The pitfall for women here is that it's easy to appear much wealthier than you actually are. You can own a Z or even more expensive car (and lots of other bling), and be well into debt (negative net worth) and have no real potential for financial growth via professional prospects, especially in the last 10 years with the liberalization of credit. I have known girlies who were impressed by Bubba driving the hot Stang, and now they live with Bubba and Bubbles in the trailer park with the hot Stang, and always will. The nerd who had nothing, did not show off, worked Friday nights washing dishes, never impressed the girls nor had a girlfriend until age 21, went and got an MBA at Stanford and now is a CEO and worth $20 million over a career.
