Can Money Buy Love?

767 views. 2009-12-25 12:45 |Individual Classification:Comment|

Last Sunday, 21 single billionairs and 22 single women attended a party in Beijing. The party was organized by a Shanghai-based match-making agency helping wealthy Chinese men and women find their better half. The admission fee per person was 100,000 yuan, which was one of the most expensive in China, while the 22 women attended for free.

There are 130 known dollar billionairs in China, higher than any other country except the United States, according to the 2009 Hurun report.

People may doubt if the billionairs are buying love in the form of the match-making party. Can love be bought?

The Indecent Proposal, a Hollywood film in which Demi Moore starred, seems to give us the answer.In this film, a billionair cost one million dollars to buy a one-night stand. However, he was unable to buy love in the end.

People might say it was just a story or a fiction made up by a writer. So, what do you think of it ? Can money buy love in real life?

Is there fake love? I think fake love should not be called love.

maybe the love needs to build up on the basis of some materials. because it's a realistic society.

Of course not. That is why some couples can share poverty but can not share riches and honour. Extra money brings various tempertation and love is veiled~

But in reality, do you think the buying things exist?

Maybe. you are realistic.

Samaritan: Maybe. you are realistic.
no, i am not realistic; i am depressed by the realistic society even though i have already graduated from college for almost half one year.

Your answer is no, right?

Samaritan: But in reality, do you think the buying things exist?
Yes, buying things does exist, but what has been bought is not love, but beauty, sex and etc.
Reply warmjaney 2009-12-25 19:44
may i know how do you think it?

warmjaney: may i know how do you think it?
I think it can. Money makes the mare go.
Reply warmjaney 2009-12-25 20:11
lol, you are humorous; but i believe firmly that deeply and real love couldn't be exchanged for money; in short, money couldn't buy the spiritual love.

To some extent, money can buy sex --prostitution is one example. And it can buy beauty--plastic surgery can make one look more beautiful.
