Would you rather be born attractive but very very very poor or wealthy but unattractive?

Wealthy, but unattractive. I would be too busy doing fun rich people things to be lonely.

Easily. I would take poor. Attractive people can move up a lot easier. Especially, if I could keep the same brain.

I'll take the money thanks

seems like either has the potential for you to gain both; use your good looks to get rich, use your riches to get good-looking.

given that, i'll take attractive but poor. i don't mind hard work and i prefer putting minimal work into my appearance. plus, higher chance for cute kids. perfect.

Same brain?

Wealthy but unattractive. It's not like you'd never have sex, and if you had a decent personality a woman might even fall in love with you. If you're very very very poor but attractive, you might not even live until you're old enough to capitalize on that attractiveness.

Probably attractive but poor. Having life handed to you on a silver VISA isn't very fun. Plus, there's something about being poor that is very "down to earth," and I'd imagine that if I was born rich, I wouldn't know or want to know much about the "down to earth" side of life (cough cough Donald Trump cough cough).

Having grown up attractive and poor, I'd probably take the latter in a do-over. Possibly a "grass is always greener" scenario for me, though.

First world poor? Attractive and poor

Third world dying of cholera poor? Rich and unattractive

Wealthy but unattractive. I was born as such and wouldn't trade it for anything.

Ugly and rich all the way. I grew up ugly and poor haha, with enough money you can live a lifestyle that will improve your looks, and what you can't fix with a super healthy diet and a personal trainer you can get with plastic surgery. When you're poor and your parents feed you fast food and live in a crappy neighborhood that you can't go outside and get exercise in, you'll only turn out so attractive anyway.

writingtoc · 2017-09-30T04:33:17+00:00

Wealthy and fug.

autoflowergal · 2017-09-30T13:09:06+00:00

If you're a wealthy man you can get a cook, personal trainer, plastic surgery AND travel around to places where the most beautiful women on earth congregate to meet rich men.

If you're good looking and poor you marry a cute Denny's waitress who has 2 kids and gets fat

I'll take poor - becoming wealthy is cool, but being born into wealth is not really good. My family technically wasn't even wealthy, but I think I still picked up some negative personality traits due to this - I never needed to work hard in my life and it definitely shows, plus I realize I take many things for granted.

[deleted] · 2017-09-30T04:57:55+00:00

I would rather be born as an attractive white woman from a wealthy family but with the same knowledge I have now.

Easy street for life.

huggabletiger · 2017-09-30T04:58:18+00:00

As someone who's both relatively poor and on the unattractive side, I'd choose wealth. It feels like a kind of tough decision to make since women are more judged by their looks, and being even more unattractive might be a dealbreaker for a lot of people, but after all even with good looks love is not guaranteed. Being wealthy you could spend a lot of time doing whatever the heck you want, distract yourself more easily from BS.

Edit: besides, plastic surgery?

Wealthy. The things that must be done to turn attractiveness into wealth tend to repulse me. To me, Melania Trump's life is clearly a living hell.
