Typically a MALE OR FEMALE that only gets into relationships with others for material things, not love. Most of the time, this person will want to marry the other person as soon as possible. They will also try to make them spend their spouse's money on clothing, jewelry and other material things. A lot of men and women marry celebrities for the money. A lot of old rich men (most of the time Caucasian) marry young and selfish women.
Wife: Girl, I knew that marrying him was the right choice. That old fart doesn't the real reason I married him.
Girl: Does he take you shopping?
Wife: You know it. Yeah, so you want to help me kill him?
Girl: If I can take half of the money? You know, because we are fellow gold diggers?
Wife: Yeah, sure.

Kind of like a hooker, but smarter.
That girl exchanges her time and affection just like a hooker, but she's a little smarter and official so she's more of a gold digger.

A generally attractive person who seeks out relationships with sugar mommas or sugar daddy for monetary gain. A gold digger can be a female or male. It is often a mutually opportunistic relationship: the rich person gets sex or companionship and the GD gets money.

A song by Kanye West featuring Jamie Foxx.
My friend Jessica is a total gold digger. She's sleeping with this middle aged executive and he buys he pays all her bills. She might as well be a street walker.

Jesssica: Did you see the video for gold digger?
Me: Yeah. I want that cute bra and tanga that the pretty video girl at the very end was wearing.
Jessica: Hmm. I wonder where they got it from.

A gold digger is basically a female who admires successful men as opposed to mediocre and unaccomplished men. She lives by the code "lack of money can't buy love and happiness" She is the exact opposite of a "ditch digger" (a female who chases poor males). Then there is the "silver digger" who chases middle-class males probably because she feels she can't compete on a higher level with the caliber of females who score accomplished men. Self esteem problem.

While some gold diggers are males... they are overwhelmingly females since older wealthy women can't birth children which is a major stumbling block and deterrent to male gold digging.

Plus gold digging doesn't work as well for males since males don't have the power to seduce that females have. All a female has to do to become rich is poke a lonely rich man in the belly and her bills are paid.
If a male pokes a rich woman in the belly out of the blue... there is a chance he is going to prison for being a creepy sexually assaulting pervert. Its dangerous for males to gold dig for the same reason its dangerous for males to flirt in the work place.
Females are "predator paraonoid". That is why most gold diggers are not males. In order for males to gold dig they must be "creepy predators:" first.

"Hahhaah look at successful nerd who worked hard with his life. He is now rich and successful and his trophy wife is nothing but a GOLD DIGGER! hahaha"-Jock and his trailer trash wife.
