I live in a very expensive area, so a minimum of $250,000 per year would be fine with me. I eventually want him to make more money than my dad makes. I cannot be with a man or take him seriously if he can't provide more than my dad has.


In both of my serious relationships the men made just over $100k. I have my own business and my own money. However, I want to feel as if my man can handle the bills on his own. It is because of this, that I would want my man to make at least $150k. As I grow and gain more assets, the figure increases.
I have a friend who went from a stay at home mom to making over $250k a year. Her husband was making $80k at the time and she became very unsatisfied with him to the point that she divorced him. She felt that because she came up, he should have been motivated to increase his income. In her line of work she mingles with millionaires consistently and felt that she could and should have one. I hear a lot of stories like that and I don't want to start out that way.


I would want my husband to make at least $35,000 if he was black, $45,000 -hispanic ,$50,000 -white. I make more than $50,000 and I get a raise and bonus every year so he would need to keep up. :scusthov: :pacspit:


Around 150,000+ cause I'm in grad school at a medical school and I'm trying to scoop me up one of these cute doctors in training....

Males who use the term "gold digger" to refer to a woman shouldn't be on any woman's radar as far as marriage and relationships. Those are bottom-of-the-barrel type dudes, and the funny thing is, a lot of the time they don't even make shyt, but are the first one worried that a woman is going to try to use them or take them for the few little pennies they do have. When you hear a dude talking about "gold-diggers this" and "gold diggers that" and they're not clearing a MINIMUM of $100k per year, run far away. (And keep running until you get to one at any income level who wouldn't dare call any relationship-minded woman a gold digger.) I get so tired of dudes with their little Verizon wireless or McCubicle jobs talking about gold-digging I could scream.

Professional, well-raised, classy men of means generally don't label women that way, because they've been socialized properly and know that having a family (wife, kids) takes money, that a woman will have to make sacrifices for the sake of her husband and children, and know that she deserves to be compensated and should feel secure that her husband will be able to be a great provider as she dedicates herself to being a
good wife and mother. I have my theories on why so many broke-ass males go around accusing women who want good providers of being gold-diggers, but the truth is: real family men know, enjoy, and love being the provider.

Again, I feel so sorry for single young women coming up today. Little boys these days are trash. Just sorry as hell!

At the absolute minimum I would need him to be making about 300,000 a year. I say this because currently I earn over 140,000 a year and I am expecting a raise at the end of the year. This does not include bonuses, but they are not always a given. I have a mortage, and just living expense here in NYC it hardly goes as far it would in other parts of the country. My ideal partner would make double what I make especially when children come I to the picture. Being able to live on just one income is important. My last ex made about 500K a year between his consulting business and corporate job. My current SO makes far more than my ex.
