It's not quite what the OP asked, but let me explain how it went with a guy I dated in college. First off, I grew up poor--dirt poor. When Dad was out of work, we were on food stamps, barely could pay the mortgage on our crappy house sometimes poor. I paid for college all on my own. To this day I have money anxiety, even though I graduated with an engineering degree, made a good salary, etc. Meanwhile, the guy I was dating came from a very, very rich town (highest income per capita in his state). While his parents were well-off, for their town, they were actually in the bottom 10%. This young man would "complain" because his family only took one spring vacation--either Caribbean OR skiing, not both in the same year. And he didn't get a car for his 16th birthday, he had to wait until he was 21. You can imagine how my heart bled for the poor little rich boy!
But, here's what I found interesting--when I visited his town and met his parents and friends, I thought they would all act like rich snobs--you know, like you see on TV. It turned out, they were some of the nicest people you could meet--I was the one with the problem, I felt poor and defensive about my background. They didn't care one bit! I realized I had to work through my own issues, and not project on to others. And I ended up marrying the guy.
On a more relevant note, although I wouldn't care so much about a guy having a lot more (or less, if that would have been possible) than I do, I still have some financial standards. A guy with not much money in the bank would be fine, if he had a life plan, was a hard worker, etc. Similarly, a rich playboy type might be fun to date for a while, but I don't think I could make a life with someone like that. It's a moot point, though, since I'm stuck with the crybaby who whined about not getting a car in HS.
