This is what a woman on a dating forum has posted. She asks on a dating forum where in New York single men hang out that make an annual salary of $500k or above.

"I’m going to be honest of what I’m going to say here. I’m 25 this year. I’m very pretty, have style and good taste. I wish to marry a guy with $500k annual salary or above. An annual salary of $1M is considered only as middle class in New York. My requirement is not high.

I wanted to ask: What should I do to marry rich persons like you? Among those I’ve dated, the richest is $250k annual income, and it seems that this is my upper limit. If someone is going to move into high cost residential area on the west of New York City Garden (?), $250k annual income is not enough."

this was the answer of a professional investor on the dating forum.

"Dear Ms. Pretty, I have read your post with great interest. Please allow me to analyze your situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500,000 which meets your requirement, from a stand point of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you.

What you’re trying to do is an exchange of “beauty” and “money” : Person A provides beauty, and Person B pays for it. However, there’s a deadly problem here, your beauty will fade, but my money will not be gone without any good reason. The fact is, my income might increase from year to year, but you can’t be prettier year after year.

Hence from the viewpoint of economics, I am an appreciation asset, and you are a depreciation asset. It’s not just normal depreciation, but exponential depreciation. If that is your only asset, your value will be much worse 10 years later.

Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool. I would advice that you forget looking for any clues to marry a rich guy. And by the way, you could make yourself to become a rich person with $500k annual income. This has better chance than finding a rich fool."
