(Time) Singles Cruise for the 1%: Where Money Buys Love, Sort of
By KATE SPRINGER | @katespringer | May 20, 2012
All aboard! Please have your tickets and financial statements ready.
Pause for a moment and consider how hard it must be for the 1%. The hassling by Occupy Wall Street types, the constant harping from Warren Buffett about how you should really pay more taxes, the incessant chatter of all those people trying to make you feel guilty about your fabulous wealth. It all wreaks havoc on one’s personal life. No wonder creepy finance guys have such trouble dating.
Thankfully, there’s now an answer. Behold: Exclusive dating for singles in the 1%. As Rich Gosse, Chairman of The Society of Single Professionals, explains:
“Everyone thinks the wealthy have it easy finding love. Nothing could be further from the truth. The 1% live in constant fear that their money will attract gold diggers, seeking to enrich themselves. The 1% Singles Cruise and 1% Singles Ball will be opportunities for the wealthy to comfortably meet people on their own level, so they can feel more confident that the attraction is romantic rather than financial.”
