But the more I read threads on these forums, the more I get the impression that the SAH wives of wealth men are not only incredibly unhappy, but they're almost a bit soulless. I wonder if they were always like that or if the money changed them, but there's an incredible lack of empathy, a sense of entitlement, and an ugly elitism that pervades their posts.
If that's what a wealthy husband gets a girl, maybe I'm better of with my working-class, sincere, down-to-earth guy and my humble little existence.
Sometimes I think this too, but mostly I think that there's a mix. Some are happy, some aren't. It's trite but happiness comes from inside ( self esteem, optimism etc) and is very connected to positive relationships. So if the rich wife is happy in her skin and has good relationships she'd probably be happy with or without her rich husband and vice versatile.
