You have to target the right industries.
I only date guys in financial services. When I'm 26 I'll date men between 32-36.
By 32-36 men are at VP-MD level. A VP or MD in M&A,ECM,DCM easily brings home up to 300k a year.
Not to humble brag but the guy I'm dating now is 28 and he is in trading and he is on 6 figures. He is taking me to Berlin for a week from Monday (I could scan you my ticket if you want). He is 28 and has a lovely apartment in Shoreditch and has already hit the 6 figure range. By 34 250k is very realistic and that's how you marry someone who earns 250k.
We talk about what we both read in FT and the Economist this week, he likes the fact I know about the markets and get his work.
The whole 'be a supermodel' advice is bad. That only works for guys who are trust fund babies. Most of the bankers I meet today (especially post recession) no longer want a wife who is a liability to them. Most want women who are on their level.
See George Clooney. The new trophy wife is pretty yes but has also gotten her undergrad from Cambridge and her MBA from Harvard.
When I go out in London I only party at private members clubs (my friends are members) and I meet wealthy guys allllll the time.
Current guys who im dating
- Ed - 28 year old trader guy
- spence - this guy is a mining banker he is 30 im not very attracted to him so I won't date him
- Silvio this guy is super loaded he is currently doing his MBA at MIT and I met him this past weekend.
You have to go to the right places and actually know the business these men are in (and be in the business yourself) and its plain sailing).
Girls I know also join private members gyms. These gyms cost about 2000 a year. Many have met wealthy guys there.
The key is to get a top notch education yourself, that's what will elevate you from the girl who gets a few trips to Cannes and the girl who becomes the wife.
