if someone pays 500 bucks to get a date, then they are getting nothing but gold diggers.

Hookers would be cheaper and easier

i am not sure but a guy i know had a shit profile, paid money to tinder and not only did they fix his profile real good but got him in the slut slot. the girls were way above his league and some worked in adult entertainmemt..like webcam girls and stuff. not sure if thats a good or bad thing really?! so i'd say big data sets from their users and some mild AI stuff can do magic.
