On Marriage and Family Life by John Chrysostom
Let no one marry a woman for her money; such wealth is base and disgraceful. No, by no means let anyone aspire to get rich from his wife. ' Those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.'15 Don't look for great wealth in your wife, and you will find that everything else will go well.
