I married someone 19 years older than myself, and it wasn't for the money, so... I think you cannot presume what her motivations are, unless she told you explicitly she was looking to marry wealth.

[b]And even is she is looking for married comfort, is that such a bad thing? Do you understand the difference there might be to her, to keep doing what she loves, yet have a comfortable life and be "someone's" wife, rather than work all day at something she doesn't want to do but pays the bills?[/b]

This.  I had a number of friends in the NYC non profit space and it was VERY common for them to be married to bankers and law firm lawyers.  Not suggesting they married just for the money, but they were very relieved that they were married to someone who could pay for everything, so that they could do what they loved (or in some instances – so that they could have an easy job that didn’t pay much but allowed them to still say they were lawyers at the cocktail parties; these ones obviously didn’t invest much into the jobs, came and went as they pleased etc. Doesn’t sound like that’s your friend’s case.)[/quote]
