[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find this thread comical.  I'm married now with kids.  But, when I was in college and throughout my 20s and early 30s I never told women I dated how much I was worth.

My parents are worth over $60 million.  We have a very large real estate empire in the area.  But, we don't look the part.  My parents started with nothing and worked 14 hour days when I was a kid.  Example: I played sports for eight years (high school and college).  They never saw me play ONCE and I did track and field, wrestling, and football.

Anyway, it's funny because so many women want to find rich guys.  After college I took a $50k corporate job.  Bought my own townhouse with my salary, car, etc.  I never took money from my parents.  Then I became a fireman.  I dated a few women but never told them my family was wealthy.

When I met the women I was going to marry I resigned from the fire department and returned to work for my family's business.  Now, I'm a partner in the firm that oversees all my family's properties.  I live in McLean in a 6000sqft house.  My wife and I both drive $50k cars (nothing too fancy) and our kids to go private school.  I have two weekend homes.  One on the water in the Southern Maryland and a country home in the Shenandoah Valley.

Moral of the story?  There isn't one.  You won't know who's actually wealthy because most wealthy people don't act or dress like it.  My family has a friend who lives in PA.  His net worth is $200 million.  He owns over 20 strip centers from NY to NC.  He drives a 20 year old Honda CRV (not joking) and he refills plastic water bottles with well water from his house instead of buying bottle water.  He shops at normal department stores for clothes.

Enjoy trying to find men who are "wealthy" :D[/quote]
You sound resentful of your parents for never attending your games and trying to pretend “never taking money from“ makes you self-made. Moral of the story? Never underestimate the self-conscious insecurity of a man whose father is worth $600 million.[/quote]

You really want to read what you want to read don't you?  I mentioned the sports as a sign of how hard they worked to be where they are.  They made sacrifices, which most Americans don't even understand because they're too lazy.  Most people don't work that hard.  My parents did.  I also worked hard.  People always assume if you are from a rich family you don't work hard or make your own money.  I took a job out of college for $50k when I could have returned to my family and made $200k as at the age of 21.  And where the heck did I single out my father???  I said BOTH PARENTS - silly kids trying to make drama because you're too bored.

You need to get a life and perhaps some perspective on your own life.  Don't get angry at others because they are better off from hard work and sacrifice.  I'm sure you're just an angry lady unset people have it easier than you because they worked and you took the easy road.

Good luck.
