What are the new destinations for meeting gay men of means?

I am in my late twenties and attractive. I want to meet an influential man for companionship.

Where might I travel to meet such a man?

I live in a small town now.

Should I become a flight attendant?

Welcome to the 21st century, OP.

If you want to meet and have a relationship with an educated, successful, professional man....

BECOME an educated, successful, professional man. Because that's who most of them are looking for.

The highest rates for whores are in the highest priced cities, such as London, Zurich, and Dubai. But those gentleman pay for QUALITY and there is STIFF competition.

Precious little country lamb- you had better be a lot more than just 'attractive'. The competition is fierce. And being in your late 20s would suggest that you are already too late to start.

Perhaps flight attendant is your best option.

Men of means don't want dumb pretty young things until they turn 70 or 75. So, if you're up for some geriatric fucking and don't mind taking care of them in their decline, then you should have some options.

But don't expect any respect from anyone - as they'll always give you side-eye while you're with your aging hubby.

Any man under 70 who will take you on and support you financially will make you earn EVERY penny and hold their power over you for your entire life.

by Anonymousreply 30October 25, 2020 4:02 PM

I would say your odds are better in Wilton Manors and Palm Springs - there are a lot of guys who already left their successful jobs and who are pursuing other interests.

Many of these guys are in their 50's - but they could be lonely in their semi-retirement. If you meet men in major cities like NY, LA, etc. they are usually still working and busy with their careers. I would think those types would be less open to having to care for someone financially or who doesn't already have a career.

There are tons of older single gay men - but it's not easy to find one with a decent amount of money, who is still attractive, and who isn't too damaged.

But it can be done.

[quote]Late 20s early 30s can be a sweet spot for a very gorgeous, very professional whore

Gay men care about appearances. Not just the physical appearance of their partner, but about how people will view them as a pair. Plenty of older gay men want a younger man who looks good but also has some career path that's of interest: Art History, international something or another, landscape architecture, arts management, museum lighting specialist...something tidy and clean and with a bit of prestige to it. With that he has a handsome young man "AND VERY BRIGHT." It's a double prize because it shows that the younger man didn't fall off a turnip truck and move in with the first man who offered him room and board. It also smooths over the business of "it's the older one who pays for everything, of course," making that less whore-john and more protege-benefactor. But it has to be reasonably legit or the sham will be smelled out in no time at all.

I've always been attracted to conservative business types. I had heard that the Townhouse in New York was the place to go. Around 1998, I finally convinced a few friends to try it out while we were there in NY for a weekend.

It was a waxworks of old dudes many with them with too much plastic surgery. After one round of drinks and several old fucks hitting on each of us, I convinced our group to leave. We were all in our 30s at the time but there- fresh meat. Too depressing and disgusting.

Now's a great time to become a flight attendant with Covid-19 and all. As if the job wasn't annoying enough before the pandemic. And with everyone having to wear masks, how are you gonna tell if they're actually hot? At late 20s, you've surpassed the NYC milk expiration date but you're quite close to the suburban expiration date. Usually the "I'm too pretty for Albany/Fresno/Corpus Christi etc" get out in their late teens. I wouldn't get your hopes up for a pampered life.

Agreed with R36 about the 'protege-benefactor' appearance. Those always get a pass.

But an unpolished, unworldly pretty young guy will always be dismissed and met with scorn and contempt.

Plus, you can't be TOO young. I think mid-30's is when it has the appearance of being acceptable. Older men know they look like fools to be with guys in their 20's and early 30's.

You can always lower your standards and go for the professional worth 5 to 10 million rather than holding out for the hundred millions and above. That would at least be a comfortable lifestyle, if not as luxurious. The advantage is that the competition is much lower for those men.

Maybe older gay men looking for social contact and some young energy should host gay asylum seekers. There are associations that help. They'll be neither your lovers, nor your children. Just people who need some kindness and generosity and a chance at a new life.

R66 There are lots of regulations about how asylum seekers can work, or not. Usually they are required to do some community work for a low salary. You could pay them under the table to be your maid as well but that's kind of not the set up.

I have had two maids paid under the table while waiting to get papers but you know what? I paid them market rate and one was a computer programmer and the other a nurse. Don't assume desperate immigrants and asylum seekers are unskilled and uneducated.

Generally speaking, if a gay man hasn’t been in a long term relationship by age 35, they won’t be. My single friends in their 50’s can’t tolerate anything but their own routine and generally have low self esteem. But there are always exceptions, good luck with that.

Be wary. 68 is not 78, and it's not 88 or 98. DL is a magnet for hypochondriacs and people who insist of the very best quality in everything, whether it's toilet paper or sheets of a thread count beyond the work of angels, or memorial candles to keep a steady flame for their memorials to Mother. A fair number of them would go to any lengths, medical and otherwise, to live forever.

But worse than the that, there's always some old fool who, in a fit of pique, changes his will to leave the bulk of his estate to a niece and nephew in Florida, unseen for 20 years, with a small annual allowance for the devoted life partner to look after the mean little yappy dog who will outlive us all.

OP, I inadvertently discovered just the place where older men of means meet younger attractive men looking to "advance themselves". I'm in my 60's and for the last 25 years have belonged to a somewhat exclusive urban health club in a major metropolis. The initiation fee and monthly dues ensures a certain caliber of membership. A young man looking to meet interesting - and interested - older gentlemen need only to keep his eyes open while in the locker room or in the grill as he walks through to see whose eyes are following him. It helps to keep your ears open too. Casual conversations frequently occur spontaneously in the lounges or restaurants. ("Excuse me, I couldn't help overhearing your comments about your new racket. Can you give me some advice?") My current companion is a 30-something real estate attorney who used just those tactics to strike up a conversation after "stalking" me for a few weeks. Fortunately for me, he's into daddies. We've been together for 4 years and enjoy each other's company. I don't kid myself this is a LTR (I was in one for 23 years and don't want another) and am just enjoying it for what it is. And yes, he's mentioned in my will.
