I just looked at reviews of online dating sites. Specifically for Russian women looking to marry western men.
Many paid ads on Google. Then looked for reviews of several sites. LOLOLOL - Some excellent sites that detail the many scams.

As someone who has worked/lived in Russia. Can say even on Aircraft Russian women will come on over and say hello and many are honest enough to say how much they want out of Russian and are looking to get married. Memories of one very attractive Russian gal who owned her own business and we were on are way to South Korea from Russia. Given I was in a relationship and told her that she understood but insisted on doing lunch/dinner just to be friends. Did have a neighbor a few years ago - Air traffic controller who used an online site and imported a gal who he married.

Apparently his old company was auctioned off in bankruptcy. Probably just had to buy a plane ticket for her, maybe a water buffalo for the family or something. I have a notion to email him about his failures in life and perhaps suggest the $20 suicide thread.

I will add - the neighbor who married a Russian gal via on line look up - The service cost was minimal nor did he ever need to send money to the gal. Very cute young blonde - University education except she left just short of completion and transferred to USD where she graduated. At most it cost him the one way ticket for her from Russian to USA -

Handsome, wealthy, and putting in a lot of effort but it never worked out. This is just more evidence that the answer is getting a passport.

I've never met a woman who was nice and looking for a serious relationship, it's all self-entitled misandrists who are more influenced by what other women say than romantic desire or any biological imperative. Even looking at other men my age (gen z), it's all the same, even for the people dealt a good hand. The only exceptions are top 10% chads or people from strict religious communities-- and I can still see the problems they have when I'm around long enough.
