How to Date a Millionaire. Nobody wants to be labeled a gold digger, but who among us
doesn't want to dabble in the finer things? Here's how to date a member of the eligible
elite. You will need Classy-looking attire Good grooming habits Posh hangouts Conversation
skills Confidence Grace Impeccable manners and a dating service for finding rich singles
(optional). Step 1. Dress to attract the type of person you're aiming for: classy, sophisticated,
and elegant. You don't need an entire wardrobe of expensive clothes, but a few designer duds
won't hurt. Wear understated colors and natural fabrics like wool and silk. Wealthy people
notice the details. Keep up your personal appearance by getting regular haircuts, manicures,
and pedicures. Step 2. Spend time in posh place: hotel bars, art galleries, upscale
health clubs, and anywhere else rich folks congregate. Or, volunteer at a philanthropic
organization, where you'll be able to meet humanitarians with deep pockets. Step 3. Find
a way to approach your millionaire and strike up an interesting conversation. Keep it upbeat
and light, but don't dumb it down. Nearly 90 percent of high-achieving men say they
prefer a woman who is just as or more intelligent than they are. Don't bring up money. Millionaires
can spot a gold digger a mile away, and rich women can be especially self-conscious about
their wealth. Step 4. Confidently and gracefully ask for a date. Suggest something simple like
an afternoon lunch, and have a favorite restaurant in mind. Knowing something about the menu
will win you points. Step 5. On the date, be friendly and down to earth, but practice
good manners. Men should pull out a woman's chair, and women should be courteous and gracious.
Posture is also important, so sit up straight and maintain good eye contact. Step 6. If
you can't find a millionaire on your own, consider using a formal matchmaking service
that caters to affluent clients. Reputable services will thoroughly screen their customers
to verify their personal wealth and make sure they're a good match for you. Plus, women
can often join these services for free. Step 7. Landing a rich partner can certainly improve
your quality of life, but money isn't everything. Make sure you like the person for the right
reasons, and find some common interests that will help the relationship to grow. Finding
real love is the best way to make yourself feel like a million bucks. Did you know Not
all millionaires live in New York and L.A. A study found that the U.S. cities with best
ratio of rich, single men to women include Anchorage, Alaska, Naples, Florida, and Sheboygan,
Wisconsin.
