Nina Sundén & Sebastian Siemiatkowski (Klarna Billionaire)

This is Nina Sundén (40), the wife of the Swedish-Polish Klarna co-founder & CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski (40) who has a 10% stake in a $46 billion start-up. Euro ladies likely have used his service online-shopping. So how did they meet?

Quite traditionally: They went to the same prestigious business school in Stockholm, Sweden, he first saw her there and considered her an “extremely good-looking, super-smart girl, and I felt like the biggest nerd in history, so I would never dare talk to her.” (https://www.wsj.com/articles/klarna-ceo-sebastian-siemiatkowski-home-11632400195) As the story goes, they reconnected a few years later at a costume party and started dating. Taking their presented story with a grain of salt (she’s a marketer, lol), these things remain:

1. Nina is good-looking, tall, thin, fit not skinny, with a natural, outdoors-y, unassuming look: A quintessential girl-next-door. Not a bombshell or baddie. Interestingly, a brunette in a country known for its (light) blondes, though this probably doesn’t mean anything.

2. Nina is an interesting personality. She is passionate about photography, including wildlife photography and has charitable interests e.g. creating a lion wildlife photography book, selling it and donating its $200,000 profits to conservation efforts in the region. That’s impressive. She also enjoys travel and likes architecture and interior design (their house is decorated by her.) Little more is known about her because she is quite private with no public social media and I couldn’t find English profiles written about her. Maybe there is more in the Swedish news.

3. Nina is a highly-skilled professional. After graduating from a top-ranked business school (Stockholm School of Economics), she worked as a head of marketing at a smokeless tabacco company for five years. Sebastian respected her skills so much he asked her for help: She ran Klarna’s marketing for a time and is credited with making it more attractive to it’s millenial customer base.

4. Nina is a family person but doesn’t seem overly traditional. They have three children. Interestingly, by the time they married they’d already had a toddler. This indicates flexibility. Since start-up founders are notorious for over-work, she (and possibly familial or hired support) will have had and continue to have the lion’s share (ha!) of the child-rearing. We don’t know if she currently works or if she actually kept her name or took his.

______________________________________________________________

There is little information about her to come by. These are my conclusions:

1. Looks are not everything. You just need to be good-looking “enough”, as a wise tumblr-user once put it. Then your character becomes a priority.

2. This is NOT a case of hypergamy, as technically/arguably he was a lower social class than her during their courtship (child of poor, Polish immigrants who did menial work). Presumably, Nina is at least middle-class or very good at faking it because her hobbies are unrealistically expensive. It likely took time till he outearned her.

3. I need to get in the room where it happens! Access trumps all else. After all, they just went to the same school, no great maneuvering required. How can I shape my daily life to put me in the same spaces?

4. I need make sure to have actual, useful skills to benefit my partner (in addition to beauty, eroticism and my natural interests). I’ll get back to you on what they will be.

Questions I have:

Sebastian is a Polish refugee. Going by her classically Swedish last name, one might assume Nina’s family and history is anchored in Sweden. Was part of her allure the social recognition he’d receive being with an All-Swedish girl?

Did her network matter? Raising start-up funds includes a round for investments from friends and family. Did she have pull in that area? Was there financial benefit to associating/being with her?

Was there a time during which Sebastian lacked funds and she supported both of them with her corporate salary? How flexible are the gender roles, especially since Sweden is touted as the most enlightened and progressive country on the continent?

Don’t hesitate to share your thoughts, please! :)

Also I never got to post this. I love the sound of new bills 😭

I am now taking resumes for a bitchy, slightly possessive gf who will buy me coffee & tell me I’m pretty every waking second.

Ignore the crusty nails, but Ive been busy with work & other life things. Recently saw Mr. Green Eyes & he told me to never feel weird about him giving me things because he sees them as gifts & a way of helping me with anything I may want. We’ve both been busy but he managed to come see me for a couple of hours. Planning another trip soon& this will be the third time we’ve seen each other since vegas. He constantly tells me that he worries I’ll become interested in someone else & I think its the sweetest thing ever. He also asked me for a xmas list but I have no clue what to even ask for?? I know some ppl would be annoyed at me not asking for more now but I have a plan and things take time. Im not on this for something short term & Im laying the ground work for something with so much potential. Im talking being a kept wife. This guy is a business man & has been very vocal with supporting his future wife & kids with a very comfortable & promising future. I will always have my independence but to be in a position to have things more easily acceptable is the cherry on top. I cant believe I ever begged a “man” for his time.

Xoxo

Stay happy
