[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Step 1 - Get into a top college. [/b]If you want to take it up a notch, choose a university with a high male to female ratio and/or choose a male dominated field like engineering or computer science. Step 2a - [b]work hard and actually get good grades so you can be successful [/b]if your plan falls through. [b]Step 2b - only date guys who have a good relationship with their affluent, married parents.[/b] If you want to inherit $$$ or just have the kind in-laws that pay for weddings and a down payment for a house, you are looking for a guy whose parents still pay for their adult kids’ iPhones and take them on scuba and ski vacations. Sorry, not sorry, but divorce = less money to go around. A guy that has a close and friendly/ easy relationship with his siblings and parents AND the family welcomes you and makes you feel included is also a decent screen for mental illness and crazy MILs. You know how there is always one affluent / rich guy in your dorm and when his parents are in town they buy pizza for the floor or take a group of like 6-10 like out to dinner? That’s the family you want to marry into. They have money to spare AND are generous and inclusive. [b]Step 3 - get a job with the most prestigious company you can.[/b] Don’t go work at a chemical plant in Peoria or as a project manager in Worcester Mass unless you want to marry a guy with that type of job. You want consulting, FAANG, finance. First you need to make money and demonstrate ambition to attract the same. If you are still with your rich college BF, this will show his parents you don’t need a pre-up. If you aren’t, this will help you find the next one. [b]Step 4 - look for the guy at your prestigious company who is going places.[/b] Not the guy who works 100 hours a week or the most butt kissing one, but the one that seems to understand the politics. You are looking for the guy who gets pulled into projects and invited to happy hours by people 3-4 levels above him. Don’t throw away your career yet, but if there is a tie, make the choice that supports his career. Basically fake it until you make it. Surround yourself with rich, successful people and learn how to be more like them. Chances are decent you will marry one, become rich and successful on your own, or both. [/quote] THIS WORKS! You'll make a ton of interesting friends too and have a great time along the way. No need to fake it - all these places have a mix of smart, down-to-earth successful people and somewhat-smart, crazy Bret Easton Ellis-type "successful" lucky people. Plus you'll have a bunch of awesome girlfriends and Mom friends later, all over the country and world. --- Full ride ugrad (academic) --> Ibanking --> buyside --> Top 5 MBA --> buyside + got married --> kids, kept working --> now both Sr on the buyside[/quote]
