For sure. I posted in another forum here how the only women who chase this wealthy guy I know are wealthy women. They are aggressive and seem to feel entitled because they see him as a peer. He however prefers dating women that he actually likes, and he does not enjoy being pursed by snotty entitled rich women. Successful women are the biggest gold diggers of all. Money seeks money.

We would do better to spread it around a little anyway. Money marrying money just leads to greater disparities of wealth and more poverty. I have no problem with a rich person dating or marrying a poor person, as long as both are sincere. The modern day assumption seems to be that they cannot be sincere.

I wouldn't mind having a sugar mama. I'm pretty enough to get one.

If you think THAT'S "nasty" you should read what was posted about "successful women":

Lol, ok. It seems it's always about lower income men and women being suspect so there is another view. It IS snotty when women will only date men who make more money than they do. For a wealthy woman, that really narrows the field.

Too many people limit their options. No one is entitled, if they are smart, rich, attractive, etc, doesn't necessarily make them desirable to everyone.

Agreed. While I may make more money than some women, the men I met made more than I did (unanimously) not because I picked only men with more money, but men who have the same education, experience, always seem to make more more money. I guess I make about the same as a construction worker though, which is good, but I don't know any construction workers with 6 years of college.

Times are changing, luckily, someday more women can be comfortable running heavy equipment or doing labor intensive jobs. They may be welcome to do that instead of being at a desk.

Whether we're looking for one or not, men just seem to make more money.

I have met men with minimal assets who thought everyone wanted to take them for their two bedroom house and Toyota Corolla. I never thought anyone I dated was after my "stuff".
Yes, of course; for guys with the gold-digger paranoia, all those are risky.

He said: "Guys with jobs have dicks too, ya know."



He used that kind of language with his niece?

Yeah. She's 25. We were all playing Cards Against Humanity. Not an easily offended bunch.
