My OH earns millions AMA

[scumbagmillionaire]

Just that really. I'm a SAHM. He's earned over a million pounds for the last few years. 7 last year probs not as much this year. Presume I will get a lot of abuse but do think that there are a lot of misconceptions as to.how much money it really is after tax and what sort of person you are so....

Or traffickers?

Now you might not put hedge fund managers in these categories but they are certainly shady & don’t have a particular moral & ethical reputation

@Tinkobell - There really is no need to be so rude. I wasn't asking you.

This country does seem to collectively have a very odd view when it comes to wealth. I have been lucky to have worked in a number of countries in my career and the UK seems to be the only place where being wealthy is met with criticism, consternation and a big dollop of judgement. It is often assumed that a wealthy person could only have achieved their position through greed, exploitation, or luck, and upon achieving their status as 'wealthy' they have to constantly be reminded of those less well off, made to feel guilty even. The idea that somebody might have, without assistance, made their fortune is not a acceptable notion to some. Most other counties I have been to people just don't seem to give a shit beyond mild curiosity as to what your job is.

I think people who are making negative comments arejealous types who always blame others for their misfortunes
I haven't seen any negative comments. Which ones? or do you mean the ones asking the Op questions that just go sligjtly below the surface, rather than such boring "how many bags do you own" type ones.

I don’t think the OP should be shamed for being a SAHM just because her husband is rich.

Bring a SAHM is a valid choice regardless of whether your family finances are a struggle or not.

This is not an ‘AMA’ careers section, (re: the ‘Oh please, let’s here from an actual hedge fund manager, not the wife of one’ posts) the OP is not touting being the wife of a hedge fund manager as a alternative to work - she is just offering insight into her life, and indeed, taking feedback onboard.

As requested by the lovely and incredibly kind people here, a thread about the chaos that is me!

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/AMA/3310917-Myself-earned-millions-AMA?watched=1

Loving my grammar in the title. Other than that, am scared:)

I think people who are making negative comments are jealous.

At least what I've got modest house and car Ive had to work for. It wasn't handed to me on a golden plate.

You're right silvercatowner but neither have we inherited anything or had a leg up any other way so we wouldn't be here without it. The family comments are the only ones annoying me. No one knows anything about my family, our relationship, their standard of living. The charity thing I have owned up to and will do something about

You do realise there are other posters here who could have started this thread but didn't and who are now doing this and thinking just why? Just why would you do this?

Sorry but why is this OP getting grief, but not the Footballer’s wife OP?

You make a very good point. Its one I thought of myself and I think its down to the way the posters went about their thread.

The first one was about being a WAG and I cant recall that at anytime the WAG said her husband earned millions.

This one is just about her husbands earnings. Its in really bad taste. You just dont do it.

Ok people!

So the thread about kindness is there.

I've been "kindly' diagnosed and questioned with cancer, bipolar, infertility, autism, mother of children who have died, fantasist, drastic weight loss due to gynacological cancer, a crazy bitch because I said I like to read books, yet more ah are your babies dead, I used my powers of deduction..... oh and some mother of urgh missed the grammar play on words from here and is positively nauseous!

What, the, actual, fuck:)

It's probably what I would call the opposite of kind. I can't say that, because if I do, someone will say I have Lupus. Or my children do. Or they died of it.

Such a shame I can't develop the sweaty version of tourettes as quickly as I've apparently developed all these other things!

Mary, I’m lost. What is your last post about pls?

Mary was asked to start her own thread, and some posters don't realise that and think she is just boasting...and all the other stuff she's mentioned.
It's quite horrible Mary,

Do you want to give me a million?

I'm quite lovely, I promise.

It's close my account and leave horrible.

I've seen some nasty things on this site, but this is unbelievable.

I wrote an introduction that made it very clear what it is. Good god.

The my babies thing has got me :(

Who says and pushes that?

And smugly too, of all the attitudes to take with it.

Yeah I have no idea why you’re getting such ridiculous and cruel responses there, Mary.

Perhaps it’s down to not fitting the typical MN mold in your style of writing/answering questions? No excuse if that is the case though. The diagnosis brigade appear on most threads these days.

The bits in between the shitty comments from others are interesting though

Oooo love this, I have so many questions!

How much money have you spent today?

You said you save Adair bit, what for? I

Tomboy, thank you.

Mary, I'll have a read of the thread in its entirety to see what has happened to you on it.

It's been taken down.

Honestly, I've seen some vile things here, but I'm horrified by the things said.

Also very concerned about staying here in general. I name changed for it of course as it mentions money, the rest of me on this sites my own name, it makes me even sadder to know how I behave and what I try to offer here, yet I'm subjected to what has just happened.

Got to say, I'd miss you lovelies and the chance to just pop in and say something that might help when I see someone sad or in pain, but good god, that was hideous like I've never seen. Too upsetting:(

Well friends, you all know me here.

If you believe what the poster above has said, (seeking me out here to lie about me), that would be incredible sad,

Blimey - seems like I missed one hell of a bunfight. WTF? Was looking forward to finding out more about your life, RMM, can’t believe you got the trolls out in force. Please stay on MN and PM me your normal user name so I can say hi when I see you next. X
