[quote=Anonymous]I “married rich” (we don’t count as DCUM rich but DH does well as a big law partner) and I just don’t think my life is anything to envy.

1. My husbands job is my accomplishment so I don’t derive pride from it. I am proud of the things I do as a mom and how I’ve overcome a tough childhood and how I’ve taken care of myself despite having a terrible chronic illness. But my husbands job has nothing to do with me.

2. as I said above, I have issues that money can’t fix. I wouldn’t wish my illness on anybody except for maybe a true sociopath.

3. My husband is great but the way he is anxious about having enough money can be stressful for me. I wish he would get a different job because the poor guy is stressed a lot, but having a lower-paying job would stress him out even more.

Yes, it’s nice to not have to stress about orthodontia and be able to send the kids to the summer camps they want to go to. I won’t lie and say I don’t appreciate the money.  But it’s not like I live this fairy tale existence. [/quote]
