Recently, Mati Roy wrote a Facebook post, as well as a detailed dating profile with a very unique idea - offering a $2,000 bounty to person who finds someone he ends up having a child with.

We are very much aligned on our approaches towards partnerships and relationships. So I decided to fork his document and write my own!

I am offering a $100,000 bounty to the person who sets me up with my life parter. Your bounty will be paid in the following installments, via check, wire, and/or crypto, based on a typical VC vesting schedule.

Upon introducing me to a prospective "life partner", we may start dating, and "officially" start our relationship.

If the romantic, sexual, and/or "life partnership" relationship between myself and the candidate you referred is terminated before 1 year, a bounty shall not be issued.

Upon hitting our "1 year anniversary", you will be issued a lump sum of $25,000.

As our relationship continues, you will be issued monthly payments for the first 4 years of the ongoing relationship.

• Dec 20, 2021: You introduce me to a potential "life partner" candidate
• Dec 21, 2021: We end up liking each other, and go on our first "date"
• Dec 22-31, 2021: We go on multiple "dates" getting to know each other
• Jan 1, 2022: We officially "start" our relationship
• Dec 30, 2022: If we "break up" our "life partnership" (as defined by myself and the potential "life partner"), you will not be issued any bounty at this point
• Jan 1, 2023: We celebrate our "1 year anniversary". As the matchmaker, you are now issued a lump sum of $25,000
• Feb 1, 2023: We celebrate our 13 month anniverary. You are issued your monthly payment of $2,083.33
• Jun 1, 2023: If we break up on month 18, you retain your $25,000 + the monthly payments ($12,500). Totalling $37,500
• Jan 1, 2026: At this point you have fully vested the full $100,000 bounty

This is very much a work in progress, but as an alternative to a bounty, you may instead opt to invest in a "profit sharing" model of our total net income.

It will follow the same vesting schedule as the regular bounty, but be based off our income at that time.

Let's assume the bounty is set at 10% of our net income.

• Dec 20, 2021: You introduce me to a potential "life partner" candidate. I am currently contracting for a fintech startup, grossing ~$25,000/mo. Let's assume my potential partner makes approximately the same amount. For simplify let's assume we net 60% of our gross salary after taxes and whatnot. So $25,000 * 2 * .6 = $30,000/mo net. Your monthly bounty is $3,000, assuming we stay at our current income levels, don't make any capital gains on investments, etc. ...

• Jan 1, 2023: We celebrate our "1 year anniversary". As the matchmaker, you are now issued 10% of our net tax combined tax return (let's say $36,000, assuming all of our salaries stay the same and other factors).
• Feb 1, 2023: We celebrate our 13 month anniverary. You are issued your monthly payment of $3,000
