We see a lot of beautiful women with rich guys, they seem attracted to money and rich men, why? You think that is just for interest or is something deeper than that? Is there a scientific explanation?

In ancient times before and during the invention of a currency system the privileges, security and stability of life was usually measured by the men fighting off hostiles (wild animals and hostile tribes), ownership of home and land (to grow edibles and livestock) or providing community services such as forging weapons, tools, armor...
In modern times money translates to many things: Your privileges in life, your social status and social class, quality of living, your influence, power, exercising out your potential, getting all your needs and wants met and even the medical services you can afford.
This is attractive regardless of gender. The men tend to take on such quests directly. (Possibly they got influenced by gangster rappers and rich guys getting all the gold diggers or gold diggers running after Mr. Big Wallet) The women do that too but apparently not as often as men do and instead some of them choose to find a guy with money and take advantage of it and selling their love. This case is a dumpster and if you have any considerable amount of self respect left, you wouldn't go down that route (and neither would the high quality ladies as they would rather finance their expenses themselves and then find someone to truly love *if* they so choose).
Regardless of past or present, a person not contributing to society (in modern times it would equal to a lazy couch potato watching TV and settling for minimum wage slavery type of "jobs" (if not scamming people for a living) or playing for very long time videogames) is not a person gaining any value in dating. Yet I know many people, who do what I just mentioned and they are married with kids. However I choose not to be part of them even though I was born in one such family but have chosen to escape from that madness.
In summary: It doesn't matter if you are male, female, transgender or non-binary. The following applies to YOU: It is YOUR job to become a person of value. At the same time it is YOUR job to screen out those, who mostly intend to take advantage of you or are trying to sell you their love. It is also YOUR job to find a partner rather than waiting for miracles to happen *if* you so choose. Find a teammate, not a liability.
You know, I'm 63 and have some money. I don't live large but I do drive an expensive car and live in a nice luxury apartment. I have had really beautiful gals make it known they would let me come close. I generally don't though. I much rather be with a lady with an inner beauty that knows how to have fun. "trophy" Women are in fact a dime a dozen. I have never been fully comfortable around them. I know I can get mean in these comments about only wanting to be around women that act like ladies. The thing is acting like a lady does not mean she can't have fun as we all toss back some suds watching out favorite teams on TV. I guess I am so old I don't enjoy the games anymore and just want to be around women that let their beauty come through. Pretty faces with nothing behind them honestly bore me today!

To answer this question directly. It's in a woman's nature to want to be taken care of. One of those ways is financially. A man who is rich can pay for tasks we don't want to do but you probably want us to do. Like cooking. A rich man can provide us a chef, maids, a nanny. (not that all women want those things) but it's help. It signals a more easy going pampered lifestyle.
This isn't to say a hardworking minimum wage man can't pamper his wife. But let's be honest the pampering is different. A rich man can get his woman a massage at a luxurious spa twice a week. While the other man would have to save up and gift it to her once a year on her birthday. There's nothing wrong with that I'm just saying there's a clear difference.
For the young girls, they want to live up life. That's why some of them they have "sponsors". They're sponsors can put them on yachts, fly them first class, take the to places they didn't even know existed. In a woman's world, most of us are not going to see this life, yet many of us dream of it because it's rare and hard to come by in men. Men who have money know this which is why some flaunt it to get women.
Women are attracted to security, stability, and safety. In today's world, those things are best achieved via money.
So... there. A deeper meaning behind it.
I'm not into flashy cars or fancy things, but I do desire to feel secure. I'm also financially responsible and I make my own money, but we do have an emergency fund for our emergency fund. So like... we have our day-to-day money and then we have 6 months of expenses in a separate account... and then we have 3 months of expenses in a third account because I need to feel secure in my home lol
That's so funny your response you're basically saying you fuck some guy that you may not even really like just so you don't have to work that's exactly what you're saying
@the29thhuman true!.. Along with money, being Rich means important to society that means higher social status and more security and support in help of crisis
@Seqngreen yes because God forbid you die while she's taking care of your 2 plus kids and doesn't want them ending up on the street or having to whore herself out or date abusers to make ends meet. Ffs look at the bigger picture.
You also see a lot of beautiful women who aren't with rich guys, but no mention of them... Or the fact that you are assuming that they're with those men just for the money, how do you know those women didn't have their own money or are rich themselves🤔 no, far better to assume and label all women as money hungry gold diggers🙄🤦🏼♀️
It’s always been the case that successful people attract others.
Historically it’s always been successful men that attract women who are usually more attractive (based on social requirements in that era) than other women. It’s nothing new and it’s always been a thing.
Some of it was families getting a move up the social ladder, other times it was down to the woman looking for herself.
These days successful business women etc also attract guys who are more attractive.
invariably people who have money, have likely been well educated, have confidence, have drive, have passion etc, even without the money side of things, these attributes are more attractive than the average person, definitely more than the Incel living in his mums basement (those that would moan about this the most).
Because certain types of women are shallow and materialistic. Perhaps some grew up in a family that struggled financially and seek security. Some may have low self-esteem and base their worth on money to boost it. There are many reasons this could root from. Keep in mind the men allow this.
Personally I couldn't give two hoots if a guy drove a shitbox and lived in a 1 bedroom unit. If they have what counts on the inside that's all that matters. We come into this world with nothing and can't take anything materialistic with us when we die.
Personally I feel we as women are attracted to a man that is wealthy, or comfortable in life because it’s hard to find men who make a decent amount of money & it’s hard to find someone who actually has a job. Being financially stable with someone is the ultimate comfort we as women and (humans ) longfor and want. So to answer your question women want men with money because they want to be able to live comfortably with a man. And let’s be honest we as women do enjoy being spoiled here and there as well. There’s many layers to it, just depends on WHO you ask.
Yea, i guess having a job is no longer enough for women it seems.. What about growing together, and getting wealthy together as a couple? The media truly fucked up people's minds.. it's either you are rich & famous, or you are a nobody in many people's eyes.
That's what this post is about. Why are so many women trying to normalize/silently get rid of the word goldiggers, by saying "we just want a stable man" and stuff like that.. meanwhile all they really want is the goldigger comfy lifestyle.
@ElvenMr I know you men are going to be mad at me for saying this but you mentioned the media and growing wealthy together. Great I want to take that angle. If you look at the media, there have been a lot of scandals to where the rich husbands have been cheating (not all of course) but many are. Now, there's this "High Value Man" narrative of men telling women that if a man is of a certain financial bracket, the woman is going to have to share him with other women because he's rich. So, understand young women are seeing this and hearing this from men. What she thinks is If I grow old with this man and we get wealthy together... he's going to cheat. And if I marry a wealthy man he's going to cheat. Some of them also grew up under grandfathers and fathers who were also cheating. Because of this, It's not worth it to them anymore.
Men can want a woman to be attractive but a woman can't ask for any quality of a man without being ripped to pieces for it. If we want a man over a certain height. Men find that to be an issue because most men don't make the cut. If we want a guy of a certain income bracket. Men call us gold-diggers. If we want men to be attractive. Men find an issue because she's ignoring 80% of men (so the men claim on here). If women want a man with status, she's an opportunist. We can't ask for anything. Being honest gets us attacked.
@Truthbewithyou I mean you just assume all men will cheat eventually, which is not true. The things you listed, the things women want are all superficial things. Women put way too much emphasis on these. I get it some women want a tall guy, which is fine, it's like how some men only want women with big boobs, but they are not really the majority.. a lot of men will be fine with any boob size.
Compromising shouldn't be a bad thing. I don't mean compromise to the point of dating someone you absolutely don't find attractive in any way.
Wanting someone with money usually means, she puts too much importance on money over other things. And she'll probably not date a guy with not enough money, even if she likes her otherwise. Women wanting someone attractive is fine again, but sometimes women's requirements for men to be called attractive is a bit too much.. i mean some women's expectations are way too high. Why do women even want status? I know why, but what's the point of it? Not much, it's just another superficial bullshit women like.
@ElvenMr No, I am saying that's what is being put out there for the assumption to be made. Men can be satisfied with a smaller bob size because their needs can be met as to what they want from a woman. That's not the same with women. but saying this, "The things you listed, the things women want are all superficial things" ... and that's why women are quiet about it.
It is simple. babies are expensive and resource heavy. Women typically select males that can provide a safe and stable home for her and the potential off spring she might bare for him. So it is not so much money women are attracted to but stability and security. this is a throw back to when humans lived in caves. it was the male that could provide the warmest cave the biggest deer and the most protection that got to select the best mates. So for example. the fry cook at McDonald might be handsome and physically impressive but lives at home and has no goals beyond that. Getting potentially pregnant with his children is a huge financial burden to a would be mate. Unfortunately you can't feed love to kids and if that relationship dosent work out she is left to financially support his offspring a lone. Now, a man doesn't have to be physically impressive to provide the best cave or food as that has all been replaced by money. So it pays to select the best possible mate you can.
@Manab most single mothers are usually rendered single mothers when they are still little more than children. teens to early mid 20s when that fry cook looks a lot more attractive because the consequences of those choices are buffered by still potentially being financially dependent on others (mothers or fathers or government). there is also things like education and location, poverty and the like that plays into this. all those single mothers tho factor into the 35% of women who for what ever reason choose poorly... and a lot end up paying for it with a long hard life.
Yea, i guess having a job is no longer enough for women it seems.. What about growing together, and getting wealthy together as a couple? The media truly fucked up people's minds.. it's either you are rich & famous, or you are a nobody in many people's eyes.
That's what this post is about. Why are so many women trying to normalize/silently get rid of the word goldiggers, by saying "we just want a stable man" and stuff like that.. meanwhile all they really want is the goldigger comfy lifestyle.
she's right you know. Women invest so much into the reproduction process, at best you might have 24-30 off spring in a life time. At best. A man, well in theory, he could sire thousands of off spring. It makes sense for the woman to look at a mate from the prospective of resources and whom can best take care of her and their offspring.
Women for far too long had only one way to get money/resources and it is now encoded into their behavior genetically... How? you know how, from men. Because of hypergamy their standards have shot through the roof as well, if that's why she is choosing that man. They still also get the tingles and butterflys for physically strong men which is basically for the same reasons as the money seekers... Because way way back in history before being a wage slave was possible, that meant safty and resources as well.
There is no scientific explanation because it’s not a fact corroborated by observation. It’s a made up myth.
The thing that come closest to an explanation of what you think you are observing is that some people are indeed looking for a shortcut to social success or safety. It’s reasonable this happens because we learn we have to survive in a rough world. The gender role difference is purely social. Women have less opportunities to be independent and achieve safety. This is a documented fact. For some women, this is exactly that rare opportunity.
Money is vital , life is far easier with money , power is sexy , some try and make out that some relationship is more " substantial " if a female just goes with some poor dude , with a life that is just ALWAYS going to be super tough , no one wants to live like that.
Financial literacy is a skill , to then be able to study more , play more sport , associate with those who are winners , who run business , who have ideas , who want to create , association in life is key , assets are nicer , yep.. clearly its an attractive , powerful set , of course all women ( and many men ) are attracted to the same.
Or go and get with a gardener? for Love? hahahaha , yeah right. Goals , association , influence , power , money , its all in the bag , and its great.
because actually not long ago it was a norm for a man to take care of a woman financially and she had no right to work. Nowdays things are different but still some things from old times remain, like most men being in power positions and therefore still most men earning more, well pay gap as well. Then you also still have social expectations of a man to earn money and for women to look pretty. Then there are physical predispositions, like women having to give birth while men seek such fullfilement and purpose in their work. BUT golddiger women are not majority. Majory of women care about guys income but not really cause of his money but its a way to figure out if a guy is capable and can keep her safe and protect her, that is desirable, women seek safety, protectivness and reliability, cause they are physically weaker and they may be pregnant.
Women are usually attracted in guys who will give them stability and a comfortable life. In other words the men who have money will in general attract most women attention, ladies tend to feel protected and are usually grown up hearing that finding a guy who can give you a good life is the most important thing in a relationship.
While the opposite is said about men, us guys are attracted to pretty women or women who will sexually showcase themselves because we have wired into thinking that finding a woman who you can give you a child is the most important thing in a relationship.
So basically women go after men who have money, while men go after women who have good looks.
Because guys with money can be the biggest simps on the planet. Sitting ducks. Like GMB says, stuff confidence does not make up for self confidence. I am pulling better and hotter and finer and younger than... oh let's see... Will Smith, Jeff Bezos, Dwayne Wade, Steve Harvey. Even Jay-Z, stuck with some old washed up strag. And I am doing it on 1/100,000th of their pile of cash. Nah. Money is trash. keep your money. It just makes you look lame. That's not how it's played. Good day and good luck gentlemen.
Not all are. I prefer a stable average income over lots of money. All the rich guys I have come across are not the kind of person deep inside that I want. Many rich men have money to look handsome but they usually can't commit to one woman and any woman is seen as a gold digger even if she isn't interested in his money. Some guys are such hypocrites that they offer luxuries first and then call the women gold diggers even if his offers for expensive things were rejected. It is so rare to find one with a good personality. I also agree that many women are, infact, attracted to money that's why many old men are able to attract much younger women even when they are past their prime. It is going to continue as a woman's successful career turns men off while many rich men are okay with women who are only attracted to their money as long as they look good. It looks extremely shallow to me.
I think a better question to ask would be why do men use their money to attract sexual partners and then get upset when that's why that partner dates them.
@Neosporin firstly she is not ugly and secondly your question is also valid as it happens but not in all the cases and her question is also valid as it also happen but not in all the cases. nothing to get rude so behave mr.
A female looks for a mate who can provide and give safety for them in their offspring For the most part also health is important because if you die you're not going to be around to do that. In our society high income and money means you can provide a good life and very safe for them in their offspring so biologically they are attracted to you. This is all done on a subconscious level they will act like it's not true They like it's something else but then the guy loses their job and suddenly they want to break up or get a divorce
Love this question lol. I don't care how much money a woman makes. What matters is she has a job. On dating apps and here I've seen women say "I want a man with a steady career". That to me means you want a guy that has a lot of money. Not everyone has the luxury of a great career. Reality check, It's hard to find a steady, well-paying job. This world can be harsh and businesses lay off their workers sometimes when the economy takes a plunge.
There are gold diggers out there that tried to target me but as soon as they asked me to buy them gifts, give them money, etc it's ignoring time 😂
It’s a human survival instinct. Speaking strictly biological, if an animal has more available resources then the offspring is more likely to survive. Therefore all animals try to show that they can provide so that their genes can perpetuate. In human terms that means money.
"Speaking strictly biological, if an animal has more available resources then the offspring is more likely to survive."
this is complete horseshit. if this was the case then women nowadays would not be initiating divorces from left to right. and boy am I not lying when I say most of them initiate the divorce before even thinking about having children
@CasaNorba Key word "animals"/ Humans moved beyond being animals 100k or so years ago and we can modify our environment. Hence money/beauty equation in this conversation
That is like asking why people like money, everyone is attracted to money and if guys show us interest and are willing to throw money at us, why not use that situation to the best of our advantage?
If you found cash laying on the ground, would you just walk past it and leave it? or would you take advantage of the situation, pick it up and use it.
I have literally never been drawn to money. The first thing I see in a boy is how he looks and if he is my type then that’s it. After that it is how funny he is, how intelligent he is and if he is a good person or not. I am a sucker for sweetness, romance and loyalty. Just need the boy to be obsessed with me and that’s it.
@COL_D of course not. I would not get into a relationship with a scrounger. I am emotional but not a fool. Obviously I want children and I want a good future for them so he does have to be ambitious to some extent and have a job. He doesn’t have to be rich but he should be at least doing okay for himself.
