Sure, if you're a genius or have some sort of skill in very high demand (most people don't), you'll make plenty of money even if you're a loner, but in most cases, making great money, finding excellent job opportunities, or starting a successful business comes down to connections and networking. Someone who's a loner is going to have problems networking and with forming strong connections with people and this often results in not having access to high paying jobs even if capable.
In terms of having no friends, most loners are loners because their people skills are really bad, so why would someone with bad people skills have many friends? Virtually all of the loners I know have very few friends.
Revelation of this thread:
People who enjoy spending their time alone, tend to have less friends than those who enjoy spending their time with others..
Shall we propose a grant to find out why this is?
Next can we find out why -
People without cars tend to drive themselves to work less often than people with cars?
Or why more homeless people tend to sleep on the street than people with homes?
Women are often attracted to power in men (with money linked to power). Power and money is often attained by control/influence of others. Thus, a "loner" who does not relate well to (influence) people, may be seen as a weaker male which may be an unattractive trait for many females.
What do women think of men that like to be on there own and do their own thing?
Would you even date or start a relationship with someone who doesn't have any close friends?
Would you date a "new guy" in town, that is a loner but also wants to meet some people?
How much importance do women put on a man's social surroundings?
I'm basically a loner and married one so it works out great for us the answer is yes to all above questions except the last one. The social surrooundings depends on what surroundings you are talking about specifically. If it is a bar consistantly I would not be there but I don't do bars/clubs unless I am shooting darts.

You're operating under the assumption that loners are people with bad social skills.
Nope.
That's like me saying all social people are like the girls on Girls Gone Wild, or the guys who manipulate them.
Being confident, knowing how to charm and be personable, knowing how to look people in the eyes, aren't exclusive to guys who must call up their guy friends every weekend to see what they're doing.
I work in a field defined by social interaction, I've had the "loner" talk with coworkers before and you'd be surprised how many there actually are.
Don't confuse lack of desire with lack of ability.

Exactly, and you also don't have to be an introvert to be a loner. I like being alone, and doing things by myself, but that doesn't mean that I don't meet people every time I go out. Sure, when I travel to other countries I do it alone, but I meet a lot of people along the way. I go out to dinner alone quite often, sit at the bar and usually always end up striking conversations with new people and getting to know people.
I do however think my personality could be a red flag, not necessarily because it screams socially awkward or that I don't have "power", but that if it is so easy for a person like that to move on and go from place to place alone.. maybe that person isn't best suited for a relationship. I doubt anyone who meets me would think that about me, but it is probably true haha.
I prefer to be in my own world most of the time. It's far less toxic than the world outside.
