Well it's pretty simple, I suppose. It's an online dating service. First, it screens out those with a HORRIFIC credit report. If you pass the credit test, (very simple to do online)..... then you may go on to take the a lie detector test. You can report to local areas (maybe a post office) to take
your test. If you didn't match up, this could spawn a whole new area of internet dating... you get along well with liars and those that will never be financially stable. Everyone must have a match somewhere..

How about matching this idea with [business: matchmaking]? |
|
|
but not very specific.... |

Hi baker, sorry your online dating has been so unfortunate :( Maybe you could call this "Invasive online dating". |
|
|
I had this idea quite a bit ago, but thanks, phundug. Maybe another category... Dating of for those that have nothing to hide. lol. |

What lie is the lie detector supposed to detect? I'm afraid you're ascribing magic properties to this test that it doesn't quite have. |
|

I've seen dating sites for the beautiful and the intelligent. I can't see why a dating site for people with good credit rating shouldn't catch on, perhaps financed by the three credit report agencies (for whom I'd like to reserve a very special circle of hell, but I digress.) |
|

I think I made this too simple. A GOOD credit report does not mean you are rich. It means you are responsible. If you pass that, then, you would take a test that says you are not a liar. My head hurts now... LOL |

Shouldn't it also do a background check? I once talked with a woman about her experience with dating services, and she said she had had a number of wonderful evenings with men who turned out to be ex-cons and/or have serious financial issues. |

Single parents would likely be very excited to know that the person they were thinking of dating was not a pedophile, and all applicants would probably be glad to learn that their intended had no prior convictions on spousal abuse, drug use, etc. |

|
Not to say that convicts don't deserve a chance, but these sort of things would best be mentioned before an actual meeting. |
|
|
Besides, If a foreign bride bought from another country gets this sort of info (Linky), shouldn't the average citizen deserve equal protection under law? |
|
|
don't eliminate the people with bad credit... You are missing the big picture. |
