How much does family background and family wealth matter to you as a woman if the guy is doing really well (makes $500k+/yr, $1mm+ net worth in early 30s), attractive, and has his ish together. This is not me - just curious.

What’s the issue, his parents aren’t as rich as him? Or his parents are billionaires? Or your parents are billionaires and see him as a step down? What’s your concern?

I care more about whether he’s a kind to me and others than what’s in his bank account. I was dating someone considerably wealthy but he became an asshole with a short temper. Every day was a nightmare. We dated in college and thought enough time had passed that things would be different this time but he was a totally different person. Money is nice but if it comes at a price of your emotional safety and happiness, hard pass.

At those numbers, family bg / wealth doesn’t matter except only if the guy is close to his family and they’re monster in-laws. Everything else works for most women I know, they’ll care more about other aspects (is he fit, good in bed, etc etc). I guess some women want more wealth..? I don’t think I can speak for everyone

Someone like that is probably very dedicated to their professional path in terms of time and mental energy. 500k won't make you rich rich any time soon, but you'll want for nothing.

Rage bait.

Not rage bait. I live in NYC. See this all the time

Also - I’m a man, but was asking on behalf of a friend of mine.

I’m not single but the guy I described in my post was me a few years ago.

F. 38 It depends on each person. Some people may care about pedigree and are classist. Nothing wrong with that it’s just their values. Personally I wouldn’t judge anyone’s family or where they came because we can’t control that part of our life. My concern is do our values and beliefs align.

I hate when people use the phrase “I would die for (xyz)” when xyz is something no one would actually die for - like a random cute dog on the internet or whatever. I mean, would you really die for that? It’s cute and all, but, no, I would not die for it.

Do you share details about raises/bonuses/other financial gains with friends or do you keep it to yourself? I have a few friends who will tell me everything from how much money they make to how much their husband spent on them for their bdays to how much their parents make?? To me that feels like bragging/being arrogant. It’s also the way they say it, feels very much like seeking validation to me.

I miss music. Like actual bands with instruments and vocal ability. Feels like the music industry is so hollowed out that multi-member instrumental bands like Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, and even Metallica are no longer able to take root.

There are a few talented individual singers (Adele) a lot of awful mumble rappers, but no actual bands that will stand the test of time. Before I get called a Boomer, the problems with the music industry for new artists are well documented.
