[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I married my husband when he was making 80k and I 50k. We were deeply in love, with no family money on either side. We got married in 2014. It has now been 8 years since we married. We do not own a home. We do not have children. We almost got a divorce 2 years ago due to stress of not having enough to build a family life in NOVA.

I am stressed out and regretful about my choice most days. Yes, he was hot and nice, but that did not give us an income to build a suitable family life. I watched with envy as each of my friends married men making 200k, 400k and immediately were able to buy homes, have babies, build families and a family life. 
I never cared about money. I thought it was silly and materialistic. Because after all, its true love and the insides that matter.

As a bitter, broke, childless  mid thirties woman, I regret not caring about my prospective husband's salary.

If I were to do it again I would not date anyone who made less than 300k.[/quote]

This was almost me. I almost married someone who didn’t have their finances together and didn’t want kids or anything. Glad I dodged that bullet. I don’t think I need anyone who makes 300k. 100k can be just fine if you are good and smart with your money. But you need to have ambition, at least. [/quote]
