Over 50m but less than 100.

I come from a rich family, and took many breaks throughout my career, it’s not an issue at all. Not being a wage slave bothers you that much?


I don’t look down on SAHMs because they are doing a job - raising children. I don’t look down on a rich person who doesn’t work but does a lot of meaningful volunteering. Or even if they are spending all their time mountain climbing or painting or some other challenging and time consuming activity. (I may not able to relate to them but I don’t look down on them.) Someone who is rich and does nothing I look down on, same as I’d look down on a poor person who does nothing.

I don’t see much difference between a rich person doing nothing and a rich person spending all their time pursuing personal hobbies.

Move on. The right man will not care and will not see this as a negative.


How is OP successful? An Ivy League grad who couldn’t manage the workforce? It sounds like her grandparents might have been successful.

You poor thing. Yes, a break is what you need even though you aren’t opposed to work.



I’d like to in the future but there isn’t really any need for me to now or really ever.

My recent ex is a trust fund baby. I wouldn't care except that he can't relate to people having money issues. At all. And I often got stuck paying for him and he didn't think it was a big deal, but it was for me. He never had to worry about money in his life, and now that everything is expensive, I worry about money constantly. We couldn't relate to each other.

So he might feel the same.

Thank you
He called, so I picked up and he went on to apologize, and asked when we would be having our third date. I said we wouldn’t be and hung up.

I think of trust funds as something that someone at some point worked really hard to build. They’re there for safety and to pass down, to make life easier, but not to just blow through aimlessly.

The line that you are open to working is weird. Working isn’t something you just sign up for, like a gym membership. You have to actually build a career, and that takes work. Unless you mean you’re going to work at Banana Republic or Starbucks or someplace like that.


+1

The issue is that OP is taking a "well earned break" from the workforce at the ripe old age of 24. And OP's free time activities don't seem to include anything meaningful, such as continuing education, volunteer work, helping care for a relative, etc.

OP, unless a man is looking for a SAHM, and that's also your desire, you are not the best catch. Of course if you are very attractive, you could be a trophy wife. If you lead with your trust fund, you could attract gold diggers. But overall, you really should focus on creating a more purposeful life.
