It doesnt matter how much money someone has, what does matter is whats inside and how they treat people that really counts.

Would you really want a lady to be with you ...
only for your money? Wouldn't that be in the back of
your mind? Or wouldn't you care?

I agree you might put in a picture. That really does help. Money doesn't matter, sure it is nice but what counts is how are you going to treat a lady.

Yes, it does matter in some aspects and to some degree. I don't believe any woman making a decent living would want to support some man on welfare and food stamps, or vice versa. Although that example is exagerated, you must admit it is reality. As I stated in SOME aspects and to SOME degree. Come on people get real, how many doctors do you know that are married to garbage collectors? Although both professions are admirable, most people tend to stay within their comfort zones, and that includes financial too.

I think it matters only to the degree that someone who is on welfare or foodstamps has no self esteem or motivation. This is providing they are not disabled due to an illness or an accident. Of course, anyone can temporarily be done on their luck due to job elimination. But we all have to keep pushing ourselves whether we are 28 or 58.

Also, what does being of Russian descent have to do with not posting a photo?
I am of German ancestry and my photos were taken with a Japanese digital camera. Should I not eat Mexican food tonight, or not watch my TV manufactured in China, or go to the bathroom in my Kohler toilet because of my background and genes? My statements make as much sense as your comment about why you won't post a photo..........

To the last 2 threads, ladies you both make sense. I have learned a lot in the last 3 days on here. The education has been, shall we say, interesting. I think it is time to make like a turtle, pull in my head, and rethink the whole thing. Been in a fog too long. 
What would you say, if I told you that I am wanted by the KGB, CIA, FBI, SPCA and the IRA?. I'm not, but what would you say?.
Getting out of hand. I am off to work for the day, I would like to stay and chat.

queenofhearts: I appreciate your comment, but I am finding that lady profiles are 3 to 1 with no pictures, I think that stems from the fact that a lady, and rightfully so does not want herself out there for physical reasons to protect herself from perverts etc. Is it right?. No! Is it necessary? Yes!. There are a lot of ladies on this and other websites that do not post photos. The biggest complaint that Yahoo and AdultFriendFinder who supports this website, gets is the lack of photos. Some men, and you will notice the Gender, have posted letters to web administrators, that a photo be a requirement, to be on the site, and some of the more exclusive websites, have what is called verification, where you send in a birth certificate, drivers license, etc to prove you are who you are and your profile is so tagged. Sorry, to get hung up on this, but I have received pressure from people locally, that do not want my picture on my profile. In fact, some don't want me on a website. I can E-mail it on the E-mail portion of this website if you so choose, just ask.

Sadly, why would people locally pressure you not to post a photo? I hate when that happens. My mailman's niece's ex boyfriend's grandmother's neighbor begged me not to, but I ignored her wishes. You certainly come up with some wild excuses..........

Personally, when my employer starts controlling my personal life, it would be time to find another employer. Even when I worked for the federal government they did not demand that kind of control and I worked in a sensitive area part of the time.
In answer to the origin question. I think that in most cases the man would be more comfortable with someone of much lower income then himself. Even if she was on welfare and food stamps. They seem to be more secure in being the primary bread provider and like being the savior of the woman. To give the woman a better life.
I find that women that make a lot of money do seem to be more focused on what a guy makes then what he is. They seem to take money as a major sign of compatibility. IT may be that they are driven by money and want a man as driven. It could be that they are driven by their careers and want men just as driven.
I dated rich women and poor women, I find money really has nothing to do with who they are. I have found that the poorer women seem to be nicer, friendlier and sweeter overall then richer women.
I do know a woman that is the president of a large company and she is married to a maintenance man. Big different in income but they are one of the happiest couples I know, they are laughing all the time and enjoying each other.

I am by trade a government contractor and I will not tell you who my customers are. Anyone who has been on the inside knows one does not disclose certain things in a public forum such as this. As for me material worth means nothing. I had an ex that once had big bucks and I had a woman who once worked for me that was a model in her younger years with Chrisitian Dior. She appeared in ads all over the world, she came from big money, and even married bigger money complete with a house in the Hamptons. She is British and a friend of mine to this day. When she worked for me I had to fire her and hated doing it. I had no choice. Today she is divorced and barely makes it. If I were a single man I would probably have started dating her - that is if she was willing. I don't care how much she is worth or not worth. It is the integrity of the person that matters and she has plenty and why she is a friend of mine. My philosophy is simply this. If you are a credible person sooner or later you will make it and live a good life.

My opinion on that is a person who only wants another for money,looks,or anything selfish is pretty shallow. I have everything I need --a home--nice car---all----but am lonely as h***.

Not sure this should be in this thread, but needed to respond about Welfare and Food Stamps... 
I don't think many of us realize the dire circumstances people are in to qualify for these services. To say a person has low self-esteem or no motivation is ignorant to say the least. Not sure most people are aware of the eligibility criteria to receive welfare or food stamps. Aside from the individual (who will always be in our culture) who wants to take advantage of any system, most recipients are CHILDREN and the parents (or single parent) is working a minimum wage job or returning to school to give their family a better chance. Talk about motivation... just to keep your head above water!
I say, it takes a lot of motivation and courage to go down to your local County Office Building and face those people (for your children) who look at you like your beneath them. If I'm not mistaken in 1950, President Clinton's Mother received government benefits to complete a Nursing Degree to support her family. No matter your perspective on his character... he became president... Just a thought about "motivation and self esteem".

I would like to answer cottage's post. I don't know about other states on food stamps, but it really burns me here in MO because it does affect me. This state thinks our elderly and disabled can live on $10.00 a month of food. I bet our govenor doesn't eat one meal for just himself for that amount. Social Security disablity doesn't pay that much I am doing good to pay rent and utilities. The internet is my only indulgence because I can only watch so much tv.

I agree I think it matters to a certain degree. If I was well off, I would not want to get involved with a man that was struggling. But, since I am not well off, it would be nice to meet someone that is doing a little better then myself. He doesn't have to be rolling in money but a little would be nice.

Yep, I married a man who made a comfortable living and we bought a big house on the hill but just about every day of my life , I listened to how "worthless" I was When one controls the money the other can be made to feel like a slave.

Lawvixen: I could contact my son-in-law in Chicago who works for Leo Burnett, he is married to my Daughter, and is unavalable, but I could contact his associate, who is single, about 46, never married. Leo Burnett is a biiiiig advertising agency, once a week my daughter receives at their house ice chests full of frozen Eggos, from the manufacturer. These are flawless, in manufacturing, what else would you expect for picture taking, for advertising. There is no room in the frig for any more, despite how many get eaten. That is the good side. On the flip side, you will have to deal with Mrs. Smiths pies, Smuckers jams and jellies and Nuttin Honey. That is hilarious, it is a good cereal but my son-in-law is on the road 4 days a week.
