Moneymaxxing — also known as wealthmaxxing — is about maximizing one’s desirability/appeal and one’s life circumstances by improving financial means, based on the idea that women will be more attracted by a financially successful man.
In fact, research on the topic suggests that financial success is often viewed as desirable in men, because it implies other attractive traits, auch as ambition, drive, intelligence, competence, confidence, and — last but not least — the ability to provide security and stability.

It’s thought that there are mainly two causes to the above: an evolutionary perspective in which women historically sought mates who could provide resources for them and their offspring to ensure survival, and a more modern perspective where in today’s global economy, financial success is equated with the ability to live comfortably and reduce life stress.
In addition, research also suggests that women are more inclined to overlook traits in men that are considered not so attractive, for instance a man who’s small in height or “ugly,” if he is exceptionally financially successful.
As moneymaxxing typically likewise raises one’s social status and standing, it’s actually also considered a form of statusmaxxing.
Another possible goal of moneymaxxing for men may involve to have enough money to be able to pay expensive looksmaxxing practices (such as plastic surgery), which would make moneymaxxing a supporting practice and not an end by itself.
Moneymaxxing is supported by and can be achieved through, for instance, academiamaxxing, careermaxxing, methmaxxing, and stemmaxxing.
