Oh, I misinterpreted.
In any case, the woman is clearly attempting to exploit the man, otherwise she wouldn't have married him. Why else would she have agreed to marry the guy if not simply for exploitation and the eventual financial payoff? She puts in a few years of rubbing up against Wrinkles McBallshanginglow and then gets oodles of money when he dies, and it's her hope that it's sooner rather than later.
Or at least that's the common scenario.
