Why hasn't R.E. gotten me a wife?

I've made it to financial freedom with real estate and still I can't find a women that's interesting. I mean, yes I talk about real estate all day, but that should be very interesting. Where have I gone wrong? I work out a lot as well. Biceps for days. I guess I need more units. Anyone else find him or herself in my situation? If so, let's trade notes and figure this out IMO...

You're in luck. McRib Seminars International has one just for this conundrum. We call it "Adam's Rib." Whereas our other seminars focus on maximizing your understanding of real estate, Adam's Rib focuses on maximizing your understanding what woman really want, and showcasing your real estate bona fides in such a way that women will flock to you. Gorilla biceps aren't going to do it. Nice clothes? We wish it was that simple. No, you need education, smart, targeted, and up-to-date for the 21st century.

You'll learn step-by-step seduction techniques like the Subject To kiss close, the unrefusable checkbook flash, how to buy her a house for ca$h, templates for writing red-hot yellow letters, and compelling scripts to follow on the phone when speaking to motivated prospects. Everyone knows that real estate is all about relationships, after all. Why can't you leverage your hard-earned education and financial freedom to bring you high level success in other walks of life?

For those of you who march to the beat of a different drummer, we offer the related seminar programs "Steve's Rib" and there's also limited availability for "Rosie's Rib." Hope to see you soon! Respond now and get 60% of the first two Learning Modules, with your first closing guaranteed in 30 days or less!

Well... first things first you need the lingo. You are now FIRE (Financially Independent through Real Estate). Now that we got that out of the way, you need to explain that you've quit "working for the man" and you "left the rat race".... and now you don't have to work again because you're FREE!

If they don't get that, simply explain your life is like monopoly. You pick up a house put some money into it and take it all back out, you have this secret method where you can do this contentiously... forever or till you hit 10 loan but your looking for the right lady to be your wife and you'll help her get 10 loans for herself TOO!
Then causally drop how many doors you have non stop and tie it into how you don't work any more because it of.

Should be good.
Nope. I've done all of the above. The response is "Deer in the headlights". "Normal" people just don't get it. Or, I'm a crappy salesman (prolly this). However, I'm just gonna troll my RE licensing office.
Maybe you should watch Wolf of Wall street and refocus your efforts...

Lady’s man tip ; Easiest way to get a girl interested is when you are making a first impression at a bar and having small talk you ask her if she is into guys with a 6 pack .. when she responds “ yes” you lift up your shirt and say “ well baby I can do better than that cuz I got the whole case !”

Love that movie. However, if I remember correctly, it didn't end well. I want love AND freedom.

BiggerPockets has the answer!
BiggerPockets LOVE - the dating site for real estate entrepreneurs.
Even more than a bad deal, a bad life partner can REALLY cripple any real estate aspirations. The so-called "cash flow negative spouse" (TM - Scott Trench) can devastate your finances, ruin relationships, and worst of all, turn good real estate deals into total PIGS.
It's also 100% FREE.
The link above will take you to it - we released this like three years ago and it's been used countless times.
We got your back.

Tip 1. Don’t fall for a woman who is more interested in your real estate holdings than in you. My wife wants nothing to do with real estate and that’s how I like it. Tip 2. Match.com ........not bigger pockets

Not a bad read. Common sense stuff mostly. Although the author oddly enough has been married for 15+ years, so he's been out of the dating game too long. The game changes drastically every 2-3 and you need to calibrate accordingly. The basic psychology is still relevant though.

Save yourself some money go find a woman you hate and buy her a house .
I got married late ( age 40 ) she thought I worked for a construction business , ( I owned it ) she didnt find out about my rentals until 2 years AFTER we were married . She asked why didnt you tell me ? I said I didnt think about it ? Then she asked " what else dont I know ? And i told her I wont ruin the suprise .
Every year I suprise her

I think your problem is been too cheap, stop looking at the numbers on paper and buy something nice. Just bring up a zillow page and tell her that you own this house. bigger the house the better. Stop been so cheap and investing your biceps no1 likes that crap.

I'm not a lawyer, but a financially sophisticated woman will understand that an engagement ring worth less than $14,000 probably avoids any question over whether the ring is subject to the gift tax. Less money to Uncle Sam means more money to purchase income producing assets.
Account Closed I hope I get proposed to with a rubber band and a 3 cash flowing properties. You know what I'm not cheap make it 10.
