Right, because rich always = smart.

Anyway, James has a point. My understanding of guys (and please guys, correct me if I'm wrong) indicates that if a guy is attracted to a woman and she's reasonably fun and not a pain in the ass, that's what really matters. I can't say I've ever known a guy who gave a crap about stuff like education.

Of course, whether a guy is willing to get into a long-term relationship also depends on timing, but that's a different issue. The potential-relationship woman has to be hot and fun, and then the timing has to be right.

For women, I'm not so sure. On the one hand you have women who are concerned with a man's resume, including education -- maybe because of perceived shared values, intelligence, earning potential, and I'm not sure what else. On the other hand, you have women who are maybe more guy-like in terms of relationships, who want someone who is hot and not a pain in the ass. Obviously, I'm the latter, so I can't explain the former with any accuracy.
