      But just being wealthy or from a wealthy family does not make someone guilty of all the wrongs the wealthy bring to society, & no one should be judged or persecuted for things they didn't do, period. Too many just can't see beyond their own prejudice & resentment.

      I am lower middle class and started a degree where I realised I am from by far the poorest family. Seems like everyone I interact with has a family that all went to private school and has at least a couple million in assets. It was very jarring hearing about their holidays or their family drama and I went to a friends house and was blown away by how nice it was. I have another friend who is more wealthy than me but his girlfriend’s family is another financial bracket and he says he can’t keep up with their expenses for gifts and holidays. Crazy to think about.

If you're in a position where you can possibly make more money than you do today, get a prenup. I don't care if you're a man, a woman or non-binary, gold diggers are gold diggers, protect yourself.

      Seriously!!!! like they weren’t joking they made op THE joke and the joke was she’s stupid that he has fooled. I’m very sarcasm, cheeky and pull “macho like humor” like oh man I have to marry a Victoria secret supermodel oh no my life is sooo horrible. But to “joke” about conning her like man I got her the “stupid bitch” fooled and once I marry them I’ll be set for life and after 3 years I can be free of “trust fund Barbie” which is just degrading like she’s isn’t a person worth being in a relationship with if not for her money. Like that’s her only redeeming quality to brings to the relationship. And calling her stupid because she isn’t doing a prenup, when she wasn’t because she loved and trusted him!
      It all sounds like a movie villain taking off his disguise and revealing their evil master plan to the hero. Defiantly not the only time he spoken like this and others felt comfortable to join in with him in tearing down her character in doing so. If it was a joke he and them would do it in front of op or like explain it, not hide and deny it and not hide the girls being over!
      I can’t imagine how poor op felt hearing it all like it would’ve made me feel sick to stomach if I was in her shoes and she was already sick! It’s like he was actually saying I don’t love or value her, yeah what a funny “joke”

      The only bright side is OP found out before marrying him, someone like that would likely sabotage birth control if it would get them more money. She'll probably have some trust issues after this, but at least he didn't get what he wanted.

      @@catT5236 true he is very narcissistic with it always being about him and how he feels. Like him bragging about how he got a “trust fund Barbie” and them calling him the man and congratulating him. And then when she upset about his “joke” never really saw what he did was wrong like why she would be upset and actually apologize to her. He only did after his defense of playing the victim and gas lighting her the bad guy didn’t work, switching to finally apologize but only to stop the fight and shut her up.
      And saying he “needed to think everything through” and leaving seems like a emotional blackmail or something by threatening to break up with her over how “horrible” SHE was being to him?! It really is all about him I mean going to her sister’s place after in a panic realizing she heard (probably paranoid and panicked about what else they said that night wondering since this isn’t the 1st time they talk about her and like this.
      Then to react like a spoiled & hormonal teenager in a fight with op like she’s his mom, that after being terribly hurt by this and lost her trust feeling betrayed and conned by him and breaking it off claims she’s spying on him & ruining his life. Like she overheard them because they were so loud. Wtf ruining his life because he’s being evicted from her (I assume) realllllllly nice home he doesn’t pay bills for (I assume because he’s middle class and not advanced in his career) because of how rich she is the prices being out of his range. Her dad is buying him out so he’s ok job wise which he only got because of her. He sounds as narcissistic as he is materialistic, probably though of himself already rich planning on buying things like yachts and such and what a rich life and partying planned out doesn’t even need to work.
      Yeah Thank god she found out before and did this before marrying but I really wonder like what was his plan once they were married? With a reaction like that on the prenup he didn’t seem to think they would last yet felt he entitled to her family’s money and life!
      And women should do prenups even if they have nothing because “prenups can also cover other issues like incapacity, death, student debts, estate planning, spousal support, and a myriad of other legal concerns. One primary reason you may choose to sign a prenup is to customize the rules of marriage best suited for you and your partner.” So just because ur getting one doesn’t mean u get nothing with some made where if they have children and don’t work to raise them get X amount amount other things like that!

    I tutor on the side, and have taught some kids of wealthy families. Here's the thing, the kids behave based on the way they are raised and the parents own behavior. If the parents spoil them, give them little to no boundaries and use the kids to brag to their friends about what they have given the kids, then the kid suck as much as their parents do. However, if the wealthy parents are decent people who treat others with respect and courtesy, and instill manners in their kids, and set expectations and boundaries for the kids then those kids turn out to be decent people who find their own success in or outside the family business.

    More so than a prenup protecting one partner who has more assets or is in a position to earn much more in the short future, a prenup can stipulate a lot actually and can help *both sides benefit* and stay protected. It’s smart to cover your bases, it’s *wise* to understand that people (including yourself) are not impervious to change, and it’s similar values that make people try to stick together.

You don't just make disparaging remarks about somebody you supposedly love for shits and giggles. Who in their right mind would even think that that was funny, let alone appropriate?

You do not need to be manipulated any further or tell him anything.

    After update: Happy he can be evicted and out of your life. I love that you (Trust-fund Barbie) used the suggestion of how to give him the kiss-off, LOL. What a complete and total POS he revealed himself to be. Best wishes going forward.
    2) Nice you rid yourself of pests. I think it's too bad you didn't tell the worker that tent of strangers was on your site so they could have been made to leave right away, late and in the dark, that would have been fun for them.

Even if Mark was only being macho/joking around with friends, a decent man would not speak about his fiance that way & would not let his friends talk about her that way. "Trust fund Barbie" was bad enough but "stupid bitch" and the other things? Wow. No respect for her whatsoever. I'm so glad her family was supportive instead of pulling "I told you so". Also kudos to OP for sending the "trust fund Barbie" message to confirm that she didn't just imagine it in a fever dream. She's absolutely right to cut him loose like that. Man, how many toxic idiots were replying to this post to shit on OP for her decisions that she had to keep making all those updates? WTF? He participated in badmouthing her & didn't defend her & bragged about only having to wait 3 years to be "free" and then got mad about a prenup. She listened to her gut. He's the one who acted like an ass, not OP. Lost Genre, thank you for having OP's back in this one. Other people on reddit were not getting it.
    Story 2: LOL. Complainers couldn't even bother to come out and ask the people to maybe lower their voices please as they were too loud. Or maybe, move farther away... Yeah, idiots. Liked how OP handled it.
    Story 3: Overtime "privileges". Man, I hate big companies with policies like this. Make people work overtime but then punish them for it. It's like Walmart's policy of writing up employees for leaving for bathroom breaks when no one is there to fill in for them (without scheduling anyone to fill in for them) but also writing them up if they DON'T take that bathroom break. Lose/Lose situation. I would have been petty & refused to do overtime shifts after that, but that's me. I have friends and family who work/worked at Walmart who talk about how they understaff & how managers asked people to work off the clock to avoid having the overtime thing going. When my brother worked at Pizza Hut, his boss would lie to younger employees & tell them if they worked off the clock for a few hours one week, he'd let them take more time off the next week & give them the hours then-- with them not knowing that it was illegal AF & that they would be making overtime pay if they worked on the clock. But, the boss would just go in to the computer and change the hours in the system to claim they worked fewer hours than they actually did if they worked overtime (if they refused to work off the clock) to screw them out of the pay anyway. He also put that he worked hours when he wasn't there to steal even more $.

    I see this is old but want to share that I vaguely remember a similar story on Reddit years ago. Both stories had a woman from a wealthy family with a successful family business; both stories had the wealthy woman having her own ambitions and being engaged to a man whose family made significantly less money but he seemed intelligent and ambitious; both stories the woman’s Dad who owned and ran the business ended up hiring the woman’s fiancé and he excelled at the company and steadily got promoted. Lastly both stories had the woman finding out the man was a gold digger. There was also the concern about how to get rid of the man in the family business.
    Here’s where the stories were different. In this particular story there was no reason to offer the man a generous payout. This man happened to not only be dishonest in his personal life, he was dishonest in his professional life too. The Dad and other people at the company found proof of some kind of fraud on the gold digging fiancé’s part and were able to legitimately fire him.
    While hearing this story I wondered if this was the same story and was waiting for that to happen. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mark wasn’t scheming to defraud the company if he hadn’t already. Better for OP and her family to cut their losses.
