Anyone saying that credit/finances don't matter in a relationship are insane. A marriage certificate is the most binding contract an average person will sign in their lives. If you don't think financial literacy in a partner is important you should probably do some research on what happens when you sign that piece of paper. Also, he said his bad credit score was due to poor decisions at 18/19. Bad debt falls off your report after 7 years and he was 29 when he filmed the show, so the math ain't mathin'.

@nk47100

It takes 7 years for derogatory marks to be removed from your credit report (like late payments) but that doesn’t mean your score suddenly jumps up 100 points after that just because those marks are removed. It still takes time to build credit and you need a history of debt accounts that are paid off in a timely way over a period of time to make those changes. So the math is mathing my friend.

@@universalmind0 That’s true that he didn’t have to wait that long necessarily, but we don’t know what his financial situation was during that time.

So maybe he wasn’t able to qualify - you’re also more likely to get rejected for credit card applications with negative marks still visible. And maybe his score was lower 7 years ago and it did go up over time. The point is - We don’t know. Let’s not judge.

Asking "whats wrong with your face", calling her a shxt person, saying everyone else thought she was terrible and shutting down anyone who stood up for Johnny eg Mar. Referring to her as it, that, was disgusting. Judging Izzy for not having the same luxuries as her, showing disgust at the fact that his favourite place to eat is Chipotle. That was so little and ugly of her. And yes, she knew she didn't want Izzy, the way she spoke to him and made him feel like nothing he did was good enough for her. He went into the bathroom to cry in private, but she made sure to leave the door open so the camera could get a glimpse of it. She judged Izzy for never having travelled. Like, hello, he grew up poor what did you expect. She's mean-spirited, spoilt and incapable of empathy.

I mean Izzy did lie by omission about his credit score until right before the wedding so I don't blame Stacey for having doubts and calling things off. Being too busy to mention it is just an excuse he should have made time for it.

Nikki is a huge narcissist. And I don’t think she’s a good person. You should listen to her podcast. There’s a constant underlying theme of her being jealous of other people, she doesn’t support or uplift other women, she’s an ageist, she fat shames, She’s constantly talking about her luxe and not being skinny enough as if it’s the most important thing in the world. And the way she talks about anal penetration and giving blow jobs in front of her mother who was on the podcast is really disturbing. I think there’s something in the wrong with her .

Stacey in 2 interviews said: she specifically requested from Izzy for a whole month - the Financial Talk with the finan. statements (on the bases of advice from the premarital counselling- she went by her self, cause he “didn't have the time to join“) - but he was avoiding it and telling her “it's all good, I'll bring them“!

A 1099 means no benefits and no reliable income. It can mean more pay, but often it doesn't. Some people like the predictability of a steady paycheck and benefits. Also, if you have stellar credit as I imagine Stacy does, it's going to hurt you if you marry someone with bad credit, and limit your purchasing ability as a couple. Better to get the credit up first or make the major purchases and then get married.

Also, his score really isn’t that bad. As in, it’s not unfixable. Scores of people who didn’t grow up in wealth don’t receive financial literacy education but we are going to vilify them for it? Stacy could have helped him and had some compassion and empathy. Sorry but she comes across as entitled and selfish. Not a fan.

Was this filmed at the same time as part 1? They are all wearing the same thing. Izzy just removed his bomber jacket and his cap, from the looks of it. And Nick removed his bottom down shirt. If so, you guys were able to watch the entire serie before the general public ? 👀👀

This whole interview bothered me. I could see what Stacey meant when she said she would ask Izzy a question and he would just ramble. Because that’s exactly what he did for this whole interview. I don’t think he ever fully answered any question. I can see where people say Nick was pushing but that’s because Izzy was literally not saying anything except that he’s a giving and loving partner. So annoyed with this. Was really hoping for more.

He really does and contradicts himself constantly, and he does lie directly at times... this is unacceptable for marriage. Obviously if it was a random person asking it's none of their business but someone that may be legally married to you for life. Hell no.

I remember watching the episode where Johnnie tells Izzy that he is her only person and broke up with Chris, I cringed and said out loud something along the lines of “uh oh, he’s gonna dump her now that he knows he has the upper hand and confirmed her interest in him.” I saw it coming miles away. His desperation for validation and how he manipulated Johnnie by implying that he needed more from her to prove her love for him and she did it by dumping Chris. That’s how I saw it and then I just knew he would dump her once he got what he wanted. The funny thing is, Stacy did the same exact thing to Izzy. She knew Johnnie was his number 1 and then once she saw that Izzy really fell for her, she dumped him. Izzy used Johnnie’s past relationships as an excuse to dump her and Stacy used the bad credit score to dump him. Karma 😂

You guys were literally telling him how he feels the whole time and never even really asked him “How do you feel?” It was mainly “I feel like you…”

Can someone please tell me what happened to the girl that used to host.. (this girl Genevieve took her place??).. whered she go? I havent seen her for awhile now

Exactly. Didn't he just contradict himself?! Was I the only one who heard him say he was blindsided cos she never gave him reason to doubt, and then 20 minutes later he says that she gave him a heads up. He's a smooth talker and seems pretty charming, but I found him quite duplicitous. Finances are a top 3 reason for divorces, so how do you not make the time to have such a fundamental discussion, especially since he mentioned that to Johnnie earlier on!

Izzy has some healing to do. That's all I am going to say. Also, can you invite Miriam to the podcast? The way the show was edited to make this woman look foolish when she is a successful business owner, a chemist and a smart person. She stood up to Uche, the ultimate bully. But she was portrayed as the "angry Black woman" as usual. These editors have no shame. Please, get her on your show. Justice for Miriam!!!!

Nikki was awful she just excused so much bad behaviour

I think Stacey assumed that the show only puts Financially Independant men on there , Her Dad told him , I think he should have ended it with her after her dad said that

Okay listen there’s 2 sides yea Stacey is a total brat and an average yt woman with a rich pops and no struggle ( not neglecting the fact that she did work hard to get where she is but let’s keep it real here) but at the end of the day we’re talking MARRIAGE here. We all have hardships and not everyone has a1 credit shoot I just turned 23 and got my first student loan payment and was late the very FIRST time and my score when all the way down 150 points. But i do want to put a little light on him. He KNEW Stacey had it going on he KNEW he would be set. In hindsight he was gonna be moving into HER home.. this was a win for him. Hell Johnie was claimed to be a lawyer and still was open about her debt… he was wanted the benefit of having a wife that would hold him down financially which is why he said screw johnie even tho he def had the most connection with her emotionally HENSE WHY THEY KISSED WHEN HIM SND STACEY BROKE UP AND WHY HE WAS SO MAD ABT HER GOING RIGHT BACK TO CHRIS. So yea Stacey was a brat and needs to be with someone like her father and Izzy just needs to get his life together bc he did try to borderline leech off her 😂😭😭😭 like it’s cool but be fr

@@dmamaj50I don’t think he went to college and her issue is that he didn’t tell her and didn’t think his financial status was an issue. Things like not having health insurance, having bad credit and having 100% commission job are scary when you are financially stable - it doesn’t make someone unlovable or morally wrong but it is a huge obligation marrying someone like struggling. It means reconsidering what kind of home you can have, savings etc.

Yeah it was based on when the interview aired. The first interview lined up with him still being engaged to Stacey on the show. This Interview is after the reunion airs. So he can talk about where things are in present time.

I think Stacy used the show to get exposure to find a rich husband, just like the bachelor girls use the show to be able to date football players 😂

Couple things.. 1. Kristen came out and said it wasn’t the same thing when Ariana and Tom got together, literally in the finale episode 2. Not 7 years ago, Ariana and Tom got together 9/10 years ago 3. Ariana froze her eggs after Tom was guilt tripping her into kids 4. …. We just pulled ourselves out of this hole why did you have to trigger us all back in there 😂

Stacy probably had a problem with the fact that his 1099s weren't stable ... Because he wasn't stable in the new job. I dunno. There's things I don't like observing Stacy but I think Izzy might not be taking full responsibility

Nikki's portion of this episode was genuinely brutal to watch.

I 100% agree with Nikki about hoping to not make bad choices.

Financial reasons is the number one reason why people get divorce. I’m glad Stacey was trying to get the bottom of things with Izzy about his finances. Stacey cannot control how she was raised and why are we bashing her because she wants someone who is financially stable like her and doesn’t have bad credit. For all those who say oh bad credit isn’t a big deal, it actually is to someone who has good credit and spent years building that. I know plenty of people who didn’t grow up privileged but also don’t have bad credit. Try buying a home and getting a mortgage with bad credit. Bad credit doesn’t “define” someone but to turn a blind eye to that and just get married anyway because you’re “in love” is stupid and eventually will end up in divorce anyway. Stacey is smart for not marrying him. Stacey isn’t a horrible human being at all but she wanted someone at her level and there’s nothing wrong with that. Izzy has far more red flags and issues than Stacey does imo. I truly believe Stacey cared a lot for him and maybe even loved him but unfortunately that’s not enough to get married to someone. You have to consider all factors when you get married to someone.. not just if you love them or have fun together. Your lifestyle, values, finances, if you want kids or not, all these things need to align before you should get married if you want it to actually last

Stacy doesn't even have money.. It's her dad's, and thays why she was so obsessed with marrying a man who will take care of her. People with extreme wealth don't usually have to worry about that. Without her dad, she would have nothing and yet still can't empathize with those who have little. She didn't earn it yet literally acts like having a rich dad is an accomplishment she worked hard for, lol. It's pathetic and she probably will be single forever.

Who cares what her financial situation is you are totally allowed to prioritise financially security and comfort. Being single forever is better than being broke in a mediocre relationship. Plenty of celebs get fleeced when marrying those that earn less it’s smart to be conscientious with money.

Nikki was not ready for Nick's emotional intelligence.

SF: They don't tell you the distances, because that is part of the mental games.

Poor guy doesn't see he was absolutely played. As a woman, I see it very clearly. Stacy was gonna go the distance with anyone but never marry. She has her stupid social media accts - the face audit and the closet audit - and wants to be an influencer, prob because she knows thats her only ticket to money of her own. I'm sorry but a CREDIT SCORE is not going to make someone go from being wildly in love and "knowing everything about" someone to not feeling it or not being in love in 5 days. Its bullshit. 1. They aren't permanent 2. He had no debt 3. The low score was probably from lack of credit and 4, if she owns her home and wants him to move in, why is it urgent he has a good credit score?! Sometimes it just takes a few months to go from poor credit to good credit. It's silly. He's being way too kind and she's so manipulative that I'm sure she's his "great friend" suddenly now right when the show is airing so he won't bad mouth her. She's conniving as hell. If he thinks she cares about him, he will want to have her back. We saw him call her basically a gold digger after the wedding, so we all know there was way more feelings there but he's protecting her. How convenient that her desire for friendship came 1.5 yrs later when the show aired when previously, they didn't even speak. 😂😂

I agree.. very convenient for them to become friends and work things out just in time for the reunion and the media tour... its complete bs and Izzy fell for it unfortunately. She manipulated him one last time so that he wouldn't go into all these interviews bashing her.. telling us how he really felt after everything she put him thru. I get he has flaws and didn't handle everything perfectly but... I know people like Stacey and have seen it too many times... she's the real con and has been playing the long game.

They have VERY different outlooks on life and money - the credit cards are just an example. Your comment exemplifies that your values on money align with Izzy and those that disagree align with Stacy. She was shocked that he doesn’t see bad credit as a big deal and something he should have told her sooner, she was concerned that he didn’t feel the need to tell her his job is 100% commission so there is a risk he can’t actually contribute to their joint finances or that if his health is compromised she would be responsible for covering his costs and so much more. People that don’t prioritise money and financially security should date others like that - it’s about risk tolerance. I’m commend Stacy for not gambling with her financial future.

The way they’re talking about “and just a cot??” .. do they know what our military does? A cot would be a luxury.

Dont get me wrong. Im liking Izzy a lot more now. However I feel like Nick is being waaaayyy to hard on Stacy and babying Izzy.

Izzy is so graceful and i felt like Nick was pushing for Izzy to provide some dirt on Stacey, but the man stayed classy. Mad respect 💯

Not the dept again! Lol

I wonder if Izzy’s hesitation to state publicly that he’s officially dating his girl has anything to do with him being on the next season of Perfect Match…

It's so fascinating how different people's perspectives can be. I viewed it as Izzy playing Stacy, and wanting to secure a partner so he had a home to move into by the end of the month and a strong financial future. Which is why he delayed the convo about finances till the wedding hoping she would be so in love that she wouldn't care. I think Stacy went out on a limb and dated someone that isn't her usual type and once the fun was over and reality of the situation with his finances, career confronted her she pulled out. If he had been more upfront and owned it plus had a plan I'm sure it could be manageable. But Izzy seems very in the moment. Izzy rambles without answering directly, misses critical information, lacks basic introspection and reflection skills. Up till that conversations she was under the impression he had no money issues, that he could contribute 50% towards their life (Izzy's own words)

You know, I’m not sure about anything… who knows if either of them took this seriously. It’s possible they played each other. Or, you could be right that Izzy was the one playing Stacy. I’m never sure anything when it comes to them…

1:15:58 this is absolute bullshit! She made it clear two days before the wedding she is going to say no. How is she responsible to protect his heart? If he was still hoping for a yes this is on him not her. Nick knows very well how production works, she could not have just walked away but she was honest with him. If Izzy was still hoping for a yes it was because he is looking for validation, this is not on Stacy.

Nick is on something else! When Izzy brings up his mistakes, Nick replies with “we all make mistakes” but kept saying Stacy is mean and all.. Not wanting to marry someone because they don't have money or a bad credit score is a valid excuse!! Love won't pay the rent or pay the mortgage.. Nick kept forcing Izzy to say something bad about Stacy and kept telling us HIS own opinion.. This interview was Nick’s interview not Izzy!

Its very clear Stacy wants a rich man to fly and buy her everything she wants. Izzy is oblivious ... way to nice.
