By launch, Nelson hopes to register over 20,000 general subscribers between the ages of 23 and 45 with a minimum
income of $40,000. "We intend to keep our subscription fees high enough to help insure that only our targeted market can afford to use our service," she promises. "Furthermore, the content on BlackTieMen.com will be narrowly focused on the social, political and economic interests of Black professionals."

but from her rationale... she thinks that if a woman can afford to subscibe to this service she isn't minimum wage with a rack of kids. The article isn't that clear but i'm assuming that the men are stored in the database for free and women pay for the info (or to be hooked up). I think the $40k minimum salary is for the woman... is that right? Regardless, it's a pretty good business concept.
But.. there's a big assumption that only college educated are successful/professional which is bogus.
