I think people in the West in general get turned off by the idea of marriage. The system is skewed against proper parenting and sides with the women in court. Why should western folks get married when they get sex for free?
As @LarryThePuntite would say its bad investment.
I believe it all depends who you marry most people don't wanna get married young cause they gonna be broke it's better to look for marriage after collage even better if you find someone who also got s degree and a job
Than its no bad investment It would be a bad investment to marry young and rely on benefits
