| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/3/2006 4:47:25 AM | The richest blokes I've dated have mostly been the meanest in both wallet and spirit. The ones with no money have usually been the most giving. Anyway, wealth cannot be measured by what you earn - it's about what your outgoings are. Personally I find it extremely insulting to my intelligence if a man assumes I'd be impressed by the colour of his credit card or by what he drives.
If someone has to tell me how much money he earns because he'll think I want to hear that I'd call him a Tosser. However, I wouldn't throw a drink over his head - would be a waste of a drink. | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/5/2006 1:20:11 AM | Well let's see, I've had long term relationships with an auto mechanic, an airline pilot, a vice president of a computer company, an engineer and I've dated a lawyer and a psychologist and a PhD in science,an opthamologist, and hmmmmmmm some other guys I forget at the moment...
But the POINT is that they all made good money, but the one I LOVED and who touched me forever was the auto-mechanic. Not much moola, but so much in every other way. The smell of gasoline on a man still kinda turns me on!! ---------------------------
Daisy,
I think the auto mechanic was down to earth and decent. For some reason the other guys may have tried to impress you but did it in ways that you may not have found it endearing.
I think the best thing a professional should do is never let on that he is monied and never brag about his station in life. I think being modest and sincere would be more endearing qualities. Add compassioante too. The "JR Ewing" types sound like the kind that annoy some people....ok maybe most.
Who ever won your heart, is one very lucky guy.
To that, I tip my hat (a fedora in this case since I am from the midwest). | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/14/2006 9:23:50 PM | Wow!!!...That sounds sooo shallow...Yet,I'm sure there are women & men who seek those earthly,materialistic possessions.I can honestly say,it's never been one of my prerequisites.When I fall for a man,it's because of the man himself.If we are one in mind,body,& spirit...To me, that is the richness I'm seeking...  | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/16/2006 1:43:32 AM | | Have you ever considered that you are the one that's the problem here? Perhaps it's your fault that you pick pretentious and materialistic women. You certainly look like the type that would pick em! My guess is that these girls you are picking are "smoking" hot women with boob jobs and perhaps plastic surgery, addicted to TrimSpa, barf after they barf, and then live at the gym because the barf might have calories. Let's face it you live in Los Angeles...the land of the fake. What do you think you're gonna find here? My suggestion...quit dating silicone. | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/16/2006 6:44:21 AM | It helps to first do a search in the search thread. ON many threads you will see that women are not that pickey about income level; as long as you are employed, na know....not living with the parents, or shacked up with 10 roommates. Also most people want a decent standard of living and making atleast an average income lessens the possibility of there being financial stress in the relationship. NOTE on this site few women mention income requirement on their profile. NO the sad truth is for 99% of women it is all about the height. YOU can see by my profile that I am well established in my career, financially successful; educated, cultured, etc. & it doesn't matter without the height. Look at all the threads on this topic. Also look at the profiles of men 5'11"+ & compare the # of ladies that have them on their favorites list to that of the men 5'7" or less. THERE is a glaring difference. Almost all these short men are on nobodies fav. list. I see that each tall guy is on at least 10 and usually around 20/40 fav. lists. PLUS I notice most of the short guys are in more professional higher paying jobs!! Quite a telling story!!  | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/16/2006 7:11:59 AM | | I truly understand wanting to be comfortable and knowing that the bills are paid. But theres noway I could ever stay with someone, just because she had money. I couldnt do it. Even if she has a house on the lake and a boat, I still would have to have some attraction,,,,,,but thats just me | |

That is not true. My honey was new to the state and did not have a job yet when we started dating. I could care less about the money, I want someone that treats me well, with respect, love and honesty. I have found that. I can pay my own bills and I do not need a man to do that for me. Well it only took a few weeks and yes my boyfriend got a great job that will make him lots of money, but that is not what matters. I appreciate a man that is willing to work hard to have enough money for the things he wants and needs to be happy. I prefer a comfortable life, where the bills are paid, some money put away in savings and there still be enough for the nice dinner here and there.
Hi forumchick, my name is Jacktraven. I've never felt so identified before with a post. I wish you the best. Women like you are what's needed in this world. You rock!!! | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/16/2006 7:46:51 AM | I think its a confidence thing, i have quite a bit of money and nice car, but when it comes to a friday night on the town the confident men take all the lovely women. So basically if you have the balls to chat up some women in a club and come across without being a weirdo im sure you would get laid.

Just change the outlook on life and develop that grin that says: HERE I AM WORLD.
It also helps to develop friends. At the bars I go to I make friends with the singers who karaoke. And on occassion go to some clubs where favorite musicians play. Hang out with hip people, develop a happy go lucky attitude, and you may be surrounded by equally happy go lucky gals.

Man quit trying to act like you're superior to other guys just because you are 'in more professional higher paying jobs' as you like to put it. I don't even know where you got that from. When it comes down to the facts, TALLER GUYS MAKE MORE MONEY. Just do a search, its common knowledge. Yeah, it sucks. Too bad i'm not 6'5" pulling in 5 new girls every night. Yeah whatever. You work with what you've got, and you work harder then the taller guy and live happier and thats how you need to run your life. F uck this BWAAAA IF ONLY I WAS TALLER. Man, work on something productive. | |

Man, work on something productive. ======================================= Height means nothing. Napoleon was just over 5 feet tall. WWI & WWII aces were average sized or short. Manfred Freiherr Von Richthofen (aka the RED BARON) was slim and less than 5'5" Capt. Udet was just over 5' General Doolittle was short too. Some of your war heros were not tall. WW II a typical pilot was 5'7" and 140 lbs. To be a combat pilot today : 5'7"< h <6'2"....... MILSPEC's for ya.
Some of your wealthiest people are not really tall. Again, some offices want front desk people to look a certain way. But usually the founders of companies happen to look like the average joe and sometimes shorter.
Height is NOTHING, a sharp intellect and ambition will carry you along way.
Height is only a genetic bonus. A good thing if you plan on being an athlete. And then, how many people become pro athletes, a miniscule few, the lucky well marketed ones...I am sure there are legions of talented people out there who did not become pro athletes.
Other than that, intellect RULES. A good athletic build and a reasonably attractive face helps too. | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/19/2006 8:54:46 PM | It's true... I would like a man with money... but not because I'm materialistic, or shallow, but because I want to see that he is ambitious enough to want a good life for himself. It's not the fact that he has money... but that he wants a career that he can live off of. And should anything happen, say losing your job, you shouldn't have to go on welfare the minute you are unemployed.
It's a matter of security, more than the actual financial aspect. | |

| I know, women want a dude that makes lots of money Posted: 4/19/2006 9:27:25 PM | When in those shoes, ie. financially affluent, I would still "fly below every ones radar". Why? I love subterfuge. Like Sam Walton: dress down, simple, plain. This way you get to see humanity for what it really is.
Dressing up and having flashy get-up only lets you see the phony side of humanity.
If I would drive in expensive motorcycle or in an Aston Martin Vanquish, I would most likely wear dark lenses so that I can move around incognito.
My style would remain non-chalant & stoic. But that is me. | |
