[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think women like men who are higher status, which often but not always translates into income. I make a ton of money and like when a guy makes more, but I can also see being with a guy who is e.g. in a prestigious govt appointment, or has a job requiring a very high level of intelligence that doesn't happen to pay as much, or who has a lower income but has made wise investments and has wealth/security. I doubt Heidi Cruz has any issues with being the breadwinner in her family. [/quote] Another example is a BigLaw female partner married to a "famous" session guitarist. He doesn't make much money (maybe $50k total in a good year), but is known by every major rock group and plays on many of their studio albums. She has been to the Grammy's several times and has Dave Grohl or Eddie Veder or Flea or somebody staying at their house sometimes when they are in town. It's a coolness factor that she could never create on her own. It's also making $50k working a total of maybe 45-60 days per year, so he is essentially the SAH parent as well. He is also busy playing with his local rock & jazz band which doesn't earn much of anything, but has a decent local following.[/quote]
