The thing is, that while money isn’t the thing they focus on (mostly), as @Sher_King said, they want stability, and that takes some wherewithal. Which is why men without jobs (as many young men are) are not considered marriageable material. Now a man without a job could have prospects, and those can often stand in the stead of job or money. But a man without a job or prospects is almost universally going to be seen as a loser and not be considered a person of interest.
When you are a man with no job, it’s hard to think any woman would be interested. And yet, given the number of women who do seem to fall for losers, and fall deeply for them, one wonders what they have going for them? Maybe it’s the nothingness of their prospects that makes them romantic, somehow. Or maybe it’s the way they pursue women and make them feel desired.
And that is something I have found very effective on women—they want to be desired. They want to be wanted. Preferably by someone they like or who is a least potentially likable.
