Do you want more or less?

Do you want more or less?

It's a pretty interesting problem, I think. Of course not the problem alone, but with the context... If you own more, will you want more?

Several days earlier, a friend from Europe asked whether Chinese girls always want to marry someone who have to have car, house, credit card and so on. Do they make it a standard to choose husband? It's hard for me to answer this question. Even harder to defend for the Chinese girls.

I try to explain that the girl that a foreigner might meet would likely to be some ambitious girls from China. The reason is that most of the time only the ambitious Chinese girls would go aboard and the general girls stay where they were born. So as a result, the small part of the ambitious girls could not represent all the Chinese girls. OK. My friend might accept this explanation....

However, what I added after my last word and what my friend replied give me the reason to write this post. I said that as the foreigner might meet the Chinese girls who are in the universities, these girls have better abilities and they own more source than others. When someone own more, they often want even more. I even thought that it's natural. On the contrary, my friend said that's different in his homeland. When a girl, for example a well-educated girl, have more, she may want less because of this.

Actually, this problem is complicate. In my experience, most cases are that what I said just now. The ones who own more want more. Just a small number of people would be the case that when they own more they want less. But most of my experience was in my homeland. What's the case in the world? And why there's the difference.... Maybe we could know about it better later...

PS. Maybe I should added this link here as it's popular on digg.com. http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,22360651-1702,00.html
Maybe it's really a topic we have talked about for centuries.
