The site was founded in 2006 by Brandon Wade, a self-professed nerd who didn't receive his first kiss until he was a 21-year-old MIT student. Wade, pictured at right with his wife Tatiana, has since created a small dating-website empire that he says is a more honest approach to what people really want from relationships.
On the website, a sugar daddy is described as "a successful and generous man who is willing to pamper and offer financial help or gifts to a young person in return for friendship and companionship," while a sugar baby is "an attractive, ambitious and goal oriented individual who has a lot to offer."
