A friend at work stumbled across this and I had to share. Tells you how bad/expensive the American dating scene is now that you would have to pay for even the wingman!!![/url]

Yeah this shows just had bad the dating scene has become!
I can see hiring a "Wingman" to help you get a woman actually catching on and being a money maker, as there is demand. The thing is, that these muppets who will use this service will still be getting the same type of AW, clearly not a prize worth having!

I see many parallels between America's job market and dating market. Here are some:
American male needs to hire wingmen to get a remote chance of meeting American women = sh**y dating market.
American job seeker needs to complete unpaid internships to get a remote chance to be invited to a job interview = crappy job market.

+1 to all posts.
I would pay ten times the amount to get me an evening with the right princess.
But go out of my way for a hardened, sarcastic AW? Hah!

They also have "wingwomen" as well. You hire a wingwoman to go out with you for 2 to 3 hours or more (usually it's $50 an hour) and she introduces you to woman you are interesed in meeting at bars, clubs, wedding receptions, etc.
Here are some websites for Wingwomen.

God's busy right now, so I'll 
posit an answer.
If enough schmucks think something is worth paying money for, someone will come along and figure out how to sell it to them.
