I bought the ring, proposed, obviously. Riley said, yes, we got married. Now, what's really interesting is years later, I looked into that, because I was like, how is that so specific? Two to three months seems like a really thought-through plan. And I spoke to a lot of other men who all concurred with me that they spent two to three months salary, no matter how much they made.

I started looking at it online. I found a De Beers commercial from the 1980s. I'm not kidding you. You can go and find it on YouTube.

I went onto YouTube in the 1980s. There's a commercial. Which I remember it being like a silhouette of a man and a woman. And I'm not kidding you, at the end of the commercial, it says, what better way to spend two to three months salary?

It literally says that. And I couldn't believe it. I was like, wow, we've all been brainwashed. That I proposed 25 years after that commercial came out. I've never even seen that commercial like before that. And I'm following this advice and so is everyone else. And I think it also comes from our hunter-gatherer days that you wanted someone who could protect you.

You wanted someone who could fight off the lions and the snakes. You wanted someone who could build a home from scratch. And today our modern day version, which makes no sense, our modern day version is, well, that's what a bad boy can do. A bad boy can protect me. A bad boy can do this. A bad boy can do that.

But that doesn't actually add up and it doesn't make sense because protection in modern day is very different to protection in ancient days.

Correct. Well, that's a whole other conversation. I really think that If you're choosing who you want to be with simply based on how much they earn, how tall they are, or what job they have, you are marrying their salary, their bank account, and their job, not them. What does that mean? It means, yes, you will never run out of money, but you may never have enough love.

It may mean that you can boast about your partner's title, but they may not be with you at every place you want them to be at. So you have to realize what you're marrying, what you're committing to. That's what you're getting in this exchange.

And I think what's really interesting to me is I meet a lot of friends and women who will say to me, I really want a man who's successful, but I want him to be my number one cheerleader. And I'm like, well, have you realized that the person who's out there making money and being successful, they can't be a cheerleader at the same time, because they got to be on the field.

The person on the field can't be your cheerleader. I'm not saying that you should choose one over the other, but I'm saying you've got to be clear about the choices you're making. I love Radhi. I can't be there with her as a cheerleader every step of the way, wherever she is. Neither can Radhi be with me.
