Hope - the best commodity that you can sell.

It's no wonder Tinder is up there on the Play Store as the second highest grossing app alongside all the online gambling apps. That's because Tinder and all the online dating platforms are exactly designed to mimic gambling.

You can't win if you're not in the game.

The experience is not the same everywhere and in every country. In some countries Tinder has worked for me tremendously.
I created several tinder profiles of men of different ethnicities. As a white person, tinder does wonders. As a brown person, you’re the least desirable.

In Asian countries, white guys are the choosers.

As a brown person I don't agree. I think it comes down to how "handsome" you look. Your color might help but not that much.
Fair enough - having said that, I'm pretty sure you would have done alright with or without Tinder.

The issue is selling hope to incels. That's where the real money's at.
