As far as "golddiggers" are concerned, look at all the men in Hollywood with money and Hugh Hefner for that matter. Men with money want women who look like prostitutes. They certainly aren't after them for their brains (no offense to all you rocket scientists from The Girls Next Door show, how's that playboy mansion treatin' ya are ya'll studying astrophysics in your lingerie??? LOL!!!!)!!!!! Kelsey Grammer married a stripper. For her brains, people!!!! And she certainly wasn't after him for his money, he's just sooooo good lookin' and all, I'm sure she was independently wealthy from her strip club earnings before she met him.
What the crap.

You're seriously going to base everything off of Playboy girls?

And why do you assume that men with money want women who look like prostitutes. I'm going to guess that my "prostitutes" you mean sleazy looking? Regardless of the prostitute comment, so what if they want pretty girls? ALL men want pretty girls! Fact of life. Sure, they want other stuff too, but attractiveness isn't a dealbreaker.

And I like Kelsey Grammar. Hell, I'd go on a date with Bill Murray and he is not the greatest looking thing out there (or the youngest).

Thumbs down I must be a golddigger!

Oh, my! I have to be a golddigger. After I was divorced and before I began a social life again I decided upon some absolutes regarding any woman I might consider for a long-term relationship. Chief among was the fact that she had to be long-term employed with her own retirement program.

Guess that makes me a golddigger, huh?

Not much, if any. They both get screwed in the end!

Wait! That is not completely true. It should be obvious by now as much as I have posted thoughts through time in threads like "voluptuous" "curvy" "thick" and the other similar threads that my tastes in women are not necessarily in step with what most society deems as universally pretty, like Miss USA or Miss universe pageant types. Although my tastes are actually more common than people seem to think...I think.

But ugh.....you would go out with Kelsey or Murray hmmm?, too bad a guitar player type who is witty, nice, and blah blah blah is a deal breaker because of long hair though.

It is not the same as when a woman wants a decent date

Odd your mind went there.

Mine thought "It IS the same, if she wants a really, really nice date, at a nice place, with a hot guy who isn't afraid to spend plenty of money to show her a pampered-good time but her only investment IS her time."

If this woman doesn't like this man, doesn't want this man and just wants him to spend money on her (lots of money).
But again, it's not the same if I'm dating a guy I like and want to invest myself into him and take it to the next level and want a decent date.

Well the way I see it the guy doesn't desecrate the sanctity of marriage by marrying a woman who he knows only marries him because of wealth and status and not true love, and that he is marrying because her smoking hot body more than anything.

But instead respects what true love is and that is what marriage is for and if that isn't happening instead full fills needs in a more honest open situation, plus not risking a heavy ugly divorce.

If any guy asks himself the question that "would she want me if I wasn't filthy rich" and the answer is no than he shouldn't marry the woman. Be true to himself about the situation and if he wants hot times with a choice piece than just do the other route. At least there is friggin honesty that way.

Or, neither of the above and find true love which means a guy who is 65 realizing that a 22 year old model isn't going to be "real" and that a 50 or 60 year old woman might be.

Given THAT criteria, then THAT wouldn't be the same thing as "a woman wanting a decent date". We've given entirely opposite scenarios, both of which still meet the parameters of the sentence.

Okay, you are right. I guess I was still a little heated from the discussion that if I want a decent date in a decent restaurant and expect my man to pay, then I must be a gold-digger.

come on people...i met many golddiggers in my life,come not from a poor familly,the opposite ..i had the chance to meet many rich people in my life thanks to it..

to tell you the truth...why you always blame the golddiggers?????do you wnat to tell me that a 50 years old rich man with a 30 young woman does not know ,what he is doing????of course the man knows!!!and he enjoys her young body and showing up with his young gf..come on..why you always blame the women????blame the men!!!!IS HE BETTER????let me tell you something..he is not better!!

i do not believe golddiggers are like prostitutes...i met many ,smart,beautiful women,who simply love money and luxurious things and are happy,they really are..you can not compare a cheap prostitute with something like this..come on..and come on,be honest..show me a woman,who does not like money..i am a woman and i do not believe it...all women like money in a certain way...and american women,oh my God....they love to spend..i have never seen women,who love to spend money like american women do!!!

MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND!!and in usa is ALL ABOUT money..!!!that is the truth...you have money in usa,you are somebody,you have no money,you are NOBODY!!!!!NOBODY!!!nobody helps you in this state..you lose your job,your house,your car,nobody cares..the state does not help you like in Germany for example

their is a saying in my country...if teh fox does not reach teh grapes,he says:the grapes are sour...do not make the poeple bad,who choose this life,it is their problem...the comparation is not realistic...

As a female, I have to disagree with you. When I think of "financially secure", I'm thinking that the guy has a stable job and isn't living paycheck to paycheck. If somebody wanted someone who earned an above average income, they would write "Financially Well Off" or possibly "Financially Comfortable".

Nobody wants to start a relationship when someone is already struggling, regardless of why that may be.
