When I was 26, I dated a 38 year old woman. Later, I found out she had a net worth of $41 million. My first thought was simple, this could work. She liked me, I liked her, we made a good couple. Money shouldn’t have been an issue. She had her own, I had my own. It should have been that simple.
But it wasn’t.
She had a problem with the fact that I couldn’t afford the kind of vacations she was used to. That was the dealbreaker. Not compatibility, not connection, not character, just the fact that I couldn’t match her spending habits.
Needless to say, she ended it.
