        I wasn’t saying it’s like that for everyone but rather in a generalized way being wealthy seems to be a factor in making someone seem more attractive.

      There was this study where they asked a theater full of women to rate the attractiveness of men, based on a photo and a profession. Then they changed all the professions (but kept the same photos) and did it again.

      The same picture with a higher-paying job was rated significantly higher.

        Wealth and social status and what those can provide are just attractive features to people.
