If you don't mind the ethical issues, this could be an option.  You could probably find a late thirties/early 40s rich man in an unhappy marriage who you might be able to snag if you "accidentally" get pregnant.  You would likely not want to target a "player" but a geeky engineer type who didn't date much before his marriage.  I know someone who pulled off something similar- she didn't get pregnant but went from being the OW to the DW.[/quote]

Tried this, failed. He was a good guy who would not leave his kids. He was mid 50s. Ended badly for me. [/quote]

The key, according to this extremely dreadful woman I know, is to find one who doesn't have kids but wants them, and is married to a woman who can't/won't have them (or keeps postponing them). It worked well for her because it also provided reasons to marry quickly after his divorce (so they could have a kid soon) which means no real time for him to stop and think about whether this is a good idea after the ink dries on his divorce.

Her DH is kind of an oblivious idiot (obviously) and they are deeply mediocre parents, but he's rich and they get tons of family support so I guess it works out okay.

I honestly feel terrible for people who think and behave this way. I married a man I fell in love with because we cared about each other and liked our life together. We had a kid when we were ready. We are not wealthy but we are far from poor and have pretty much everything we need. I'd feel weird if I jumped through a bunch of calculated hoops to nab a rich guy to build a slightly nicer facsimile of an actually happy family. But you do you.[/quote]
