We need a tinder for poor people, those who don't have the economic means to date, but would have their situation bettered by joining forces with one or more like-minded and equally fin-locked partners.

We could call it Prolescroll, PlentyOfRamen, Stumble, econHarmony

Really nice idea in principle but will certainly be exploited by richer ppl

All the richers would troll for poor women.

Not sure why you are getting downvoted that would absolutely be something that happens on an app that advertises as being for poor people. Rich men would join and try and get women too hook up with them for a meal or similar.
