If you dream of being romanced in style, from vacations in private
islands to Cartier solitaires on your fingers, your best bet is to date
single rich men, loaded with the greenbacks. However, the most crucial part
about dating the rich guys, is to know where to look for them. They are
not your average guy-next-door, who you can come across at the coffee
shop around the kerb or at the grocery store. Single rich men hang
around only in special places when they are not shut up in their
offices, working to make more millions. Here are however, a few places
where you can try your luck in finding single rich men.
Fashionable pubs
If you want to meet the successful professionals, then hang out in
places nearest to their offices. High class pubs near lawyers’ or
doctors’ chambers are likely venues, since busy people rarely venture
far from their workplace, when they wish to relax with a drink after a
hard day. But know when to go, since you are unlikely to meet many
people if you land up in such a pub during peak working hours. Late
evenings, especially at the beginning of a weekend, will usually see the
regular patrons getting together to have a good time.
Premium golf clubs
Golf links are popular haunts of successful businessmen and
executives, where contracts are negotiated and deals are struck.
Memberships to such clubs are generally hugely expensive but see if you
can get a day membership. Better still, try to tag along with a rich
friend, as a guest, and then make the best possible use of your
opportunity. Again, timing is a big factor. Late afternoons on working
days or late mornings on weekends may be the best time for powerful
people to practice their power drives.
Auction houses
Men who are rich and single have only their personal fancies to
indulge. Many among them are avid collectors of artworks or antiques. So
make it a point to follow what is going under the hammer at the best
known auction houses in town and then visit them on the important days.
You are likely to find quite a few rich guys, bidding for their
favourite piece and if you are lucky, there may even be someone single
among them. However, keep in mind that the really rich and busy men will
have their agents at their auction houses but then, that is a chance
you will just have to take. Some of those attending the auction are
likely to be older. Generally people from traditionally rich families
attend auctions of antiques.
Premieres and parties
If you want to meet single men who are rich as well as famous, the
best place is to hang out at events and parties related to the
entertainment industry. Movie and theatre premieres are occasions when
the rich and beautiful people come together. If you can, wrangle an
invitation to the hottest post-premiere parties which generally go on
till the early hours of morning and thus offer a longer time to
socialize. However, do your homework before attending such events so
that you know who is a genuine actor/producer/singer and who is merely
pretending to be one.
- Sports bars
Guys who have the dough to spare and no partners to spend on, are
likely to be avid sports lovers. Frequent the high-end sports bars and
see if you can find someone suitable. Other good places to meet rich and
single sports fans are the exclusive galleries in stadiums at important
matches or post-victory parties of famous sports teams. But be sure to
know your Mets and Giants before chatting up that rich-looking guy at
the bar or you might end up making a fool of yourself.
- Luxury spa resort
What better way for a single and successful executive to de-stress,
than to take a day off at the spa? Visit a luxury resort which offers
exotic massages and relaxing treatments and you may come across someone
rich and available. The main drawback of this venue is that the number
of potential candidates is likely to be limited. On the plus side
however, if you do come across a suitable guy, he is more likely to be
relaxed and open to meeting someone interesting.
- Charity dos
This is another popular venue where the rich and successful people
gather. Even though the main purpose of these $500-a-plate dinners is to
support their favourite cause, such events are important places to be
seen if one is to make a mark on the social scene at. It is likely that
you will find that all the male guests arriving with a date, but in most
cases, the women will be partners only for the evening and so go ahead
and chat up the guys. However, be sure to look and dress your best,
since first impressions do matter when you are dealing with those who
have the best of everything.
- Professional matchmaking services
Most matchmaking services have a section devoted to rich members. You
could sign up for such services and express your desire to meet rich
available men as potential partners. However, such men will have their
own expectations in women and the matchmaker will get you two together,
only when your mutual expectations coincide. But not all rich and
available men are looking for rich women. There are some who would
prefer their partners to have other qualities, like a caring or
non-materialistic disposition.
- Places of business
If you are looking for a rich man to date, hang out in places they
are most likely to frequent, like banks, convention centres or coffee
shops in business districts. Here, the rich guys may be busy with work,
but wait for lunch-hours or coffee-breaks to find time to chat them up
and who knows, you may land yourself a date on Saturday.
- Millionaire clubs
If you are looking for the big fish, find a way to be seen at the
millionaire clubs. These are the places where the really rich boys hang
out. Cocktail parties and weekend bashes are only some of the events
regularly hosted at such venues, where the rich and single can take
their pick of the attractive ladies. While it may take some hard work to
get access to such exclusive venues, once there, you have opportunities
galore. But be certain to look your most seductive, as super-rich men
are used to having the best.
The rich and successful among men generally have their own hang-outs.
So, the key to meeting them is to know where to find them. Don’t fret
if most of these places appear too expensive to frequent, which they
usually are. The most important thing is to be seen at these places and
then make the best possible use of your opportunities.
