Who is Brandon Wade?
Brandon Wade is an American businessman and online dating entrepreneur.
Wade's controversial websites, which are based around rich men paying for dates and sex with attractive women, have been widely criticized by the media, with Forbes, The Atlantic, ABC news and MSNBC all reporting on the moral ambiguity of the websites Seeking Arrangement and WhatsYourPrice.com. The websites have been accused of treating their female members like prostitutes, with WhatsYourPrice.com being described as "indistinguishable from prostitution".
