This is partially the reason for the break with rome, he had spent vast ammounts of his inherited wealth that had been built up by his father on wars with France, and "partys", he knew that by breaking with Rome he would be able to claim the churches wealth + the submission of clergy act was another way for him to be able to claim said wealth. But other factors need to be taken into account, the Anne Boleyn love/lust angle. His conscience - leviticas 20:21 If a man marries his brother's wife, they shall die childless. He has done a ritually unclean thing and has disgraced his brother"
however he reverted to the Hebrew version which specified sons rather than daughters.
Also, to be taken into consideration is Anne's political influences and the rise of anti-clericalism And Anne showing him books which swayed Henrys train of thought towards an idea of a church of England.

Two thirds of seized lands were sold to the laity and money was used to fight wars against France. Priceless ecclesiastical treasures were destroyed in obscene acts of vandalism.

Henry had spent all his late fathers (king Henry VII) money on expensive wars with france, he could not afford his big parties he was famous for.
During the split with rome Henry closed down all the monastries, he took their golds and riches and sold the land they were built upon. Henry once more was extremely rich and could spend his money on fine clothes, big parties and expensive food.
