luvtoto Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 I always think back to the movie, 'The Wedding Singer' (with Adam Sandler). That show hits on the marrying for money/fame topic. I know it's just a movie, but there's alot of truth to the plot. I'm a big movie buff. What can I say?
fraidycat Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 its ok toto-- I thought of the same thing too! ahaha.
Pyro Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 A guy can have money but it doesn't mean that woman will be attracted to him. He could be a total prick and have the worst personality. Any women attracted to that? I don't think so. Money isn't everything.
cal gal Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 She is serious WWIP! I was so surprised and I kept asking her and we both got into a 2 hour discussion. She really means it! Probably because she has an understanding that in order to survive in California that is about the minimum you need to earn, 200K might make you have a comfortable life here.... Why do you think we have so many households where two people need to work in order to support the family? Not saying it's right, just saying that's how it is....
BlahBlahQueen Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 A guy can have money but it doesn't mean that woman will be attracted to him. He could be a total prick and have the worst personality. Any women attracted to that? I don't think so. Some are. The crappy ones. That's why if you want a fulfillng relationship, you must donate all your assets to the salvation army and become a sidewalk musician.
fraidycat Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 I agree riddler! the only time a woman goes just for money is when she is brainless and so it doesn't matter if she's with a doofus because she can't think for herself either
Author noclobber Posted March 17, 2006 Author Posted March 17, 2006 OOH! burned! oh no.. I was only kidding! Fraidycat has already got my attention :love:
Author noclobber Posted March 17, 2006 Author Posted March 17, 2006 an @.com what? Im only human not a mind reader..lmbo...so what is it Forget about email... how does the term "private messaging" sound?
Pyro Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Some are. The crappy ones. That's why if you want a fulfillng relationship, you must donate all your assets to the salvation army and become a sidewalk musician. A couple of years back I was waiting in line to buy a ticket for this concert. It was a somewhat long line and I was worried that I wasn't going to be able to buy a ticket. I know, shame on me for waiting to buy a ticket at the door. There happened to be a sidewalk musician in front of the theatre and someone had thrown an extra ticket into his guitar case. He was kind enough to sell me the extra ticket and the show was great.
CaliGuy Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 I just came back from lunch with my 2 Indian colleagues (females) at work. We happened to talk about dating and marriage and I was surprised to no end when one of them said "I will not even consider dating a guy if he is earning less than $100,000 per year". I was curious and asked why does money have to come into the picture and she said that is very very important for love. I have to say that I was slightly attracted to this woman and thought about asking her out. But I have already lost whatever attraction I had for her.. I don't know whether I am wrong but I find this to be ridiculous... I just got a new job (yesterday) that is going to pay me $90,000 per year... but its still 10grand less I would like to know women's opinion about this. How important is money for you? I know why they do it, but to me it's also a total turn off. There's much more to a man than his wallet. I wonder if she'll stick with a guy who beats her like a dog just because he makes good money. Food for thought.

I wonder if she'll stick with a guy who beats her like a dog just because he makes good money. Food for thought. Exactly! I was into her until she opened her mouth and said "I will go for a guy only if he makes 100k or more". I understand women's need for security and the practical need of money but this was such a huge turn off.
Sassy Posted March 17, 2006 Posted March 17, 2006 Personally money isn't all that important to me as long as i can pay my bills i am happy!! Money can't buy you happiness . Love means more to me than money .
fraidycat Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 The term private messaging..ok privately message me sometime noclobber lmbo:laugh:
monkey00 Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Exactly! I was into her until she opened her mouth and said "I will go for a guy only if he makes 100k or more". I understand women's need for security and the practical need of money but this was such a huge turn off. personally i have a theory that gold diggers were spoiled when they grew up as a child by their parents, plus their insecurities. Basically what this screams is 'selling themselves for cash'....no different than buying a whore for a night.
Author noclobber Posted March 18, 2006 Author Posted March 18, 2006 The term private messaging..ok privately message me sometime noclobber lmbo:laugh: I just now tried to send you a PM but looks like you haven't enabled it You are breaking my heart fraidy
fraidycat Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Oh..well how do I enable it? do I have to have an upgraded acct. or something?
justagirliegirl Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 How would you ever know for sure someone wasn't just with you because of $?
BlahBlahQueen Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 Oh..well how do I enable it? do I have to have an upgraded acct. or something? NO! And please, for the love of God/Allah/Buddha/Zeus/Brahma/Ahura Mazda/whatever... GET A ROOM!
BlahBlahQueen Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 How would you ever know for sure someone wasn't just with you because of $? Three ways. A) You make sure you're broke as a joke. B) You make sure he/she doesn't have a penchant for material things. Words don't count at all. Actions do. C) You keep your job/income a secret. I had a contractor friend, very affluent... when ladies asked him what he did for a living, he would invariably answer that he was in construction. Completely honest, yet so misleading. He'd only fess up after months of dating them, after a connection had already been established. He had the best relationships ever; never caught a single golddigger, only the most down-to-earth women. Good-looking guy, too. Probably why he could get away with it.
neek Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 That chick is boring. Doesnt she have anything more exciting to look for in a guy? Seriously though...if we MUST talk about money...I must be on a different page than lots of gals...I'm trying my dang hardest to make AS much as my man so I don't feel like I'm slacking (alas, I'm miserably behind). I guess I have a warped perspective though. I kinda feel like the amount of money you earn is proportionate to how smart you are...and I went to two very good universities and STILL cant make that much so to me, it makes me feel like if Im not getting the money it's cause I'm not smart enough and that all that work I did means very little. Now, I know plenty of no so intelligent people can make tons of money and plenty of geniuses make little, but still...GRRR!! I just want to be able to be equal to him...and I'd LOVE to make more, even if just a teeny tiny bit. Ugh, that sounds bad, doesn't it, but it goes back to not feeling smart enough (he's pretty dang smart but I'm no dummy and want to be able to show that). It's really more about feeling adequately rewarded for what I can do, not as much about being a competition between him and I. I just want to make more than crap, a decent salary. Now that I really think about it, I'm okay with him making more, just as long as I can do pretty well myself. I liek to know I can totally support myself and my own needs without having to rely on someone else (just makes me feel like I need a crutch and I dont like that). Any other girls feel the same??
babbah Posted March 18, 2006 Posted March 18, 2006 you will definitely receive different responses from different women here. if you will ask me, money comes next. i need someone who will love me and assurance/security that we will be together forever. money? its so easy to earn money, i have my own money and i dont want to rely on his $$$...as long as we're together money is not a big deal. ok, i cant imagine marrying a rich guy if i am not sure that i am the only women in his life? i'd rather marry a pennyless guy who's love is true and a real honest person
