[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, it was more about what degree he had. I married my husband the summer between finishing his master's and heading to a Ph.D. degree in statistics. We're doing well now. I am a stay-at-home mom, and he makes 160k. He finished his Ph.D. three years ago. Not all women are gold diggers. [/quote] To add, he didn't have any college loan debt. He also wasn't going to have any from his Ph.D. Although, to be honest, I wouldn't have cared. We didn't have a car until after marriage. I could see that he was smart with money. He was supportive of me staying at home with the kids. Women have different ideas about their futures. Some envision being a stay-at-home mom and having a nanny or household help. That sort of lifestyle requires probably about 300k in the DC area. I had opportunities to be with men who finished college and owned a townhouse and a car. My life would have been easier, but my gut told me to hold out for someone nicer. [/quote]
