish there were men here like that! It would be great to find love and be financially stable. Some people are just lucky. Keep up the good work!
You really remind me of my cousin... you have the same kind of attitude. She also loves money only to spend and enjoy! This is a nice tips for other people whom are like you... Actually you almost have the same tips when she encourage me to marry a millioner also... hehehe (I guess same feathers flocks together huh?) But seriously i like thi hub, love to share to my fellow friends...
Jellyrug: You are right, a million is not enough. Thanks for the offer but I am already happily married.
Alicia8657 : Yes it would be like winning the lottery if one can manage to find love, respect and financial stability all with one person.
venus_smileygal: Thanks for stopping to comment and to share it with your friends. Good luck and lots of fun :)
GypsyZills said, "I don't believe it is possible to become a millionaire without stepping on other people and ruining lives. Who would want to be guilty of that (or marry someone who is)?"
Wow, that is so sad. I know one man in paticular who is very kind, generous, and caring. And yes, he is a millionaire. Because of him I have changed careers and I am on my way to becoming a millionaire. Every one of my customers benefit financially far more than I do because of the transaction. There are good people who are rich and there are bad people who are poor. To have a negative view of all rich people is just as bad as having a bad view of people based on their skin color. It's their character that counts, not their money.
And rather than marrying a millionaire (not that there's anything wrong with that) why not Be a millionaire?
LondonGirl said nothing of the sort. She quoted it from another comment, and disagreed with it!
well what i shoud say will be egger to try this?but what if it doesnt work out?
lol just joking...well nice work out .....
I wish I could find a millionaire to marry. I don't think it works like that for me though.
One beautiul point about these points is that they can be applied not only for millionaires, but any guy on whom you have a crush.
The toughest point is in approaching him, drawing his attention to you, that is the most difficult part for women finding a guy.
Steve : Thanks for the comment. I agree with your view.
Britneydavidson: even if it doesn’t work, it is the fan that counts isn’t it?
Orionsky: You never know until you try!
Karmadir: yes, you can try these tips with any person you want to approach. I never thought the “drawing attention” to yourself the most difficult part… I always thought that was the easiest part of the game. Being taken seriously, now, that is difficult. Good luck and thanks for stopping to read and comment.
Learn many new and interesting, and very useful. The thing is that I also have a daughter that is in search of her prince. Naturally, as a father, I would like that to my daughter finally has found happiness ... Oh probably would pah-pah ....
Princessa, Great advice, now how to get my daughter to take it??!! I guess to start I can send her a link. Thanks for the great advice and hub! I really enjoyed this!
barit: I hope your daughter does well. However, always remember that happiness is better than any amount of money...
k@ri: Thanks for stopping to comment. Yes, maybe you should send a link to your daughter... at the very least it might give her a laugh :)
This is pathetic. What a scheming, ugly way to determine how and who you'll spend your life with. Or at least rip off... It's ok though, because in the end, I believe, folks who take tactics like this in life end up with what they deserve.
hey its really nice tips can you give some to me too i mean any tips for boys any tips ?
Justin: what a shame that you seem to have been stripped of any sense of humour!
jitz: the above should work for both men and women :)
