should ET have a "dating" section?

I did not have the chance to post on the thread
"Single female day trader looking for a partner".

May be some females , who are not into trading, would be very much interested in
dating successful traders: could ET make it easy for these females to come into
contacts with such persons, with a "dating" section?

In the past, some posters were actually pimp (male and female) or "Daddy/Madam"
marketing some females under a veil. And even worse, some of these females being
the open door to some criminal networks in search of fools to rob.

Here we had one very decent female putting herself out there, with no intermediary.
She put herself out there, explaining what she was looking for directly.

We could have found out more about the "gold digging" mentality, she was accused of:
the advantages and disadvantages. And people could have discussed in what ways she came
as "gold digging", understanding this mentality would have been an asset.

I also wonder if it is better if people can just have a place where they can "advertise"
in an open way, instead of hiding, creating whatever schemes under whatever guise.

If you want to ask Nitro out, just send him a PM. We don't need a whole thread just for you. What's the worst that can happen..he says no? Then ask again. :)
 
Why? People who want a golddigger as a girlfriend/wife is an idiot. You are better of leasing the time you want. The last thing you want to do is flash around money and try to impress women with your wealth. All that does is lead you to ruin.
 
smallStops, when you ask someone out on this website and they ask where you are from just say "The Mountains"....if they really want a specific location then just say "Brokeback Mountain".

Those who haven't got money, pretend they have which attracts gold diggers, mission nail them before they find out :)

Those who have keep it quite and act poor, so gold diggers not an issue.

Why I get nothing but gold diggers, but even 1's I haven't played still just after the gold :(
 
Traders don't date -- they just will hire a girl to duck when the mood strikes.
Trading is generally a younger man's game... all that risk, and stress and adrenaline element.
They need to blow off steam, or have an outlet of some sort.

That's how this game or world is portrayed in many movies such as: Rogue Trader, Boiler Room, Wall Street, Wolf of WS.
Or, I could be wrong...what do I know...I'm just sitting on the outside looking in o_O:confused:

A dating section for a (trading) world that's 97%+ male is kind of hilarious; it will be more like a meat market for the dogs.
And besides, I personally wouldn't want to date another trader/finance/business woman. Ughh...I'd go nuts.

if you have the reputation you don't have to spend. gold diggers figure they will get it down the road .

These days they all pretend to be Sheldon Cooper I swear, ohhh takes me 6months to kiss a guy, don't like holding hand cause of germs, anxiety bla bla bla, but if you buy me this and this and this I'll thank you later, most expensive thankyou I've ever had.

They've worked out they get more dangling the carrot, instant 'your just after money goodbye!' For me these days.

Last 2 have both been disgusted the 1 before was just using, then tried to do exactly the same, the worlds gone mad.
