My grandfather had 2 aunts that did this, they were in England but one was a broke Bulgarian prince and the other was a French viscount; both titles were worthless but the viscount and his wife travelled the world (I have 5th cousins that I've never met that would have inherited the title if not for the French not really doing inherited titles for the most part)

I like watching these videos mostly for entertainment Some of these information and visuals used are not even that accurate But they're entertaining nonetheless

Comment from : Blue Faery

The Vanderbilt women didn't receive nearly the amount of money as did their brothers The sons got between 55 and 5 million dollars each The 5 daughters receive 50 thousand and were married off for a title To say that these marriages were draining the wealth in the US is really misleading at least with this particular family
Comment from : Daniel Claeys

Sorry, but those British noblemen needed to start their own enterprises too, instead of sitting on their arses, waiting for hardworking American industrialists to ship off their daughters + American money What’s crazy is that they would scoff at the hardworking rich mercantile families of Europe However, they were hungry for hardworking mercantile American money What a bunch of lazy hypocrites and lazy bums!

What are we talking about here? These are all the same people a group of them just cross the ocean to another's people land made themselves rich and cross back over to live the aristocratic life, but People of the United States are all Europeans so they just craving the life they left in Europe Presently the United States is 200 plus years old at that time the United States was barely 100 years old so the Europeans that made up the United States wanted to flash their new found wealth

I Thought Female Was Greedy For Money 💰 These Men Take The Cake 🎂 🤔 All I Can Say Is WOW
Comment from : Carrie Tezeno

yeah sell your daughter into a lifetime of unhappiness just for a title that was (without your money) worthless Though the money (you already had) is worth something Is there anything in history that was the opposite (a son being wedding off to hoist the family into another level of society), or was it exclusively women who were deemed extensions of material wealth?

You can take the Brit to the US but you can't take the British out of the Brit
Comment from : No Trend

It’s much worse than the question you posed These women/girls were sold off by their parents/families for a title and their family’s wealth with no regard for their free will or consideration of their happiness These women were treated as actual property which is why some people still have issues with marriage in modern times, and honestly, I don’t blame them for that It actually made me think long & hard when my husband and I were getting married,, and we had to discuss issues that people really shouldn’t have to when they really love each other and are planning a life together

My grandmother has been married 3 times, the first 2 were for love Husband 1 was an abusive alcoholic, husband 2 wound up being our country’s first official serial killer (not USA) Husband 3 was definitely just for convenience since my family’s banking and invention background was now ruined by scandal
Comment from : TheDragonOracle

It really does show how having alot of money does not correlate to common sense…most of the dukes were all penniless due to most of their wealth being tied up in land and houses but no real liquid income…so really all they had was titles and for most rich americans at the turn of the century, having a noble title was the gold standard…

So were the American women who married French men bilingual, or did they have a translator walking around with them until they learned each other's languages?

Comment from : Michelle Todd

I like how all the women in this comments section are acting like they have a moral superiority just because of historical evidence of men also being gold diggers, yet are also saying if they hear a man utter it, it instantly means they're in the wrong even if the person is actually gold digging lmfaobrbrboth men and women can be gold diggers, dunno why you weirdos are so held up on a simple fact
