The other day, we mentioned guys who work on Wall Street are having a hard time—on the job and on the dating scene. If you’re the kind of woman would have blown off the financial type in the past, we’ve got ten good reasons why you should consider giving them a chance now.
1. You can blow his year-end bonus on two-for-one date night at Applebee’s.
2. His bruised ego will make him more amenable to your terms when it comes to your nightly merger.
3. He can sign for your packages while you’re at work and recap “The View.”
4. Need a date for a wedding? He’ll be dying for a chance to wear his Ermenegildo Zegna suit.
5. Sexually, he’ll be interested in exploring new things. He used to love junk bonds. Now, he’ll want his junk in bondage.
6. With no money for Cohiba cigars and daily lunches at Morton’s Steak House, his heart might actually make it to 50.
7. He’ll bring you home free turkey wraps after his shift ends at Subway.
8. He’ll understand the importance of your mutual funds.
9. No more work excuses about why he can’t go thrifting on the weekends.
10. He’s done with hedge funds. It’s time for bush fun!

Having worked on Wall Street for years myself, I’ve known a lot of attractive women who date (and are/were married to) financial industry guys. Yes, some of these guys have lost their jobs or taken a few blows in the past year or so. Do you know what the majority of women involved with these men do when that happens?
THEY LEAVE.
Here’s a better story. I know a guy who’s a real Wall Street quant-jock. The kind of guy who reads statistics books for fun. He didn’t make that much money his first five to seven years out of college. As a result, he never got to date very attractive women, because he didn’t have the cash. a long eight to ten years later, he gets a job with an investment bank starting at about a quarter million a year, with massive benefits and a huge yearly bonus. What happened? The hot ladies started falling all over him. Even better . . . he blew EVERY ONE of them off and eventually married a very nice woman who teaches high school. I should also add that she’s average looking, like him. Two of the best people I know.
Draw your own moral.
