[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m female in my late 40s and make $500k.  My kids are taken care of and their father makes just under $1M.

I get what you’re looking for—someone who can keep up with you financially and culturally.  It’s expensive to travel to Europe for 2 weeks in summer, spend 2 weeks skiing in the winter, and have a few long weekends.  You’re future partner needs to be able to pay their own way.  People on DCUM are so quick to tell women who want a more extravagant lifestyle to get their own money.  Well, you have your own money.  I don’t see why what you’re looking for is unreasonable.  However, in the DC area it’s probably not realistic.  You need to look in NY or Silicon Valley.[/quote]

Vomit. And yes, you are right. Those men are not in DC. Which is why I told a family member to leave 20 years ago...and he did and now very wealthy.[/quote]

Did your family member find a high net worth gentlemen in his new home area?[/quote]

The family member is a man and a multimillionaire. He married an immigrant (Eastern European) who is not at all like OP. She is not materialistic at all. [/quote]

It’s a totally different situation - if she’s a young imjgrant without much to her name she won’t be thinking about a man contributing equally. She will ge happy with whatever her husband offers as she married him when he had it all already [/quote]

She is not young now and Harvard graduate degree. Stop with your assumptions. They married when he was just getting started. They married before age 30.[/quote]

Stop with this fake thinking she went to Harvard for non-materialist goals. Everyone knows why people complete for these scholarships or pay tuition fees: access to certain circles, higher salaries, higher success. She didn't marry "Joe the Plumber". Neither did I (didn't go to Harvard but to another pretty well ranked program)[/quote]

You do not have a PhD from Harvard. She does. [/quote]

I never needed one and there is no PhD for lawyers. There is an SJD but it’s for those who take academia route. [/quote]

My point is that you said that she didn’t have anything and married him when he had it all and that’s absolutely not the case and she’s from Eastern Europe so not everybody is money hungry and greedy like you are.[/quote]
