Typical introverted intellectual prep school/ivy league boring finance nice guy you are always meeting online. Just kidding, a little. I'm not 100% a finance guy, I'm actually a writer and an entrepreneur in the finance industry. And I'm Israeli-American, so that's a little different.

I don't deserve any of you of course but here's what I'm looking for in a significant other:

-Nice kind person
-Good work ethic and character
-Either a little younger, same age, or a little older
-Likes animals
-Forgiving of boring OKC profiles!

My only requirement is that you don't use the word "requirement" in your profile. We have feelings too.

Working and thinking and reading.

1) Writing (so I'm told).
2) Trying to improve.
3) Cooking spaghetti and omelettes.
4) Deadlines.

Also: If I'm reading something and get distracted, then when I turn back to reading—even if it's hours later and I've closed the book and put it away somewhere in the meantime—I will right away find the exact place where I left off.

I'm reserved—if I were there in person talking to you, I wouldn't be talking to you. But I warm up quickly.

I like most of the same things the other boys like, plus the following which you help you decide if we're soulmates:

Books:
-The Count of Monte Cristo
-Day of the Jackal
-Anna Karenina
-Sherlock Holmes
-Books about economic history, business and investing

Movies:
-Two for the Road
-Robin Hood (the Disney one with the foxes)

Food: I have simple tastes—I eat just about everything.

TV: I just binged on House of Cards from Netflix. I liked the British version better—I binged on that one too.

1) Optimism
2) My glasses (can this count as two please?)
3) Something to read
4) All creatures great and small
5) The internet of course.

what kind of message my @aol.com email address sends to the younger women on this site.

Kidding.

Relaxing somewhere.

It took me a long time to write this little.

You know brainy is the new sexy.
