I gave my wife my business to run and I went and got another job to make more money, health insurance and pension. She STILL bitches about having to work. Women are fucking lazy and need a kick in the ass to go out and make something of themselves. Facebook updates is not a damn career ladies.
This is one one the best posts I've read actually - together with the likes of Almost All Men Should Eventually Marry And Have Kids by the Lizard of Oz.
Wealth corrupts.
Humans are not suited to live in wealth. At least not women. Throughout most of our evolution we lived in poverty. Poverty should not be glorified. But personally I would be more than happy to live a simple life where I mostly spend my money on family, health and traveling.
Not expensive cars, houses, clothes, electronic devices etc.
Then again maybe this is partly a rationalization because I don't make a lot of money as it is.

I like your post but the highlighted part is BS.
I know many Boomers who have passed on a lot of money to their kids to buy property. I think your attitude sounds like you expect things from your parents.
I know my folks have worked their asses of since they were 20, so if they want to enjoy a wine trip to Tuscany - that is their reward.

Just bumping this thread as it has a good bit of wisdom from some older cats here, and a really unique post by the OP... And it's relevant to me as I consider LTR / marriage-material girls.
I do think there's something about seeing a certain dollar figure that makes a woman's brain synapses go nuts...
Chris Rock somewhere has a bit where he says in sex, men can't back up once they reach a certain point, and women are the same except they can't back up when it comes to LIFESTYLE. Once they reach a certain level of lifestyle, they literally cannot go backwards psychologically.
To women, money means LIFESTYLE. And if she sees a certain dollar figure, her instinct for LIFESTYLE LEVEL will start spinning and she will NOT forget it. She'll latch onto it, and the instinct will fester and grow in her brain. She will quickly start believing she should be able to buy certain things given the dollar figure she saw.
And worse, if you don't let her buy the lifestyle she thinks she can get, she may start to resent you.
That's why the OP's strategy seems to me like a good one in the context of a marriage and kids. Have money to support a good life, but not a lavish one...
And if you end up with more, be wary about giving the devil an opportunity.

No this is nonsense. If you are a janitor making minimum wage but fuck like a champion and have the rest of your life together, fitness, logistics, and all that, you can still date hot women and have sex with them and they will want more.of your cock. If you have a good job but zero social skills but make a lot of money, you will have trouble getting women into bed and banging them much less repeat bangs.
Sure, some women are legitimately husband hunting and looking at how much a guy is making but those women seem to be few and far between. Most women, at least in the city that I seem to encounter are riding the carousel.

Im not married so Im not sure if im right here but I want my future wife to look good. So if she is going to spend money on clothes then so be it. I want my woman to dress sexy as hell wherever she goes be it with me or not.
Retarded. Limiting your own potential to try and keep your girl in check? Talk about "ball-and-chain." Sounds more like male hamsterization for why you can't make as much money as you'd like to.
She doesn't need to know how much money you have - just that you have "enough." She will live the lifestyle that you allow her to live.
