If you had to choose yes or no; is he likely a gold digger?

Question

30 year old guy grows up in richest town in America. All his friends are from multi-million dollar families. He was unable to do rich things like vacations with his friends due to being middle class. He did not finish college and works as a cashier at a Ski shop. His brother and sister married in to mega-wealthy families worth 25 million dollars. He follows instagram accounts such as "Luxury Life forever" "Living Luxury" "Luxury lifestyle" "luxury yahts" etc etc. He didn't want a girlfriend; and was a self-described womanizer often saying "I like f*cking women and not dealing with bullshit". He meets a popular girl whos family is worth 15 million dollars. He dates her. Is he likely using her for her money?

It's possible. Ask him how he'd feel about one of his sibs tossing him a thousand dollars just to to see to it he's got cash on hand.
I don't know if my ex's family was rich but, being from India, I would think they were because her oldest brother worked for an airline up in Canada and adopted 2 kids, and her dad was a famous writer with 28 books in his wake (as of 25 years ago). And, none of her sibs seemed to have ANY problem with getting money and even throwing some her way. The thing is, although she wasn't rich or greedy, she was making more than enough every weekend to keep herself afloat so, when her brother or parents sent her $1000 just to share it with her, she refused. it. However, about 8 years later, she left me for a guy with more money than I had so, that might not be the best yardstick to go by.
So, if he says he'd refuse the money, he's probably not a gold digger... unless, he's counting on her to supply him with cash! If you can befriend her and put it to her to see if he IS using her for cash, see if she'll pretend, one day, to be completely broke like, somehow, she just lost all her money and will be homeless, soon. If he sticks by her, he's not a gold digger.

Is this a real life story or fiction? Pardon my ignorance but in my opinion, this is unattainable. How can a family of three average people all entangle in rich people circles? Unless they are professional gold diggers, the probability of this happening is none, or maybe; a small time fling that never leads to a serious relationship or marriage can. How will even an average kid meet a rich kid? In a mall? Truly they don’t live in same areas or school in same schools. The bottom line in reality, like attracts like and rich people like to associate with others who are rich, rich people marry rich people to secure legacies because they know there are gold diggers out there. Unless it’s a sugar mummy/daddy arrangement, shit never happens.

Most likely he just is interested in her money although there is a small possibility he really likes her but it’s not likely.

jamesgoldman · Answer

I'd say no because I've been in a similar situation with my second girlfriend albeit smaller numbers

I can still remember she couldn't understand why I refused to let her spend £5,000 on buying me a watch

I have other rich friends despite not having much money because I know the language of money and have made a lot for several of them

If you're having to ask that, the answer is probably yes. I would say the obsession with luxury when he has no money of his own is the part that makes it obvious.

I said yes, but who knows As low of a chance it is, he might actually like/love her... I know its hard to believe, rich people can be loved too, sometimes 🤷‍♂️

His family has wealth. He just doesn’t make his own. So he’ll be broke, he just won’t receive it until his parents die. He’s also probably spoiled to death.

It's possible. If she's willing and able to help him get where he wants to be. OR, if he was like me with similar background, he could have vindictiveness on the mind

Jamie05rhs · Answer

The fact that both of his siblings did that very same thing does kind of raise eyebrows for me.

msc545 · Answer

Probably he is using her for money and other things as well. This is not a yes or no nor an either-or question.
