| If you are one of those people (like me) who enjoy material things, then having a lot of money will most certainly bring up more opportunities for happiness. Yes, there are more important things in life, like friends and family. But wouldnt it be even better if you had awesome top brand clothes, an... |

why do you keep seeing them and INVITING THEM!??
Your ex are history.
Meet new girls, please.
When we were dating I spent money on entertainment for them and myself, I don't spend time with them anymore, hence the ex- part. |

I agree The Voyage Home continues to be the best of the bunch. That time period seemed to produce a lot of really good comedy/sci-fi movies for some reason, like Back to the Future. |

| The part where the nobody actor says "it's an ALTERNATE REALITY!@#$" made me cringe though. I guess that would have been a good out if it totally were to tank, or if they want to make another one that doesn't follow the alternate history in this one, similar to how all of Enterprise was apparently a... |

| I thought the plot seemed strung together, and the plot elements in common with Nemesis added to my feeling that the writers phoned it in. Also, lots of the characters were undeveloped, especially the villain. Edited to add: Although it was visually quite enjoyable, and the actor who played McCoy wa... |

| I sometimes wonder if I had serious amounts of money, if suddenly doors would open, or if that's just propaganda from too many commercials and Hollywood. If it indeed was the case, I'm not sure how I'd feel about it, it would be easy to be cynical and think people were only spending time with you be... |

| I'm not exactly independently wealthy, but it seems to me that the more money I have to spend on entertainment, e.g. going to the pub, restaurants, movies, or whatever, the more social opportunities present themselves, versus when I was totally poor. So in general does having more money make you mor... |

| It's obviously not cut-and-dry, and there's a danger of stereotyping and making broad generalisations, but I'd agree with the initial post that people who are attracted to those with high social status, "rich, alpha-male types", and strong social skills, rather than your typical not-exceptionally-we... |

| This book seems like it might be useful, however, it turns out to be rather superficial. One of the most off-putting points, which casts doubt on its credibility from the beginning, is that the book is plagued by typos and grammatical errors that would have been caught had it gone through any sort o... |

| Have you tried Online dating? No, but after what people have said about its ineffectiveness (including your comment), I don't see much point in trying. Plus, as far as "making the first move", it's probably the same as in real life -- guy asks the woman, and he gets rejected 99.99% of the time. Tha... |
