Lets say a dating site asks for $500 upfront where you become a member for 2 years.

It works out to $21 a month and under a dollar a day. Less than a cup of coffee.

I'm assuming upper middle class and above would prefer that?

Thoughts?

What if you guys were upper middle class? And there was no cancellation fee, but you don't get a refund of course.

I don't think this is a terrible deal and in a literal sense I could easily afford it but I don't think right now is the best time for me to just give away $500

I got a side hustle idea and I'm gonna go ahead with it. If it works out it does.

No, but I never felt the need to pay for an online dating site. I've always been an extrovert so never had any issues meeting/hooking up back in my single days.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

For a dating site? The fuck?

Many sites charge a fee. Either monthly or for a year sub.

Some people pay??? I mean some people still pay for porn. There's a market for everything...

Yeah, but you're just 1 person.

What if this site was very niche.

Like dating for gamers? Or dating for stoners? Or dating for small business owners?

I'm sure there would be a market for that, so if that's some business venture you're going for, you could succeed if you know what you're doing.

It's a side hustle I'm doing. The plan is to get women to sign up initially for free and make men pay. This way I have a good female client base on hand. Eventually I'd charge both genders.

Raw deal if you meet someone the first month.

Or people won't want to commit until their two years are nearly up.

It'd be better for casual daters, but if you met someone under a year for long term yah you lose money. But I gain. So I'm happy? But if you found love then money wasn't an issue.

why would you spend $20 more than what 2 years on match would cost for a shitty side hustle?
