Eliezer! He has it! YOU NEED BABES! Yes! Lots of babes to get you money! To save the world! Why haven’t you done this yet??? And you call yourself a rationalist...
I’m joking, though, in all honesty, there is some truth to this, though it is a risky business- I did go to a party for a friend to flirt his investors (who were technical and liked smart women) into being more comfortable… Don’t know if I got him any more money that night, but it probably made him look good.
