I've read some posts on the message boards about men complaining that women only want men with money, etc, etc, but what about men? Are men OK with dating women who make less money with them, or do they just not even think that way.

I am sure that there are men that are fixated by money. I am not that concerned about how much my matches make but more with their goals and accomplishments.

I have found that women who are high earners will not go out with guys who make less than them.

This is why Jennifer Aniston doesn't return my calls.

You can have an intelligent, well-educated girl who is in a profession that just doesn't make a lot of money, I don't see that as a reason to reject them

Oh, GOOD. I have an education and an extremely stable job, but it provides a very average (or a little less than average, maybe) income. I'm not rich, but I do have very little debt-- I'm hoping that balances out my lack of bling.

The reason that they invented "Head Hunters" are for people just like you. Once you have experience under your belt you now become attractive to a new employer who will pay you a higher salary look for a good head hunter in the field of employment that you want to work in.

The "Bling" or the lack of you could try adult education courses that teach you how or a Tudor or a lady of the evening to teach you how to develop your Bling?

I don't understand this at all. Would you kindly clarify, please?

He says that he is lacking Big Bucks ($) to allow him to really wine and dine a lady, who is seeking more of a sophisticated player!

He claims to be suffering from a lack of Bling. Which translate to Sauve'affaire! Actually the only way to really acquire the sophistication is with a rich older woman.

Hmmmm, I find this very interesting...but not always true. For awhile , I made more than ,my S/O and it I just remember him saying to me, that at least he wasn't the big earner, it was almost a relief for him that it was me instead of him, and it remained that way until he got a raise and more overtime. It shouldnt' matter who gets more money, it goes into the same pot, and pays for the same bills and such. As long as someone is making the big dough, who cares!!!

But I've heard it all before..sooo

HA! I am actually OK with my lack of bling! And by "lack of Bling," I meant that I drive a Honda, don't have expensive tastes, and my hair is my own (no extensions).
