I think Bro Maxsee is right..people generally want to "move up", vs. "move down"...can it become obsessive to the point where people lose their perspective?

Yes, but that is true of many things in life..

An interesting thread...

well, nothing wrong with marrying up. But it must be within realistic expectations.
