Money matters in love?

I have often wondered how many people would be with or without their partners if their financial status got a landslide shake and there was no hope of ever restoring it.What if God could make us see our future ,and you would know how well off  your potential mate would be in 10-20 years..or how financially crippled the partner would be.Would you still chose them.Often we say money doesn't matter in love,but doesn't it really? Why is it that parents often ask about the job tittle of a partner.Why is it that some people will discourage a woman from marrying a man who earns less than her.Why is it that there is a tendency for certain potential suitors to be magnets while others are overlooked despite their good character and all..I think it has something to do with the perceived potential of being able to bring in the dollar somehow...anyway its just a thought .
Like  Dolly Parton sings 

''And how I wish that love Was all wed need to live
What a life wed have Cause Ive got so much to give
But ya know I feel so sad Down inside my heart
That the dollar sign Should be keepin us apart

But you know we cant Live on dreams alone

Got to pay the rent So I must leave you all alone'' D Parton
