Why are Rich Men always sought after?

[Anonymous]

It seems like every rich guy willing to throw money around has a flock of beautiful women after him( regardless of his looks or age). Is this just a function of DC being a high cost of living area, or is it the case everywhere?

Maybe because he is rich? LOL

LOL. Like you really needed to ask this.

It’s everywhere.

Look, rich men who are happy to throw money at women to get what they want will always find women who will take the money. It’s like a vape business. The product might be awful but they still get customers.

Also you might not have noticed this but emotionally available, responsible, genuinely kind men have flocks of women chasing them too.

I don’t really see this.

My experience is that handsome, charismatic men have a lot of women around. Being rich isn’t enough if you are also socially awkward.

Depends how rich. If you are talking just BigLaw or Chief Surgeon money, it can take more. If you are talking tens of millions, then it speaks for itself

That’s fair. I don’t actually know any single men who are worth tens of millions and throw it around.

Patriarchy. For most of human history, women have not been permitted to acquire wealth, and so your best chance at survival was to marry a wealthy man. The cultural beliefs still persist - we raise girls on princess movies, which indoctrinates them early on that their value is based on the man they can attract.

I know for me, once I worked through these beliefs and learned how to become wealthy on my own, I lost all interest in rich men.

I am not a woman so I won't speak for you but isn't some of this evolutionary? Like, women are attracted to men with power and ambition for which money is a stand-in? Just as men are attracted to youth and fertility?

Because not being able to afford things sucks.

As my friends and I discovered in our 20s, there is no correlation between a man’s net worth and the ability/desire for that man to treat a woman well; that is, a poor one is no less likely not to be an jerk than a rich one. If poor guys were so much better than rich ones, I think a lot more women would go that route, but since that’s the not the case, and you’re likely going to be dealing with the same stuff either way, you may as well be with a rich one (or at least not a poor one).

It’s just as easy to fall in love with a rich man as a poor man.

This is true in the same way that beautiful women are just as likely to be intelligent, funny, kind, and successful as less attractive women.
