Can a 52 year old woman date a 26 year old man and actually have a fulfilling relationship? How would I know if he really likes me?
–Sheryl
The Harvard MBA says:
Love takes many forms; who am I to criticize any working relationship between two consenting adults? After all, I covered the first annual Cougar Convention as […]

Where and how in the hell do I meet a great, educated and successful man– who is normal too? Me: Lawyer, successful, busy, and yes, beautiful.
P.S. No platitudes. Answer as though this were your semester final exam; introduction, supporting points with examples. You will be graded.

What job gets you laid the most?
–Edward
The Harvard MBA says:
There are a number of careers that seem particularly suited to providing men with ample opportunities for sex. Just off the top of my head, these include professional athlete, rock star, movie star, billionaire, fireman, pimp, and U.S. Senator.
However, these answers aren’t that useful, because most […]
My fiance who is 24 recently got accepted and will be attending HBS. I myself am 24 and was curious how big of a role I will play, i.e. drinking with her section and so on, and what to expect as a male partner? I will also be attending an MBA program in Boston at […]
Hi Mr. Harvard MBA, love your blog. Sorry for a slightly longer question, but this is about my college/life and is both important to me and also utterly confused me as to what to do. Basically, I go to a pretty good University. Actually, one of the best in my country. I’m doing Computer Science […]
My question has nothing to do with money. Instead, it’s about race. I noticed that you are Chinese-American and your wife is Caucasian. Lately, I’ve been hearing children of mixed race marriages refer to themselves as “mutts.” Now, I’m not trying to get into a rant about racism or engage in a long, windy discussion […]
I am interested in your analysis of the older women/younger man trend. Let’s hear your authoritative point of view.
–Karin
The Harvard MBA says:
A question near and dear to my heart! I’ve always preferred older women (some would argue that circumstances made this inevitable; I went to college at 15, so going for younger women would probably […]
“Why do Asian women prefer white men? Seriously… why?”
The Harvard MBA says:
Ah yes, this is an oft-observed but seldom-analyzed phenomenon! The key is to focus on a market-driven analysis. The inevitable conclusion is that Asian women prefer white men because white men prefer Asian women.
The concept of market segmentation is both basic and powerful. Businesses […]
“I was recently accepted to HBS. Is there anything that you know now that you wish some one had told you before you started?”
The Harvard MBA says:
First of all, congratulations. In tough times, it becomes even harder to get into HBS. It also takes a strong constitution to ignore the (largely undeserved) flogging that our […]
I’m 34, a single woman and looking for a partner. I don’t know where to start. I have been so busy finding a career and getting hooked up too an ex-boyfriend that I have missed the best years of my youth. Now I am ready to settle down and get married. I want children. Right […]
