Marry someone who is really into his career but still wants kids. He'll be happy to have a wife to do everything at home.

Definitely agree. It has less to do with his income/job than his background and religion whether he's going to be okay with a SAHM.

OP, it sounds like you are looking for a sperm donor and a financier not a husband. Why do I have the feeling that your partner is going to be the recipient of a oops my birth control failed talk sometime.

This isn't true. Most men marry in their 30s.


You get an A+ for reading comprehension.

I said the ones who would be the most enthusiastic about this kind of setup (that is, more traditional guys) marry up early. They're not available in large numbers and for the taking for women in their 30s, unless the woman is exceptionally high value.

STFU! NO YOU DON'T. You just need the mom. Divorced moms raise good kids and they are not in a "good, loving marriage."


STFU YES YOU DO. Single moms raise broken, effed up kids.

Try Asian men. They work hard and are traditional.

Shut up, OP. And grow up, too.


+10000. No shit. Just admit you are a lazy gold digger already.


Men are the ultimate gold diggers. Women have to do all of the work to bring a child into this world and raise it. Men dont do anything. They are taking advantage of free labor by the woman.

I think what PP means is that it's better to have a healthy marriage with someone you actually like and care about than to have a marriage based on money and raising kids. Obviously raising kids as a divorced or single parent is better than raising them in a home where marriage is a transaction.

What should be my game plan?

Do engineers make good husbands?


Take out a classified ad and be prepared for a $750 engagement ring.

it depends. my bro is one, but he has seen WAY too many people at midlevel googlers/microsofties/amazonians who feel trapped at having to come to work everday because their wife is at home riding on them.

He wouldn't care if you wanted to sahm if you were willing to take a huge hit on material things...i.e., he's not going to be a pack-mule for you.
