TheresMyFriend: Do you think Hugh Hefner would have the companions that he has...if he were a man of just working hard, and not wealthy?
I don't think so.
-John-
Hugh Hefner is not EVERY MAN nor is his present companion EVERY WOMAN. However, he obviously uses his money to keep the veil over reality, and some ladies are obviously only too happy to help him keep the veil there. On a basic level they could both be very happy. On a soul level? I doubt it ... but it's their journey!!!
maryrachelle: I guess it would mean plenty of disposable income.Money to blow frivolously.Big houses,expensive cars,walk in closets as big as my bedroom.
I guess all that would be interesting and I sure would help him blow his cash in no time - but it's a bit unnecessary... and no, all this stuff doesn't guarantee happiness.
Vallarta is a very wealthy enclave lots of uber rich jetset living in thier multi million dollar villas by the sea. To be honest they freak me out...I avoid that type like the plague Eeeeeee
vyoleta: I am not talking about my opinion, I am talking about how things appear to me in this world. It is not that I approve of it, but this is the reality.
I didn't express any opinion either. I just pointed out logical errors.

I'm sure I've said this before, so forgive me if I'm repeating myself.
In my student days I worked in a chemist that had a small perfumery department. Come Christmas time we were rushed off our feet, most of the sales going to men. They would come in and ask us to recomend a brand and select a product based on price without having any idea of what their partners actually liked, what suited them, or even roughly their preference, flowery, musky, citrusy, whatever.
To my mind they weren't buying a gift. They were buying a piece of status. They were measuring attachment on the pounds sterling scale.
A fella once bought me some Channel. To my mind he wasted a weeks food money on something that smelt foul, would probably have brought me out in a rash and cost about 7 pence to manufacture, bottle and box included. Now call me old fashioned, but I rather a man with a little more intelligence than that.
crazyblondeone: I do not think money can buy real true love. As long as the guy is a hard worker that's all I care about. Expensive presents only serve one purpose and that's a materialistic one. True love is a lot better than a babble.
that`s a bit of a contradiction ...do you agree with me on that???

Reality is subjective.
I have 50 dollars in my wallet,food in my belly,a roof over my head and free health care.Am I rich? Too a woman living in a mud hut in desperately poor country trying to feed her children through begging,I probably am rich to her.By Canadian standards I am pretty poor though.As I said reality is subjective.

Buffy327: Truth here.... If money made me happy I would still be married to what's his name. U can't buy companionship and devotion, but love, not happening....
but what if the tables were turned, do you think "whats his name" would have acted or been any different
