Trying to get my husband to see the bigger picture
Hey guys, it's Jason Chang here again. Quinton Slay's thread inspired me to make my own little thread about my personal life in regards to my husband not "getting the bigger picture" when it comes to real estate.
So I am 29, he is 41, and we've been married for only a couple of months here. He's a well-known lawyer here in Tampa and very good at what he does. I am a serial entrepreneur, with my foray into the world of real estate investing being my latest venture.
For some reason he hasn't really been on board with the whole investing thing since day 1. I've shown him just about everything I could, and used every sales pitch imaginable, but nothing can ever convince Darrell.
Does anyone here have tips for me to get his emotional support at the very least? He thinks investing is silly and just thinks I should work a regular job like being a cashier at Macy's.
