Unreceptive spouse - How to get them on board?

[Nick Johnson]

Within the past year, I have become very engrossed in learning all I can about real estate investing. My grandpa owns rental properties, and after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, I was ready to figure out how to start my journey. Our first house, first baby, and 3 moves later I am still trying to learn all I can so that I can finally buy my first probably hopefully within the next 2 years.

My wife tries to be a great listener, but REI doesn't really interest her and she thinks I'm "just too obsessed about money." I try to explain to her that I'm already happy so more money is strictly for security for our family, and to provide a lifestyle less dependant on working 40+ hours a week. I understand that until I take action is all just pointless babble to her, but I don't want to go this alone.

Any advice on how to get her on board and get into REI as a family affair?
