take it from someone who has dated guys of various salaries. Its not how much he makes, its how he spends it. one of the wealthiest guys I dated was one of the stingiest, paid for one date and thought I should practically kiss his feet for an eternity because of it. then I dated a guy who made roughly £18k but as his parents were well off and never asked for rent he was able to keep all of it and spent a lot taking me on holiday and bought me a designer bag once. women like being spoilt from time to time, so long as you make enough to be able to take her out and about and buy the nice earrings she wanted for her birthday or pay the bills and provide for their children after marriage thats all that matters. Its not how much you make, its how you spend.
