[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think some good traits have correlated bad traits.

A kind gentle man may not have the ruthlessness and killer ambition needed to be very financially successful. The lack of competitiveness might be a part of what makes him kind. [/quote]

Completely disagree.  Kindness does not equal lack of competitiveness.  One can be competitive but ethical, moral, and kind.  My exceptionally kind husband is a top-notch attorney, has worked a grueling political campaign, and does very well for himself and our family in every sense.  When we first met he was (and is) so nice that I thought something similar to you - then I saw him in court.  He has an approach that is very matter-of-fact but not in your face and he uses this to his advantage.  He is a quiet pirana.  People don't expect what comes out of his mouth because the delivery is so cool, calm, and collected.  It's awesome. [/quote]

OK, except turns out we're married to the same guy.  :)[/quote]

Not everyone cares about being "very financially successful". My DH prioritized lifestyle over salary - he makes less than many lawyers but is usually home by 7pm and is able to spend lots of time with his family. We live within our means, nothing fancy, but have what we need and that is fine for both of us. [/quote]
