What do you think of when who, in their Yahoo Personals ad, will put a requirement that their guy is rich.?

Question

They actually put the amount that they expect you to make. Isn't that a little materialistic, to say the least? And not only do you have to make a lot of money, but you have to be at least 6 feet tall or they're just not interested in you. Women, when will you wake up? Don't you see how superficial that makes you seem? Is it any wonder that you can't find a man?

Answer 1

Well- what can I say- each sex has their own requirements. Just as men will put "height/weight proportionate" or something to that effect......the same could be said of you if you put any kind of requirement such as that.....at least these women are honest and you know right off the bat which one you DON'T want to date....(for the record, I have no $ requirement, but 6 feet tall is- I'm a tall woman and it's one of the few things that I do mandate in my men)

Answer 2

Of course United buy players. What successful team doesn't? But does the time factor not come into anything you said? Since the 07/08 season City have spent close to 530mil on players to date. In the same period of time United have spent close to 200mil on players. Pretty big difference.. over 50%. Is that not significant? I said the above just to throw the figures out there, but I don't believe City are 'buying the league'. They have resources available and they're using it. Nothing wrong with that as long as they stay within the rules. Of course FFP may change things in the future, but until then, not much can happen. So fair enough if they want to buy players, it's nothing the game hasn't seen before. Like I said every big club does it. But even City's big spending in short time isn't THAT big of a deal.. I mean Madrid and Chelsea have both done that in the past. EDIT: I doubt that knowing FFP was coming into effect made the club "quickly build". I'm pretty sure they would have done so anyway just because they can. Of course FFP is on the horizon and they would've known, but I doubt that they would slow down the transfers if FFP wasn't a factor. Yeah I do agree that many clubs did push their prices up when City came knocking. But then again, that's their own fault. They were the ones who began to offer over the top sums of money to players and that immediately inflated the market and got those other clubs DEMANDING more money for their talents when City was interested. As harsh as it is that's exactly what happens when a club sets the new standards in the transfer market, it effects valuation all around. @Delboy: "one half of Milli Vanilli" hahahaha

Answer 3

It shows she knows exactly what she wants... money.

She's basically saying she's a hooker and setting her price. The guys who respond to those ads know they aren't going to fall in love and that it's really just business. No games just a legal fiction about what the relationship is based on.

Answer 4

There is a lot to be said for honesty. You'll never get what you want if you don't ask for it. Ladies generally don't enjoy rejecting male advances. The profile writer is giving clear information on who and what she will not accept, ultimately removing the possibility of rejection.I assume you'd have no problem dating someone you considered unattractive?
