      Here’s my favorite German boomer humor, because it’s just so crude:

      Shirt which says "Liebe vergeht, Hektar besteht".

      Verbatim translated, it says: Love fades, hectare stays.

      Basically, it’s saying you should marry someone not for love, but rather for how many hectare of farmland they have, because in a long marriage, you’ll supposedly benefit more from the latter.
