[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand this logic but it’s not the way to find love. You can tie up your wealth in trusts and create a prenup where your new husband won’t take your money but you don’t need a guy with money.

[b]There are amazing human souls that could make $5M a year and have chosen to devote their lives to service through DOJ, foreign service, military, firefighters, etc.[/b] There are incredible inventors, musicians, chefs. Please find love. You found money and success.

I’m also a 40s lawyer with good earning in private practice and don’t want a man who is just going to live off me but you can get billionaire leeches.[/quote]
This is an absurd statement. If they could make $5M, they would and wouldn’t be in relatively low paying jobs [/quote]

I’m not motivated by money at all. I’m motivated by seeing progress and helping others, so I teach. I could have gone into any field; I’m intelligent and driven enough to succeed at any job.

But money isn’t my end goal; I don’t want to be on my deathbed knowing the only person who benefited from my existence is myself. My parents told me to make this world better, and as trite as that sounds, that’s my goal. I don’t see how hoarding money I don’t need does that.

So don’t assume those of us who don’t make money CAN’T make money. You had an easier path making your millions because people like me elected not to join the competition.

OP’s premise is that I’m not worth meeting because my salary doesn’t meet her requirement. That’s not a shortcoming on my part; it’s a shortcoming on anyone who thinks that matters.[/quote]

If you haven't done it, you don't know if you could have been successful. And no one could succeed at any job, because it takes a lot more than being smart and hardworking, and it varies by field.

People get to have preferences that exclude us and it's not a shortcoming for either them or us. [/quote]
