"  Though they&amp;#039;re not always of Anna Nicole/J. Howard Marshall proportions, the Sugar Daddy/Baby dynamic has been around as long as some young girls have been broke and some old dudes have been rich. As my mom used to tell me at bedtime when I was a little girl: &amp;quot;No amount of money is worth being bounced on a decrepit old dude&amp;#039;s arthritic knee.&amp;quot; (OK, she definitely never told me that. But I&amp;#039;m sure she wanted to.) The tradition of math nerds using their skills to figure out their chances of getting laid by a hot girl is a long, proud one as well: John Nash famously came up with game theory as a Princeton undergrad trying to figure out how to guarantee that him and all his buddies score with girls at a bar. Now a website called SugarDaddie.com, which, as you can probably guess, sells rock candy and miniature dalmatians (JK! It&amp;#039;s for sugar daddies), has come up with a calculation inspired by Hugh Hefner&amp;#039;s 86th birthday. It&amp;#039;s derived from the popular equation developed to determine the acceptable age range of the male dating demographic: &amp;quot;1/2 your age plus seven.&amp;quot; Or: (fa) = 1/2(ma) + 7. While this applies to us Muggles, men like Hefner, Donald Trump and Larry King don&amp;#039;t have to follow this to a T; if they did, Hef would be wedded to 50+ woman rather than the  sexually-dissatisfied 26-year-old Crystal Harris. With this in mind, the guys at Sugar Daddie developled an equation called the Hefnerian Corollary. Using Harris&amp;#039;s age, his age and his net worth in a calculation, they determined that Hefner gets a &amp;quot;discount&amp;quot; of 24 years because he has $43M; in other words, Men get a &amp;quot;discount&amp;quot; of 1.79 years (off the woman&amp;#039;s age) for every $1M of net worth. In other words, they&amp;#039;ve got a lot of fish in the sea. And they&amp;#039;re gonna f*ck the sh*t out of those fish. The Sugar Daddie team plans to incorporate this calculator on behalf of their wealthy members, generating their own age range for potential sugar babies based on their individual net worth. Gross. I mean, awesome. Incidentally, today the infamous Sugar Daddy website Seeking Arrangement reports that their number of new sign-ups by &amp;quot;sugar daddies&amp;quot; has increased a whopping 71 percent over the last year. They also rank the ratio of sugar daddies to normal adult men. All the usual suspects you&amp;#039;d expect are on the list, led by Atlanta, Scottsdale and San Francisco (5.98, 5.23 and 4.94 percent respectively). New York, Los Angeles, Orlando, Seattle, Austin, New Orleans, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston and (surprise!) Portland also rank in the top 20. Additionally, modern sugar daddies in New York City are a (relatively young) 42 years old and make approximately $524,127 annually. These men spend $5692 per month on their Sugar Babies, compared to $4991 per month spent in 2012.
