I'm glad I have an old-school husband. He doesn't want me to work, though I've offered time and time again to get a job again. I had one up until our youngest was born, but now he prefers to be the one supporting us, while I am home. Even now that the kids are all in school, he still doesn't want me to work.
I think on my husband's dating profile it said something along the line that he would prefer a woman who had her financial house in order..... We were in our 40s and for the most part were both looking for someone had something to show for it. I think things work best when your in a similar financial situation, too much of a disparity can cause problems (but it can work).

I would like her to have a good head on her shoulders and be able to follow a budget. If she's drowning in student loans she needs to take care of it on her own.
I could care less though, if we click and she's fun I can overlook things.
I expect some financial responsibility, and a willingness to contribute equal effort.
I do not put a dollar figure on it. Nor do I think I could, since the exact figure of someone's income is meaningless withoutt evaluating the whole of their financial situation (where they live and cost of living, amount of debt, responsibility with money, etc etc etc)
I don't want to get married again so I can't vote in the poll. But I'm non-materialistic so it doesn't matter what anyone I should choose to get involved with makes. I don't "expect" anything except mutual respect. I earn my own money. Just have a way to support yourself is all I ask.
I don't mind helping out on a limited basis but I will be the judge of that. In other words I will not get involved with anyone that will use me for money.
Age and type of job is the most important factor. I'd rather marry a model who makes 75K by age 28 than a bureaucrat that makes 150k by age 44. That's just my 2 cents.

Some work just long enough to meet the next Mr right
