Guys who make more than 150k/yr?

[Telekinetic-Potato]

What's your opinion on finding the right woman? I'm stuck between "accepting" that a vast majority of woman cannot be in a relationship with a man who is unable to give them the exact lifestyle they want.

I will likely be quite wealthy in about 5 years. I've decided that I'm going to really try to find my wife before I have money because if I can't it's really going to change the way I look at woman.

I know a lot of wealthy dudes have gone through similar transitions in life. Maybe the fact I'm not exactly a certified player is warping my view.

What do you think.

I've earn't more than 150K some years. Can't say it does you that much good with women because they have 5 pages of closely written foolscap sheets on what they want of which income is just one line.

I did have one girlfriend who not only spent everything she earn't but wanted to spend everything I earn't. She started off being very fair & reasonable on splitting costs though.

I invested 200K one year and her girl friends were telling her 'that's not doing you any good'.

You need to think in terms of risk management as you would in buying shares. The median length of marriage is 8 years with 1.8 children. Another blip up at 20 years.

You can do prenups but like any contract clauses can be struck out as unconscionable. In reality you are making a bet that courts continue to make judgments as they have for the next 10/20/30/40/50 years. Is your SCOTUS always going to be conservative or left leaning? It is probably going to ebb and flow over time.

I though I was protecting myself by not signing a marriage licence. I was wrong. A court decided I was married at two years.

Risk management. You have to question marrying at all.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Ahhh yes I've heard of this. There's a name for it but ya the courts will apparently treat you as married for as little as 6 months together or something like that

Usually referred to as common law marriage. Apologies I should have said I'm in Australia, as that is relevant in jurisprudence, and it is claimed there is no common law marriage here.

What did happen is the family law court granted leave to defactos to apply. Which mostly means women can sue men for part of their assets. Which means there is really common law marriage if you go through a divorce process.

The same trick has been played in many commonwealth countries. Pretty sure in UK, Canada and New Zealand. It would be surprising if it wasn't being worked on in the US by feminist groups.

My point to you is that having your wealth taken away is a risk that you need to manage just as you would with shares you buy.

Don’t mention your salary when you go on dates with girls’ , a girl shouldn’t be asking you how much money you make to begin with , if she does? Stop dating her , you can tell her what you do for a living but don’t mention salary , just say I work full time and leave it at that and ask her what she does for a living , just tell her you are looking for a girl that works with me , not against me , I want a partner , not a user. So If she still wants to see you again , then you should pretty much know , she isn’t just after your money. If she says she doesn’t work? Then no longer date her , simple as that my friend. If she doesn’t hold up her end of the bargain , kick her to the curb. No girl should be putting her hand out for money , especially if you haven’t been together for a very long time.

I don't like saying this, but I think it's true. go somewhere else to look.

So many girls in west are polluted and spoiled. If you don't have what they want, they turn their noses up.

So go to some other country such as Phillipines, Albania, Slovakia, etc. Girls that have lived simple lives, with solid families and values, they will appreciate you and what you offer. Spoiled girls have higher marks and difficult to win and retain.

There's 4 billion girls out there, maybe 1/4 billion are spoiled. so plenty...

Women in other countries aren't much different. They are still controlled by their female nature. We're all looking for the best deal we can get. Foreign women are no different. They just value western more than their own. a lot like it is here.

[Ariesman81]

Learn to vet women based off values and morals. And learn to accept that all women are attracted to men with financial security. It's not wrong, it's not whoreish... it just is what it is.

Do not lead with it though. And keep it personal. A woman who sees your value will follow regardless of finances. Yes... they are rare, but will be the ones worth sharing it with.

[worldscolide]

I make several times that... But I met my wife when I was broke, and nearly homeless.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I hope that happens to me 😂

I genuinely don't know if I can trust someone in that way if I meet them when I'm doing well.

[exitseven]

By the time I was making that much money i was long married.

[NathanDavis]

you definitely care about the wrong things...

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Right, caring about being able to trust your partner and have a relationship that's not centered around material possessions is transactional. Got you.

[zagor]

A lot of the women I've dated make more - some a lot more - than I do. I've never found that to be a problem. And until recently I was making a bit more than 150K.

[LiamJHayden]

You find a lady who demonstrates that she ahs some intriguing and deep interests, adores you, and is loyal. I am still trying to lock down the logistics of the latter two.

[gatixek710]

I think these dumb bitches on social media are warping your reality. Go outside. Walk in the woods. Meet real women in good places.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Maybe it's where I live because every time I meet a woman from out of state, they seem way higher quality.

[jahaims]

If you aren't a moron it's pretty easy to tell why she is with you

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I'm incredibly smart with everything except woman 😂

[RedInnocent69]

I think you should stop thinking so transactional, or guess what you’re gonna get?

[Telekinetic-Potato]

I'm literally making a post about my dissatisfaction with how transactional I worry woman are becoming.

What about this post said to you I'm transactional?

[RedInnocent69]

“I will likely be quite wealthy in about 5 years. I've decided that I'm going to really try to find my wife before I have money because if I can't it's really going to change the way I look at woman.”

[RedInnocent69]

Your attitude is wrong. Relationships just happen, or they don’t. Overthinking doesn’t help.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

That's silly. A relationship isn't a pre-programmed life event. It happens because you make the decision and put in the effort to be available.

Sometimes I forget I'm on GAG and this is literally the worst place on the planet to talk about this stuff 😂

[RedInnocent69]

You are incorrect. I just have a different perspective.

[Ariesman81]

But relationships are transactional, to an extent. If your wife quit fucking you, would you stay?

[In_Trance]

I think you're absolutely brainwashed

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Where do you live?

Is making 150k/year considered as wealth? 🤔🤔🤔
