but she's on the decline, I don't care how many surgeries she's had.

Now if I was the 30,000th richest man in the world, I think this would be a good deal.

But if I was the 74th richest man in the world, I would want something in her prime.

A good analogy is baseball, all the top young players in Free Agency end up on the big money teams (Yanks, Sox, Angels, etc.) then all the old dudes who can't play anymore sign with the small market clubs.

Think Matsuzaka goes to the Sox. Piazza goes to the A's.

This Salma Hayek thing is backwards.

 

I would date her, I would marry her.

I wouldn't marry her if I was the 74th richest guy in the world.

Now, 20 years ago, that would be a reasonable deal.

I don't want to pay for the cow when it's best milking days are done.

I'd rather scout for the next Salma Hayek...or someone hotter who is 18-23.

 

18-23 year old?!? They're b-a-b-i-e-s... honestly!

On whatever occasion that god help me I'm standing in line behind 18-23 year olds and I'm forced to eavesdrop on their conversations, I think THANK FUCKING GOD, I'm not at that age!!! To boot, have you taken a good hard look at some of these 18-23 year olds with their out of shape bodies hanging out of their low rise skinny jeans? They look awful... most women in their late 20's/early 30s take far MUCH better care of themselves and have far MUCH better conversation and "skill" to offer.

Why do you guys love these b-a-b-i-e-s with whiny problems?

You keep missing my point.

I'm a regular guy, NOT the 74th richest guy in the world.

I go for regular hot chicks in my age range and I'm quite happy with it.

ON THE OTHER HAND, if I had billions of dollars, I'm only gonna find golddiggers no matter what I do. True love is out of the question. At that point it becomes a matter of investment with the money. Whomever you marry is going to divorce you sooner or later and take half your money.

Think of it like Capex, NPV project, or an M&A. If I'm going to invest, I want high returns over the longest period of time possible. Youth in theory extends the life of the high growth period returns.

On a separate note, I don't like the ones with out-of-shape bodies. for christ's sake, as you astutely pointed out, they are whiny and babies, so if i am going to have to put up with a whiny baby, she better be smoking hot. Otherwise, you're right, give me a girl my age who's smart.

Keep in mind, as a banker, I'm really not gonna spend any time with them anyway, so I don't have to listen to their whining but once a week or 15 minutes in the morning, so it's not all bad.

It all sounds a bit jaded, but if "soul-mates" exist then you tell me where to find one and I'm in. But I've come across just as many psychos of high intellect and mature ages. Despite what guys say, we're all waiting for the smart, pretty, great conversationalist who understands us, but there aren't many of them out there and if we do find one, they probably won't talk to us anyway when we try hit on them. So we end up settling for hot, whiny 18-23 year olds.

clearly jealous

 

Salma Hayek doesn't do anything for me, she looks like the chick that makes my burrito bols at Chipotle.

Now Eva Mendes, there's a broad that makes me go "dayummmm".

 

She does have a manly jaw, doesn't she?

How about Paz Vega? I think she's much more attractive than Penelope and Salma combined. She's got an intriguing balance going on - sweet look, yet voluptous body...

I'm similar fair skinned and dark hair, but started doing these caramel + blonde highlights a few years ago (think a little lighter than Elizabeth Hurley's hair color). I'm considering going back to a darker, natural brown... just playing with the idea... Sigh. Women and their hair... it's a never ending battle!

I went and checked out Paz Vega...I'm not overly impressed. I wouldn't kick her out of bed, but I'd take both Salma and Penelope over her.

Here's my take on Salma vs. Penelope.

In my opinion, Salma always looks hot. Consistently hot.

Now Penelope, sometimes she looks off the charts hot (hotter than Salma) and other times she looks kind of crappy.

So do you take consistency or higher peak performance?
