It's not the most outrageous idea, you know. There are plenty of affluent people who simply adore artists. They see them for who they really are and are able to look past all the bad credit and unpaid bills and see the person inside. This is something that other, similarly broke people are usually unable to do.

When it comes to people of my own class, they usually just see a guy who goes deeper in debt with every paycheck. They see a man who, while a brilliant writer, is unable to make ends meet and, as such, is not a very attractive person when seeking a mate. However, a wealthy woman would be unconcerned with such frivolous and unimportant aspects of my life. She would be able to look through the facade that the world has set up around me and fall in love with the brilliant genius instead of the broken social misfit that most people see.

It's a small wonder that so many artists try to hang around in circles where rich people can be found. So often, I end up having a conversation with a wealthy woman who really understands art and my need to grow a very long beard. Most lower-middle class women just see the beard as a barrier to employment in a high-paying job and my writing as something that keeps me from getting a "real job." Someday my wealthy woman will come along and sweep me off my feet and bring me to a place where I can concentrate solely on my art and, of course, my love for her.
