[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Well how about this? I never have to worry about money. I will inherit a large sum from my parents, and DH earns a very high salary as well. I don't earn as much as him, but even by DCUM standards I earn a lot. I work at home, and I have a ton of job flexibility. My boss is really nice, and he and I have a lot of mutual respect for each other.Before this job, when I wanted to take time off and just do a minimal amount of consulting work, we didn't even have to cut back on the amount of paid help we have at home. And I have a PhD from an HYPS school, with all the respect and prestige that comes with it. DH respects my intelligence, and he considers me an equal in every way. And I get to apply my education to something that's interesting and useful without having to worry about making ends meet. I am sure OP's niece is happy...but I don't understand why she thinks that's the only formula to being happy. I loved school and never had to cram for tests...I just got to learn about cool stuff that I found interesting from some of the smartest people in the world.[/quote] Girl, you started on third and are declaring a home run? Seriously? STFD. [/quote] I'm not declaring a HR. I'm incredibly privileged. I'm just saying that you don't need to marry a privileged guy to be privileged.[/quote] Exactly :) I like your life better than the car heiress's life. [/quote] I guess my answer to OP's question is that one thing that's better is being born rich :-D[/quote] Oh for sure. Hands down. But if you weren't born rich you do have to choose a path. My pick is high potential husband I live who treats me well. Flyover state car dealership lifestyle doesn't excite me personally. [/quote]
