I have a friend -- EE, super smart and brilliant, but awkward and definitely on the shyer side. Looks maybe 6/10 on a well-dressed day; imagine your typical short Berkeley EE nerd. He's been Nvidia engineering since well before the pre-covid days, and recently just bought a house in Palo Alto (I checked redfin and it was 3.5mil!!). I told him it wouldn't hurt if he alluded to the fact that he's always been fascinated with GPUs, games, etc (which is all true), and hence why he worked for NVidia since 2017 upon finishing grad school. He says he purposely leaves off the fact that he is NVidia to fend off any potential gold diggers, which I sort of understand, but IMO it's better to have prospects and thin them out rather than have no prospects at all. Any women want to chime in -- would this move the needle AT ALL in considering a right swipe on a dating app? TC 200K
Won't speak for all women, but it would come off as real weird to me
How do you like service now?
Your friend needs to build confidence and experience before finding real love. No better way to learn than on some throwaway gold diggers.
Came here to say exactly this. This is spot on
he isnt wrong, there are a lot of gold diggers. The question he needs to ask though is how likely he is to find a normal woman at this point in his life if all he can muster is dating apps a gold digger isnt a horrible option. If she has good maternal instincts and just wants her meals paid for, thats good enough
The thing with gold diggers is they know at least half and likely more is theirs if they divorce.
Money can make you better looking, look at Elon before and after he had money.
Most women won’t even know what company that is
If it doesn’t match your friend’s personality, he shouldn’t do it.
A GeForce RTX sticker on the forehead might help attract gamer girls.
It's actually opposite in some cultures, people boost of job profile and company to get good match. He can definitely try this.
I’d get the H100 installed on my chest for good measure
