I think she has no clue about money because she's never had/made any herself. Middle class is not $1,000,000 a year in any city, even New York. I don't think she can find a single guy making that kind of money because (a) there aren't that many (and those that exist don't hang out in "bars" looking/hoping to be picked up, they're working all the time) and (b) they don't live in New York where it's so expensive. People with money got that way by not spending rather than spending. People live where it is most convenient and where most of their work is. They probably have multiple houses and may have one in New York but that's not where they stay.
