Once you have a ton of money how do you separate true love from people who just want to be around you for your money? Look at the personal lives of billionaires. These are highly dysfunctional people.
True love won't solve life's problems either, lol. Dysfunctional people will dysfunction. I say money, so that you can afford therapy.
I mean, I wasn't thinking billionaire level of money. But even if I was, you don't have to disclose you're a billionaire when going on a date.
I feel like professional match makers would be the best way. You get the personalized touch of a real person, and have an intermediary if things go bad.
Depends on the provider. As with all things, some people are just phoning it in, while other people are passionate about their work and want outcomes that reflect well on their abilities.
If you ever find yourself in a situation where you've got more money than you really know what to do with, just remember: keep your personal and business finances completely separate, make sure that your financial advisor is a fee-based fiduciary (unless you know what you're getting into), and interview people while remembering that their active employment is an ongoing interview. You can drop a consultant or advisor any time, so don't feel like you owe them loyalty if they aren't delivering what you need.
