      Ruriko and I put an offer in on a house yesterday. You’ll enjoy the price negotiation. “Broker, it’s been great having you take us to N properties. Could my wife and I have some privacy, please?” Ruriko: “Oh we could just go outside.” Broker: “LOOK AT THE TIME. Must excuse me!”

      Ruriko and I have a ten minute discussion, agreeing on the property and the bid I’m to put in for it. Broker returns after his “pre-scheduled call with office which he totally forgot about.” Broker: “The sticker price is X but I think I can get you Y.” Me: “We have an offer:”

      I then describe a relatively minor price concession on Y. Broker, immediately: “You drive a hard bargain Mr. McKenzie but I think...” Ruriko: “Oh wouldn’t Z be more auspicious? Me: ??? Ruriko: “Yes honey look at what the numbers would spell. Must be Z.”

      Z is $7k under our offer. Broker: “Some trouble on the home front?” Me: “No, but you heard my wife, we can offer Z.” Broker: “ah I’ve been there lad. Well, we can work with Z.” Later, alone with Ruriko:

      “I don’t recall that being part of the plan.” “Well if I had told you you wouldn’t have looked surprised you would have looked like you were trying to look surprised.” “Oh good we were running a plan.” “Of course we were running a plan.” “Because the numerology thing.”

      Ruriko: “Yeah a lot of women are into that.” “I suppose so, honey.” “Shame nobody ever asks ‘Ma’am, before I negotiate with you did you maybe use to work for a bank?’ “A shame indeed.” “I will accept $3k for services rendered.” “Charge more.” “I knew you’d say it.”
