How Many Millionaire Can There Be? Not Many
http://www.find-a-sweetheart.com/blog/C18/
Oooh, lordy, this one is a doozy! Here’s yet another entry to the legions of dating websites dedicated to fixing up accommodating women with rich men: DateAMillionaire.com In what appears to be the most contradictory advertising message of the 2007, here’s the first paragraph of DatAMillionaire’s press release:
First Beat Media recently launched a new online dating site for rich singles, or people looking to meet wealthy singles at http://www.DateAMillionaire.com. The site is offering free full membership packages for life to the first 5000 users of the site, including future upgrades. There are already approximately three hundred members on the dating site, since its launch in mid-December.
Tell me why, oh why, a dating site for millionaires needs to offer free memberships?
So guess what? I zipped over to take a look and did a brief search for men between 20 and 40. Here’s a sample of what came up:
Fla’single male athletic built’blonde’blue’eyes’like dineing danceing’motorcycle rideing’ horse back rideing’ all women email gets reply
someone i can treat good Age 56 6’1” white male 56 and slim. love to travel and do nice things. young at heart
well, my is miguel. i’m 24 with long curly black hair.i am a laid back person who enjoys trying things. i hate arguing, and conflict.i love affection, caressing, and holding. want to know anything else just ask.
These are just the first three that came up!
Somehow, I have a hard time imagining these guys as millionaires. But you never know.
I’ve written about these sites extensively. Take a look at my blog entries under “Money Matters” I just can’t see how any of this bodes well for men OR women.

Because millionaires are a very rare commodity?
Actually, shouldn’t they be recruited and *payed* to be signed up by the agent(s) who wants them - just like top atheletes are?
Just because it’s a mating market doesn’t mean it’s not competitive.

P.S. - interesting tidbits from the MIT study… who’d a thought it was mostly about height and money for men, and looks for women? The more things don’t change… also, while the super-low BMI number of prefered women is at first surprising, it’s conceivable men factor in a dishonesty factor on the part of women stating their weight—though they know it can’t prob be more than 10-15 lbs.
