For The Love or Money?

If I were a millionaire I'd pay someone to gather up a "man harem" for me...I'm rich, why do I have to settle for just one? LOL!!

I find this article to be a tad self-righteous! No offense, Leticia, but what world do you live in? I watched the entire past season of the show of which you speak, and see nothing wrong with it! As a matter of fact, I found it very entertaining and learned a great deal about relationships and knowing yourself well enough to understand the "type" of mate you would like to meet -- whether you are a millionaire or the woman seeking to date one. It's no different than one who prefers to date interracially and becomes a member of a website that caters to that preference. Think about it...the matchmaker simply puts like-minded people in a place to meet like-minded people. Isn't that the premise on which this particular website is based? Also, for the record, I am a well-educated female that ONLY dates professional men ---- who can usually afford to date me. It may sound crass, but I look at it as just knowing myself and my limitations. We must be able to match wits, as well as, be able to indulge in the "extras" that come along with having the means to do so! Ciao!

This was very interesting to red but to the message behind the message.I think i wiil do it was at same position. Leticia i would like to meet you and shake your hand very well. posted by Cheikh

I certainly have no problem with rich men. I do have a problem with rich men who would attend such a party, those who apparently lack the social skills or the desire to meet a woman who likes them for more than their stock portfolio. I watched the first episode of said show. It was indeed entertaining. I just wouldn't want to be on it.

I tried to watch the first season of the unwritten title of the show we're talking about, and I couldn't finish. I've had an opportunity to go on a date with a man who could be considered a very well off man. It was a blind date, I knew nothing about his employment or income until we met. I went out with him and was extremely uncomfortable. Not because of his income, but because he insisted on throwing money around, tipping the maitre'd and hostesses of the restaurants we went to in order to get a good table or better service. He bragged about his career, his apartment location, his boat, and finally his marriages. If he had just relaxed, not lied about his looks or height and stopped trying to impress me, I might have gone out with him again, because he could've been a really cool guy. I's rather have someone who is comfortable with himself, happy with who he is, and doesn't have to toss cash around or remind anyone else how wonderful he is because of the cash.

I found the show to be immensely entertaining! It's a "train wreck" but entertaining none the less :) - I think we all agree that finacial security is a wonderful thing to have but I would personally never go after a man simply because the only thing he has to offer is money. I don't know.. I am a hopeless romantic..I want it all.. the madness that is love :) - The millions would be an added bonus for us as a couple.

I saw the commercials for the show in question, and immediately knew it was not for me. Though I see nothing wrong with wanting the person you love to have money (it is a needed thing today to live) basing an entire relationship on money, is shaky. These guys have to know going in, that if times get hard and he loses everything, she is gone. And the women must know that if she suddenly (or slowly) becomes what he doesnt want or need anymore, there is someone younger pretter or something-er, ready to take her place. I couldn't live like that. I'm like the others....I want the whole package, starting with being head over heels in love forever. If we are rich, that just sweetens the pot even more.
