I'm sorry, but I have to take Ihateyou's side on marriage.

Just look at the divorce rate. 60% or so last I checked, give or take.

60% odds of one's marriage failing. And for 2nd and 3rd marriages, its even grimmer with it being as high as 75%

And I haven't even mentioned the overwhelming odds that even regional CA's (let alone those at the majors) will earn significantly more than their spouse, tilting the tables against them to an even greater extent in divorce court.

If I had a burning desire to get married, I'd gravitate towards professional women in stable careers who make salaries on par with guys at the majors or more.

I do NOT want a woman I can "provide for", I want one who is an equal partner in crime with me.

YMMV
