It seems very simple, more romantic than a dating app and would massively recoup my net worth because I’m sharing expenses, being motivated by my soulmate, and married people out-earn single people statistically especially over a longer time period. The 6 month ‘wait’ also implies i’m skipping any messy divorces. The only downside would be if they die soonish and i spend the rest of my life knowing no-one will compare, but that would still beat never meeting them (at least according to Alfred Tennyson).
You would need to ramp that percentage well up to triple figures before it became a problem.
I think a lot of people would consider doing that. But of course it’s not that simple. What happens when your partner finds out about the genie? Would you have met that person had you not paid the genie? Or maybe you would’ve met them in 24 months instead.
