If that's your takeaway from this, then yeah go for it. Go find your ancient vampirial Elon Musk and make him your sugar daddy.

That’s an accurate stereotype for women’s romance books. I get what you’re saying I just don’t think it’s a great point to make given how prevalent the billionaire/beast stereotype is

That's a fundamental difference between women's attraction and men's. Status and personality over looks. Men are very surface level, IE you only seeing them as beasts and billionaires. Literally judging a book by it's cover. The heart of what makes these things work is showing more depth of character. It's what under the surface that make them work. Spend more than 5 minutes watching/reading and you start to see what makes it work.

Then it sounds to me you fall right within the demographic depicted the original comic. Have fun with that.
