Wealth! Does is make them more appealing?

February 27 2018

Hi 😘 So I wanted to ask this question in light of sometimes shameless bragging about personal wealth, albeit it from some who are probably pushing shit uphill otherwise in the dating stakes lol Does it make them more appealing to you or influence your perception of them? Negative, positive or don't care? Now if you'll excuse me, just need to move the Ferrari over to fit the Lamborghini in, warehouse isn't big enough, such a pain 😏

    Put it this way, money doesnt help his tongue, fingers or dick work so its a big no from me and just face it, heaps with shitloads of money a stuck up toffs which I cant stand being around. I go for personality and humour before anything else.

    I could care less about someone's personal finances. It is none of my business. I am more interested in personality and if I am attracted to the person. Having said that, I wonder if those that are well off, maybe have more luck due to having the drive to actually make the wealth??? Possibly the personality and attitude are the actual turn ons and it is just attributed to the money??

    I’ve never been materialistic or judgemental in regards to wealth or social standing. None of my business anyway. I’m more interested in whether you’re a good person, friendly, happy and respectful. I’ve always mixed well with people from all walks of life. I’m comfortable rubbing shoulders with millionaires and successful entrepreneurs just as I am with people living week to week. I am turned off by people who brag about their salaries or wealth. So what? Can still be an asshole. I’m equally annoyed at people who whinge about others who have more than them and a victim mentality. There’s way more to life than things. We all become dust in the ground regardless. - Posted from rhpmobile

    I’m not materialistic, so for me it isn’t. On here it has no bearing in me deciding if I would meet someone. Unless, their photo or background in photos looked really dodgy. Regular dating, If someone likes to tell me about all their stuff I find it a turn off. But I think that sometimes men do it not to boast, just to try and show that they have themselves together. It’s like part of their dating resume because society identifies material wealth with success. The people I hang with are similar to me but I know lots of people where cash and impression are key. I try to avoid them. Not saying people don’t deserve their material success and great for them. It’s just not my scene when it becomes superficial. It’s always about the person and connection first, but money and people’s attitudes towards it has a big impact on relationships. - Posted from rhpmobile

    While on the surface it's always the same, no it doesn't matter... There is a certain likable factor to it that does unwilling make people with money be given a better shot.... Not necessarily the ass that brags about it. But if you knew he was well off (and in turn successful), it immediately adds to their attractiveness... No doubt I'll get ripped apart for these comments.... All I can say is look at the studies... All involved said the same with their mouth, but voted differently when the rubber hit the road... - Posted from rhpmobile

    I'm appealed to those who posess their own wealth from knowledge and life experiences. Someone who can enrich and stimulate my mind. I've dated a shitload of wealthy rich men. One thing that does turn me off, is when they think I can be brought or an apology is a prada handbag. I do love my handbags however I earn my own money to buy my own. I'm happy with that. As they say "The rich have lots of money, but the wealthy don't worry about money". Ms Foxy

    Just to be clear, I respect and admire successful people, well most just not those who use it to try and get laid, just the same as I do any other area they may have succeeded, self drive is very appealing and success in any form, shows they have had the focus to get there. Not a gripe against success or wealth. Earthqueen I like when they tell us a bit about themselves within the profile and ideally first message, I know what you mean about having their life together. Definitely love them being open. What I meant more was would you have sex with someone filthy rich, who you wouldn't normally? I can't, I treat people equally reqardless and could never be intimate with someone I wasn't attracted to. I've had guys pull up in beaten up old bombs, and the opposite, but it makes zero difference. As many of you know, I'm a lover of cars, I don't begrudge people spending money on whatever they choose to, just I'd lean more towards a hilux dual cab 😀 than a convertible, even better if it came with a sexy driver 😍 @ Cavey - yes but would you trade all of that for half a lamborghini? 😉 😉 think we know the answer to that and good for you 👍 @ MrAandMrsE - yes the drive to get there, that is appealing to me @ Lionsdoll - yep nailed it. I'm also comfortable mixing with people from all walks of life but like you say, the person is what really matters and yes we all finish up in the same place. Couldn't agree more @ lovebitten - yes I haven't dated them but have been approached by wealthy men, at the time I was in a desperate financial situation, but it didn't make a scrap of difference to me either @ HappyGoLucky - the bragging hmm yeah, fine line between disclosing and bragging, the latter is a turn off to me also @ NortyNancy - I met someone the other day who is a people person, naturally witty and fun to be around, and found his actual looks became less important. Not a love interest, just an acquaintance, but noted to myself how appealing his personality was @ mischievouslad - thanks. I think it's pretty self explanatory, certainly what I've said above might clarify it more for you @ chasinmidnight - not a sexist post so interested to hear all opinions and no judgement to those who approach differently to how I do, including those who like sugar dating, please feel free to come in and comment. Just throwing it open for discussion Thanks for your replies. Have a great day 😀

    I was contacted only this week by a person Who I politely rejected for various reasons He returned my message stating that he was a multi millionaire and how it was refreshing for him to be rejected for who he was and I wasn’t like other women who sussed out his profile and saw straight away how wealthy he was Then He went on to list his stats, his assets and achievements, I thought I’d stumbled on a article in Forbes but re reading his message a few times, it indicated to me that what he professed to have, was not a reality. I could be wrong but I dont think so I have just spent the last 3 years living in some of the poorest and remotest areas of South America and although at times I struggled with my western ways and ideas there, I found the people I was seeing each day were richer in ways I at first struggled to comprehend. They showed me that true wealth is found within ourselves. And they were right So as much as having money I imagine would be nice to experience all that it could buy I don’t believe in the end it reflects the true value of a person and if you have to bleat about it, to me shows, a character of question

    Ok so I have some wealth a bit more than others but still work hard, and only have a Porsche to drive. I holiday overseas and have a apartment in the city as well as some other properties. However my profile does not reflect this as its not important , its what you do with it that is. I have helped out a lady on this site who was enduring a hard time with her car and she was forever grateful but it was not bought with the intention of going to bed with her it was given because I could and we eventually went our separate ways. I always see if someone is on an equal footing and at least offers to buy a drink which then I would decline but the offer being made is good enough for me. So money just gives you choices but you are who you are and wealth shouldn't change that

    It doesnt matter to anyone in what context. Its my business. If people need to brag though, then in my view it screams insecurities, which we all have in some way or form? As far as 'shameless' bragging, I like to think most people shamelessy brag about something. I've heard some woman in here brag about their incredible head job abilities. Maybe they are pushing shit up hill, so need to be great at something? Don't know, just a thought. My take anyway. - Posted from rhpmobile

    That's exactly how the studies I've seen were conducted. First impressions based purely on a set of data and an image.. and then they changed the data around through the group of images and interest followed the money. I'm certainly not suggesting wealth will get you laid... Unless you are straight up paying for it.. And I'm not suggesting people only chase money. If you're an ass then it will show and people will move on...if you try to buy love from your partner then will usually be happy for a little while then move on... It takes more then money to keep love.. but it certainly opens more doors and gives you more opportunities.. - Posted from rhpmobile

    Wealth or perceived wealth does not impact on whether or not we find someone attractive (mentally or physically ) or not. What we find attractive is : Intelligence Well travelled Worldly Wise Educated Articulate Well versed Well groomed Healthy & in good shape Good teeth & impeccable oral & personal hygiene Respectful Classy Sophisticated Well spoken Non smokers Disease free Relatively attractive ( not just physically but moreso mentally which encompasses all of the above ) - Posted from rhpmobile

    if I sold my home that is ? Sounds impressive' but in reality I'd then have to buy somewhere else , so that effectively takes me back to where I was before I momentarily became that millionaire and that means I still need to work to maintain some sort of decent lifestyle. As foxy said , it's how you spend that counts.. If you save more than you spend , and spend wisely , you gotta be in front..

    Money buys material possessions, that can be taken away at the drop of a hat. Money doesn’t make you a better person. So to answer your question no if someone has money it doesn’t make them anymore appealing to me. I go with my gut, it usually doesn’t let me down. 💋

    Money is one thing but power is something entirely different. Men value money and compare to other men. It’s much harder for divorced males to be alone than females. A woman’s ego cannot bear to tolerate a man using her for her money. She needs to know she is loved—rich or poor—flaws and all... the entire point of having money is that it gives you the freedom to have someone for love rather than security. Male millionaires don’t seek out female millionaires because, to them, it doesn’t matter what she makes or how he makes her feel. All that matters is how she makes him feel: appreciated, accepted, adored. But in all honesty does it give you fulfillment. It never could. There are many studies... of this and that and they often contradict. Some are done as true experiments and they have some credibility, but you need to know something to be able to judge. Interesting topic Op and I am curious to know why did you ask? (Ms)

    Interesting post, different needs of men and women, so true, and I'd like to find some of the studies that have been done. I think they'd make interesting reading. My post was inspired by men who seem to think their material possessions and wealth make them more appealing. Maybe it does to some, hence my question. I certainly wouldn't judge anyone leaning that way. Interested to hear all opinions and the reasons behind our individual feelings about this. Thank you for your comment

    The best way I heard it said was that it's not what you've got that's important, but what you do with with what you've got that makes the difference. A wealthy but self indulgent person will always be a lesser person than someone of modest means who makes a contribution to improving the the lives of others.

Very nice, had it's own proper coffee shop inside 😛 Anyway, my daily routine when I'm not working is to get breakfast, coffee/banana/chocolate on my way out for exercise, so grabbed the coffee and set off around the shop looking for chocolate. Couldn't find any so asked, was told yes, heaps in one aisle. There was but nothing under $10 lol it was all fancy packets and boxes, most I'd never seen before. Ridiculous, what is it below them to eat a bloody Mars Bar? 😉 Needless to say, I went without, spent 30 cents on a nectarine and carried on 😀

    As a FB, I won't even bother finding out because it's all about the physical attributes and the fuck. 😛 If it's for a potential mate, yes... it matters to me. I've spent many many desolate years living a hand-to-mouth existence, I've experienced the threat of homelessness and the worry about how I can pay my bills and feed myself. It was such a harrowing, gut wrenching, soul crushing experience, I never want to be that way again, ever! Now that I'm in a much better position, I don't wish to be anywhere near poverty because that scares the bejesus out of me, I'll be honest. I care about my financial well-being and I want my potential mate to have healthy finances as well. Those who say money isn't important probably never had to fret over the essential basics in life. Money is so important and I experience sheer joy, bliss and peace of mind if I have money for my basic needs and more! I unashamedly confess that I love my creature comforts! 😛 Right now, I can't enroll in yet another course after the one I'm doing now finishes because it's out of my budget and I'm not assured of any R.O.I. for that. And I've become so paranoid about living without that I aim for 0% debt now. I know that if I love someone and he is in financial hell, I'll help him out but at my own expense. That's why I'd rather the person be doing well. It's not for gold-digging... It's to preserve my own wealth and sanity!

    I've been unemployed and basically broke for so long i don't remember the last time i had money that wasn't government issue (centrelink) and i gotta say i always felt like it wasn't worth trying at all during this period. And this period is not over although there is some light at the end of the tunnel. Honestly i just feel like its not the amount of money, but the access to enough to do what needs doing (your half of the bill, not living with parents etc.), which i haven't had. You do feel of lesser worth without money and the more you have the better you feel. Its probably got something to do with my age too. I think i could deal with being 20 and broke, but 36? In other people i don't give a damn one way or another.

People bang on about how they don't care about money at all and money doesn't make you happy, but try being long term on Centrelink... unemployed, disability pension etc., and see how tough life is and how happy you are when you don't have enough money for food and a roof over your head, let alone any luxuries. Plus it's not just the lack of money, it's the fact that in our society people's worth is judged largely by the jobs they do and the contribution they make to society in a purely economic sense. Which is bullshit but hey, yay capitalism. If we're talking about above average wealth then no, that isn't a point of attraction for me and whether it influences my perception of them would depend on factors such as whether they brag about it, whether they use some of their wealth for altruistic purposes, etc.

I said don't be sorry, happiest I've ever been in my life. Do you get them saying that? I assumed it was an assumption that women have been dumped/cheated on or whatever. Age old stereotypes.
