Haha, I used to be like that too; very idealistic in that I used to have a disdain for anyone who emphasizes cash over character.
However, after having been through a marriage, I don't blame any woman who sizes up a man through his finances. I still disapprove of gold-diggers, and I still believe in character, but financial security is far too important for anyone to ignore....
