The ultimate sugar mama ain't saying he's a gold digger. In fact, she's trying to disprove that.
If the Spanish Duchess of Alba teaches us anything, it's that you can find love at any age. At 85, the twice-married—let's take a deep breath!—Maria del Rosario Cayetana Alfonsa Victoria Eugenia Francisca Fitz-James Stuart y de Silva will give away her millions to marry Alfonso Diez, a civil servant 24 years her junior. She's giving the fortune to her children simply to prove to them that the love is genuine and Diez is no gold digger.
On WhatsYourPrice.com, dates go to the highest money bidder. Yet it's not prostitution...
A new website allows members to bid on attractive users for a first date. If you're attractive, single, and broke, create a profile on WhatsYourPrice.com. Name your price, wait for the offers to come in, and negotiate with the bidder until you've reached a deal. The bidder will fork up the cash on your first date (if he's a guy, presumably after he's already paid for dinner). It's every girl's dream come true!
The sugar mama survival handbook: how to know he's after your money, and what to do if he is.
As documented in our piece, "The Rise Of The Sugar Mama," the age of the female gold digger is over. These days it's men who are dating women for their money. So how do you know if a man is after you or your wallet? The YourTango Experts sound in.
I'm not saying you're a gold digger, but maybe you should be, say the authors of "Smart Girls Marry Money." According to co-writers Elizabeth Ford and Daniela Drake, blindly following your passion for that guy at the coffee shop without considering other factors first could leave you single and not so well-off later in life.
As a general rule of thumb I feel it’s pretty safe to say that human beings enjoy a wide array of “stuff.” From the newest electronic gizmos to frozen pies, we are creatures of comfort who are also partial to picturesque living environments and holidays. But to what extreme will people go to acquire belongings or to create an exquisite lifestyle where relaxing for a week at a ritzy five-star resort becomes a life norm?
I had a situation recently where a man with a fabulous job asked me out. Other than the fact that he was no George Clooney look-alike and was wearing expensive leather dress shoes in humid, 80 degree weather with no socks, he seemed like a decent man. And, based on his high-level title with a well-known corporation, I’d be willing to take a suckers’ bet that the night would be filled with VIP perks.
Sucker-bet aside, in reality I was more enticed to go out with him for the possible “perks” rather than romance and his potentially smelly and sweaty feet.
Who gets the ring in a broken engagement? Who gets the self-worth?
An ophthalmologist from Ohio may have gotten in over his head. He was pressured to become engaged to a woman after a mere six weeks of dating. Naturally, the operation went sideways and the engagement ring is now in question. The woman claims that the $58,000 ring was a gift, while the guy accuses her of pulling the 'ol bait-and-switch. Is she just a gold digger?

Why one mom sets up young girls with rich older men, and believes it can help you find love.
Simone Dadoun-Cohen is an entrepreneur, former exotic dancer, wife, mother of three, and pot-stirrer. Her website, EstablishedMen.com, seems recession-proof, as it counts over 250,000 affluent men and beautiful young women among its members. One of the only "Sugar Daddy" sites with a female at the helm, Established Men was recently profiled on Nightline, which posed the question as to whether Dadoun-Cohen is a thinly veiled pimp of sorts.
Men care less about your number of sexual partners and more about what you've done with them.
Lots of people think a woman's "number" is a big deal. Most dudes don't really want to know. They do want to know if she has sexually transmitted diseases. Or if she's still friends with any of the famous guys she's had sex with. Or, exactly, how kinky is she.
