I'd probably say most people should wait until their late 20's or early 30's.

It's as much about supporting each othen than it is one supporting the other, and it gets more that way every year. Single job homes aren't as feasible anymore unless you're wealthy. It's an expensive world we live in.

If I was president emperor world dictator, i would never let men get married before 30.
For the really mature bright ones, maybe late 20s.

Women are no better than men. We're equally clueless before 30.

I suppose that would depend on your environment.

52% of marriages today end in divorce. The #1 reason for divorce today is money fights and money problems. I have been married 16 years, here's my thoughts. We have always agreed on the religion issue, so no problem there. In-Laws have been an issue from time to time but never something that would ruin our marriage. Just remember, NEVER talk about in-laws in the bedroom. Two great kids here, but yea there are several areas regarding kids that could create big arguments. Money, Up until a year ago we were normal americans. Lots of debt and lots of fights about money. There were several times when I thought it could end because of MONEY! Thankfully, with in the last year we have finally turned it around as we are both on the same page now regarding money we have paid off almost all of our debt and things couldn't be better. But I will NEVER forget the stress debt and bills can put on a marriage. Don't underestimate this when considering your partner. Good Luck!

My wife and I are very lucky -- we agree on many things relating to money and child rearing, etc., so we get along really well. Some of our friends, unfortunately, aren't so lucky. Heck, we know people pulling down 6 figures (combined salary, and remember to adjust for Boston standard of living) who have serious marital problems because their spending habits are fundamentally incompatible. She always wants some new-fangled purse or whatever, and he's a "saver". Or "he always wants the latest video game / new car / electronic doo-dad, and she wants to save for a house". Over and over and over again do we hear about it... And kids are amazingly stressful on a marriage. Whenever I hear stories or (more usually) see a movie or read a book or whatever about a couple that decides to have kids in order to "bring them closer together' or save a marriage, I shake my head in utter amazement. If a marriage isn't strong to begin with, bet your ass that having a kid will seal the deal and finish it for certain. In many ways, they're stress-inducing monsters. ![]()

I think the most important aspect of any relationship is communication. Any other problem that crops up can usually be traced back to a breakdown there.

Rain Man's unsolicited advice.
1. Don't get married until you're 28, and even then, don't do it just because you want to get married. 2. When marrying, pick a spouse that you think would suck the poison out of a snake bite on you no matter where it's at on your body, and even then, ensure that there are some places that she would rather suck than others. 3. Don't introduce the suggestion of a threesome until you've been married for three years, and even then, don't suggest a specific third person. 4. Don't have kids until you've been married for five years, and even then, make sure that you have them with your spouse. 5. Never get so much life insurance that your spouse could retire if you die, and even then, do random food testing once in a while.

I've been married 3 times, so I am not one to give advise on marriage.
