Speaking of dating, let's revisit PocketChangeNYC's upcoming speed dating event for "Rich Older Women and Hot Young Men (Sugar Mamas and Boy Toys)." Female participants must be over be over 35 and qualify (with documented proof) on at least one of the following financial criteria: $500k+ salary, $4mm+ liquid assets, $4mm+ entrusted assets, $4mm+ divorce settlement, plus pay a $500 event fee. Males are required to provide five headshots to be judged for beauty, be under 35, and pay a $50 event fee. I told you guys/old ladies to get out there and sign up and represent DB. Some of you did. Good work. For those guys not interested in being subsidized by mom or ladies not looking for a hot younger man to smack around because you make the money and that makes you the boss, your loss. But you can still participate from the sidelines. Apparently there's some sort of voting component that lets anyone, even DealBreaker readers, vote for their favorite SM or BT. Each day we'll be looking at few of the candidates. Yesterday you got a peak at towel boy, and we also asked who you wanted to see next, The Horse Whisperer or Claus von Bülow in-training. 55.6 percent voted for Claus but we're feeling giving today SO YOU GET BOTH. THW is 26 and an investment banker at a tiny bulge bracket. Claus is 34, which we're not sure qualifies him as a "boy toy" but whatevs, and an analyst at "a full service investment bank." He's also very good at staring intently at something to the right of the camera, and coordinated enough to hold a beverage while doing so. POINTS.

Claus von Balding does not = boy toy.

a 34 year old IB analyst? wtf?
im sorry but there's no way that dude could possibly qualify as a boy toy right?
Posted by AJ , Jan 16, 2008 4:04PM
Nothing's worse than an IB associate that's 30+... I can't even imagine how much a 34 year old analyst would suck...
Posted by NSD , Jan 16, 2008 4:05PM
Claus looks like what Spaulding Smails would have grown into.
Posted by wtf , Jan 16, 2008 4:08PM
with the mini comb over and intentful blank stare Claus reminds me of a donald trump want to be.
the horse whisper may not look like robert redford but if he didn't speak and i closed my eyes, i could get thier.

Double Farts!
Posted by GAnalYst , Jan 16, 2008 4:24PM
He's certainly no Tanner, but THW could work, in a wiry kind of way. I'm guessing he might be a little hairy, which is also hot. Can we possibly get one of him sitting on the horse, bareassed? With hands strategically placed, holding the reins.

I choose to vote for freedom. I choose Ron Paul
Posted by mrpink , Jan 16, 2008 4:28PM

So far, Towel Boy is running away with this thing.

bearforce1...claus could join that
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 4:30PM
Put Bess hands on Tanner!!!
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 4:32PM
WTF did Claus do in his past life to deserve being a 34 yo analyst? Was he Hitler or Ghengis Khan?

Bachelor #2's coat is made out of bachelor #1's horse. I'm almost positive.
I double down on MrPinks crab hands nomination.
Posted by Anal_yst , Jan 16, 2008 4:46PM
"Anal_yst" @ 4:30 is a FRAUD.
Bess/Carney can someone slimjim that post please. Although, bearforce1 is hilarious, that post did not come from me.
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 4:51PM
I would rather vote for Ron Paul
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 4:56PM
Claus has to be a pedophile and/or slimjim
Posted by slimjim , Jan 16, 2008 4:58PM
@4:56 please keep your pants on while looking at these pics.
Posted by clmgd30 , Jan 16, 2008 4:59PM

@ A Non - gracias amigo/a.
I recently quit my job so I have plenty of time to work on my commenting skills.

THW is an IB at "a tiny bulge bracket". What's that mean? You're either BB or not, and none of them are tiny.
Posted by Jimmy the Joint , Jan 16, 2008 5:13PM
Bear Stearns - they like dem country boys... especially on the 4th floor.
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 5:16PM
"tiny bulge bracket" seems like it was a joke, moron.
Posted by L. Craig , Jan 16, 2008 5:18PM
Anyone want to dock in the men's room at Bear?
Posted by John Amaechi , Jan 16, 2008 5:20PM
I'm in
Posted by anon 5:16 - you're the moron , Jan 16, 2008 5:21PM
Moron here... Thought about that but don't think so based on a careful reading. That's a very clear sentence, no way a double entendre.
Posted by Paul Ron , Jan 16, 2008 5:24PM
Ron Paul represents everything that is holy and good.
Posted by rahodeb , Jan 16, 2008 5:26PM
The whole Ron Paul thing got old like 2 months ago. Can we get over it?
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 5:27PM
Ron Paul will not let the terrorists or minorities win

Anyone have any color on the Citi cuts today?
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 6:07PM
shouldn't it be a bunch of artists, models, and grad students that are signing up for the "boy toy" gig? they should have a cap on these guys' salaries in addition to a lower age cap. the way it's working out, you'll just end up with a bunch of 35 year-old bankers in a room.
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 6:12PM
saying "color" instead of "details" = listening to way too many earnings calls. get a job and never say that again.
Posted by HAM'05 , Jan 16, 2008 6:15PM
is that tux crushed velvet?
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 6:51PM
@6:07 - WTF are you talking about? Dating a cougar/sugarmama is the exit opportunity bankers have wet dreams about.
Posted by i love wasps , Jan 16, 2008 8:46PM
give me velvet blazers or give me death
Posted by , Jan 16, 2008 10:19PM
@ 6:12 i dont see what he did wrong
traders use 'color' all the time

Analyst likely = research analyst. 30's+ not uncommon.
Posted by Research , Jan 17, 2008 10:56AM
Analyst at the age of 34 is a give away that he is a
Equity Research Analyst (stock analyst if u like).
Posted by , Jan 17, 2008 11:00AM
Maybe he covers pharma or personal products and this is a sneaky way of getting insights on older women.
Posted by , Jan 17, 2008 11:04AM
@8:46 WASPs don't wear velvet blazers. While we're at it, nothing with a Polo or Hilfiger logo on it either. All are examples of pseudo-WASP attire. You have a lot to learn son.
