The other day my cousins friend (who is about in her early 30's) was asking me about my boyfriend and what I look for in a guy. She kept asking me if he made a lot of money and that I should be looking for someone that is basically rich so they can take care of me. Um WHAT?! (she's asian by the way) I know not all Asian women are like that but I have noticed a lot of them are very materialistic. I love to take care of myself as I am very fond of my independence. I don't look for a guy to take care of me whether I have money or not.
Is it a general thing for Asian women to prefer to date a guy who has money and then like them? As oppose to just dating a guy they like? Does it depend on what generation you come from and your upbringing?
I know a lot of older Asian women who do date wealthy guys simply because they're wealthy. It just seems a little gold-diggerish to me.
(I also have Asian in me too. A little Chinese and Filipino but I"m mostly Hawaiian so I don't necessarily consider myself a full fledged Asian)
If money was all that there was to love, we wouldn't be seeing Paul McCartney pay out $40+million to his ex-wife Heather Mills in a divorce decree. It is clear that money does not buy happiness, simply because pure happiness is priceless. While money is fine in and of itself, that's all that it remains in the end. It can't substitute for human connection, the basis of true love
I've met a lot of miserable and depressed rich people in my day. Let's just say they pay a lot of money for fancy sounding antidepressants. The correct approach is to be happy first, then work hard and play hard simply as an expression of your will.

i am asian but I don't think money is involve in me picking a man.it would be nice to be with someone stable but its nicer if we have something we have sweated on.
id say no.pick a man that you like and likes you too.and make rich together.
dont make other people to decide for you.the have the right to say what they think but you have the right to do what you think is better for you.
Hmmm I think this applies to a lot of women. Regardless of their race. Asians just stand out since there are more of them in the world. But yah, I've heard stories from some "gold diggers" from all over the world. America, Europe, Australia, Japan, Vietnam, Philippines, China, etc. Race doesn't matter. Gold diggers are everywhere.
Just because the majority of "gold diggers" are asian, doesn't mean asian women can't take care of themselves. I know a lot of asian women who are very successful, and independent. Just like yourself.
I think older generations prefer guys to make lot of money because that how they were taught. Many of new generation Asians doesn't think like that anymore because they have freedom to choose and pick whoever they want to date and no restriction on them. My sister was raised in Laos and she thinks like every Asian girl from that part, that the guy much have to a lot money to date or marry her. So many guys here think she is a gold digger but she can't help it because that how she was taught and impound it to her. That why many old men go back to their native country and married a girl that is younger then their daughter because those girls have no objection to it and will marry him as long he have money and can support her family.
my mom's the same way. she's always talking about finding a guy with money so I don't have to worry. I for one like to support myself, so if the dude is taking care of his and I'm taking care of mine, then it's all good to me. it's such an old fashion thing to say stuff like that. the man has to take care of the wife and all that shit, but it's 2008 people. I wouldn't want my guy to be with me just for money, so I could never treat somebody else that way.
