Once a woman or man realize this, they know they have the power. This only works if one party is allot more attractive than the other. No one said it fair...but this is Vancouver.

Why do you think all guys want to make it big? so they can enjoy the fruits of their labour....cars, houses, chicks, etc.

"50/50 doesn't have to be money"...but everything you quoted; rent, groceries, dining out are all about money???

Now, if two ugly people get together that is a different story, they will be soul mates because they know they are lucky as fuck to find anyone period....
Maybe, because I am not ugly, I don't see it that way.. But I also don't expect a girl to bend over backwards just to be with me because I am "too good" for her.

I am finding it very difficult explaining my points to you. Some men may feel like all they have to offer is money because they lack at other things to gain a woman's attention. For me, I would never want to be with a girl that was not independent and did not have a job etc. I don't want a daddy's little girl rich bitch spoiled brat. If a girl cannot appreciate me for who I am, then like I said earlier, I don't give a fuck. On that note, I have never had problems getting a gf.

yes, rent, groceries, etc all cost money. As I stated, my gf and I split everything to the tee. It may sometimes be 48/52 or 40/60 but shit, now you are just being picky.

The world, and Vancouver can be a very materialistic place, and there are tonnes of men that use their money to get women, and women that go after men with money.. I am not denying that, I am just saying that will never be me.

And you do realize ugly-average looking people make up the majority of the population.... so that means, with your theory, most people will be soul mates.


If I was rich, I would buy nice cars, clothes etc for ME, not anyone else. I could care what other people think about whether I have a Mazzerati or a Porsche. Imo, I am not in High school anymore and could give 2 shits what other people thought about me due to what I wear or drive.

btw, how old are you?

blueg2, I am old....... Thxs for clarifiying some of your pts....makes sense. I think our rating scale is off....I think Vancouver as a whole is a very attractive and cosmopolitian group....girls more so than boys. So, when I mean ugly, I mean 1-3 scale (aka soulmates, due to no choice)...to me 4-6s are your avg downtown office girl

I think our scales are the same, lol. I agree with your numbering scale haha.. And like I said, there are very attractive women who are independent etc.. but most, unfortunately will use their looks to their advantage. Those are the ones that will either get told to eff off or get grounded by me.

So how do you feel about someone like me who has little post secondary education, whom works in the Oil Industry working 12 hour shifts making $450/day?

I think prostitution is wrong, same with burning fossil fuels, but its there, and there is obviously buyers!

University = instant higher income is an illusion. The job market is insanely competitive, a degree is pretty much equal to a high school diploma nowadays.
How many MBA's, CA's are out there right now and you want to compete with just a degree? No chance.

For those of you who are splitting 50/50, are you and your SO making equivalent money? What if one person makes significantly more than the other (e.g. 2x-3x more)?

i can't comment on that as we both make similar amounts.. but even if there was a large discrepency, you both have to live the same kind of lifestyle to be compatible.. if i made 3x more than my sig other, what are the chances of us being together if i was a big spender and very materialistic when she was very simple and frugal? She would be happy going on movie date nights and cooking dinner at home, while i wanted to go on vacation every month and spend money like piss.

Again, there is a difference between a male who works and supports his family while the wife works at home or works part time because she has to have time to look after kids, and a guy who constantly buys his SO expensive shit, just so she sticks around and gives him sex. The latter is basically paying for sex, while the first is supporting a family in which he chose he wanted.

no chance Vs MBA's and CA's? actually they have no chance if they have minimal work experience and no track record of proven performance.....great work experience at a tier one company is more valuable than any designation behind your name.

they're two completely different things.

one is someone you pay for a session, or X amount of time, it is not inclusive, she has other clients, and there is her main source of income, that is her profession. theoretically she has to pay tax.

one is someone where, at your status (with a lot of money), can pay for a woman, who doesnt think of herself as a prostitute to stick around you. she's usually really hot, and a head turner, and basically a male's accessory, much like how a woman has a nice handbag, a guy can have a nice car or female around him all the time. both paid for, and exclusively his. there's a big difference.

what makes someone a prostitute isn't just the monetary fact.

it might be paying for sex if you make 100grand a year and 30% your money is going to her just so she sticks around.

what if i made 30 million dollars a year, and it costs me 100 000 dollars to keep her around (not a fee, but calculated from all the expensive things you've bought her or vacations etc whatever, money that is spend towards her). 0.034% of his income goes towards her. it's a very different scenario.

like I said, a very complex form of accessorizing yourself.
but the fact that she is with you ONLY because of your money, makes it very similar to prostitution. Like an escort, you are paying for company.. no money, no company/sex.

And who says she is just with you... The bitch is probably sucking some other geezers million dolla cock!

it is to the point where university Bachelor's degree aren't as valued as before because everyone has one, true. I think it is more apparent in our generation. Looking at the competitiveness, tuition prices, and the lazy ass kids these days, I wonder how it will be like in 10 years.

but with that said, even employers that don't require a university degree for their positions, will screen out all those who don't have post secondary education just to reduce their candidates.. ie.. police forces... you never needed it in the past, but most agencies are requiring minimum 2 years

Take you or me for example, there is someone out there who is just as cool and exactly the same personality wise, except they've got a shit load more money than we do. That's the only diff.

Now a super hot girl knows she can choose between us, or the rich version of us, why wouldn't she choose the rich version of us?

Standards.

Men have standards. And the richer you are, the much higher chance your super high of women standards will be realised. It is vice versa for women. A hot woman will choose the guy with more money, all other morales and values staying the same, just because she can.

It all comes down to $ in any relationship. Your current gf or wife just has a much lower standards pertaining to monetary value. If you went completely broke and had no way of making $, she'd dump your ass instead of being dragged down.

Some women's "broke" line is really high. Just like some guys feel like they're way behind in income even though they made several mill in one year. Different worlds, different class of people. $ does matter.

$ isn't shallow. A woman could actually totally love you for the combination of your personality+money (and if you're missing either or you aren't as attractive)

Just like a woman could love you just for your personality and if you lose that (just like if you lose money) she could become unattracted to you.

I see no difference if a woman wants to leave me because I'm broke, or because my personality/beliefs have changed.

What's worse? A woman leaving me for someone with more money, or a better personality? Lol.

if leaving someone for money is acceptable in your standards, then why won't women admit it? i doubt very many women will say "i left him because he makes less money than before"... i know there there's a difference between a man losing all his money and being completely broke than just making less money, but if a woman left a guy because he makes 80gs instead of 200, she can't be considered anything but shallow. Unless she has no job herself, and is a housewife doing dick all to help in the relationships finances, then she is def mooching. Then again, I guess a guy who goes for a girl that DEPENDS on a mans salary is just asking for instability.

I guess whatever floats people's boats... Again, I would never want a woman who didn't have her own career and was not independent.. Even if I was rich or not. Then again, if I became rich now, I know what I know from my lifestyle up until this point. Who knows what values I would have if I was born into riches, knowing I could get pussy just buy what kind of car I drove.

I'm sure she had an amazing personality. Sorry, this just in, no, we are getting reports that she didn't even have a personality.

But apparently this guy turned into a fucking stud in Vegas. He had done all the arrangements before hand and picked his girl out over the internet.

One of the brothels picks them up in a limo and they head out into the desert and he gets to nail the fuck out of something in our world on a scale of 1-10 is a 20 in his. Destroys her in his own way.

Walks out like he owns the city.
