A couple of months ago, I 13 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 3: forty two mail just got a rather large financial windfall, 14 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 3: literally fu money. Unfortunately, the dating prospects happened to improve 15 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 3: since then. Money always doesn't always help in that sense, 16 00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 3: so I enlisted the help of a matchmaker with a 17 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 3: good track record.

But 34 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 3: I am only doing so now because I am having 35 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: a house I bought renovated and it's more economical to 36 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 3: stay with them instead of wasting money renting a place 37 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 3: while I wait for the work to be completed. I 38 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 3: jokingly mentioned to my father the day before my appointment 39 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: with the matchmaker, I hope she doesn't twist certain things 40 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: about myself for topics I bring up to make it 41 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 3: look like I'm a bad potential match That would be 42 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 3: my worst nightmare. 43 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: So so that would be your worst matchmaker too, Yeatly, 44 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: I honestly wouldn't mention that you would your parents, even 45 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: maybe temporarily. It's not exactly a selling point, but uh, 46 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: the right matchmaker would know how to frame that make 47 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: you look splendid. 48 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would know why the matchmaker would intentionally make 49 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 3: you look worse. So I go see this young woman 50 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 3: after I filled out a rather long questionnaire about what 51 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 3: I did for work, what I like, bobbies, et cetera. 52 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 3: I should have known something was off when she asked 53 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: me as the first question, what do you notice about 54 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 3: the difference between what other men say about your appearance 55 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: versus women? 56 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 2: Wow, that is a trippy question. Men are more complimentary. 57 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: I would say, probably not gonna be as truthful as 58 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: your friend perhaps or other women. 59 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I told her the truth that men usually make 60 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: the disparaging remarks. Well, women usually say you're decent looking dude, 61 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 3: not sure why you don't have someone, especially now without 62 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 3: being financially shackled. She then said, I'm gonna tell you straight. 63 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: Many of my female clients are going to look at 64 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: your photos and say, he seriously thinks he can get 65 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: me just because he came into a financial windfall, just 66 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: being quit blunt. 67 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: I gotta say matchmakers, they can get a little bit 68 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: intense inside their heads, and they start to feel like 69 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: a certain amount of authority and they can trip out 70 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 2: over dominating things that they don't understand necessarily, So I 71 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 2: wouldn't take it too seriously. Yeah, I'm questioning who this was? 72 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 2: Was there? Okay, go ahead, She's. 73 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 3: Not very good. Okay, she mentions a few women on Instagram. 74 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: I showed her earlier as a sample of who I like, saying, 75 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: do you really think they would go for you just 76 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: because you're subtly wealthy? Now, let me ask you, do 77 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 3: you go to the gym at all? This seems like 78 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 3: a really blunt, kind of mean person. I feel like, 79 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 3: I don't know what's your approach when you're talking to 80 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 3: new clients. 81 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: Okay, well, actually, in our agreements, it just says you 82 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: need to be a nice person. Yeah, basically, you have 83 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: to be nice to your matches. You have to be 84 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: nice to us. And if somebody whips out like some 85 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: sort of argument like that is disrespectful, we immediately will 86 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: like not take them as a client or point to 87 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: the door. Yeah, I mean, it's just not a good 88 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: way to be. And we if they treat us like that, 89 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 2: we know they're gonna treat their matches like that, so 90 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: it's just forget about it. 91 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't do well for your business if you're 92 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 3: sending people. Yeah, I told her, since the windfall, I 93 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 3: have been going a lot more than I did before. 94 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 3: So what she replied, which translate to you just started 95 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 3: when you got that windfall. I answered her questions honestly, 96 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 3: and the result was her pashing me. Here is a 97 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 3: summary of what I dealt with. She asked me why 98 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: Comcast gets such a bad rep in customer service. Her response, 99 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 3: you consider it poor customer service to reserve their best 100 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 3: and fastest service for their biggest spenders. Good thing you 101 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 3: didn't go to school for business because you would have 102 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 3: flunked out. That's such a specific question. 103 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 2: Are you serious this really happened? 104 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 3: This is crazy, this. 105 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 2: Greenish all time?

I mean, the money didn't hurt, that's 110 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: for sure, but it's not something to base a relationship on. 111 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 2: And we don't take gold diggers as clients by the way, Yeah. 112 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 3: I told her, I'm a car guy, but one vehicle 113 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: I wouldn't buy is a Ferrari. Her response, that's because 114 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 3: Ferrari's standards. They don't just let any dope with money 115 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 3: like yourself walk in and think you can buy whatever 116 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 3: you want.

Anything he 1248 00:57:10,280 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 3: just got a full time. Job he pursued, school but 1249 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,920 Speaker 3: is taking a break after some.

Issue sometimes we generally communicate all, 1258 00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 3: right but WHEN i really want information from, him it 1259 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,840 Speaker 3: seems impossible to get without a lot of intuition and. 1260 00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 3: Clarification it's fun to talk about the, future but sharing 1261 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 3: goals and working to achieve them are different. THINGS i 1262 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 3: can't say he's particularly motivated to do anything outside of 1263 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 3: expanding his. Consciousness this was his answer WHEN i asked 1264 00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 3: him what he wanted from life at the, Time, well 1265 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 3: he's into, psychedelics instances and lucid dreaming and deep experiences like. 1266 00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:05,439 Speaker 3: This other than, THIS i don't know what else he's really. 1267 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 3: Into he doesn't drink, much he smokes devils let us. 1268 00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:12,600 Speaker 3: Occasionally substances certainly don't rule his. Life many of his 1269 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 3: friends are like, minded and just about none of his 1270 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 3: friends have a lot going for. Them in my, OPINION 1271 00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 3: i feel real judgmental, here but it's a personal. PREFERENCE 1272 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 3: i get that he's happy with his life and they 1273 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 3: are happy with, hers BUT i don't see happiness. There 1274 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,840 Speaker 3: his friends don't have stable, jobs they move, frequently and 1275 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 3: more than half have young. Kids. Wow, SEE i was 1276 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:34,440 Speaker 3: a quick. PAUSE i was going to, say maybe this 1277 00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 3: is because he's twenty five and is a little bit 1278 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 3: younger than. Her but if they have young, kids it 1279 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 3: seems like maybe they're in an area where that is 1280 00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 3: more common to start a life. 1281 00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 2: Earlier so it, depends and maybe on THIS i was 1282 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 2: going to blow out a state, name but it's tightly 1283 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 2: offensive IF i mentioned a state of people get married 1284 00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:51,240 Speaker 2: and having kids really. 1285 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:51,440 Speaker 1: Young. 1286 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 3: Bak all his friends are, single, right, now and many 1287 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:57,640 Speaker 3: have been in rocky relationships in the. Past i'd be 1288 00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 3: miserable in their lifestyle AND i can't relate to. Them 1289 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 3: most of my family live like, this and this is 1290 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,240 Speaker 3: WHY i live across the country and rarely see. Them to, 1291 00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 3: me this lifestyle breeds depression and, listlessness AND i explicitly 1292 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 3: do not want to be around.
