Billy, the $ is a definitely a factor. At one time I was in a rather low-income congregation but everyone knew I was not only single and a MS but also made a lot of $. Most of the ocngregation had 15 yr old cars whereas mine was within 2 years old. Had single sisters showing up at my house all the time. Many would keep calling on the phone. Age didn't matter to them - I had $ and that's all they cared about. Some were 15 or 18 years older than me, others were 15 or 18 years younger than me. Older sisters would try to match me up with their nieces or other single sisters. I would keep telling them I don't want to get married, I just want to shack up. They would stalk me. I'd be under my car changing the oil on a Saturday afternoon, and they'd drive over, come and peek under the car.
