A self-described "spectacularly beautiful" 25-year old woman is drawing some flack for an ad she placed on Craigslist looking for a man earning at least half-a-million per year because "$250,000 won't get me to Central Park West."

Today's New York Times follows the story of the ad's provenance and the scandal that it has stirred. But being the helpful type, I am going to provide this damsel in distress (assuming it wasn't a prank) with some ideas on how to find the man of her avaricious dreams.

Money's Marlys Harris caused quite a stir a few months back when he published a piece called How to Marry a Billionaire. To infiltrate the world of the super-rich, you must be attractive, classy, cultured and have the right job: rich people, almost by definition, work extremely hard, and frequently meet their future spouses at work.

By making yourself the type of person who will be attractive to a billionaire, you are likely to make yourself the type of person would be attractive to anyone.
