    Prenups don't work, 50% of people get divorced, and women initiate between 70% and 90% of divorces. Great tips from Dave. Physical intimacy can cause people to ignore the important questions before marriage. However, if you have money, you need to consider establishing a trust.

    Marriage is a blessing for us, and we were intentional about going to pre marital counseling and going through FPU beforehand! We cannot tell you how much those both immensely helped us! Thank you for who you are and all you do, Dave! You have inspired us to make a channel with videos on finances too! God Bless!

    A successful marriage is when you both come into a agreement with Gods word ! Believe three things that hold a marriage together is this love , respect, forgiveness and both born again of the Holy Spirit when both encounter and walk in this nothing will tear them apart , God is the bond to the marriage, when God is first in the marriage the rest will be solved sensible with wisdom WOW WE GOT LONGS WAYS TO GO THOUGHT THIS GROWING AS CHRISTIAN had limits 😀

    Why are people so against marriage in the comments? 😑 If you truly love someone and you want to spend the rest of your life with them, why are you worried about money, divorce and losing assets? Just love the person and try to live happily. Geesh. People focus of the wrong things, if it's that serious get a prenup.

    Lord have mercy. Based on your comments, I'm guessing you are female? I am not attempting to attack you, but listen carefully: It's really convenient for a female in today's society to be dismissive of the system that is designed to place men at a severe disadvantage if the marriage fails. Your mentality reminds of the old school southern 85 year old bigot that dismisses claims of racism. Tell you what, they should place a law on the books that states: ' No alimony. No child support unless you were married for 5 years'. If you do divorce, you'll leave with what you brought...unless you ACTUALLY contributed to building the business. I bet if those laws were in place, women would tread more carefully, not be as irrational, and take the institution of marriage more seriously.

    philly 1971 clearly by my name im a female. Second, like i stated, why get married if you are already PLANNING divorce? All of what you wrote proved nothing. People should marry for love and not even worry about losing money. Your supposed to be married forever. How about pick the right time to get married with the right person and we won't have to have this discussion. You're dismissed.

    50% of marriages end in divorce, 70% of them initiated by women. They get most of everything following the divorce, including the kids. Women get sole custody of the kids around 80% of the time, and the father loses almost all his rights to those children, except for the financial connection. Yet you blame men for refusing to play this rigged game?

I've heard so many stories of guys losing everything in a divorce. One guy I know of lost his house, kids, and all of his money, and afterwards his ex wife had another guy living in the same house she took from him..pfft no thank you.

    First thing to do is go get snipped without her, and pretend like you’re unsure why you can’t have kids. Then when you walk in on her getting a BBC when you’re supposed to be at work and you get divorced (i wouldn’t divorce her but you may not be into sharing her) you won’t have to pay thousands in child support.

    @@yesnomaybeso5755 I acknowledge your opinion and I am happy that it is working for you. In my opinion, marriage is an antiquated institution in this day and age. Men disproportionately take on more risk and get their rear ends handed to them in family courts. As for me, I'm happily poly and practice ethical non-monogamy, enjoying the full buffet spread, while taking on zero financial liabilities. I planned my life this way so I'm not surprised that I like it. And I am happy that you found what you were looking for. Cheers!
