Wanting a provider is fine, but bring nothing being a woman to the table in exchange is not whats up to me. To be honest wanting a insurance plan is fine too, but again what as a female do they bring besides looks and sex? I think a huge part of why successful men overall feel they way we do now is because we go into relationships subconsciously feeling like "I'm bring all this, what does she offer?" Most of the time its looks, sex and companionship. But those are things that you can get from any woman.

By this silly logic, what does a man bring to the table besides dikk and money? :ld:

Two people that date or get into a relationship together should make it about being successful together. If he wants to make 10 a year and yall being enjoy each other for months or years, why does that need to change? ( unless kids are going to be involved) If one person has goals to a certain amount of cash then everything should be golden.

Who wants to only make $10,000 a year? Where can a man support himself on that kind of money in the US?

Thats like a woman "wanting" to weigh 300 lbs, and her getting angry that most men don't want to be with her.

Its one thing if that is your situation at the moment that you are working to get out of, but people need to stop getting angry that other people don't celebrate their mediocrity.

I guess coming up that ladder, I've come to realize even tho I make 3 times a much as I made 15 years ago that the cost of living just rises with your income. You pretty much always are broke or in some kind of debt. It's cool to have them goals to make 100k a year, yeah that's cool. I just wish we a community had more goals of things outside of making alot of money and using money as a security blanket. Because its really not when its all said and done....

Money might not be the only thing that matters, but it damn sure helps, and its silly to downplay it. If you haven't managed to get better about your money despite a 3x increase in pay, that says to me you dont know how to manage money, not that money doesn't matter.

I think women sell there self short when they set those type of stipulations on guys, same with dudes who only want a pretty face and butt.


Its human nature to want the prettiest and most expensive true, but that has proven time and time again to bring no kind of lasting happiness or peace of mind.

I agree that people should look for more than superficial things, but at the end of the day u need money to live, and the way someone thinks about/deals with money says a lot about them. Someone content to make $10K a year may just not materialistic, or they might just be lazy. Someone who wants to make $100K might be ambitious and driven, or they might be greedy and materialistic. Someone with a lot of debt may be pulling themselves out of hard times, or they may be impulsive and bad with money. Regardless of anything u can tell a lot about someone from how they deal with money, so downplaying that doesn't make sense. Just another tool to assess someone's character... a damn good one too.

Over all I agree with you so I'm not gonna debate too much.


I didn't mean 10k a year but 10.00 a hour.

A woman being 300 pounds is kind of a extreme, I'd compare than more to a man that just didn't want to work.... which would be a problem on either ends.

Not trying to make 100k a year and being ok with making enough to live comfortably shouldn't be seen as mediocrity, especially if the person excels or does things in other area's. I hate that success is determined by a $ sign.

I'm actually in a really good spot money wise, I could manage it better sure. But over all, your cost of living goes up with your salary and that's my case


We need money to live, your right. But I feel like as a people our downfall comes from basing everything around that. Money should be a means to a end, and end should be to live.



I'm not knocking anyone that money motivates, its the reason I get up for work in the morning, work overtime and do side jobs sometimes. I just don't let the ends justify the means.

I would say if anything our downfall as a people is focusing on LOOKING like we have money instead of focusing on getting it, keeping it and making it work for us.

I agree though, money is not everything and at the end of the day u have to live your life first. I am basically walking away from a very lucrative business for that very reason. BUT, I dont think its wise to downplay money's importance. We look at money the wrong way, and prioritize what we think of when we think money too much.

Its below the median income in America.
Its 30k a year before taxes, if you don't take any time off.
Its good, nice and average if you're in your 20s.
But by the time you hit 30 :flabbynsick:
