This!

I was struck by a completely average looking man when I casually mentioned the book I was reading. We talked for 2 hours about books, books that have been turned into films, and film directors. If you want a woman to take notice the rule is be interesting. A good sense of humor cannot hurt either.

It's going to take a long time before I find that woman who is smitten by my deep enthusiasm and knowledge of the Age of Discovery, my sense of humor notwithstanding. But when I find that woman, she's going to be ALL OVER ME. In my mind's eye, she'll be all "tell me more about Bartolome de Casas" while she's peeling off her clothes.

Woman and I would be all over this!

Other good things are crafts fairs, swing/salsa/tango dancing, joining a golf/tennis/swim club.

Who would carry a guitar around a supermarket?

At 250K you have to go way down the socio-economic ladder to find a woman who would consider 250K "stable"... with that in mind... pick hobbies that put you in contact with "common folk"...

Fishing (bass fishing), hunting, casino gambling, carnival cruses, beach vacations to Mexico, etc.

Ridiculous! The $250K comments and the suggested activities. I don’t know one woman who likes fishing or hunting or even casino gambling. Beach vacations you rarely see a guy alone that’s weird unless it’s some singles place. These are bad ideas.
