why is it bad to want a rich husband?

[Anonymous]

It's a smart choice to make.

Guy here, its not bad. When a person is looking for a relationship there should be no shame in looking for your ideal or someone who meets hour needs, whatever those may be.

If you want a guy who's good looking, funny, rich, big D, whatever - ultimately you have to be in the relationship with them. So who cares what other people think?

It's neither bad nor good, but not a particularly smart choice.

He could divorce you without alimony after years of being the stay at home wife and then where would you be? Or die, and you'd find out that he'd left all his money to someone else. Things like that do happen.

Most people factor in earning potential in their decision to marry, but love and a similar approach to life are usually given more weight.

There's nothing bad about wanting a rich husband, however using his financial status as the dominant criteria is what's bad. What you want to look for is long-term compatibility otherwise, you'll end up another divorce statistic. If you end up being a good match with long-term potential with someone who is rich, that's a bonus.

It's not. People are just jealous they didn't think of it. I roll my eyes every time a woman says, ugh! Why can't I stay home???

Yes, because most women "didn't think of it."

Don't worry, honey, you'll be replaced soon enough.

This is exactly right. If it's all you care about it's at worst essentially prostitution, at best providing a trophy (assuming he's as shallow as you are).

They usually cheat sooner than later.

OP are you the poster who doesn't respect her 70 k husband?
I kind of get the feeling you are.

It's not bad but make sure he has other good qualities. Men with money will have more women vying for their attention so make sure he is the faithful type. I work with several high paid men and I know several who sleep around. Broke men cheat too. But it seems that some men with money feel it's an entitlement to whore around.

Also relevant to note OP's husband is 26.

This. I am relatively wealthy, and many of the wealthy men I see in my circles cheat or attempt to cheat.

But sure, money makes other things in life easier. I wouldn't think it a good idea to only look for rich men, but all else being equal, money helps.
