I'd have to agree with Corn. I don't think it's about money. I'll admit that my bf makes a hell of a lot more than I do but that's not why he's ambitious. He wants a lot out of life. He wants his own company. He wants to further his education. He doesn't just want to get by. I also love that he has a job he loves (even if I whine that he works all the time). I hope that when I'm finished with school, I have a career that is fulfilling ashis is to him. I can't even fathom how nice it would be to look forward to going to work in the morning.
I don't think I could handle being in a relationship with someone who didn't want a lot out of life. I hope to do a hell of a lot with the time I have and I want someone who is going to enourage and join me on that adventure. I don't just want to slide by in the world or have to rely on someone else.
