By tracking the success of online daters, the researchers calculated precisely how much extra income a man had to make (relative to the average man’s income of $62,500 per year) to offset a less than ideal attribute. Some of their findings:

Suppose you’re an ordinary-looking guy whose online picture is ranked around the median in attractiveness. (In the study, the ratings of attractiveness were done by independent male and female observers hired by the researchers.) And suppose you’d like to be as successful with women as a guy whose picture is ranked in the top tenth. Then you’d need to make $143,000 more than him. If your picture is ranked in the bottom tenth, you’d need to make $186,000 more than him.

Similarly, according to the study, a 5-foot-0 guy would need to make $325,000 more than a 6-foot-0 man to be as successful in the online dating market. A 5-foot-4 man would need $229,000; a 5-foot-6 man would need $183,000; a 5-foot-10 man would need $32,000. And if that 6-foot-0 man wanted to do as well as a 6-foot-4 man, he’d need to make $43,000 more.

So some women prefer rich guys to poor guys. Next thing you'll tell me that Micheal Jackson had some work done on his face! :|

P.S. There isn't enough money in the world to convince some women to date me...

Well, you'll never get every woman to want to date you. But it looks like most women would - for the right price.

I think it is in a few states, not sure. I know there is a few legal brothels in the state of Nevada. (No Ben, I don't know this because I visited them. )

That's an evil suggestion! I'd never buy anything that important off the internet! I went to meet her in person. And then I bought her...
