What common thing or common things do these out-of-your-league women value? Is it money? Is it the potential for being next to someone who has confidence and power because of money?

You need to figure out how to be subtle and let these women convince themselves that you have what they value. If money is what they value (and most women do), then playing the game can be as simple as having a few nearby props such as an investment magazine casually left on the back seat of your car. You decide what will work for you. Get in the game if you want to score.
