if I say that I search a handsome, witty, rich guy of a fertile age to fall in love with - (77)

I do have a 26yr old daughter and we have talked about it -she is also very beautiful, educated and very smart, getting her second degree- and she would choose a YOUNG and educated partner and then work the two of them to get their goals.

She would prefer a European young gentleman for a partner and she is planning to apply for a job in a Nordic European country.

Wish biggest luck to your daughter - young ladies with talents and persistence deserve success and I hope she will get there :)

As for "rich" - very curious that this is the key word that most people catch in my statement - it seems that nobody here has problems with being handsome and clever but some finacial position in life is still to be worked on :)
As I see it, to be rich does not always mean to be spoiled and to waste your time paying to young blondes , eating caviar and spend time in Monaco casino. But I really believe in brains and hard work, combined with some luck, and these three engines will definitely bring you to a secure financial and social situation. So what is so irritating about being rich?

Happened also to me )) and actually i still believe that attitude to women and people in general doesn't depend much on their financial situation. I worked in a kids' camp in the USA, and together with american kids there were two children from the French Rothschild family, and there were perfect kids with polite attitude and manners, not arrogant or spoiled at all (comparing to american children, by the way). Another case - if the person achieved everything in his life by himself , due to hard work, and in this case people value what they have, and don't waste for nothing.

I know type of men I fall in love with )) and yes, success is one of the key points :) And guys, be honest - would you prefer stupid ugly and not really young lady , even with the biggest heart? I have plenty of friends like this , and they are all single, because guys need beauty, easy communication and kind heart comes only after the first two points click. So why we? girls, cannot ask for handsome, clever and rich guy? Sometims dreams come true ))

Well, my son is handsome, young, well educated and has a great job in the investment industry.

The girl he chose as a girlfriend is British, successful lawyer, beautiful, articulate, down to earth and makes even more money than he does...

fair couple ! ))) so it exists )))

Yes, of course it exists. It is only a problem, in my opinion, if there is a huge difference between the two people.

I often get mail from people who have no job, no education, but BIG egos. They say they think we are a good match and I sit here and wonder what makes them think so (Perhaps they are socialists and want to redistribute my money into their account and then we would be equals ) Sorry, couldn't help a bit of sarcasm

you really have a wicked sense of humour )) in my case the situation is a bit different - I have a good situation here, university degree and nice job, but generally ex USSR countries are in worse economical conditions than EU or USA .. so I regularly get offers from guys with hints how I can improve my economic conditions )) Very kind of them, isn't it ? ))

you definitely overestimate my wicked side ))
