Make your own damn $500k per year.

+1, so gross. make your own money OP. As has been stated ad nauseum, no man, including a wealthy one, is interested in gold diggers.

Whatever you say. I went to law school for my MRS and am happily married to a partner now.

Good for you, I also went to law school, not for my MRS, and like most of my friends, I make plenty of my own money and so does my DH. That's assuming you're real because I have never heard anyone say they went to law school for their "MRS" IRL.

What is an MRS?

NP- my husband makes seven figures. I always laugh because I married him for love and never saw that coming. I would love him as the same if he made 60k a year. OP, if you're real, marry for love and work hard to build a life together.

Does he look and act like bezos?

Do you think all men making over 1 million a year look and act like bezos? Really? All of them?

Your expectations are ridiculous.

Disagree. I wanted the same and found it easily at 32 when I moved back to DC from LA. This area is one of the wealthiest regions in the US, and filled with slightly nerdy men (the best) who might not have had as much success with the ladies. It’s the perfect age and area for OP to meet a high-earner looking to settle down.

Try to use your alumni networks to find social events, OP. I know a few women who met their lawyer husbands at alumni happy hours and many through friends of friends.

Yeah, well you're gross. Stand on your own two feet. Barf.

If you were sexy enough or charming enough for a high status "rich guy" your social and family orbit would have set you up with one over the last 10 years. Take a hint, sweetie.

A lot of lawyer husbands in DC are feds…and they top out at 160k. There are not many men at all making 500k+ that OP wants.

Surgeon. You can easily find a hospital job now with minimal education requirements

I am divorced and dating a surgeon. He does not want to settle down and he only dates attractive women….not Lena Dunham types.

lol and good luck if anyone thinks the people with entry-level hospital jobs interact a lot with surgeons!

Guys making ok bank at 28, 29, 30 may not be considered rich until their 40s. Those guys married women making the same or more then them by 30.

So yeah, if you aren’t successful yourself, forget it.

I work part time as a biglaw counsel and raise our beautiful children. There is nothing wrong, at all, with wanting a man who can fund a comfortable lifestyle. And I think we should stop lying to women and telling them it is wrong.

Surgeons are notoriously sociopathic/narcissistic.

I am well aware (family full of doctors). I only mentioned it because someone suggested a surgeon for OP. I don’t recommend that profession for a spouse for anyone who wants to get married and have kids. I am not remarrying or having more kids or cohabitating, so it is fine for me.

I think there is a lot of truth to this. This is not 30 years ago.

Become a litigation paralegal, get on a big trial, one that will last for a couple of years preferably, located in another town, so the entire trial team has to stay in the same hotel, cozy up to one of the partners, he probably won’t be single so you have to be okay with busting up a family, anyway, laugh a lot and appear to be very light hearted, clever but not too bright, give it a few months, sleep with him, rinsed repeat until he falls “in love” with you.

Make doe eyes at him. If the trial goes in for more than 6 months you are golden, and will be married as soon as the ink dries in the divorce papers. I’ve never done this myself, but have witnessed it over and over again, so while I might be short in the details I can tell you that it happens an awful lot.

Of course you will have to spend the rest of your days looking over your shoulder, because well that’s just the way it goes.

I don't know why but this post made me LOL. Most of these rich men are already married and yes the woman looking, young or not, age doesn't really matter at this point, will certainly be busting up a relationship or marriage with kids.

This is the golden ticket. How to snag a rich married litigator 101.

The rich ones be slightly older. They likely are single with no kids. They have been working really hard in the 20s and early 30s and have a plan. What are you going to bring to the table? Are you beautiful? Are you also in their industry somehow? How will you meet? It won’t be by being on the serving staff at their big work function dinner.
