This is an unusually serious topic for this forum. Those of you who are too young to believe it can happen to you or assume the financially raped were exceptionally stupid or unlucky. Do your future self a favor and think twice. The men you hear about were once like you. You're just earlier in the lifecycle. With every generation is's getting worse and not linearly. At the very least
* marriage is for only if you're in your 30s and want to have a child within a year
* make sure your parents unanimously approve of the woman
Also, the older you get the easier it gets to get laid without the paperwork. Marriage is a guaranteed loss for a man.
- 01100011 5y agoIt's not specifically advice for men. I use gender neutral pronouns for a reason. It applies to high earning women as well. My friend is a VP making good money. Her ex was a mostly out of work machinist with drug problems. She faced the same risks. Your risk is much less when you've made your money before the marriage. You can still be on the hook for alimony, but at least you won't lose half of everything you've ever worked for. In either case, understand the law. Marriage is a legal contract enforced by the state. It, legally speaking, has nothing to do with love, commitment, marital duties, fidelity, etc.
- llampx 5y agoJust going by the numbers and the outcomes, your high-earning VP woman is a LOT LOT rarer than the average lovestruck engineer who doesn't look before he leaps. Yes of course both sexes can theoretically face the same thing, but in practice it is very biased.
