All this envy some of you have towards women married to rich men. HE has the money not her if she's given up her job to look after the kids shes pretty much stuck can't even run away unless it's to live in a tent because he pays the rent and she has none of her own money. Technically could be starved by him because he's 100% in control of the finances. Same goes for the kids actually just because they have a rich dad doesn't mean he isn't beating ten tons of shit out of them

I see a lot of resentment towards rich woman on this app conversely I also see a lot of resentment towards poor women on welfare people saying it's fraud if she doesn't declare every man she dates. When sharing finances with a cunt of a male can really fuck your life up.

That is all

When sharing finances with a cunt of a male can really fuck your life up.

This is quite pertinent. Instead of assuming jealously, maybe stretch your mind to mumsnetters thinking this is the case for rich and poor women. A wealthy man who financially abuses his wife; hides money before a divorce or whose wealth is all tied up in trust can also be a cunt who can really fuck up your life.

It's important to remind women sometimes that having a wealthy husband affords you a wealthy lifestyle, but doesn't guarantee your independentwealth.

Some of us are clever and know how to 'ensure' if you separate you do so in 'good standing'.
Some of us are eternally stupid/naive when we fall in love and do nothing to ensure financial security so get stuck in awful marriages or leave poorer than we went in.
Some of us are wealthy of our own accord and fall in love with a man who drains us of every cent when they leave us.
And some of us just get royally screwed by wealthy, unscrupulous men.

See it as caution and check you are secure, instead of assuming all the women on MN are jealous of you (some will be, but hey 🤷🏾‍♀️).

People often look at a wealthy family and assume they're all "privileged" as it gets said on this site all the time. Just because the man is rich that doesn't mean the wife or kids see a crumb of the money other than the "privilege" of living in an assholes mansion.

Conversely they do the same to poor woman there's a thread in actives rn about reporting welfare fraud if a woman is dating a man and doesn't declare him straight away. Like dating a man necessarily means he helps with the bills

Why are you making a thread about this? To be a bit envious of people with money is human nature to a certain extent, but people get on with their own lives. Why do you feel the need to tell people not to be jealous? The other weird thing is you keep talking about women in very unhappy marriages, which no one would be jealous of.

Technically could be starved by him because he's 100% in control of the finances.

Or she could divorce him and take half his assets.

Point is she can't just leave him and rent or buy her own place because it's HIM that holds the purse strings so she's pretty much a bird trapped in a golden cage

Not sure why you're chastising people about someone's very specific life choices and circumstances. But if you know someone who is being financially abused tell her to contact C.a.b./ a solicitor.

Nope. Married couples are financially linked. One half doesn't own all the assets or money.

OP why are these rich people you know renting?

I was referring to the OP talking about the man having full control over his wife because he is rich. Not sure what the post is all about!

Are you giving yourself a talking to OP and accidently pressed post? Because the majority of us out here will just be minding our business, getting on with our own rich/poor/average lifestyles, not seething with resentment about women with wealthy partners, and trying to convince ourselves their lives are actually rubbish.
