NEW YORK, Jan. 21 An online poll conducted by Woman's Day magazine and AOL Body found that three out of four women would rather have money than a hot body.

One question in the poll offered the 6,905 women who participated if they would rather have Jennifer Aniston's bikini body or $1 million, the New York Post reported Monday.

"I'd rather have the money," declared 78 percent of the respondents, while the other 22 percent said they'd like to "look like Jennifer."

Fifty-seven percent said they considered themselves overweight, 30 percent admitted feeling "uncomfortable and ashamed" about their bodies and 37 percent said their fondest wish was "to be thinner."

But having millions of dollars outweighs all of those feeling, according to the magazine's Feb. 12 issue, which hits newsstands Tuesday.
