It depends on the woman.

I have met self sufficient women who dont want anything from me but attention.

On the other hand I have met women who just want me to spend my money on them all the time.

All other women come somewhere in between.

There certainly are some golddiggers but there are also some women who dont care how much you earn.

Kind of difficult to accomplish that when they've locked you out on the porch all night and they've called your parole officer.

aaahhh - the sweet melodious language of love

As a shorter than average male I have to have a tall wallet to stand on. I've had a unique perspective on how important money is.

Don't blame money- truth be known a sensitive, loyal, caring man can beat out any man with a ton of money.


A positive sentiment Cindy, but few women will let a man prove he is caring, sensitive, loyal etc. Females are far to quick to judge a man on his flaws -- meaning he is condemned to singledom. Amongst the common things we are condemned for is not having a job, not having a home, not having the resource of money, etc etc -- hence the link to all things money.

Men get tired of the game just as women do I am sure -- but the reasons for a man to stay single include being able to keep his money. Until those laws change I think you will find men very reluctant to commit to anything.

actual things women have said to me on dates:

"what do you do for a living" - I am a landscaper

"oh, not a landscape designer, or an estimator or something, just a landscaper? " - no just a landscaper

"what did you take in school" - construction technician

"oh, didnt you want to be an engineer instead" - no, I didnt want to be an engineer

"what car do you drive" - a sunfire

"what kind a sunfire GT?" - no...a grey sunfire and you have to you know, wind the windows up by hand.

Men have above same behaviors. I don't think blaming women for money is a right thing for men to do.

His income level isn't what interests me...its his ability to look after himself, in all aspects of his life...I look after actual babies all day...I don't need to come home to a grown up one too :)

You know, I think some men assume that women care too much about a man's income when we see it as just caring in a reasonable way. I think for most women, we just want a man who works hard and makes a decent living and who manages his money reasonably well. For example, I do care how much a man makes, to the extent he is at pretty much the same level I am, economically. I am fine with sharing, 50/50 on expenses, but I don't make enough to support someone and still have the same lifestyle. Also, I really don't make that much, though I'm a professional with an advanced degree, but I work damned hard for what I do make. I would care if a man were not a hard worker and was satisified to have a small income as long as he could lounge around a lot. I like a man with ambition and an interest in his profession.

it's actually a HUGE turn off for me to listen to a man talk about how much money he makes. I was raised with the idea that I should pay for myself when I go out, I should offer gas money if someone gives me a ride, I should be considerate and share. I need to be valued as a financial contributer to a relationship. so while I'm not interested in supporting another adult (been there, done that, not interested in tryin that again) he doesn't have to be the Monopoly Man either. If he's got a job, that's enough for me. I am not dating a man who is more interested in money than myself.

I remember watching a documentary about kids who come from incredibly wealthy families. One kid's father was very upset about it - the unspoken rule is that it is rude to discuss money and wealth. I really think that unless BOTH people are considering marriage or cohabitation (or like going into business together), that finances, assests, bank accounts, etc are really a very private thing. On the other hand, if someone is totally irresponsible with money I don't want to find that out later.

Although each of us are judged on many characteristics in our dating life, it is well known that all other things being equal, women are judged primarily on their beauty and men are judged by their value as a provider. For you personally as a woman, how much money does a man need to make to keep you romantically interested in him?


I know this will sound corny but for me if the man is doing what he loves/something he is passionate about and is proud of, he is taking care of his responsibilities (not living with his mama etc and knowing how he will provide for his kids if he decides to have some), and is a decent respectful conscientious human being that is more attractive than attaching any figure amount. I would be equally attracted to a guy in debt (due to a misfortune with his business) doing what he can to fix his situation as I would be attracted to a billionaire doing what he loves. What I don't find attractive is people who think money in itself standing alone is of value. Money is a TOOL.

A lot of these women are claiming that money doesn't matter to them. Maybe I should quit my job and live off my 34 year old looks! Nah, I'd starve to death. Personally, I know I don't make much money and I never will. I do have one good thing going for me that some women seem to like- I'm in the Army. Looking good in uniform kind of makes up for the money I don't make.

gosh, we cant ever b happy if u just think of money u hav. we as a human being, we often want more and more. if u just pursue what u want than what u need, u'll hav trouble time finding the one. if u were rich, does it guarantee u can b happy???? i dnt think so.

if ur confident w who ur and make decent money to make living, i dont think u need to worry abt lil thing like this.... if u hav great inside, chics will come to u. it seems to me u wonder abt it cuz u don't hav much to offer. what kind of chic like those kind of guys????
probably not, to tell the truth. b urself, then find the one who likes who ur.

stop thinking abt stupid thing like that.

I agree with mewsic .. all that will be ironed out in the pre-nup and until then your business is your own. I just hope you make enough to support yourself cause I'M NOT supporting you, your low-life brother or your expensive hobbies.
