The internet was bitterly divided after a podcast guest claimed that men who make less than $50,000 a year shouldn’t date.

Atlanta’s Talitha Troupe appeared on a recent episode of the podcast “Pour Minds” along with co-hosts Andrea and Rex P., who did not give their last names.

The dating strategist was discussing her own standards for courtship before making the bombshell about salary rules.

A heated debate erupted in the comments section, with one person calling Talitha’s views “sad and problematic on so many levels.”

During the exchange, Talitha boldly claimed: “If you make $50,000, don’t date. I’m just telling the truth. I’m not ready to date because courting is expensive. Everything costs money.” That’s it.”

And it looked as if the hosts agreed too: “I’m with you, you’re right.”

Talisa continued, “You can take 22 walks in the park. Eventually, Shorty will have to take a sip of something. She’ll get thirsty.”

When a guest claimed, “This bottle of water costs $3 in Atlanta,” the co-hosts burst into laughter. Let’s stop playing.

“So if you don’t have disposable cash, don’t date… Your income may only be $50,000, but you’ve been living in shoes, and now you have disposable cash.” I got the cash.”

She continued: “Or get some woman who’s a dick and won’t go on a date when she can’t afford it.”

“If she doesn’t have expectations and I’m going to tell you this now, enjoy it while it lasts, because eventually you’ll want to run too because she won’t stretch you. is.”

“She doesn’t make you the man you’re meant to be. She lets you be the man who wears the same jeans for days on end and stays stagnant, you know what I mean?” Do you have it?

The clip was uploaded to the podcast’s official Instagram page with the caption: “This is going to ruffle feathers.”

Thousands of comments immediately poured in from viewers, with a variety of reactions.

On the other hand, many I didn’t agree with Talitha.

“When we first started dating, I was dating a man who made $45,000 a year,” one person wrote. With our drive and my support as his partner, he was making his $100,000 after one year and $300,000 after three years.

“By the fifth year, he was clearing $1 million. To be clear, I’m far from rock bottom, but hmm, I keep passing up good men based on my current income situation.” Yes, everyone has to start somewhere.

Another said, “When I first started, I was penniless for years and my then-girlfriend, now wife, paid for everything. I just had dreams and ambitions.

“She helped me start my first company, which has since become a company with multiple companies. My average business makes $1 million a year, but my Top businesses earn millions of dollars some days.

“If you believe in your man, don’t lose your soulmate for money.”

A third person wrote: “$50,000 is regular and normal for a normal person.” Not everyone wants a Chanel bag.

Another said: “These women are dating men who actually have jobs and make money, yet they’re telling us they judge his worth by $50,000. “Most people don’t have $1,000 saved up for emergencies,” he added.

“That boldness is real. What happened to connecting with people in their personality traits and the way they treat people? This conversation is exhausting.”

Another commenter added, “This is the worst advice I’ve ever heard!” You don’t make as much money as everyone thinks you make.

“It’s crazy to humiliate another woman in another man’s pocket. It’s OK if you can make 500,000 yen. [There’s] Someone is here for everyone.

“Why is it a woman at the bottom? What if she sees potential and he’s actually trying to get better financially?”

However, on the other hand, there were still some believers who agreed with Talisa’s opinion.

One said, “I’m not lying. Men shouldn’t date unless they have some level of financial stability, especially in this day and age. The truth is the truth.”

Another commenter wrote: Please collect the money.
