Me too! But that combo is SO EXTREMELY RARE. Normally Big Law/C level etc = Big Ego and marital problems. [b]I know too many women who stay married to cheating husbands for financial security.[/b]  I'm so happy I have (and earn) my own money. Yes, my husband is rich... so am I.  We are equals as is our power balance in the relationship.   Have at me DCUM....

The bolded is what no one wants to discuss. TBH... when a woman marries a wealthy alpha man she should expect to get cheated on...[/quote]

OP, take heed. This is another downside of being a woman who married a man who is financially successful:

you learn how many people secretly wish destruction on your whole life. Envy truly is the root of evil. Before DCUM, I knew that existed somewhat, but I had no idea how pervasive the sentiment was. [/quote]

HUH??? I'm the one that made the above statement. Not sure how you interpreted as me wishing destruction on your whole life.

Being cheated on when married a wealthy successful man is an unfortunate reality women dont want to discuss nor even acknowledge. You may not be your husband's only wife. Thats something a lot of women who marry wealthy men have at the back of their mind.

Wealthy Successful men are not like regular men. Becoming wealthy takes a level of intelligence, strategy, shrewd, understanding the world in ways most don't and so much more i'm too tired to type out that the average man does not possess.

Most women fantasize about marrying a wealthy man but the average woman does not have what it takes to be married to a man like that. I'm happy i got out of my little girl fantasy when i came to this realization at the age of 25.

Another woman commented on her successful husband having high expectations of her. DUH! Marrying a wealthy man or wealthy women (lesbians for example) comes with a price. A price most people dont want to pay.

This actually seems to be untrue of many men I know in biglaw and even finance, including in my own family. The wife runs the show even when the husband brings in the lionshare of the income. But I’m Jewish as is most of my circle so maybe that’s a cultural thing. The lawyers in particular seem to be quietC introverted intellectual types who wanted to use their brains to make money instead of being, say, a professor. Generally not assholes. Finance guys tend to be the flashier type, and I know some obnoxious husbands but for the most part very committed to their families. [/quote]
