“Being broke is a temporary situation. Being poor is a state of mind”— Mike Todd.
Over the years the world has made sure that “women love money” become an established fact. Though some may see it as sheer trite I am still in agreement with the former. Women indeed love money but generally everyone loves money.
Anyone who pulls their tongue away when they are being fed with honey must have a serious issue with their taste buds. Who wouldn’t want to flourish and swim in wealth, eat the food they want, go on luxurious vacations, and drive all luxury cars of their choice? Wouldn’t you want to change your wardrobe as and when they want? I mean who would dare say no to luxury?
Put feminism and the “what men can do women can do it and even better” attitude most women have hanging loosely around their necks aside. Let’s just cut to the chase. Women don’t like broke men. Women want to be taken care of and ‘spoilt’ in every way possible. So what do we do?
We look for men who have the potentials to render such services. A typical woman places value on how much money a man has since success at large is measured by one’s net worth— Then we twist it around calling it ambition, independent, responsible and what not. The question we should be asking is, does the world not have enough men who are ambitious, independent and responsible yet broke? Why then do women not go in for them? Simply because their pockets are not fat. Period!
Admittedly women love money but that does not make them gold diggers. How many men in recent times would even want to wife a woman who has not had formal education? We have men looking for girlfriends who are established and having something meaningful and worthy going on in their lives.
Would you say these men are gold diggers too or in the men’s world he is just being choosy and particular? The reasons why women do not want to date broke guys are far too many but the obvious one remains, what if he never makes it or get rich?
That phobia is capable of making any woman not want to involve herself with such persons.
It is often said that two things define us– our patience when we have nothing and our attitude when we have everything.
A broke guy may probably come across as the meek lamb because he has but not enough. But the question is how would he behave once he has money in excess? One of the most painful things that could ever happen to anyone is to watch your struggle and hard earned money you made with someone being enjoyed by another. Just like a guy wouldn’t marry a village girl for the fear of changes once she meets sophistication, same way a lady would fear opting for a broke guy.
It is subjective. Whilst others wouldn’t want to have anything with a broke guy for whatever reasons, others think otherwise.
Personally being broke has never being an issue. I have never dated anyone because of their material possession or wealth but I would label myself a hypocrite if I say I wouldn’t want my partner to spoil me with money. I think that only but a few were born into riches and the rest would have to make it on their own.
So provided you are conscious, able and willing to climb that success ladder, why won’t I give us a chance?
