Quick credibility explanation. The reason you should listen to me is because I have been coaching men for the last 10 years on women and relationships. Many men over 40 have been severely damaged by a financial catastrophe that can be EASILY avoided. This goes for women also, I'm not posting this for the men only.
The easiest way to get rich and avoid financial ruin is.....
1- follow what's in the fastlane
2- pay all your taxes
3- do not get married, and do not get divorced
As far as #3, the signs are everywhere. Marriage and divorce ruin your finances. But most people refuse to see the evidence that is right in front of their face, because they are blinded by love and tradition, wanting to do the same things their parents did.
News flash! The laws have completely changed since your parents got married. You will be wiped out for sure if you have money and you get a divorce.
I urge you to watch this documentary on the divorce industry-
To put it in a nutshell:
The laws have changed. Divorce is an industry now. There is massive collusion between judges and lawyers, and they will take all your cash and liquidate your assets during a divorce proceedings. There's no rules in Family Court. Judges don't have to go by laws or precedents. They can do anything they want. There is no oversight and no challenging them.
On day 1, you sign up for a divorce attorney and they will often put a lien on your house and other assets just in case you can't pay. The judge can then order your house to be sold to pay legal fees.
After day 1, the judges and lawyers team up to drag out the case as long as possible.
In summary, it's not that you need to worry about your spouse taking your money, it's the lawyers that will take it.
I know a girl whose parents spent $600K on a divorce, and it's not over yet!
BUT WAIT, I CAN GET MARRIED BECAUSE I WON'T BE GETTING DIVORCED!
Nope sorry, the stats just don't support this. More than half of marriages end up in divorce and there's nothing special about you or your spouse that will change this. As you grow your fortune, you also incentivize your spouse to divorce you. Do you really want to have a 50% chance of getting financially wiped out? People change, goals change, relationships end. You can't fight this, it's human nature.
Marriage is a dirty business.
Divorce is even more dirty!
Again, please watch that entire documentary, it's available on iTunes. Don't be blind to the biggest mistake of your life.
BTW I'm single so I have no ax to grind. I just feel I'm one of the few people paying attention to what's actually going on, so I wanted to share it with you here.
