A 30+ career-oriented woman interested in marriage and children is the antithesis of who I'm trying to attract :)

A hooker would be cheaper, frankly.

I don't think they would be.

Stupid crap to keep up with the Joneses is running me $1000 a month whereas a hooker is what, $200 an hour plus risk of jail time and disease?

Plus there is some inherent value in a nice place and a nice car besides showing off :)
