Do women seriously have salary requirements when dating?

And us wealthy men avoid your kind like the plague.

On a separate but related note — I’m worth a lot and when I used to meet women before I got married I would hide my wealth at all costs.

What does that mean? I’m a single mom who owns a 7000SF home. How should I “hide” my wealth? Should I never invite them over?

No lavish vacations our outings just things regular people do, keep the Ferrari and porsches locked away, never wear stuff like Patek and Audemars etc. and no 7k sqft suburban McMansion. Just come across as a normal person within the realm of normality for the DC area so they don’t think you have absurd levels of wealth.

You literally forego vacations you can afford so that you can date women who can’t afford similar vacations?

I mean- that’s cool, just not a level of partner finding self sacrifice I’m willing to engage in.

I personally do not. I've dated men who had roommates into their forties, men who were on social assistance, men who haven't worked in a decade. That said, I wouldn't marry a man who has significantly less than I do.

I wouldn’t be thrilled if he makes 35k/yr after graduation. UVA cost around 35K/yr, including room and board.

Your son is lucky. I have been working 25 years, have a graduate degree, and do not make 115k. Most people do not have degrees a in computer science. There are entry level law jobs paying 65k in DC. Your son is the exception...not the norm.

I hate to break this to you. There are so many folks with Computer Science and Engineering degrees here in the DMV that are working for Amazon, Oracle, and Google. Just about all of them make over 100+K right out of college. They are dimes and dozens in the DMV.

They are not a dime a dozen. They exist but so do more of others that do not make that straight out of college.

There are so many young folks here at Amazon Web Service (AWS) that make over 100+K.
