Gail, you may not like it.  It may not even be Politically Correct.  But
I've seen it happen time & time again.  I have a friend who's a fireman.
He used to drive an old truck and rent a cheesy apartment in Cambridge.
He's meet women but they've be of a certain lower calibur.  He ditched
the truch, got a sports car, bought a place on Cape Cod and started
dressing better.  BAM!   He starts meeting plenty more women who were
considerably classier.  His personality hasn't changed a bit; it was
his attire & possesions that changed everything.  He kept being friendly
and joking, etc. when he met women; the only thing that changed was
he made it a point to weave into the conversation references about his
place in the Cape and his car.  It really was a *world* of difference
for him.  Now he's getting married to a really good woman he met who
also has her own house and a good career, etc.  Yea, he met his share
of gold diggers, but he also got to meet a *lot* of non-gold diggers
because he spruced up his material presence.
