Still, I want her to be loaded, and all her 5 trillion handbags laden with bullion fashioned from gold so i may waste it, erm i mean invest it, in the world muffin repository for my soul..erm sole devourment and pleasure. Thence I smelt the remainder (oi of the gold keep up) into the biggest thickest set of gold plated splendiferous slippers your eyes have ever beheld, briefly, as surely there magnificence would blind ye forever in there searing magnificence
* erm wicked you missed out corsets and boots in this one

If they can pend it to pay it off (on time) great, but if they can't nope it's not happening. People the budget their money properly is a bonus in my books because you have a plan and you stick to it. :-) | |

Posted: 7/15/2009 7:14:12 PM | | I don't think people look at income in profiles since it is not an audited field -- you can make up any silly thing you want to. Attitude toward money aligns with other aspects of living ones life -- if you don't believe in borrowing -- you will be more in tune with someone who is debt-free --- the friction inherent in dealing with someone with incompatible attitudes toward money does a lot to dissuade people from seeking others out simply for perceived financial gain. | |

Anyone can go through a rough patch. The more important thing is whether they're on the right track now, and whether they'll stay on that track.
If I were seriously involved with someone with money issues, and not absolutely sure about these things, I would put off getting married until I was. | |

Posted: 7/17/2009 6:06:55 PM | I challenge any man who's actually lived on the streets for any serious alone time to maintain capitalism.
The only government it attempts is choosing who to toss nuclear arms to and say go for it.
How important money is comes down entirely to your national economic system and individual political bends. That simple, in capitalist nations it is everything, with a lot of lying involved about it.
But yes, truth be told in socialist systems women attempt to "marry up" in terms of political influence instead. It's six of this and one half dozen of the other. All money in a manner of speaking. Theocracy is no better.
Maybe one day we'll try democracy. | |

Posted: 7/17/2009 6:22:19 PM | | Money is in deed important, however moderation proves to be even more so important. There are many needs in the use of money, however many people over eat, over obsess, and spend too much money in categories that in the end end up sabotaging the balance between other categories. Example~My father went out a while back and bought a whole crap load of perishable food, result~He did not have enough to pay the electric bill in full, secondary result~ the food went bad and because of that he had to spend some extra money on fresh food for each day until he had enough to turn the power back on. I do not care, even if you are rich, be wise with your money and be a spend thrift. Because of an effect similar to the postal effect, unless you are a monk and don't care for personal ownings, there is sort of a postal effect caused by stress that can come from not having anything nice, therefore to a certain extent, a little treat for yourself here and there (Nothing big or too extravagant) is also important to a certain extent. If you have an average income, good resources and excellent moderation, you should be fine. | |

vanaheim -
I guarnatee my life has been harder than yours and I'm all about capitalism. The problem you're having is that your whole life you have been told that the corporatism/communism that America runs on is capitalism. Nothing could be further from the truth. I don't think Adam Smith had a central bank (Federal Reserve) - owned by monarch shareholders - controlling creation of a nation's currency in mind when he wrote "Wealth of Nations".
America is 100% commie through central banking and "corporatism". Capitalism is non-involvement of the government, corporatism IS government involvement. The big Corporations you confuse with capitalism run the government that you think is going to save us. Read Ayn Rand, you could learn something.
I've lived on the streets and have EARNED every dollar I've made and so I've learned to appreciate money and what it represents. The fact that you haven't is a warning sign about your character. | |

| money?- rough times
Posted: 7/19/2009 4:55:02 AM | "through a very rough time financially. Would this bother you?"
Rough times tell us alot about a person. Are they a survivor? The saying "When the going gets tough, the tough get going" addresses this scenario.
These are difficult times, but I 'd rather see someone who stands tall and meets the "rough times" head on (gets an extra job, returns to work, rents out rooms) than someone who lets it overcome them and they become despondent, hopeless, forlorn (pick any word).....drinks, over eats, etc
The fighter, the survivor ....... would inspire me to want to get to know more about them and what makes them like this. | |

Posted: 7/20/2009 9:16:03 PM | | I have to laugh , when I hear " we live in a democracy" and " money isnt important" yet these are the same people lined up at the Lotto machine hoping to win it big, only to lose the money in a few years and start all over again. | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 5:54:39 AM | [QUOTE] So yeah, I'd say money is more important than anything else on a guy's profile :p [/QUOTE]
It may be hubris on my part, but, really, what are you missing sans that extra attention?
I keep a very comfortable apartment - do not want the responsibilities of house upkeep, and like on a riverside I could never afford otherwise. I have money to pay, and money to burn; the car's not a lexus, but its new, and I don't define myself by my transport. I can honestly say, blushingly, I deny myself nothing.
The thought of trying - or wanting to - pay the upkeep of some mad displaced dreams of avarice coming from someone who is supposed to be a partner sends chills down my spine.
The first rule is to thine own self be true; if a prospective partner can not or will not handle you on your own ground, they are not a prospective partner at all. There is no measurement or aptitude that person could possibly possess that would begin to make amends to the demands of their expectations.
Money is hardly important on my profile; I am who I am. I'm quite satisfied. Those who I don't hear from , I do not miss. | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 10:04:40 AM | I think money is important...I am used to a certain lifestyle, not that I can't adapt once in awhile. I don't have any debt, and live comfortable without having to work for a living. I don't expect anyone to support me and I'm more than willing to take turns paying for dates.
I would want to know before I got so emotionally involved, to the point of a LTR, to find out his financial status and end it because we weren't compatible finacially. | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 11:10:23 AM | | Money, The root of all evil in the world. Why? Because it simply exists to fuel greed. To more you have/make the more you get, The nicer things you will have. But the more you have the more others go without. Fueling a chain of sacrifice, violence, and so much else. If I had money, would I be happier. No. I would be me with more money. See I had a girl who said money is not a factor. As I have been out of work and it was a stipulation to being with me. Accept it or I can't accept you. So she accepted and a several months later being treated well, and being with someone who would give you the world if it possible, meant nothing it was time to be greedy. Loose "love" for money, a fancy car. Well I know she must be happier. And fact is I still send out 5 resumes a day and get nowhere. Play my guitar, work odd days and shifts, and write my music, I'm happy as a pig in shit. Just living my life with what I have. To the women who overlook my profile and think. Wow he must be a poor loser. Well I am the best god damn poor loser you will ever meet, if you would step off the shallow end and swim in the deep. You would see sometimes the things in life you really need are overlooked because, you worry to much what others think. Well think for yourself and realize were in a depression where men are mostly taking the fall, and as the unemployment rate slowly raises the men being counted out will soon be be on top. Thats when the nice guys will finish first. So how important is money, well to me.. It means nothing.... Its paper, silver and copper.. | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 11:52:13 AM | "Money is very important, a bad credit score is a major turn off."
I know! I hate it when the girl of my dreams was bouncing on my****screaming 472...472....472.....
"If one person has a bad credit score and marries that person then it will affects their credit score."
No it doesn't you nit wit! Credit scores do not change cause you get married. Some lenders average them out too or take one over the other after considering the credit history. Some use to give you the money even if you had collatoral and screamed "bankrupcy" while pounding you!!
"How do you build a credit history?"
By getting credit of course...now if you mean how do I build my credit score then (atleast in Canada) here are some tips:
-never use over 70-75% of the total credit available to you (this does not include mortgae backed credit lines) this means that even if you are paying your maxed out credit card on time you are still getting dingged on your score
- don't just send in the minimum...try to make 2 payments splitting up the month...this is done because the reporting agency might not coinside with your payment schedule
-don't shop around for credit unless it's a mortgage. it's best to see a broker then a particular lender if you have shaky credit. If you're shopping around the reporting agency thinks your in trouble .
Now... how to gain points
I f you keep the total used credit available to you below 30%...and make your payments, then you gain points....so one of the easiest ways to build credit is to have a card and just automatically put your cell phone top ups on it every month and pay it off.
BTW Utilities are not apart of your credit score...the exception to this is if you have a cell phone on a plan.... | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 12:01:12 PM | Zero. If I am interested in a man, its because of him, not his wallet size. Then again, I grew up witout much, so I have always been happy with the simple things in life. I think it depends a lot on how you were raised. Women who grew up with money, will likely always want plenty of it and more. Doesn't say much for their character, but what is, is. And I've seen plenty of rich unhappy people, and poor and full of joy on the other side. Money buys happiness for some, and others not a chance in hell, so IMO, its just work ethic. If your lazy and broke, step on. If you work and still can't seem to make ends meet..hang on tight..well make it  | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 12:40:31 PM | If you like to live indoors with running water, electric service and food, money is important.
If your car is in the shop and won't be released to your custody until you pay the repair bill, money can be real important.
With the query of how important is money comes one's priorities and attitudes towards it, as well as their ability to manage personal finances.
Anybody can experience difficulties financially. The question is, do they grab the bull by the horns and work a plan to overcome?
Not-Expecting-Much --
It is the love of money that is the root of evil, not money in and of itself.
For instance, since my income has steadied, I have my nails done. No violence, no sacrifice for the small business owner I patronize for the service.
As for women reading your profile and opting to pass--lose the "cheating whore" verbage, it's an instant turn-off.
Do you support your child(ren) financially? Just curious given your current view about money. Kids are a responsibility and it ain't cheap.
It would be interesting to fast forward 20 yrs when you are beginning to look at retirement and revisit your stance. | |

Posted: 7/21/2009 1:31:13 PM | Money and looks get you further than personality, honesty and kindness.
If I had listed my income on my profile, I would have had a lot more hits rather than putting student or "would not state".
This site is pretty much a joke anyways, most of the 18-28 year old females on this site are either obese, put average- but are obese, or have emotional issues. I guess I'll have to actually start going out to meet more "normal girls" instead of trying to converse with train wrecks online. | |
