A 47-year-old former Wall Street trader who said he spent over $65,000 on professional matchmaking services over the past 12 years in a dead-end quest to find a wife, and publicly slammed the matchmakers, is now coming under fire.

He could have just hit up Brazil and hooked up with 1000+ chicks instead.

Greenfield, who could not be reached for comment, reportedly deemed all of the women he dated unsatisfactory, calling the matchmaking services a "rip-off" that over promised and under delivered.
"You pay them up front and they don't provide a service. They tell you how wonderful you are, whatever you want to hear,"


The article also mentions that he use to be a Wall Street trader. . . .


I guess he had the matchmaking service figured out early on since it takes one to know one. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

From the looks of the guy and all of the criteria that he requires for the woman he wants, it kind of sounds like he was expecting a miracle. FYI: miracles cost more than $65,000.

Let me guess. . . assuming he eventually found the "right" woman, he probably had a stipulation that she also be willing to sign a prenup.

I love what the match-maker said:

Quote:
"You can't say just because you have money that you deserve someone beautiful. I don't have gold-diggers in my program. Women are financially stable as well," Nelson said. "The girl that he said was terrible is married to a pharmacist right now."
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Ms. Nelson!
