So it's Thursday afternoon. For a second, I thought to myself, "I wish I could just fast-forward one day, so it could be Fri afternoon." It is NOT OK to think this. It means you want to put yourself one day closer to death without any consideration. Clearly the answer is to put yourself in a position where you are spending your day in a way that is more desirable than slowly killing yourself. AKA, get a better job.
Which brings me to the main point of this post. Gold-diggers are unfairly maligned, since they are critical to the global economy.
Once a man has an income above the subsistence level of being able to afford a crappy apartment and an occasional steak and whiskey, there are only two reasons to work harder in order to make more money. The first reason is the male species' innate competitive nature. But if you think about it this is not really a good reason, because guys could just compete in things they enjoy, like sports, rather than at work.
The only reason men actually work is because all women, some more than others, base mating decisions on the male's earning power, wealth, and/or status.
If there was no relationship between money and attractiveness to females, it is my opinion that most men would only make enough to live, and the global economy would collapse. This is the same reason why gold-diggers caused communism to fail. So next time you call a girl a gold-digger, make the tone of the comment appreciative.
