Basic shallowness & a need for an ego boost.  BINGO!  Although there is some evoluntionary biology as they would like a "healthy" young specimen with big boobs to have & nurse his babies, even if he has no intention of having any.   And would the current Mrs. Trump be married to The Donald if he wasn't a billionaire (or at least multi-millionaire?)  NOT a chance IMO.

I don't know.  Every couple and situation is different.  It is true some Men and Women are Gold Diggers.  .....It could be things they have in common.  Maybe Donald Trump's new wife loved his show.....?  Maybe they both loved boating?  I don't know..... Sometimes I think people RUN from the #$%^& they put up with in previous relationships.  If someone was a screamer they detect that and RUN cuz their ex was.  If their ex was Controlling they sense that and run.  It could be a clean house verses a Compulsive cleaner to a messy house and what they had and they don't want again.  It's alot of reasons.  I don't know them.  I don't know their stories until I hear it so who am I to judge.  I can only look at my situation and view life thru my own perceptions.....  Honestly second time around I am probably going to look for someone a little bit younger because I think I would be too hyper for someone older and would make their pace maker go off and give them a heart attack because of all the energy but that is just me........

As far as interesting conversations, I imagine it's a heck of a lot more interesting to hear 'I am SOOOOOO..or "I was like...." than it would be to hear "I hate men" and "I loathe men" and "I detest men" and "Men suck", as I imagine most of your conversations would go. Far better to listen to someone wax poetic about the reasons Jessica Simpson is better than Ashley Simpson than to listen to someone telling you how much, and why, they hate you and your entire gender. 

  

As for "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!!!", it's not just the purview of younger women. If Billy Joel and Donald Trump were flat broke, "these young girls" wouldn't have married them, but then neither would older women. 

  

You ascribe men's attraction to younger women to "basic shallowness, a need for an ego boost and arm candy". How about admitting that, in general, younger women are physically more attractive than older women? And before you scream "No, they aren't!", compare a photo of Betty White to one of Jennifer Aniston. 

  

And one final note to all women out there who think they know how or what men think: you're wrong. To put it succinctly, men don't understand women, and women don't understand men. Deal with it and stop insulting us.
