What am I doing wrong?
Okay, Iām tired of beating around the bush. Iām a beautiful (spectacularly beautiful) 25 year old girl. Iām articulate and classy. Iām not from New York . Iām looking to get married to a guy who makes at least half a million a year. I know how that sounds, but keep in mind that a million a year is middle class in New York City, so I donāt think Iām overreaching at all.
Are there any guys who make 500K or more on this board? Any wives? Could you send me some tips? I dated a business man who makes average around 200 - 250. But thatās where I seem to hit a roadblock. 250,000 wonāt get me to central park west. I know a woman in my yoga class who was married to an investment banker and lives in Tribeca, and sheās not as pretty as I am, nor is she a great genius. So what is she doing right? How do I get to her level?
Here are my questions specifically:
- Where do you single rich men hang out? Give me specifics- bars, restaurants, gyms
-What are you looking for in a mate? Be honest guys, you wonāt hurt my
feelings
-Is there an age range I should be targeting (Iām 25)?
-
Why are some of the women living lavish lifestyles on the upper east side so plain? Iāve seen really āplain janeā boring types who have nothing to offer married to incredibly wealthy guys. Iāve seen drop dead gorgeous girls in singles bars in the east village. Whatās the story there?
-
Jobs I should look out for? Everyone knows - lawyer, investment banker, doctor. How much do those guys really make? And where do they hang out? Where do the hedge fund guys hang out?
-
How you decide marriage vs. just a girlfriend? I am looking for MARRIAGE ONLY
Please hold your insults - Iām putting myself out there in an honest way. Most beautiful women are superficial; at least Iām being up front about it. I wouldnāt be searching for these kind of guys if I wasnāt able to match them - in looks, culture, sophistication, and keeping a nice home and hearth.
And this is the answer:

I read your posting with great interest and have thought meaningfully about your dilemma. I offer the following analysis of your predicament. Firstly, Iām not wasting your time, I qualify as a guy who fits your bill; that is I make more than $500K per year. That said hereās how I see it.
Your offer, from the prospective of a guy like me, is plain and simple a cr@ppy business deal. Hereās 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 hereās the rub, your looks will fade and my money will likely continue into perpetuityā¦in fact, it is very likely that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that you wonāt be getting any more beautiful!
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, youāre 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!
So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position, not a buy and holdā¦hence the rubā¦marriage. It doesnāt make good business sense to ābuy youā (which is what youāre asking) so Iād rather lease. In case you think Iām 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. Itās as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is dating, not marriage.
Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets. So, I wonder why a girl as āarticulate, classy and spectacularly beautifulā 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 hasnāt found you, if not only for a tryout.
By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and then we wouldnāt need to have this difficult conversation.
With all that said, I must say youāre going about it the right way. Classic āpump and dump.ā
I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of lease, let me know.
Oldā¦and it had itās own thread on SRK at one pointā¦
Still funny though. ~!
Yea, I posted the thread. Unfortunately, the craigslist post (and the associated link in the thread I posted) no longer works. I had to search for it from an alternate source and post it in here And sure itās old, but itās still Craigslist gold and worth posting
I just wanted to share it, for those who might not have seen it

Not sure if you were talking to me, but hereās the original thread I posted.
for sure!
Yup. Thanks.
Damn that story got me.
I just realized that this chick responded to that guyās pwnsauce:
IMO, she basically castrated the guy over the internet. His response was awesome, but she crushed him with her response.
Really? I didnāt understand a word of what she said.
ā¦seriously.
I guarantee she did not write that response.
It was all manipulative artificial techno babel that was not at all present in her first posting.
Sheās trying too hard. Doesnāt even sound like the same person that wrote the original post.
