thanks for the thoughts, u absolutely right, that's why there's a cantonese saying that the biggest fear will be to be "old n poor".
guess that's the reason most people work hard .. to avoid this end
in today's world , money is mostly needed to attract human beings that we live in cos $ is the lubricant that keeps things moving , no one will work for free right ..
Even stanley ho, the rich macau casino kings know that his 4 wives n children constantly visits him at the hospital n act filial cos they are all eying for a share of his assets when he dies .
so women equally have a right to be materialistic cos they r only human
of cos its good to be young n dashing but everyone age so if one continues to like young n pretty women (sorry this is my sin), then it'll be a matter of time before one needs to pay for the service .
Cost wise, paying for the service can usually be more efficient too as many guys would have spent more on dates n stuff before even being able to hold a women's hand
good looks is one thing n age is another, even if a guy is still relatively good looking, he might still have a problem picking up young girls when he's older as mms do not like the age barrier
the other problem is that good looks is a door opener but will only benefit to a point, once one settles down n moves in with the women, money will still talk cos its a lubricant needed in life
the other thing is what Warren Buffet like to refer to as "Value for $" or what the americans like to call getting the best "Bang" (ahem) for the buck
If one has worked hard to accumulate the cash he has, one will like to stretch n get the best value for his $ (or at least be seen to be doing so prevent others from labeling him "stupid" for allowing himself to be shortchanged n be paying more for everything), that is actually my purpose in bringing up the topic in the first place , sorry if i did not state it clearly.
SG is a nice place to live in but does it offer the best value for $ ( u bet the rich guys will be thinking about this , why spend 10k per month in sg when the same 10k can bring you 2-5 times the enjoyment elsewhere ?), then there is the problem of over regulation n the feeling that big brother is always watching your every move , mostly waiting to dish out fines to u .. ha
