Tinder thinks some people will pay almost $500 a month for more ‘efficient ways to find connections’ with its ‘VIP’ plan::Tinder Select is only available to some of the dating app’s “highly engaged and active” users, and it’ll cost about $6,000 a year, Bloomberg reported.

    Honestly like no amount of money will change the results if your dating profile is shit.

    If you’re a whale willing to spend 500 on tinder, spend it on marketing yourself. New photos, personal trainer, hobbies and seriously important - new clothes that fit you.

    Lot of single people I meet always say “I don’t want to change who I am”. Changing the way you look and feel isn’t changing who you are. Unless you’re actually as shallow as your outfit. It’s not lame to see what the trends are and even ask a salesperson of the opposite sex for advice. Putting yourself out there is all aspects of such.

    Present your best self. Because that’s all a person swiping can judge you on. That 5 seconds.

        I’m only moderately classy, but I’ll do it for $400. I’m really good at pretending to be interested in stuff I don’t care about, so they can talk about whatever weirdness they got going on that makes them willing to pay $500 a month for fuckin tinder. What a steal!

        What do you think this is? Tinder will pay $150 for a girl to go on a couple dates and pocket the $350. The “enhanced profile” will have a near 100% success rate, if success is defined as a date with a girl who’s only interested in money.

        They’ve probably already workshopped a name for the “content creators”.

        That honestly makes me kind of sad. Not even specifically the escorting part but just like… that seems like a small amount of money for that on the escort’s end. Like for example, I am pretty sure there are OF girls who sell nudes for that much lol

      It shows that you have $500 to throw in the garbage. That would interest a lot of people.

      I just want to show them my butthole. But now I have to tell all my neighbors I like to show people my butthole and no one seems interested when I tell them.
