gold diggers
Marry for money
Gold diggers is the plural of gold digger.
The original sense—someone who digs for gold—has been eclipsed by the figurative meaning: a person, typically a woman, who pursues romantic relationships primarily for financial gain.
She's just a gold digger after his money.
The term is dismissive, implying mercenary motives behind apparent affection.
