[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the responders have keyed in on the "let" and the age. But what I find equally as troublesome is OP's focus on current earning and to a lesser extent future earning potential. What matters in a marriage is whether the other person is a decent human being and they are compatible. The focus on finances is wrongheaded. And it is a particularly dumb thing to focus on when the margin we are talking about here is stupid. OP's "six figure" child could be making 110K at 23 and clearly has no secondary degree. The potential spouse is going to have a PHD that most likely comes with a ton of earning potential, notwithstanding some loans. [/quote] Lol at PhD and earning potential. [/quote] +100[/quote]
