Tinder thinks some people will pay almost $500 a month for more 'efficient ways to find connections' with its 'VIP' plan::Tinder Select is only available to some of the dating app's "highly engaged and active" users, and it'll cost about $6,000 a year, Bloomberg reported.

Honestly like no amount of money will change the results if your dating profile is shit.

If you’re a whale willing to spend 500 on tinder, spend it on marketing yourself. New photos, personal trainer, hobbies and seriously important - new clothes that fit you.

Lot of single people I meet always say “I don’t want to change who I am”. Changing the way you look and feel isn’t changing who you are. Unless you’re actually as shallow as your outfit. It’s not lame to see what the trends are and even ask a salesperson of the opposite sex for advice. Putting yourself out there is all aspects of such.

Present your best self. Because that’s all a person swiping can judge you on. That 5 seconds.

Or just spend the $500 on an escort if you’re that desperate. You can get a pretty classy gal for $500.

I'm only moderately classy, but I'll do it for $400. I'm really good at pretending to be interested in stuff I don't care about, so they can talk about whatever weirdness they got going on that makes them willing to pay $500 a month for fuckin tinder. What a steal!
