[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It probably depends on age and attractiveness. I met my DH in our 20s, we both made peanuts (like our combined HHI was around 65k), but he was hot and fun and we lived really, really cheaply. If I met him at 40 making his current income, that would probably be less attractive to me because I value financial security more now. But I didn't just meet him, we've been together many years and have multiple kids he takes care of with dedication, so it's obviously not the same comparison! [/quote]

This. In your 20s its all about the potential [/quote]

Yes. I’m a wealthy divorced woman- growing with someone vs meeting them at 40 is so different. I do t care what a man earns but I very much care that he can travel/ski/golf with me. I have an expensive lifestyle I thoroughly enjoy- need a financial equal to play with me[/quote]

+1. Of course, why would you give that up? Potential is a 20's thing, not a 40's thing. You're either wealthy or you're not by your 40's.[/quote]

Stats say people don't become wealthy or millionaires until their 60s.[/quote]

There are lots of people in their 30's and 40's here in DC who are millionaires, although I wouldn't consider a net worth of $1M to be wealthy. If you're talking about amassing $10M+, then yeah, that's a different matter.[/quote]
