What in the world are you talking about? Most successful people you know get honeypotted by their high school crush? How did you determine it was a honeypot and not just a regular divorce? This doesn't come off like a genuine insight into how the world works, this looks like someone determined to only view women as temptress succubi.

Maybe speak for yourself.
That principle works for anyone with means to seize.
Believing that is the first step to a compromise. This principle works for anyone period.
Just think everyone should consider the possibility that no one really needs the head of R&D. For good intelligence agencies, the guy who does low level IT will do nicely thank you very much.
No one, man or woman, grows closer to being a 10 as they age. So if you work for some of these critical companies and your perfect man or woman shows up, you should be on your guard.
TBH if I was higher up the chain of command, I'd actually give less fucks. If I have a mortgage I cannot afford to lose job or money so I'm on guard because I'm one failed marriage away from homelessness. But if I have ten million dollars to my name, and a Chinese spy shows up then what exactly do I have to lose? If the company kicks me out then good riddance, I can already retire to perfect comfort and nobody can take away the memory of spending a year with a 10/10 partner.
You just need to know few people to qualify for "multiple times"
Just saying that being a startup founder is not particularly rare or special the past twenty years. You don't even have to do particularly well with your startup. People probably get targeted for a measly 750K exit. I think on HN we get a twisted opinion of what is big money to most people.
>"a measly 750K exit"
No kidding, lol.
You say this like 2/3 of divorce is the fault of women, but IME they usually have good reason to do so.
Divorce implies involvement of a government institution and women feel like a fish in water when it comes to bureaucracy, while men avoid it
That's why in same-sex pairs women are twice likely to call cops and file a lawsuit regarding house abuse and men half as often
And let’s face it, nerds are especially vulnerable.
On the chance that I might one day become the CEO of a very important company, could you forward me my dream girl in advance? Thanks.
PH.
People in here are probably salty that they are not valuable enough to be targeted by some sexy Chinese spy.
- anyone with enough money to be targeted like this has enough money to get a prenup.
- most states do 50-50 custody these days unless one parent gives up their rights. So any child support would be decent, but not life-changing. Doubly so if the guy is rich enough to be targeted, in which case he's also rich enough to hire a good lawyer. The woman in this scenario has less money, so she can't get as strong a lawyer unless she's gambling that he'll have to pay her legal fees.
- With 50-50 custody the woman can't fly out of state to raise the kids, the court frowns on uprooting them from their hometown / school system.
The only way this makes sense is if the guy relinquishes all his rights to the kid, in which case he's hardly a hero either.
This isn't even considering the ridiculous notion that this woman has a man on the side just waiting for her to get knocked up with some millionaire's child.
The people in here acting like they would be immune to all this are kidding themselves.
