Do I need to date a baller?

I want to date a gentleman. I want to be taken care of. I want a man who opens doors and pays for dinner. But do I really need to date a baller? It’s not about being from wealth, it’s about character. It’s about wanting to protect and look out for me, even if that means a $1.99 chicken you cook from Ralphs or bringing homemade sandwiches and a blanket to a surprise day at the beach. I want a guy who is ambitious yes, but a baller … only in character, NOT IN KEEPING UP WITH THE JONES spending money he doesn’t have. After all, how’s he gonna protect me if he can’t protect himself.
