RF, Megan just stated that she is Jewish. That explains the marriage. There is a different tradition involved. I am ready to give her a pass for membership.
And it is going to become more difficult. Especially for senior citizens.
Yah, us too. The one or one and a half income homeschooling family is a big financial sacrifice in this day and age. Most people make the choice to send their children to institutional schools, whether public or private, and that is sort of how the “system” is designed . . . to have Mom work . . .
You'll catch on.
I disagree. A "gold digger" is typically an uneducated female-bimbo, chasing after a guy who already has money, typically a male-bimbo who got it by being a liar, cheat, thief, sports jock, drug dealer, actor, singer, or some other type of worthless a-hole.
A woman who prepares herself academically and culturally for a future role as housewife and mother, to be a constructive partner in a functional family, sounds to me like a "responsible" housewife-to-be and mother-to-be.
Home school was a sacrifice for us too, but I was blessed to have a degree that was fairly flexible - truly a gift from God.
I'll bet most of the men here understand completely why. You have earned your wings.
>>The first shot was taken at me.<<
You are very new here.
What you posted seemed shallow. You may think it’s wonderful, but most of us marry for love and not money. Now you can back down from the post, which you seemed to have done but my suggestion is that you read for a while and see the protocol.
Newbies never do well with attitude.
You had a plan, good for you. If my daughter told me that what you wrote was her plan in life, I would tell her, prostitution is prostitution. Even if that’s to be a SAHM. Nothing personal, but I got an education, saved money, continued ballet well into my 30s, married a great man that I love and now I’M a SAHM. I didn’t have to marry someone I thought little of, for cash.
LOLOLOL!!!!!
(then she said that she is an only child)

A woman who marries a “geek” because he has potential for earning big bucks, is a “gold-digger” any way you slice it.
I’m married to a “geek” because I love him. I came with a hefty savings and a house.
Cash doesn’t care.
It’s cool. I’m just saying, because I know that you’d really like her or admire her if you get to know her.
>>My hubby is the most wonderful man in the entire world. If the personal attacks against me continue, Ill take my business elsewhere.<<
I fear “The most wonderful man in the world” would be crushed to read your post. I know mine would, but I wouldn’t have said I married below my potential for cash.
If you want to take that personally, be my guest.
I feel like such a maroon.

Marla's no hag, nor is she 52, if this is really her:
Don’t.
Smarmy newbies suck. I remember my first smackdown on FR. Every one of us had one. And depending on the reaction, lets us know if it’s a real poster or a Huffpo plant.
