[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Marriage is not overrated. It is the single most important factor in developing wealth. My sister is 50 and single. Her life is full of struggles that I will never have. I don’t say that to be mean but it is the reality of her not having a dual income. There are plenty of marriages that suck but if you take the time to find someone you are compatible with, it can change your life. Unless you are extremely successful, raising a kid single will almost ensure financial struggles. Keep dating and make it a full time job. Consider men you might have said no to in the past but don’t ignore red flags (drinking, drugs, unemployed, etc.) for incompatibility. [/quote] That your sister is a loser doesn’t mean that marriage isn’t overrated. [/quote] She’s correct about marriage building wealth though. You’re probably too young to appreciate how wide the gaps are by 50.[/quote] Actually I’m older than 50. Who cares about building wealth if you don’t have kids to leave it to? All you need is enough money to comfortably support yourself. You’re not taking it with you. [/quote]
