Mama always said, "you can marry a rich man as easily as a poor man."

Women in general tend to be more risk-averse than men. The path to high incomes often, but not always, involves taking more risk. Starting your own business; taking a job at a new startup, etc..

What is your problem? I’m a woman, concerned with my career, and think it’s disempowering to women for them to think that the only way to have a good life is to marry a wealthy man.
How do you have such a good life when you have to outsource childcare? Or perhaps you don’t have children. Or your spouse takes care of the children and home.
You clearly do not think you are worth very much.
I do think absentee parenting can have tragic consequences. Just look around.
I agree, it's so sad. Men have to take on these insane jobs with long work hours and tons of travel and never see their kids. Maybe a 1 hour a night and they are so tired and burned out... and quite frankly don't think it is their job to parent.
There is a whole segment of kids that are raised by a single parent even though their dad "lives" in their home.
My friend saw his son Saturday morning and his son said, what city were you in this week and my friend said, "sadly, DC" and his kids never saw him once all week.
It's seriously so sad. Hey but the kids have iphones.
If you want to mandate price controls for real estate, education, and consumer goods, and amend labor laws for salaried people, go ahead. Meanwhile, the rest of us live in the real world.
I don't think your example is the norm. I sah and we're not rich. My husband is very supportive. He wants me to sah more than I do! I think women want choice's. They want the option to sah. Most women will return to work later.
It's very hard to work when your spouse does not support it.

There’s an entire forum on this board dedicated to discussing making our own money.

I don’t know but I wish I had focused more of my energy on “bagging a rich guy” than trying to be educated and independent. Then I wouldn’t be so tired all the damned time and could spend my days doing yoga and meditating instead of writing memos and taking shit from my co-workers.

Again, if women want to have money - and ensure those coming after them are able to make more money - why not make yourself as valuable in the marketplace as possible?
You assume there is only one marketplace.
Well work in the bedroom is the oldest marketplace in the world, right?

Yes, this. I mean, what is this illusion that work is always rewarding and fulfilling. Most jobs I have had are fine but I wouldn't do them unless I had to. Would much rather be home with the kids, working out when I can, taking time to make a good meal and being less stressed.
This. Most women are socialized to believe they can't do much better than a boring desk job or low pay. They don't know that there are other options or they thnk are not good enough to get them.
If you’re 80 or just a loser, sure. But the rest of us living the world since the 70s haven’t been socialized to have such low standards. It’s realky sad your parents had such little hope for you.

Woman don’t have all of the time in the world when it come to having a family, some prioritize staying at home, some are motivated by helping others outside of monetary means, just because some aspects of societal or natural gender rolls don’t work for you doesn’t mean others aren't entitled to living within them. If everyone is open and honest, who cares. It doesn't make a woman less intelligent or mean she is contributing less to society.

What does that have to do with absent fathers?
