The profile also says I have no TV, no fridge, no washing machine, no microwave (which is true) so “more money than I know what to do with” becomes frighteningly ambiguous :-)
Haha, fair. Although my assumption based on the lack of fridge would be “this person does not cook for himself, or else does not use perishable ingredients” which isn’t very flattering either. ;)
The weather in Moscow right now is only slightly above freezing, so I keep some perishable products on the balcony. And in summer I sleep there, on some rugs.
Even if you didn’t say that, on reading “I make more money than I know what to do with” in a profile with the income field in the sidebar blank would make me think they’re very frugal, rather than that they make lots of money (possibly because I’m Generalizing From One Example!).
Yeah … that sentence seems to conflict with your goal of not encouraging golddiggers. :P
