Money...Power...Sex???

A current discussion thread started me musing about this. One post suggested the guy felt like a 'baller' when he spent Benjis in a club. I know exactly what he meant. Money is a serious motivator for me and I like the power that money lets me project. Then, it all gets tied up with sex. I haven't figured out which of the three is the primal urge. For me, I think that the 'power' part is #1. Money gives power. Power makes sex accessible.
But, I am not 100% sure of this. I just spent a few minutes down in my basement admiring and fondling my stash of gold coins. Be damned if I didn't get a woodie!!
WTF! How pervy is that!

95% of the time money and power go hand in hand. Sex is a totally different animal.
Do A or else B will be to you. (Ie, punishments)
Do A and B will be done for you. (Ie, rewards)
Do A for it is righteous. (Ie, how to get good christian people to kill (abortion) doctors.)
Alucard plays rule three all the time.
In any case, it seems to me that alutard likes "powerless" trips. The process seems to be:
a) provoke fights knowing that he is going to get demolished
b) get demolished (as expected)
c) cry that he is being demolished not due to the fact that he is fuckhead, but because he is suffering for his righteous
d) see c) elicits any sympathy from others, preferable motherly females
I suspects it's something he got away with when young, and became a pattern he repeated throughout his life. Even now when he is pushing 60.
Robert Greene put on a seminar where I work a few years back. In person he definitely looks like a bookish/nerdy type. I was joking afterward that even though he wrote "Art of Seduction" he probably has just an average ability to get laid. Pretty nice guy in person.
But the sentiment be in the "true dat" category. There is a reason Tony Stark gets the chicks. Well, one reason is that he is a fictional character, and shit like that happens in the funny pages and the movies. But the character is a billionaire philanthropist genius and general badass. And chicks dig that shit. O' course, some mostly dig the billionaire part. Kinda make me wanna be a billionaire!
I've had the same thoughts. I'm not in your league but I am somewhat above the annual income level our glorious Preident believes should be paying more taxes. I'm guessing that would make me better capitalized than 49 of 50 men in any given strip club on any given night.
Money doesn't talk in a strip club; it screams! The girls will figure out who has the money by how they spend it. They can also tell how well educated a man might be in 5 minutes over a drink by listening to him talk. That is often a good barometer on how much disposable income they may have. The word will travel. I know I'm rarely sitting alone in a strip club. The moment one girl gets up, another one almost immediately comes by. I know it isn't because I look like Tom Cruise. Probably has more to do with the fact I never walk into a strip club with less than $300 cash in my pocket.
My collection of gold coins is only 7 but I have a MS-65 condition 1909 VBD-S penny that is my pride and joy!
