wow...There's so many variables nowadays. Within our current economy its either: (1) a persons working too much, or (2) not at all. Lack of time and/or communication can, and does place a strain on a relationship. I know that some might disagree but money does place a financial burden on a marriage. For a man, a good time for marriage is when he is ready to be: Priest, Protector, and Provider for his household. A reason why many are waiting longer than previous generations to get married is because many are not as financially secure until later on in their life. Scripture does say however, ["if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion." 1 Cor. 7:9] This doesn't mean that marriage should be pursued recklessly, but marriage does restrain/curb lustful outbreaks. Unfortunately, many relationships don't work out, mine included, but I believe that as long as you select a partner THAT IS CHRISTIAN ALSO and you all remain faithful to the doctrines and tenants of Scripture, and don't let money determine the outcome of the marital bond you should be fine.
