Wealthy men have always attracted the most beautiful woman in the world. Even a man in his 60’s can attract a supermodel in her twenties for the right price.
In a study which investigated our “pathological” relationship with money, psychologists think a heavy figure makes us favor our irrational side over the rational.
Much as men and women both desire possession of it, money tends to seduce genders in different ways, according to a study published in the September issue of Social Indicators Research.
Researchers surveyed more than 100,000 individuals in the United Kingdom about their feelings when it comes to the big bucks.
After analyzing the survey results, psychologists split the difference, showing that females, on average, were about twice as likely to associate cash flow with love and emotion, whereas men were about twice as likely to see money as a sign of power and freedom, though the feelings were not mutually exclusive.
