I found out the information from a close friend. So I did some investigation on my own and yea he's rich. :(

Oh well. If she is happy then I'm happy.

btw, I think issues like this matter to men because we tend to be competitive. We don't want to see our ex loved ones married to someone that makes more in one month then you make in a year.

I'm not dwelling on my ex-gf but I was shocked a bit when I was told that she married someone wealthy.

As I stated earlier I think it's mostly an ego thing. I could never give her the things that her husband could give her. Not yet anyway.

a "things" relationship leads to a dead end anyway, no matter how rich you are.

You're correct, it IS an ego thing. Here's another ego wakeup for you: some young men are born into wealthy families with good DNA. My family had neither, although I've never had to worry about putting food on the table.

I know a number of young women (early 20s) who expect, in their early 20s, to live the same sort of lifestyle that their parents lead (who are in their mid 40s at earliest). They don't understand, or simply don't care, that their parents are at the highest earning potential of their careers, while these young women (or, in most cases, their husbands) are just starting out, and are earning the salary commensurate with their position and experience.

Of course, these young women, being too vapid or vain to get it, will spend their families into holes of debt which will take years to recover from. Or, of course, they can marry a rich guy, and spend him into oblivion until he's broke or until he kicks them to the curb.

Phew. Now that that's off my chest: forget about her, focus on bettering yourself and making yourself happy, and maybe, at your thirty-year high school reunion, someone will give a sh!t enough to compare you to her husband, and you'll be the better man.

That's true.

I fully agree Orsorum.

Society puts pressure on us to succeed. You have to do well financially to be looked at as a success in America. If you don't have the gorgeous home, expensive car and other expensive items in your possession than you're not considered a success.

You know, I'm a college graduate, I'll have my first masters degree in a year, probably my second masters degree by the time I'm 30. I have a good job lined up, I can cover all my debts, I can save for the future, I have a place to live, and I can enjoy a night out with friends a few times a month.

But I'm not wealthy, I don't have a nice car, I don't have a $250,000+ home, and I don't have nice items in my possession (with the exception of my liquor cabinet, :eek:). I don't judge my success by my material possessions, but by my character, my work, and my continual learning.

You have to choose what makes you happy, and what metric you use to determine success. Then make the choices that direct your life, and be content with it. If you compare yourself to what society says means "success", you'll always be one of the mob.

Thanks for the advice. That cheered me up a bit.

Have a good day.

Glad to hear it, though I was more venting than anything. Now if I can just get a couple hours' sleep, I won't be facing the day with five hours' sleep. :confused: :(

I see alot of "rich" people in CT. Most of them burried in debt. I have no debt other than my home and a car whcih will be paid off in 4 months.

My next home should be in the $500-$800K ball park depending on how much debt I'm willing to take on.
