Smart, attractive, reliable. Pick two. Pfft. That's a simple optimization problem. Desirability = smart x attractive x reliable. Although... Some of the factors may be correlated positively or negatively, which limits the possibility space... Though on the other hand, one factor might predict future change in another... 12 hours later... After 2 to 16th power simulations, it is clear that you should assign 0.71 two intelligence, 0.83 two reliability, and 0.46 to attractiveness. Wow. What a waste of time. You must be really attractive and reliable.

I would take smart and reliable ! #1 being smart means she could have a job and support me to the level of luxury I want to be accustomed to !

You really don’t have to be smart any more.All the knowledge and opinions you need to be popularmay be found on your mobile device, so that you maybe as empty of thought as a Zen master, free of worryand frown lines, and always part of the Intelligentsia.So if you are beautiful and have a good cellular plan,being smart is only weighted at 0.14 at best.
