This depends on where you are.
Are you in a western nation? If so, then you're likely surrounded by women who are well provisioned, and well provisioned young women who aren't feeling any immediate physical or social need for a provider tend to go for "alpha" above all else. If you're trying to get young, attractive women in these environments, go for the alpha. Double this if you're in an urban hotspot (ex: NYC, Toronto, London, LA, etc) as your average young, attractive women there are even more accustomed to seeing rich men and even less inclined to be impressed by them.
Are you outside of the west? If so, you're surrounded by women who do not have access to the wealth and privilege afforded the every day western woman. They struggle quite a bit more financially and don't have the social safety nets and white-knight armies to protect them. They value providers a bit more because of this, and that means wealth counts for more in a mate.
If you're in a society like this (ex: Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, most of Latin America, and pretty much anywhere else in the developing world), go for the money, as it will provide a larger return on your investment.

Know your enemy and know yourself, find naught in fear for 100 battles. Know yourself but not your enemy, find level of loss and victory. Know thy enemy but not yourself, wallow in defeat every time.
