Yep that' my feeling too. If a chick finds herself to be with one dude but meets someone who's qualities are the same but his clout is bigger will she hop on this other dude lap?
On the other hand there are those broke dudes who got their own harem, so might it be that jerk/badboy keep them more than clout?
It really depends, it's kind of one giant jigsaw puzzle... her beliefs due to how she was raised, ie family values, guilt, etc.. More desperate girls will forgoe clout just to have someone for the moment cause they're loney (Enviromental factors / Marquee value if they're older). On the other hand, if there's a girl with self-esteem issues or really values "badboy" traits but he's broke they will pick him over a more conservative guy that's very wealthy, maybe even spend the conservative guys money ON the badboy.
There's so much at play.
