Money is overrated in terms of attraction. Perceived status is what matters (for men), and money is often correlated with status but doesn't directly lead to it

Money is overrated in terms of attraction. Perceived status is what matters (for men), and money is often correlated with status but doesn't directly lead to it. A socially skilled entrepreneur who's broke but confident will do far better than a highly paid socially inept geek.
- pgroves 15y ago"Socially skilled" is similar to "good at picking up girls," so I guess I would agree because that's close to a tautology. I'm just saying that when a girl figures out you work 12 hours a day and live off of $25K a year, much of which comes from credit cards, it is a bit more of a "con" than a "pro" in their mind.
