the most certain way to cement a relationship with a Russian woman
is to HAVE kids with her, and not have her raise your first wife’s kids...
which NONE of ‘em are gonna be interested in...
cuz' there ain’t no Mother Teressa’s in Russ-see-ya, ya feel me bruv?
Ok, so this guy I know from work who has a couple of children was wondering how things would sit on him getting a FSW if he already has children and is undecided on wanting any more, though most probably not. I told him that a lot of FSW as far as I knew wanted a guy without children as they don't necesarily take too well to other peoples, but said I would enquire further (hence my question here ;)) He has not yet got involved in the FSU Dating scene, not even online but was just curious.
So I thuought I would pitch it to you guys to see your thoughts. Could he get a FSW without children, or more likely a FSW with children already? I know some cases of UK couples where adults with existing children get together and creating a family that works often with an interesting mix.
The guy is about my age in his early to mid forties and is reasonably well established in life (a bit better than me :D), own 3 bed house, decent income mid £25k or so.
I'm guessing some FSW who are over 40 who's chances of having kids aren't great might go for it, any thoughts on this?
Like most things, it depends on the woman. FSU women are not mysterious aliens - they are women. Some would mind, some would say they don't mind but will actually mind, some would not mind but will be a horrible stepmom, and some would be a great match.
The problem with your friend is his income. If UK's immigration laws are similar to the US, he will not qualify based on income to bring over an immigrant wife and her children, depending on how many.
Even if he does barely scrape by the requirements, no woman in her right mind would consider it. Especially if she has children to think about.
TC-
Sorry...did you mean that to be 250k, or 25k per month and not annually, yes?
Sorry, I didn’t see his income..... It’s on the low side to support two kids and a wife who may not work for a year or so on arrival, even if she doesn’t have children of her own. Raising children isn’t cheap by any means if you want to give them a comfortable lifestyle.

Trenchit’s all about the kapoosta baby....
ya gotta understand how the kultura works in Russ-see-ya....
it’s all about the kapoosta baby....
and when it comes to kapoosta....
as a general rule, children from wife #1 and wife #2 have a CLEAR conflict of interest when the donkey dies....
for example, who gets the saddle?
children and poor ‘ole widow lady gonna’ fight over that danged saddle...
who wants that?
that’s why smart girls prefer a single dewd....
also in relationship algebra, if you got a negative like that on your side of the equation...
then you can expect the other side’s gonna probably have something similar to balance it...
cuz that’s how relationship algebra works...

Krim, please don't die, because we will miss you a lot, not speaking about your saddle lol.
that’s how relationship algebra works...
I mean that as annually, £25k per year, before tax.
Who told you that £25k ($33k) is a decent income for a guy with two kids?
He doesn't make enough money. Can he take on more and make more?
Tell him to stop working as a busboy and get a real job.
I mean that as annually, £25k per year, before tax.
:shock:
Remember the pound sterling is more valuable than the US dollar. The exchange rate is about 5 to 1, yes?
Woooops, 5::1 was before the abandonment of the gold standard and the start of WW II. So the pound was then devalued to 2.80 per dollar. 25k is thus $65k per year. That's $30/hr. Enough for marriage if one is frugal and wise.
Woooooops, 2.80::1.00 was during my university days (60s) when British comedies were funny. As the world discovered the truth about the high maintenance of British automobiles and their Lucas electronics, the pound declined. When I went to London in the mid 1970s, it had declined to about 2.00 to 1.00.
Woooops, that was before further decline in response to Paul Volcker's monetary policies. It almost reached parity. Then rose and followed roller coaster path to today's 1.30::1.00. 25k a year is thus $32,000/yr, a little above the hourly pay for my 20-yr stepson at his part-time job slicing deli meat and making subs.
Trench, the issue can not be squared unless your friend had a second income such as fleecing expat pensioners.
.
The American government will allow a person to sponsor a fiancée if they are making at least 125% of the poverty level. Based off current government charts poverty level, a person needs to make around $20K to do a k-1 or they will need a co-sponsor to help sponsor someone over.
What does the UK think a person needs to make before allowing them to bring somebody over?

According to one US study, 64% of millennials would rather make $40,000 a year in a job they love than $100,000 a year in a boring one.

There are lots of jobs here for you on great money..... Assistants earn almost twice what a UK architect earns.
It could have interest for me given depending on my circumstances at a given time. I've watched programs on TV about emigration from the UK to Australia. I get the impression in general there is far more scope to get to better money easier mainly from what I see as people aren't treading on each others toes. Here in the UK a lot of stuff you do there would be a queue of other people with the same idea. Hence the opportunity to even get the job let alone pay would be less. I get the impression in Australia people are more spread out with not a big population growth hence more opportunities being more freely available.
That said I'm not overly convinced that the figures would work out after all the essentials & tax are paid to what it first looks. It may still be higher than the UK but after all is taken into account it might not be as much as first thought.
Main thing is that at the moment I'm not at a free and easy period that emigration if only for a year or two would suit. Might be an idea for the future though possibly.
TC - life is not transactional and deterministic, particularly when dealing with intercultural relationships. Women are different and seek different attributes in a partner. But I'll try to make it easy for you.
There are (at least) five primary factors that will determine possibility of "success" in international dating. They will vary at different times in your life:
A) Money
B) Language skills
C) Time
D) Physical characteristics
E) Personality
Money
-1: you receive any government welfare
0: need to budget, cannot afford two additional dependents, on a "low" income, etc.
1: can support two additional dependents and travel regularly without increasing income
2: money is not a concern
Language skills
-1: No language skills and clueless about the culture
0: Little or no (Russian) language skills
1: Passable conversational ability, can read a bit
2: Advanced conversational ability
Time
-1: Unlikely to visit the FSU in the next six months
0: Hard to take time off work, only two weeks annual holiday, etc.
1: Can travel up to four weeks a year and at least 2 visits
2: Can travel more than four weeks a year and make at 4+ visits
Physical characteristics
-1: 15+ years older than a woman, fat, ugly, etc.
0: 10+ years older, in poor shape, average looks, etc.
1: Within 5-10 years of a woman, in good shape, etc.
2: Less than 5 years older than a woman, good looking, good physique, etc.
Personality
-1: No confidence, boring, lacking social skills, etc.
0: Low confidence and a relatively boring person
1: Confident in dating, intelligent, an interesting interlocur
2: Can engage with people without speaking the same language, confident, charismatic, etc.
Self assess with a critical lens, rank yourself against each and add up your score:
< 0 (Cold): forget it, you don't have a chance.
0-4 (Cool): don't pursue an FSUW unless you dramatically improve yourself.
5-7 (Warm): there's potential but weaknesses may hold you back.
8-10 (Hot): if you're smart and persistent you'll probably find a good woman.
(Note: Whether you have children or not is probably the other factor I'd call out, but it really depends on your age and attitudes of a potential partner, and the age of children, so harder to rank. Generally speaking, -1 if you have kids, +1 if you don't.)
I’m working along side a guy from the UK in my department. He’s in his late 50’s and he moved over here 4 years ago. The main reason was the climate, but secondarily he was a long way out in front financially as an engineer, even taking into account the higher living costs in Australia. We also have a guy from Argentina who has worked in the UK and he moved here last year and claims he’s more financially secure.
On jobs.... I’ve never been out of a job for less than a day. In 2012 the engineering company I worked for went into receivership. The next day I found another company advertising in the newspaper. I had an interview at 8am and was working at 9am. They become slow and as I was last on I was first off. An hour later I had another interview and started the next morning. If you have the skills in certain fields you can pretty much pick and choose where you work here.
The average wage for an architect here is €46k and you get all the perks of free medical . . .
Wow . . . so the physicians, nurses, dentists are paid zero ??
They have to have gardens, etc., to survive.??
What about their housing expenses ??
Our taxes pay for these services....
You said it was free !!!
Xrays there is no out of pocket costs (apart from the tax we pay)
Davo, see how hard it is for even you to avoid (at first ) thinking that something is free ??
It is a type of brainwashing that has worked very well around most of the globe.
Has lead to less and less reliance on self, and more and more wanting big brother to take care of us . . . while hoping that someone else will be taxed for it . . . although many have no idea or no care about where the money comes from.
I am continually shocked at the number of educated people who come into my university town from other countries and tell me that medical care was free in their home country.
Good question Davo.
Very, very deep.
I do not have a ready response.
Perhaps I will never be able to answer this question; even to myself.
Most Americans have some sort of medical insurance at any given time even if they didn't buy medical insurance. In a car accident, they will be covered. If you fall down the stairs in someone else's house, chances are you are covered by the homeowners insurance. If you get injured at work, you're covered by Labor and Industries insurance. If you're not working and are poor, those people are on Obamacare insurance. Vets get free medical insurance.
Doctors and other medical professionals make very good money doing what they do. They aren't going to sacrifice their pay to bring down costs. Fortunately my wife will be graduating in less than two years and her starting pay could be 80K a year where I live. She eventually wants to be a nurse practitioner and will make over a 100k starting pay easy if she achieves that goal. Some people think FSU women cost money. I see them as an investment.
No they all earn good money. My sister is an registered nurse working in the emergency department of a regional city she earns approximately $120k a year. My father has a close mate who’s a Dr in their small town. I remember my dad telling me he earns $250k, but I might be wrong. My Ex is a primary school teacher and her wage was close to $100k.
Our taxes pay for these services....This is just my thoughts, we spend a fraction of what you guys do in the US on things like defence and other things that are not absolutely essential to the everyday person on the street, so there’s money to spend on other things like our Medicare system.
ML, I have a question for you. If America said f*ck it !!.... the world can sort out it’s own problems and cut the spending in defence, intelligence etc... and all the financial support you give to other countries, so you can comfortably provided a Medicare system like other countries, would it improve your citizens financial situation and health and be a good thing for your country?
I asked because I read the average *cost to Americans for health care* is approximately $9000 a year and we pay approximately $3000 a year more than you a year in tax, according to this old article, so there must be family’s on middle or lower incomes struggling to pay medical costs, or go without.
So what do Americans pay for private cover for a family?..... If I remember correctly we were paying approximately $2000 aud for a family of 6 and when I looked into for myself only it was approximately $600 a year as a single person.
The reason our life expectancy is a little lower than Europe's is because we are too fat.
If broken down into ethnic groups, many of our groups would show better results than the same ethnic groups in other countries.
I reckon within about a year I could be around a 5 on your scale. There's still a bit more work to do. I don't think I'll ever be the most exciting and stimulating guy around but I can do stuff to make my life a bit more interesting. That should become easier after I get more financially Independent, I can put more time over to leisure, etc. I think the main reason most adults social circle dwindles as they get older is that work starts to take over, both for them and them people they know.Trench may you explain how you count those 5 points?
I know that it can depend on finding the right fit rather than holding particularly stuff, but that of course you can be better placed and make the process easier.
I don't know what ideas FSW have of the WM they will meet and the lifestyle. I've heard some stuff from some of them. Some expect to be a kept women, others want to work, some have visions of a mansion perhaps, others something more common maybe.

Trench may you explain how you count those 5 points?
Davo-
I am always mystified by these talking points. There is no healthcare problem in the US. Contrary to what foreigners may have 'read', our healthcare was, and is, doing fine. It was better even BEFORE Obamacare.
The US population had always enjoyed not having the government make decisions for them. The larger portion of our society get their medical coverage from their employment. The smaller one, those mostly who work for themselves, buys coverages for themselves as part of the cost of doing business. There are those who choose not to 'buy' it, or of bare minimum of coverages. Those, more times than not, are whom is reported to face dire financial challenges.
I think you meant to say *cost of health insurance* not cost of health care. On average, Obamacare costs roughly about $400.00/person per month. Roughly less than $5,000.00/year. This also depends on the program you choose. This is extracted from their pay before tax are levied as the taxable sum. The rest of the cost of this coverage is picked up by the employer. This 'coverage' includes dental, vision, and life insurances. The alternative to Obamacare, and most companies also provide, is what they call PPOs. It's slightly pricier but better in so many ways, IMO.
Before Obamacare, you can 'see' a/your physician literally the same day. Most of the times, an appointment can be made within days, but never more than a week. Since Obamacare kicked in, your appointment can take up to weeks/months now. That's one BIG STUPID law levied upon the millions just to suck up the 700 billion in 3 years. Before Obamacare, an employee didn't even have to pay anything for medical coverages. Companies had competitive medical coverages as part of employment benefits to lure/keep topnotch employee/s.
There are just as many uninsured people before this stupid law was forced upon us, than there are today. The only real difference is, $700 billion of taxpayers money disappeared into thin air.
Treatment for pre-existing conditions is what many people faced before that cost a lot of families financial drain. But this was politically used front and center to sell Obamacare and it shouldn't have been. Pre-existing condition could've been legislated and passed without having to screw up our health care system.
Davo, if our country could provide *free* health care to millions of illegal aliens, and they have, it certainly can provide for millions of it's citizens.
Again, the US do not have any healthcare problems. If that had been the case giant insurance companies like AETNA/BlueCross/Blue Shield wouldn't exist today and thriving.

It's not a system but something that came to mind reading Trench's post.
Is this your own system RWD?.....
A busboy? £25k is good money in the UK, at least standard, if not
more so. Of course it depends on expenses, state benefits etc.
Trench, I want to go all Moby and say negative things to you.
That is not a wage for an adult with a brain. That wage is for
somebody who lives in their mothers basement and smokes
pot all day long, then goes to the 7-11 and works behind the
counter for 6 hours per day, then goes home.
Google Median Income in the UK.
You have to decide if you want to be a loser or not as does
your friend. There is no chance that your friend can be successful
unless he doubles his income.
It's not a system but something that came to mind reading Trench's post.
I'd self assess as a 4 or 5, as I've taken a hit financially in the last 12 months and has had a massive impact on my life/lifestyle. If I get my work and finances sorted I'll bounce back up (though wouldn't mean I'd pursue a woman local or international, I have an extremely busy and enjoyable life and not sure I'd prioritise a relationship at the expense of other things).
My guess is Trench is currently in negative territory, I did say critically self-assess. It's supposed to be a way to give yourself a reality check, not a delusional affirmation.
My guess Pat is around the 7 or 8 mark but isn't looking for a good woman, but rather a good time. Nothing wrong with that but you attract certain types of people by your attitudes and actions.

:ROFL:
So good thing I got my Gal trapped some time ago.
Bill this isn't the US, competition for jobs is very tough even for £25k. The type of job you describe would doubtless earn half that, around £12k for doing six hour shifts weekdays in a 7/11.
Sometimes when I think back, it amazes me at how times changed in a relatively short time. I still remember 'surviving' on a $1.65/hr
Trench, you’ve said you have the capacity to make more money, why aren’t you putting that plan into action now?....This is the ideal time. You’re single with no commitments and time rich. If you succeed and marry a FSU woman, I suspect you won’t have that luxury for the first few years as she will be dependant on you not only financially, but emotionally. You having to work (12-14 hour days) because you suddenly realise that having a wife who doesn’t work is more expensive than you realise, isn’t good for a new relationship.
I’m not boasting or trying to put you down, but just give you an idea of what it takes to more than double an income quickly. I wake at 5:45am and work until 3:30pm in my engineering job for another company. 4:00 - 5:00 I spend time with my kids and prepare dinner for them. Then I start in my business (luckily it’s based at home) and I work until 8pm minimum.... often 10pm. Putting in the hours has started paying off and I have a lucrative contact with a local performance part supplier. Depending on the job I’m doing for them I can make very good money. I also work one day a weekend. Sunday I worked 12 hours, produced 60 components and grossed $1500 US for the day. This is my biggest money spinner atm so I don’t make that much all the time but it shows what’s possible by putting in the hours and working hard
Becoming financially successful takes bloody hard work, long hours and commitment. No FSU women or any woman would accept the hours i’ve been doing. If I’m luckily enough to marry a woman from any country, I’ll be in a good position with my business that I can leave my engineering job and have a better family life.
I’m a blue collar worker and that makes absolutely no difference to 99% of women. As long as you can provide a comfortable life they don’t care. If it takes borrowing money to get your truck licence and make good money don’t let the “blue collar” label h increold you back. It’s not a disadvantage in the dating game.
I appreciate your input Davo, Well I'm doing stuff to increase my income, it's just taking a bit longer than I originally hoped. I've been converting my house from a one bed to a three bed outside of my job. Unfortunately some of the tasks took a lot longer than first thought but now I'm making progress quite smoothly and should be done by about June this year. The upshot is that the value of my house will more than double and I will be able to rent out a couple of rooms to Lodgers. I can then mortgage this property and buy another and do the same by doing this I should be able to bring in s monthly income of £500-£1k after mortgage & costs Independant of my job. I will then probably chuck in my job and look to achieve more Independant income, probably online if possible.Trench you make good points there, I wish you to continue to hit the gym and to go full throttle for your real estate project.
Like you Davo I realised that there is both the money side and the lifestyle side. A guy that brings in the money but is lacking in any sort of lifestyle as he is working all the time is not likely to be fair well in his relationship with a FSW as she is unlikely to find the lifestyle much fun of spending a lot of time apart from the guy she is supposed to be with. The two together money and time for lifestyle tend to entail more input that working the 9-5 job or whatever and likely mean a move into some form of business to get away from the 9-5.
Honestly though most guys in the UK do the 9-5 type of jobs and not at great money, it's the standard around here. The way the tax system works here is that you get about £12.5k tax free. After that you lose about a third of your pay in tax, that's a heavy hit and means that a £35k job while still getting good money in is not as lucrative as it first may sound. So they key at least as far as I see it is trying to gain income in the most tax efficient manner. You're right though Davo as a single guy this is the best time to work at getting a good income coming in. I don't mind putting in the work just sometimes it doesn't happen magically as quickly as hoped for.
Trench you make good points there, I wish you to continue to hit the gym and to go full throttle for your real estate project.
Spend more time in this damned house to finish asap the work that has to be done and less time here.
Don't complain about the tax system in UK, because in France it's largely worse.
Women in a way would like to enjoy with huby a nice life style that less and less men can offer, while those women stay at home. This damned western culture is full of people that have a lot of fun but you have noticed that you never see them working. Films, videos ...
Of course every people enough serious to be a real adult knows that is a joke, but this "culture" is rotting the mind of many. Women here have an advantage, they benefit more than men of the social standards, which allows them to be supported.
