And to TC...I am actually prejudiced against people with money so it definately would not work on me!
You don't like people that work hard, and succeed?

Also, I thought both you and BF had decent jobs and successful. How do you live with yourselves?

True. True. But I am scarred from being around prep school trust fund babies.

I agree with those that say this is an extremely passive approach towards a woman....
OK, good to know that while this approach works overseas it would not work here, at least among the forum posters.

I think there is one distinction though that might or might not make a difference. Overseas, the goal is to have fun and a good time, so the target demographics, and venues are a lot different than here in the States.

It didn't work for my friends or myself overseas either...I've traveled plenty to various countries...and don't find anything other than a man coming up to chat and not flaunting his wallet always works best with the majority of women.

As you said...if you are only looking for a fun fling...than go right ahead...that is completely different...I always forget that you are looking for a specific type of woman...I'm too old at 43...So I could see this working on a "young" 20 or 30 something that gets easily distracted by shiny things!...Enjoy

Well, I have found "new money" to be worse in regards to attitudes. Though, I am really disappointed in couple of my cousins and nieces.

When I've traveled in foreign countries, I've always had my drivers approach men on my behalf. it always worked for me - the men always agreed to have sex with me. Do you think it would work as well for me if I have my driver approach men in the U.S. and ask them if they will sleep with me? Or will the men be insulted?

I'd pretend I was gay and flirt with your driver to have a go at you and him.

So, yes, that means I'd be insulted.
