Stop being jealous of rich woman

[Sackofsatchels]

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

Something doesn't have to affect my life to make a thread about it, point is it affects someones life out there.
Somewhere out there there's a woman married to a rich man having to put up with people assuming she lives a life of luxury when in reality he holds the purse strings.
Plus all the poor woman getting reported to the welfare office for not declaring every man she dates straight away

Bizarre. How do you know she doesn’t have access to the money.

Well there will be thousands more threads you will need to make about all the things that might be happening to people that isnt very fair.

Why would I be jealous of a woman married to a rich man? Not all riches are monetary. I’d rather have health than wealth.

Men can fuck you over rich or poor. Plenty of controlling abusive dickheads with not a penny to their names.
Only fools are jealous of baseless assumptions of anyone else's circumstances.

Fuck she is. She can make her own way, get her own employment - she can have some self-respect. I have never felt envy for anyone, never mind a woman living off a man (or another woman). She is making a choice. So I am certainly not going to feel sorry for her either. And if she allows him to beat children, then frankly she's a bitch who deserves everything she gets. I'd bloody kill him and land in jail rather than let that happen.

What is your point? Plenty of threads out there about issues that don't affect the poster.

head over to Instagram for all the posts made about Palestine by people that don't live there. For example

Did you make your points on the actual threads you're complaining about, or challenge the points at the time? This just looks like weird generalisation otherwise.

If they met and had kids when they were really young she won't have any qualifications or work experience for the CV, no where to live and the kids will go to him because he has the house. It's easier said than done hats off to anyone that did it

I agree with you about the child abuse though

I do if I have time

Bloody hell, who pissed on your porridge?? 🤣

So do you know any women married to rich men who are living a life of hell, or is this just a potential scenario in your head? Do you know how many women this affects? As others have pointed out money does not affect whether a man abuses his wife.

I make my own money thanks and actually I feel sorry for women who've chosen to be dependent on a man

So what’s your point then?

I've heard enough stories, not just wives of rich men but kids too. People assume they're "privileged spoilt brats" etc but dad beats them and the only part of the wealth they see is living in the big hellhole of a mansion

Is this the position you’re on, op?
What stopped you earning your own money?

I don't give a flying fuck about anyone else's finances to be honest.

Right so your anger should be towards the abusers not people who innocently assume they are happy since they have married into money.

Come the revolution we'll be eating the rich, so problem solved 🤣

Quite. It's not something I'd ever given much thought.

I do not recognise this scenario in any of the post I’ve read here in 15 years on mumsnet.

even less so in real life!

Oh and I’ve got my own money and pension thanks. DC have house deposits, but I’m sick with cancer. Health is wealth.

Yes because the only way women accumulate wealth is by marrying rich men 🥴

What century are you in?

This! The amount of people that believe that married people dont share assets (and debt) is shocking to me. Legally you are one financial entity.
