Title: Young and pretty lady wishes to marry a rich guy. Fantastic reply from a

A young and pretty lady posted this on a popular forum:

Title: What should I do to marry a rich guy?

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. You might say that I 'm greedy, but an annual salary of $1M is

considered only as middle class in New York . My requirement is not high. Is

there anyone in this forum who has an income of $500k annual salary? Are you all

married? 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.

I' m here humbly to ask a few questions:

1) Where do most rich bachelors hang out? (Please list down the names and

addresses of bars, restaurant, gym)

2) Which age group should I target?

3) Why most wives of the riches is only average-looking? I ' ve met a few girls

who doesn' t have looks and are not interesting, but they are able to marry rich

guys

4) How do you decide who can be your wife, and who can only be your girlfriend?

(my target now is to get married)

Ms. Pretty

Here 's a reply from a Wall Street Financial guy:

Dear Ms. Pretty,

I have read your post with great interest. Guess there are lots of girls out

there who have similar questions like yours. Please allow me to analyze your

situation as a professional investor. My annual income is more than $500k, which

meets your requirement, so I hope everyone believes that I'm not wasting time

here.

From the standpoint of a business person, it is a bad decision to marry you. The

answer is very simple, so let me explain. Put the details aside, what you 're

trying to do is an ex chang e of 'beauty ' and 'money ' Person A provides

beauty, and Person B pays for it, fair and square. 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 worried 10 years later

By the terms we use in Wall Street, every trading has a position, dating with

you is also a ' trading position' . If the trade value dropped we will sell it

and it is not a good idea to keep it for long term ... same goes with the

marriage that you wanted. It might be cruel to say this, but in order to make a

wiser decision any assets with great depreciation value will be sold or ' lease'

.. Anyone with over $500k annual income is not a fool; we would only date you,

but will not marry you. 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.

Hope this reply helps. If you are interested in ' leasing' services, do contact
