I do not make good money due to poor decision making regarding my college major and subsequent work in the non-profit sector. I am not particularly ambitious or talented at climbing the corporate ladder so I always knew I wanted to marry a rich guy so I can have a better quality of life. The problem is, I can’t seem to attract well-to-do men. All my boyfriends have been the free-spirited, artistically inclined. One was trained as an engineer but preferred to work as a fitness instructor and the other had a graduate degree in liberal arts but was starting his own business.
I know what I want. I want someone ambitious and no nonsense who wants a comfortable upper middle class life. I want to be his wife and raise our kids while happily working a less stressful job or working on my passion projects. What do I bring to the table? I’m reasonably pretty, nice and a good home maker. I also love children and sex. I am in my mid thirties. Please help! |

| Mom here. I have counseled my over achieving high earner of a son never to marry someone like you. His wife needs to pull her weight. |

Haha, by having some overbearing mom weighing in like this tells me he likely has mommy issues, and predators like OP will eat him like cake. |

Assuming you aren't a troll...
You need to go after someone at least 15 years older than you. |

Starting a business is a good to be rich, way better than being an engineer (outside FAANG) |

| If you’re in your mid 30s, you have to go for the guys in their late 40s or 50s who are once divorced. |

| You're unhappy with yourself. Money isn't going to fix that. Learn to be at peace with your choices and find joy in the world. The rest will take care of itself. |

Mid 30s is way way too late to enact this plan. You need divorcee with grown kids and maybe table the idea of having your own kids. |

Go to Starbucks in rich neighborhoods. Make casual conversation with guys older than you that are less attractive.
By sincere. |

I have a bunch of single male friends in your age range who are well-off (I'm similar, but happily married). None of them are looking for a low-ambition wife who is just pretty and brings nothing to the table. You say you like sex and having children. Well, just about every woman loves children and most women love sex (at least during the dating phase).
My theory is that these guys would feel the other guys in our group would look down on him if he's just getting a "trophy" wife. |

OP, if you want kids you are too late. You just don't bring that much to the table. . No shallow rich guy who is still young enough to want kids is going to marry and fully support a pretty, nice 35 y/o when he can have a knock out 25 y/o.
If you are will to marry a 55 or 65 y/o who is tired of the dating scene, agree to no kids, and put up with his children who will be your age and hate you, then you might find someone. But don't expect to inherit much when he dies. That will go to his kids. Also, instead of "passion projects" you will be his caregiver in 10-15 years. Are you ok with that? Where have you tried to meet men? What about a match maker? Personally, I would meet with a financial planner. Or go back to school for a career that pays better. Save and don't have kids, they are expensive. |
