And tax free. Because they’re gifts!
Women are much smarter than men. Girls are much smarter than boys. But... Only Fools Fall In Love!
Except for paying a prostitute. And even then,
the money is so she’ll go away afterwards.
Yes they do.
I hate to say this, but my mother is one of those women who will fall for the lamest sales line. I remember as a kid at the airport waiting to pick up a visiting relative, a Hari Krishna freak talked her into buying one of his LP albums.
WOW!
I didnt even think of tax-free
super idea!
And to think I wasted 16 years in university.. .when I could have made over $4 million a year from the comfort of my bed, online
Praise the Lord for this newfangled internet technology stuff! yippee! /s
Just look at the great women scientists. They totally outnumber men.
I remember in my engineering classes, so many women...
The old “I’m a millionaire but I need you to front me some money” gambit.
“The old ‘Im a millionaire but I need you to front me some money’ gambit.”
And it works. I’ve seen it on Investigation Discovery many times. DH and I are yelling, “Don’t do it! Don’t do it!” LOL!
He got caught later. You lose points for that regardless of the degree of difficulty. :)
I tried online dating once. The woman I talked to on the phone, and subsequently did not date, turned out to be the estranged wife of a co-worker. The universe was hinting to me, and I took the hint.
My son uses online dating but I have yet to see him find anyone good looking. Luckily, he doesn’t seem to care what they look like. That’ll get him far.
Bingo.. there's a sucker born every minute.
He looks familiar...
Many stories abound of men scammed by women, too.
It’s not a man or woman issue.
Why did she fall for it?
If anyone asks you for money, do NOT give it to them.
Good point. In the old neighborhood, back in the old days, it was common knowledge that conmen (such as pool hustlers) played on a person's greed.
Example: Stranger walks into the pool hall, pretends he can't shoot pool very well, and the locals think they can take advantage of him. Of course he takes their money in the end.
I know some people find true love on Match and OurTime, and good for them. There’s just too much risk of someone getting hurt emotionally and/or financially. These stories happen because there are very good scam artists and very decent people who are trusting all looking for something. It’s a bad combination.
this young actress thought she found love with a wounded vet.
