Had to spread the rep oddboots, but you totally crack me up. I presume those boots you are wearing are major chick magnets? :D

If I were out on a date eating pizza with one topping, and sharing a coke with two straws while sitting a birdie doodoo picnic table, that would be just as sweet as a six course meal at the Ritz with all the trimmings.

Money is only a means to and end, and while the results may differ, the essence, and aura and presence of someone special, makes every bite the best you've ever tasted.

Welp I am a woman, since this is just a question based on opinions, I wouldn't consider them more attractive, its just I would think if he didn't have much, he wouldn't be able to do much... if your talking about poor in everything than he can't really fit her needs much, or provide a good future [for older women] with a family. I don't know, it would only depend on the ladies, because really if both guys were equal to me and one had more money, I would choose the one with more money. I am just one out of billions though.

I think you're honest, and I appreciate that. My mother used to say its just as easy to marry a rich man or a poor man.

Me, I married for love. We do okay, just celebrated 34 years of marriage yesterday.

I have told my single sis in law: "it is just as easy to marry a rich man as to marry a poor man." So why not?

Money won't buy happiness... but you can suffer in comfort.

It is prioritized and sorted differently by each individual. But it always put a plus in attributes. Big or little influence it is a plus.

In that light I say that it does.

No, I'm my opinion if the girl really likes you or loves you she won't care about your money she will only care about you being with her

Sorry stringer I have to disagree, its now big business setting up a person who wants to marry into money with dating sites/agencies that specialise in finding millionaire matches for Ladies as well as Men who openly declare they want to marry rich Men/Women.

Incidentally this type of site does a good job for their clients, however they rarely ever have a truly successful match. Many wealthy men have never had it so hard, nor have they had to hold on to their wallets and their trousers more now than at anytime, with so many females out to marry rich they have trouble sifting out the gold diggers from the genuine, sophisticated gold diggers are the new breed, they used to stick out like a sore thumb, or so Im told but not now. They've become much more subtle and their backgrounds are impeccible, invented to perfection, today's gold digger is very hard to spot, and often is as articulate sophisticated and even has finesse and much more class than those around in say the 50`s. They also openly admit they want rich husbands.

These women have eloquition classes, pay to be trained in many areas how be elegant and fit into a rich lifestyle the world of upper class english, they're really getting good at it.

I myself say good luck to them if they're prepared to go to such lengths in order to bag a rich husband then they have at least done something towards helping themselves in this aim, and paid thousands to dating agencies as well to get them on the ladder. There is however one area of society that is impossible to penetrate, the aristocracy or landed gentry/nobility, at least that's safe, plus its seeped in tradition and that's something no "gold digger" is yet able to impersonate.

A Gold Digger isn't just confined to the females its also quite rife in males too. It would seem so many people now want to marry into money. And they'll pay highly too to achieve that aim. Or maybe its always been this way, one thing that is on the way out though is the Sugar Mummy or Daddy, those seen with the typified doddery old man with a blonde bimbo on each arm, waiting patiently for him to pop his clogs. They'll soon be a thing of the past.

I say all credit to anyone who wants to improve themselves, its about time the wealth was shared out in a more equal manner.

Interesting post PP. I don't think that we are in disagreement however. Only in what it takes to accomplish the end. Not that I agree with the whole method as in your post (and I am not disagreeing) but I realize that it is out there.

There are those (as my lovely, intelligent, faithful and beautiful wife) who were born with a lot of class and worked to improve herself and I might add she improved me in the process....

My comment in my post simply meant that if one has the choice and love is involved... then I say go for it.

It's about what you bring to the table - if you are stalking money you'd better make sure you offer something that money needs/wants. I don't know that money makes a man more attractive to me - I'm a female (maybe obviously, maybe not). I am not impressed by wealth or, I should say, a show of wealth.

If you are talking about (?) people improving themselves to attract money, don't see a problem. People improve themselves to find better employment and just about everything else.

I AM impressed by confidence, self assurance and those often come with money.

My late husband used to say that you dress trash up but you can't take it anywhere. I think trash shows through.

[Stringer]

I am in total agreement Judy. First and foremost it is what is inside.

Hello 4answers,

I'm sorry, I haven't read any of the other posts other than your question, but I can say that in my opinion, no, to me it doesn't make a man more attractive to have money...

I know this may sound a little dumb, but when I look at someone, I look at them. Not what they do for a living or what they have. I look at how special this person makes me feel.

I hope that helps answer your question.
