any ladies care to elaborate?
Hot sex no match for cold cash, poll of women finds

For love or money; we'll take money.
And that's the final answer to a question about what women say they would rather do when given a choice between saving $50 a week or having more sex.
Sorry, boys. It's the economy.
In fact, eight of nine women asked in Herald Square pined more for money than men.
And it wasn't limited to a specific age group.
Lauren Viteritti, a 19-year-old undergraduate student from Queens explained, "I'm a college student. I'd rather pay off student loans. I need the money more than sex right now."
Kim Bennet, 29, was a little more philosophical - noting it depends on the man.
"The goodness of the tradeoff has to be taken into consideration. It's on a case-by-case basis," she reasoned. "But, in most cases, I would probably go with the $50."
The lone naysayer was a woman who, perhaps smartly, asked that her last name not be published - or picture taken.
"Sex is definitely worth more than $50," said Melanie L., 39, from Murray Hill. "I've been married happily for four years. What's with the money and full pockets? We're not gonna take it with us when we die. I'd rather die a happy woman."
The AllYou/Shortcuts poll also found that the nearly 5,300 women and 600 men surveyed were weathering the economic pinch in different ways, with many reporting cutting coupons for the first time, putting off vacations and dining in.
