People who have more personal wealth -- in the form of a car, say, or a small nest egg -- are more likely to get married than those who have less, according to an analysis of data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. It's further evidence, as if it were needed, that money and marriage are becoming increasingly intertwined in ways that are not yet fully understood. [News media article based on Schneider, Daniel J. "Wealth and the Marital Divide." American Journal of Sociology 117,2 (September 2011): 627-667]
