[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like every other poster here makes 200-300k and is married to someone else making a salary in this range. How do you guys find women like this? I make in this range as well but every girl I’ve dated earns below 50k. I’m not sure I want to enter a marriage with such a disparity in earnings, but I cannot for the life of me find a single woman who is at my level career wise. Am I dating too young? I mostly stick with women 25-30. I’m

My wife is 43. She does not have a college degree. At age 25 she was making 55k as an "account manager ". Doesn't hurt that she's a smoke show.  She's in IT sales and now on average pulls 400k/yr.

Her qualities:
-very hard worker 
-great communicator
-very social, people like her
-smart
-hot

Just don't marry someone who wants to have babies and quit working. Also don't marry a beta woman. They are boring and lack ambition.

At this point I would not object to her to quit working. She was with a company who went IPO (so major options) and has spent almost 20 years contributing to a 401k. However it is not in her personality to sit at home watching Oprah and organizing PTA bake sales. [/quote]

And you still don’t care that she does not have a degree?[/quote]

Why would I care? She makes more money than the vast majority of people with a degree and is smarter than most. I win the jackpot in the lottery of wives. Smart, high earner and a dime. [/quote]
I would be embarrassed if it came up in social situations.  People will look down on her. Plus, how will you tell your kids thaf a college degree is a must?[/quote]

Don't project your insecurities onto other people.  This woman is successful and happy and doesn't need to sink tens of thousands of dollars into a piece of paper to impress small-minded people at a cocktail party.  People who look down on a self-made women are the same people who look down on people that go to public universities, not living in the right neighborhood, or whatever status symbol they're clinging to to make themselves feel better than other people.  People without formal education can be smart, well-read, and interesting people just like well-educated people can be shallow, ignorant bores.[/quote]

All you needed to say was hot and sales. No other qualities needed other than basic social skills and intelligence. [/quote]
