[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sort of seems like your first marriage was mostly a business arrangement.  I don’t think trying to replicate that is the best plan.  In your 40s, you don’t have to marry for crazy passionate love, but marriage is still more than a business arrangement.  You should be looking for genuine compatibility, shared interests, kindness and consideration.  If you find all of that in a man who only makes $160K, would you really not consider it? [/quote]

I would start a relationship with a man who’s making 160k but it’s not a sign of a very driven person for DC at age 40. And likely he’s not same life style as me.  I would give him ideas how to improve his income situation by moving jobs, making good investments but won’t officially marry until he can show ability to achieve more in life. I’ve made my first million at age 30 only after 5 years in the US [/quote]

A lot of people don’t care about making large sums of money. Take your advice and shove it.[/quote]

Guys who don’t care about making a good living should marry ladies alike not me. [/quote]

Don’t worry, no one is going to marry you.[/quote]

Well, if one married me and remained married for 16 years I guess another could, too. Sorry if I offended any men here but 170k gross with 2-3 kids would really make you count items in your shopping cart. I won’t subsidize it. Their mom should chin on, too. I am not looking for a sponsor myself. If my man makes more than me I wouldn’t expect him contribute more than I do. A mixed joint/separate income and investments marriage would be fine [/quote]

Yes, but the man who remained married to you for 16 years is a different situation entirely because:

1.  You were young when he met and married you.

2.  You had children with him.

It is a different game now.  You need to relax your standards if you want to get married again.[/quote]
