* ''Film/HandsAcrossTheTable'': {{Justified}} because it makes sense why Regi wants to marry a rich guy for security during the time of the Depression, and watching her parents' marriage dissolve due to being poor.[[GenderInverted Ted]], on the other hand, has been wrecked by the Depression, so having money again is his number one goal as well.

* Burke's fiancee[[note]]played by a pre-Morticia Creator/CarolynJones[[/note]] in ''Film/HouseOfWax1953''. {{Justified}} in that during TheGildedAge (the film's time setting) this was perceived as totally normal.

* ''Film/TheMoreTheMerrier": Downplayed with Connie Milligan. She's engaged to marry [[DisposableFiance Charles J. Pendergast]], a Washington bureaucrat 16 years her senior. As a successful and influential man, Pendergast will be a much better provider for her and their future children than her own low-income father was for her and her mother.

* ''Film/BeyondTheValleyOfTheDolls'': Lance is a gigolo mainly motivated by dough, and dates Kelly so he can get his hands on her inheritance. When she tells him she's not that interested in the money and told her aunt to keep it all to herself, he rushes to convince her that she is at least owed something.
