[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All women want to marry a man making at least 6 figures but ideally 7+.  Problem is that isn’t most men.  But most women in their 20s will at least try- until reality sets in[/quote]

This doesn’t describe “all” women. I’ve never even fantasized about a man who makes $$$. I want a man who is kind, honest, respectful, and an equal partner. I found that in a man who makes less than 6 figures. Money wouldn’t bring us any more happiness than we already have.[/quote]

Yeah, how many women do you know, PP? Five?

You do realize the majority of people make five figures? Only here on DCUM is that idea somehow unfathomable. Off this site, millions of people live happy lives without worrying about 6 or 7 figure salaries. I make 5 figures as a teacher and I don’t regret my choices at all. I find fulfillment in many things, most of which don’t require money. [/quote]

I was addressing the poster who said all women want somebody who makes 6 or 7 figures. [/quote]

Ok, and if given a choice between a nice handsome making 5 figures and a nice handsome man making 6+ 10/10 women would pick the one making more.  Money makes life easier and gives children better opportunities and advantages.  Women know this. [/quote]

I think it’s pretty rare that anybody is in a situation where two partners equal in literally every respect except income are ready and willing to marry them, but sure maybe if that were the case, in balance, you’d probably pick the person earning more.

But that hypothetical is so extreme that I’m not entirely sure how helpful it is. You could say that about any attribute of a partner (one is slightly funnier, one is slightly cleaner, one is slightly better-educated), and all it tells you is that somebody has a preference, not how important the attribute is.
