True or false: first you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the woman?

[Anonymous]

It’s a quote from none other than Tony Montana from Scarface. Do you think this statement is true or false? If it’s true, how does this make women look?
Usually when we see a man with a lot of money he has a model looking wife by his side. Do you think he’d still be able to have that if he didn’t have his money? Seems like sometimes it’s a trade off. Man provides the money, woman provides the good looks.
FYI: I’m not trying to cause any bedlam, I’m just curious what people think and what the difference will be between men and women who vote.

True

False

To an extent

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Wake up. No it doesn’t work like this. You’ve got some gold digger piece of shit women out there… But the majority of women just want someone who is stable and nice.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

The women who want "stable and nice" (weak and boring) men aren't much better.

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Lol. Sure… Ok.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

No really. They willingly settle for what they don't want while resenting the man they settled for for not being what they want.

It's a common pattern. I'm sure you've heard of it unless you spent your life living under a rock.

[WhatTheHeckkkk]

Sure.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

Good babygirl

[TrueConfection]

Damn. I let my husband skip the first two steps. What was I thinking? 🤦

[TrueConfection]

Thank you for the MHO ❤

[FýrdracaDócincel]

You monster.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

China is laughing at us and it's all your fault.. I think.

[ohshee]

Or man gets the money thinks he has power so he ask a girl out she say yes and the next day the only power he has is blowing big mac out of his ass . Big shots never learn dude it's a movie why not just be your self be humble. Be nice and happy. You start a ting like your someone your not and you Think your all that. That when a girl will first prove to you how stupid you are and then she will show you how stupid you really are then she will show you how dumb you are and tell you to lick your finger and put it in a light socket . And then she say there's your power you answer your own question true or false you should have. Added in ridiculist

I see it as a value statement rather than something that boils down to true and false and a relatively wise one in this context. I don't see it having anything to do with golddiggers though and more to do with pursuing goals in the correct order to maximize our chances of fulfilling all of them.

A way I might put it as one who is not a mobster, and it applies for both men and women interested in higher pursuits, is to secure your education and career before you go off pursuing a family. It's much more difficult to do things in the opposite order.

[SenileOldMan]

I think it's especially true for people with the wildest ambitions. Pursuing our wildest ambitions often requires a fair share of bold risk-taking, and people tend to become more risk-averse if their well-being is tied to their family's well-being and not just their own. It's generally far easier to build an empire when you're young and single, unobstructed by family both in terms of time and the risks to them, and then build the family after and reap the fruits of your youthful ambitions.

[SenileOldMan]

Having a family tends to make people want to play it safe, not necessarily out of cowardice so much as an unselfish lack of unwillingness to risk the family's well-being in favor of personal pursuits. People usually don't achieve their wildest dreams by playing it safe, and Poker players are rarely ever winning players if they're gambling with scared money.

Money? It's MONEY? Can it be that Homer Simpson has mislead me?

Say it ain't so, Ho!

More realistically- yes, you can get A woman, probably your choice of several women, in fact, when you get money and power; women are indeed attracted to those things. But as so many people seem to have trouble accepting, women can THINK. The kind of women who think with their genitals and follow their instincts unquestioningly aren't really the kind of women whose company you're going to enjoy. Sure, you can get sex out of it, but if that's all you want, you find a hooker for a lot less effort. Is that really all you want?

[MCheetah]

Probably. But I never got the money or power first. So I'm going to assume it's probably true, and going to vote "to an extent."

Hypergamy: Women never date men poorer, shorter, or better looking than them.

[LohrvsData]

I've never really believed that. Don't get me wrong, I don't personally know a lot of rich people, so I could be wrong. However, I've always believed that it simply can't be possible that every woman could be quite that shallow. Money doesn't always equal happiness, after all, and some rich men can be right douchebags.

[annabananna]

There are poor men with good looking women so it can’t be 100% true. You do need a good personality as well. If money is the ONLY thing you got going for you than the kind of girls you’ll attract won’t be the ones you want to attract. Having money never hurts though all in all.

[Chthou95]

Those women aren't dating those men for their personalities though lol. I love poltically correct comments

[loveslongnails]

Let's finish the quote:
" First you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the (type of) woman... who's attracted to money and power".

Yes, it's true, and you can keep her! Most women like that aren't worth having around except for sex and eye candy.

[lilaccc]

yes you get the power but you must know not all women focus on money. even a women can provide money for herself.

[MCheetah]

"you must know not all women focus on money"

Yeah, but like 90% of them do. Tell me the last woman you met willing to happily date a guy who earned less than her. I'll wait. 😂

[lilaccc]

so 10% means you still believe that "women not focus on money" is exists.

then good luck finding women like that,
no need to wait when you have a d1ck and pride as a men with hope that you will search and can get a great women.

[Raindnz]

there are men that look for successful women too! So it’s not one way street.
And when a woman wants someone that makes as much as her it does not mean the focus is on money. It may be that they do not want to compromise on their life style just because he does not make as much. And we traditionally look at men as bread winner. So it could lead to hurt egos and unhappy relationship too!

[MTC29]

Men don't need power of money to get women.

I have seen many nice women hooked up with guys who didn't have two dimes to rub together to know this as fact.

[FýrdracaDócincel]

Say it louder for the uninteresting, passionless schmucks in the back.

[Dragonpurple]

There is no set order, but like all things in life money helps but isn't a 100% requirement. Power is relative, not even sure what that means.

I've had women with no money and no women when I have money so yeah not true.

[RawIronhide]

Depends on the type of woman your looking for. If you get money and power. The girls that are interested in you will be the type that's interested in money and power. Is that what you want?

[rabbitzzz]

Such a sad life. No money no woman.

Where I have seen couples where the woman supported the guy when he had little or no money and they build together. Those dudes are lucky.

[Hellraiser1984]

Homer Simpson: first you get the sugar then you get the power then you get the women.

[MCheetah]

This is MHO on here!

[EmmaMary]

You need to stop watching films and get a real life.

[Vegasrunner]

Lol, This obviously true. Hopefully you are realizing this at a young age and applying this philosophy.

[FreyaRed]

First, you care about your appearance
Second, you don't behave like a spoiled brat
Third, girls find you

[NathanDavis]

I live in the real world... so all this nonsense doesn't quite apply to the reality

[Anonymous]

Every man wants a hot chick. So the hot chick gets to pick whatever man she likes best. Turns out, lots of chicks like a dude w/ money and/or power. So there you go.

[zagor]

More like then you get the women. If you just want one good one, you don't need the other stuff first.

[msc545]

first you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the woman, then you get fucked over by the woman and lose the money.
