Spring is in the air and so is the bees and birds?

In about a week, Spring will be here. For some, this is a time for a new start. The beginning of something beautiful much like flowers ready to bloom. Specially, it's time for a relationship be it just a fling or for love.

As with most things in life, good things come when it's least expected. It's all about timing. Good luck is really just good timing if you ask me. Check out model Camila Alves. Here's a nice story about how she went from maid to wife of Matthew McConaughey. With good timing, this is quit the Cinderella story. Good for them.

Millionaire matchmaking in China

Here's a nice niche market in China. From the NYTimes:

"“This is a good place to hunt,” she told me. “I always have good luck here.”
For Ms. Yang, Joy City is not so much a consumer mecca as an urban Serengeti that she prowls for potential wives for some of China’s richest bachelors. Ms. Yang, 28, is one of China’s premier love hunters, a new breed of matchmaker that has proliferated in the country’s economic boom. The company she works for, Diamond Love and Marriage, caters to China’s nouveaux riches: men, and occasionally women, willing to pay tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars to outsource the search for their ideal spouse."

Apparently, there are matchmakers making a good living filling in this gap. Welcome to the millionaire marketplace.
