I Only Date Guys With High Credit Scores
New York Post ^ | August 25, 2016 | Christian Gollayan

Posted on 08/25/2016 9:50:22 AM PDT by nickcarraway

When it comes to love, Martina Paillant won’t settle for someone who has a credit score below 700.

“I need a man who has his life together and can pay his bills,” the 22-year-old Canarsie, Brooklyn, resident tells The Post.

Paillant, who attends graduate school in Miami, asks potential suitors their credit scores by the fourth date. While some may call her snooty for checking someone’s FICO number before becoming Facebook official, she’s been focused on her finances since she was 16 years old and has a credit score above 800.

I think this is a good thing. Far too many women out there sleeping with body pierced tatted up criminals, on welfare with multiple kids for the rest of us to support. If more women were like her, perhaps society would begin to return to a more rational balance where the takers don’t reproduce like rats and eventually overwhelm the social support system, and become a political majority.

Does she also bring a glucose meter to see how much sugar daddy has?

I see nothing wrong with this.

It seems a little forward and a little soon to ask that question. However, by the 4th date you get an idea how responsible a man is with his money.

Being responsible is an absolute essential in a mate. If one person is responsible and the other one isn't - that relationship won't last.

Prostitute? Because she wants someone who is stable and knows how to run his finances? I don’t see it. I think it is a wise and mature thing for her to do.

The fact that he has a good credit score doesn’t mean that she expects him to take care of him. It could mean that she doesn’t want him to overspend and take her money with him. She identified ability to handle money as an important skill in a spouse, and I approve of her ability to see into the future at a young age.

Sounds like she will destroy one mans credit rating then move on to another stupid sucker.

Yeah, probably a whore.

This thread is turning out to be a good test of conservatives who know how to manage money, and folks who aren’t and don’t.

Mine too.
Though she had lived in the Seattle area her whole life (born in ‘56), she moved to an Arizona trailer park about four years ago. I’m told it is actually pretty similar to the one in Raising Arizona, but not quite as nice. No, I’m not joking.

The divorce was bitter, and I actually wish it had worked out for her, but it was her choice to “kill the golden goose”. Meanwhile, I’ve been in marital bliss in the 18 years since, experiencing what I thought was only the stuff of fairy tales. Yes, it really is that good. We simply fit.

“. Far too many women out there sleeping with body pierced tatted up criminals, on welfare with multiple kids for the rest of us to support.”

You don’t need to see their credit score. I think a date or two would give you enough time to inspect for tats, and body piercings. And how does he reason, what does he do for a living? Is he articulate? Is he organized? Does he follow a moral code? You don’t need to spend too much time with some one to figure out these things.

I know a woman who married a man who had not paid a fine that he got to repay damage done by him and his buddies to property back when he was about 16 years old...

after they married she found she had to help him pay more than $2,000 or he was going to jail...

“I see nothing wrong with this. “

Neither do I-—it’s just her thing.

No different than checking job,education,background(criminal—previous marriages),looks,or height.

She looks like a prostitute...and a low-rent one at that. Or a tranny. Who would waste their good credit on this skank?

I think your post is the best of the thread so far.
