This was posted as a response to a "lady" seeking someone making at least 500K a year to enjoy her "articulate" "intelligent" and "beautiful" company in marriage.... (I am still trying to expunge pepsi from my monitor)

I read your posting with great interest and have thought
meaningfully about your dilemma. I offer the following
analysis of your predicament.
Firstly, I'm not wasting your time, I qualify as a guy who
fits your bill; that is I make more than $500K per year.
That said here's how I see it.
Your offer, from the prospective of a guy like me, is plain
and simple a crappy business deal.
Here's why.
Cutting through all the B.S., what you suggest is a simple
trade: you bring your looks to the party and I bring my money.
Fine, simple.
But here's the rub, your looks will fade and my money will
likely continue into perpetuity...in fact, it is very likely
that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that
you won't be getting any more beautiful!
So, in economic terms you are a depreciating asset and I am an
earning asset.
Not only are you a depreciating asset, your depreciation accelerates!
Let me explain, you're 25 now and will likely stay pretty hot for
the next 5 years, but less so each year.
Then the fade begins in earnest. By 35 stick a fork in you!
So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position,
not a buy and hold...hence the rub...marriage. It doesn't make good
business sense to "buy you" (which is what you're asking) so
I'd rather lease.
In case you think I'm being cruel, I would say the following.
If my money were to go away, so would you, so when your beauty fades
I need an out. It's as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is
dating, not marriage.
Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets.
So, I wonder why a girl as "articulate, classy and spectacularly
beautiful" as you has been unable to find your sugar daddy. I find it
hard to believe that if you are as gorgeous as you say you are that
the $500K hasn't found you, if not only for a tryout.
By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and
then we wouldn't need to have this difficult conversation.
With all that said, I must say you're going about it the right way.
Classic "pump and dump."
I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of
lease, let me know.
