But are you interested in someone that wants this? Is that someone you want to have as a partner?

If no, then there is no point in spending so much.

If yes, there is truly not really another way except spend a bunch.

Putting so much emphasis on money and wealth is a thing very popular in the manosphere and around social media. It isn't that widespread in reality. It also depends on where you meet people. If you meet them at an expensive hobby meeting like golf or something, it's pretty likely that they want someone who is willing to spend money.

Do you know women platonically? Maybe ask them what they want on dates(doesn't mean you have to ask them out, just to get a different perspective), see if that matches what you perceive.
