Hello, to the men out there, if you had to choose a girlfriend or wife from one of the three most affluent social groups, middle class, upper middle class, and rich, which in order would you prefer that she be of the the three groups above. My preference in order is Upper middle, middle class, and rich.

I would greatly be interested in your opinions.

Thanks very much

Sorry but your proposition has little bearing with reality.. who would ever be in a situation to or just choose based on that alone? If I was forced right now by God to CHOOSE!!! I would say RICH of course!!

LOL, in your world everyone would walk around with a sticker that says, "Hi, I'm Rich" or "Hi, I'm poor" or last but not least, "Hi, I'm middle class" LOL
I mean you can't possibly pick or even know these things before first getting to know a person so initially you are going to be attracted by looks then personality or vice versa.. but to pose a question like that jus isn't realistic.

I would probably go with middle class. Lots of life lessons can be learned in the middle class where it's common to have times of plenty and times of lacking, times of victory and time of struggle. But, there is value in having some struggles in life. Relationships can draw closer in difficult times, which makes the times of comfort and abundance that much more sweet that we can appreciate. Faith and dependence on God also grows during these times.

Strong faith and work ethic can also be a learned trait of those from the middle who have to largely earn what they have. In contrast, I've seen those from rich families have most everything given to them with no effort on their part, resulting in them not having learned to respect those who do have to work harder for things.

That's my opinion as a fellow middle class-er. I'm sure other opinions will vary.

Given the way the economy is going it will soon only be rich and poor. Middle class will be a thing of the past unfortunately.

Makes no difference to me, I'll be making enough on my own to not have to worry about what their money is, I only worry if someone is pretentious or not and that comes in all classes.. Typically I hang out with middle class, its how I grew up and who I associate myself with .
