Top10point5 Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Are you the type of women who only dates men making a certain amount of money? and why do you think that just because a guy is making more money he will treat you better? The reason I am asking is because I was reading this article and they gave tips to women on how to get money from men. I have been noticing that a lot more women are becomming golddiggers, I thought women wanted to be independent. Heres the article about how to get money from men: http://www.top10point5.com/2011/07/top-105-how-to-get-money-from-men.html
KR10N Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 I would never accept money from anyone. It's like respect, it must be earned.
sm1tten Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Hahaha wtf, is this serious? Is this even possible? How can you be by yourself, yet social, at the same time? I see young women scamming for drinks at the more popular bars from time to time, but I don't run in a crowd of monied men to be taken advantage of I guess. The funny thing is that I have a former friend who signed up on one of those sugar daddy sites... thought she landed herself a catch, went and caught feeling for him before they even met. Hee f*cked and dumped her on their first and only date, didn't even put her in a cab the next day - although it was a swanky hotel. Sucker. I wonder if he was even rich?
Enchanted Girl Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 First of all, not all women care about being independent. Golddiggers don't. Secondly, I've actually yet to date a guy who makes more than a minimum wage and I make the same.

I know there are women that care about money, but I can honestly say I dont give a sh*t about how much money a guy has. I do think its important that he has a job, but I dont care about the money. In fact, if I ever get married, I would never want my husband two pay more than I do, its unfair.
Queen Zenobia Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Gold is such an overrated metal. Shouldn't smart young women be digging for platinum instead?

It should be called: 'sitting on your ass waiting for someone to fall out of the sky and give you everything he has, and than not be gratefull!'
Finch Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 The "article" is ridiculous, and is aimed at a certain type of woman with a specific goal. Gold-digging focuses only on the income and lifestyle of the man and ignores all other qualities. The flip side is that a relationship also cannot survive on affection alone. In a serious relationship I want to be with someone who is earning enough to support themselves, not someone who consistently struggles to scrape together the money to keep a roof over their head. Relationships need balance and that means both people ideally should be able to pull their weight financially.
Mrlonelyone Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 I just dropped in to point out the ultimate gold digger video. Kanye really said it.

All the men I've dated were struggling to keep a roof over their heads. I don't disrespect them for that because they work as hard as men who make several times the amount of money they do, they just don't have the opportunities those men do. That being said, I don't date men who don't understand responsibility at all and broke up with a guy who told me that he handled bills by "running away from them" and hadn't had a job in years.
Feelsgoodman Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 One big mistake that a lot of rookie gold-digger’s make is to sleep with a guy too early. Believe it or not, there are guys who will still spend money on you even if you don’t sleep with them; they just enjoy your company. Before you ever sleep with a rich guy make sure that he has spent some cash on you. I’m not talking about just paying for dinner; I’m talking about spending a couple of thousands of dollars on you. This is the reason I always stop dating girls if they are taking too long to put out. If she's attracted to you, she should be willing to have sex after a couple of dates. Otherwise, she's probably a gold digger.

Feelsgoodman Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Thats the weirdest thing I've ever heard. Nothing weird about it. There plenty of women who think that a guy should spend some money on them before they "give it up".
LoveandSuch Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 As opposed to a dumpster diver? Then, yes, I am a gold digger. I do not ever wish to live in a trailer or drive an old Geo. It all comes down to personal preference, style, taste, and what lifestyle you are accostumed to, plus desires. There are women who desire men in dirt covered jeans who drive old Broncos, clean up with lye soap, and splash on Old Spice or Brute. Then there are women who desire men who dress in tailored suits, enjoy fine wine, and fine dining. You could classify a true golddigger as a women without the means or class to appropriately meet and date men with money naturally, but attempt in an all out hunt for a rich man, there desperateness is openly apparent and extreme, they usually lack taste, class, and hunt a rich man regardless if they are remotely attracted to him. at all. They will settle for fat, old, stinky men if he has the cash. They are ONLY attracted to his money. There are men who make a great income who enjoy their women spending their money, not all men class women as golddiggers if the women enjoy and are accustomed to the finer things in life. There is nothing wrong with enjoying this, but the importance lies in if you love your partner for all his attributes, not just his money.
KathyM Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 While it may be nice to have a guy with money, there's so many more important things to consider in a man. Character is what I value in a man the most. Then personality, then appearance/attractiveness, then zest for life, then work ethic, then a number of other things. How much money he has comes pretty low on the list for me. My husband was a broke college student when I met him and when I married him. So was I. So many more things more important in life than money. While there are certainly women who think that is THE #1 consideration when looking for a man, I am not one of those women. I live by the philosophy in the Bible: Don't place your value in money, because it has the wings of an eagle, and often doesn't last.
LoveandSuch Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Hi, I have noticed men who hate women use this term and it is used toward woman they have no chance on earth hooking up with, and they label them in spite.
LoveandSuch Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Spiderman have you considered goverment housing and assistance. You could also further your education, therefore, your earning potential will increase along with the choice for better housing conditions.

rafallus Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 This site also has a list, how to cheat on gf, without getting caught. Safe to assume this is a troll site.

Your reply shows that you are grounded and comfortable with who you are and know what you like and dislike.
Feelsgoodman Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) You could classify a true golddigger as a women without the means or class to appropriately meet and date men with money naturally Interesting (and quite telling) that you say "without the means or class", not "without the means and class". There are men who make a great income who enjoy their women spending their money, not all men class women as golddiggers if the women enjoy and are accustomed to the finer things in life. There is nothing wrong with enjoying this, but the importance lies in if you love your partner for all his attributes, not just his money. Right . The premise of your post seems to be that only women who lack sophistication and class can be gold diggers. A "cultured" woman with a taste for finer things in life cannot be a gold digger by definition (and I bet you see yourself as one of those "cultured" women). That's akin to distinguishing between a balaclava-clad, shotgun-wielding bank robber and a high level executive stealing money from investors, and saying that the former is a criminal and the latter is not, because the latter is much more sophisticated in his methods.

Yes, you interpreted my post as i intended and society obviously does not agree with your philosophy. White collared criminals go to white collar prisons where they are treated with much more dignity than those in Labor prisons. They are view and treated much differently. I do not get your argument. Many never make it into the prison system because of the old good boys club.

LoveandSuch Posted July 31, 2011 Posted July 31, 2011 Sorry there is no clear cut black and white as thatone describes. Going OT in response to white vs blue collar criminals, if they were both considered the same, the same as in both are criminals, there would be no segregation of prisons. The law is clearly stating that white collared criminals deserve MUCH better treatment than blue. They are different, as I stated, in regards to women who are only looking for money and those accustomed to money. And, thatone also brought up a good point some women come across money unintentionally and may be brought up middle class, and can enjoy the finer things in life and not be a golddigger.
