what i meant is that i do hope guys stop being gullible about all those oh-so-lovely-loyal-ladies that always stand by the sides of their partner when shit hits the fan, ESPECIALLY when it comes to money. in fact, being in a relationship in and of itself is a transaction, heck why would a guy falls for a girl? either:- she's hot, sexy, knows how to cook, or something else, likewise, what makes the girl falls for the guys? perhaps its due to the guy's good look, strong financial power, etc....
so you get the gist, hell we all do. which is why courting nowadays are so much harder than when we're way back in the ancestor's age and shit. no good looks? ok, perhaps with the money, hopefully the poor dude can fix his face, no money? okay, keep on working till he gets richer/stable, until then, he'd better stop courting and starts working, unless of course if he intends to be single
I agree that human interactions are a function of transaction + social conditioning. Currencies of transaction are subjective.
Personally, I would rather hang outs with friends that makes me laugh or shares fun dirty jokes than a bunch of grandiose that's recycling their whatever X, Y, Z that I don't give a shit about.
Hint. No everyone shares the values and definitely not appreciated the same.
As for money, it's useful to certain extend. Statistically has proven that.
In fact, statistically, most who won lottery ends up worse than before. Creating wealth is tough. Keeping them is tougher.
Having that said, money is important. And money has a strong function of usefulness. Hence, it's important for anyone to continue to be useful/more useful. Agreed.
But when comes to human interaction; between two useless idiot I have to choose to work with, I will choose the one with a more pleasant personality.
What has made courting harder is open for debate. Last time. Only need money. Now, need money, good look and hot body. Thanks to equality of opportunity.
But look at the bright side, she is paying for the wine. What to complain? Geez
