<p>Why don't we set up a CC-UCLA chatroom .. I'm serious .. it could be a daily thing and it would more interesting to witness the quarreling / ranting live rather than waiting for posts to be posted. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Give me all your money DWM. I'll spend it all, put a bunch of random numbers through a very complicated formula, and tell you if you are rich or not. </p>
<p>Have no kids? Thank God!</p>
<p>On IRC, maybe?</p>

<p>I second that sentiment!</p>
<p>I haven't played MASH since I was in 4th grade... and that was stretching it.</p>
<p>Dude, we were playing MASH in eighth grade NOSTALGICALLY. It was like, "I can't believe we played this game! We were such silly kids!" In the eighth grade. </p>
<p>Hehee. This is reminding me of that Marjorine episode of South Park. Dude, Emme. I totes wanna make a fortuneteller now.</p>
<p>Is landing a rich guy really that necessary? Let's just assume that there is a relative correlation between how hot the girl is and how much money the guy earns at time 0. The girl is unfortunately depreciating in value as, let's face it, people don't stay young. The opposite is true for men. As men get older, experience goes up and thus income increases as well. However, if the guy loses his money, the woman leaves as well(assuming that she's only in it for the money). Guys don't have an exit strategy when married, sans pre-nup. Of course, this could be averted if the female worked, but that would make my whole statement moot, as the girl wouldn't need a rich guy in the first place.</p>
<p>What are you DOING. Just turn on the TV and like, watch The Real Housewives of Orange County or something. Sheesh. Stop THINKING.</p>
<p>hahaha the real housewives of orange county...
i'm actually friends with kara, the daughter of the ex-playmate. she and i were in yearbook together.</p>
<p>Really? Do you want a cookie? :rolleyes:</p>
<p>
Where were you going with this? How does this give you any sort of reasoning towards the point of landing a rich male? We have some sort of lapse with your question and finally, where you decide your statement is moot... that there is any sort of correlation?</p>
<p>Is it really necessary to land a rich male? No, because there is no backup plan to secure the wealth. OK so what about women and their depreciating beauty? What's keeping the male to that no-so-hot babe?</p>
<p>mrMOO : yes please :)

<p>Cookies suck. I want some tiramisu</p>
<p>i want sushi</p>

<p>Reminded me of a situation. A girl posted on a dating site that she was good looking and in search of a man who earned 500k+ in NYC. The woman said she topped out at 250k and that it wouldn't get her into central park west. This is the answer that she received:</p>
<p>"I read your posting with great interest and have thought meaningfully about your dilemma. I offer the following analysis of your predicament.
Firstly, I'm not wasting your time, I qualify as a guy who fits your bill; that is I make more than $500K per year. That said here's how I see it.</p>
<p>Your offer, from the prospective of a guy like me, is plain and simple a crappy business deal. Here's why. Cutting through all the B.S., what you suggest is a simple trade: you bring your looks to the party and I bring my money. Fine, simple. But here's the rub, your looks will fade and my money will likely continue into perpetuity in fact, it is very likely that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that you won't be getting any more beautiful! </p>
<p>So, in economic terms you are a depreciating asset and I am an earning asset. Not only are you a depreciating asset, your depreciation accelerates! Let me explain, you're 25 now and will likely stay pretty hot for the next 5 years, but less so each year. Then the fade begins in earnest. By 35 stick a fork in you! </p>
<p>So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position, not a buy and hold hence the rub marriage. It doesn't make good business sense to "buy you" (which is what you're asking) so I'd rather lease. In case you think I'm being cruel, I would say the following. If my money were to go away, so would you, so when your beauty fades I need an out. It's as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is dating, not marriage. </p>
<p>Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets. So, I wonder why a girl as "articulate, classy and spectacularly beautiful"
as you has been unable to find your sugar daddy. I find it hard to believe that if you are as gorgeous as you say you are that the $500K hasn't found you, if not only for a tryout. </p>
<p>By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and then we wouldn't need to have this difficult conversation.</p>
<p>With all that said, I must say you're going about it the right way.
Classic "pump and dump."
I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of lease, let me know. "</p>
<p>While</a> we're at it... :)</p>
