Hard question! They’re both really important. I’ll assume all things
are equal other than the financial piece, right? So, they’re both great catches, but one just has fatter pockets? Well, I’ll start off by saying they’re both doable. There isn’t any choice that’s better than the next, but my gut reaction is to choose the wealthy one. I know, I’m coming off like a gold digger, but financial security is just so important, especially for the type of life I know I’d want to lead. I don’t need fancy cars, clothes, houses, etc. I couldn’t care less about any of that, but I have always known that I would want to stay home with my children while they were little. That means my husband needs to make enough to allow me to do that. He doesn’t have to be rich, but needs to be able to handle the bills on his own. It doesn’t sound like that would be the case with the second guy. The question says I’d see the first guy “roughly once a week,” so I’ll take that to mean his schedule has at least a bit of flexibility so that maybe we could squeeze in a little more time. Also, if he’s making good money (and saving too), hopefully he should be able to get to a point where he can work smarter instead of harder. Then, he’d still be bringing home the money without such a big time sacrifice. If I took the “stay at home mom” piece out of the equation, I’d probably choose the second guy.
