Craigslist Experiment (claiming I'm rich)

[LowPlainsDrifter]

I thought it might be interesting to go to a really nice hotel lounge, really dressed up, and work on some impressive looking spreadsheets or powerpoint presentations.
If an HB asks about it, say you're doing the financial analysis for some company.
I know enough about oil extraction, for example, to make up some shtick about how I'm lining up investors in a new type of recovery that will let us revisit old wells once thought to be dried out or unrecoverable.
In other words, make up a whole story about something interesting that involves money. You don't even have to say, "I'm rich."
Plus, inventing a scenario makes for more conversational fodder.

Tell her you just got your weekly allowance of $100, and you're rich!

Or tell her now that you have a job at McDonald's instead of working on the farm, you're RICH (hey everything is subjective right).

Excellent idea! +1 rep

In Jan '06 I apparently thought this was a bad idea. I still do. Lying to women is just sad. Subconsciously, it has to be bad for your self-esteem. And you are going to get some trashy morons. Plus, if you meet them under the pretense of a lie, why should you not expect the same from her? Don't believe, "It's ok, I'm on the pill," if you hear that one. You might also get one of these chicks just telling you afterward that she is pregnant just to fvck with you, and try to get the money she thinks you have.

Like I said, what a tangled web we weave...

Well seems to me it's easier to lie and say you're rich then to become rich. And if that's what it takes to get any particular guy a really hot girl to meet up and bang you, if that's all you're trying to accomplish then if you can pull it off I think it's just as legitimate as anything else a guy could do at the moment. The big question is how are you going to pull off being welthy when you're not long enough to accomplish your goal.

Colby has had “concurrent relationships” since mid-2004 with more than 15 women

The women are trying to claim sexual battery based, I think, only upon his cheating. I don't know if they are alluding to STDs.

http://www.kinseylaw.com/clientserv2/civillitigationserv/assaultbattery/assaultbattery.html

Under the Civil Code, a person may be civilly liable for the commission of a sexual battery. A person commits a sexual battery if he or she [Civ. Code §1708.5(a)]:

acts with the intent to cause a harmful or offensive contact with an intimate part of another, and a sexually offensive contact with that person directly or indirectly results;
acts with the intent to cause a harmful or offensive contact with another by use of his or her intimate part, and a sexually offensive contact with that person directly or indirectly results; or
acts to cause an imminent apprehension of the conduct described in (1) or (2), and a sexually offensive contact with that person directly or indirectly results.
"Offensive contact" means contact that offends a reasonable sense of personal dignity. [Civ. Code §1708.5(f)] "Intimate part" means the sexual organ, anus, groin, or buttocks of any person, or the breast of a female. [Civ. Code §1708.5(d)]

A person who commits a sexual battery on another is liable to that person for damages, including, but not limited to, general damages, special damages, and punitive damages. [Civ. Code §1708.5(b)] The court may also award equitable relief, including, but not limited to, an injunction, costs, and any other relief the court deems proper. [Civ. Code §1708.5(c)]

I don't think these cases have merit. But he has money, and that's why he's getting sued.

Although I guess he was 'spinning plates,' the guy sounds more AFC than DJ. He met some chick off match and married her within a few months.
