True. I take the tripes to paris riding around in a brand new lamborghini or throwing parties on yacht or something. I think men really thought this question through.

I respect your opinion but in my opinion if you can't find anything to do with limitless options in life..they I wouldn't blame the money.

Trips to anyplace in the world.
You could live nearly any place in the world.

Do anything.

Skydiving, visit 5 star restuarants, Canoeing whenever you want.

Vacatation is everyday for the rest of your life.

Buy any car you want.

Go to any museum, show whenver you want.

Your imagination is the limit.

Me personally I always wanted to go to Tokyo.

Love can always be bought, so I choose money.

You can buy sex, you can even buy commitment , you can buy someone who pretends to love you but sorry no money in the world can buy you love. Love is not a commodity. It is about the only thing on the planet which does not seem to be in fact.

I can't say I am surprised at most responses though. Money seems to be pretty much the only things on many people's minds apart from sex of course. Sad and depressing but hardly a shocker.

I'm a man and I chose true love..

An incurable illness with loads of money but no-one to spend your last days with or less money and someone that loves you to say goodbye to...

You choose..

When your a young rich guy,(or young guy in general tbh) you don't give a damn about "true love". If you can have sex with beautiful women, have the best cars in the world, great bachelor pad, travel the country and world, your good.

That's because those that have always been without tend to want what they never had.

Love is not something you 'feel'. That feeling? The tingle down your spine, the breath coming quickly and the hairs on the back of your neck standing up?

That's simple lust. And that fades, even if we try our best to keep it going.

Love is not a feeling. Love is a choice - You choose to love someone and be faithful to them. You choose to place their needs on par with your own(Not above. Love is not subservient.). Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is not jealous. Love is not proud. It is not self-seeking. It is not easily angered, nor does it keep record of wrongs. Love protects, trusts, hopes and perseveres.

All those things occur because you choose to love someone. You choose to be patient, to be kind. You choose not to be jealous, to not be proud, to not be self-seeking. You choose not to be easily angered and to forgive slights. You choose to protect, trust, hope and persevere.

Given the choice, I'd pick love, but one can have both because while money can be an accident, love never is.

I'd rather have the money since the "chance at true love" isn't a guarantee.

Most women say "Love" as their self esteem is based on having a man. A man, it is his career and making money.

Me, a women, I say money, I don't think there is such a thing as a one and only "True Love".
