You need to watch Eddie Murphy stand up. He put it all rather nicely. Or find the reply to that women who advertised for a guy from Wall Street.
Basically, they both say that there are plus points and minus points to dating vs marriage. If you get married, you can liken it to buying a house. If you just date them, you are just renting. Both cost money, but in different ways. Regarding price for a bonk. Let's work it out.
Let's say you get married at 30 and die at 80. So 50 years of married bliss.
Let's say you will do it once a month on average over those 50 years. So for 50 quid a pop, that's 384,000 quid. From this it could be suggested that if you have only minimal assets, you might as well get married as you will save money but if your assets are greater than 1mill say. Carry on paying for top quality pousy.
Once a month? Once a month? You 're a machine!!!
