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

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.

700 is low. No one with any sort of money smarts should be under 800.

Slightly amended to reflect reality.

"And 100 years ago what I did wasn’t all that remarkable."

Very on Point Megan. Shoot even just a couple of Decades ago, at 10 year Difference between a Man and Woman was almost invisible to most people.

Seriously, what happened where men could not provide for their Women and Families?

My credit score is 846, baby. “Date” better be a euphemism.

I'm guessing that she has probably had to date her share of hoodrats, so I can see where she is coming from a little bit.

“Neither do I-—it’s just her thing.
No different than checking job,education,background(criminal—previous marriages),looks,or height.”

Credit score isn’t everything, lady. Mine is very high ... well above your standards. Doesn’t make me rich. You’re gold-digging days will be short, no doubt.

Well above my standards? You think?

Good credit is important, just like good hygiene and good grammar. "You're gold-digging days..." doesn't meet my standards. LOL
