You should probably just date till you drop dead because it's stupid. I've heard you say before that the most
00:00:04
important financial decision you'll ever make is who you'll marry. Yes. Why? Because think of the geometric loss of
00:00:12
wealth. Every time you get divorced, you pay the woman that you divorced or man and you pay the government
00:00:23
a third often through capital gains and liquidation because you can't separate all the assets without liquidating them
00:00:30
sometimes. So you've got the government sitting there, you've got the other spouse sitting there. This is the
00:00:36
stupidest thing you can ever do. It took your whole life to to actually create this nest egg. Could be, you know,
00:00:44
you're 45 or whatever. You you've got a comfortable life and all of a sudden you
00:00:47
don't like your wife or husband. Think about that for a while because you are going to wipe out up to twothirds of
00:00:54
your wealth. You better really like somebody else a lot. And frankly, sometimes it's not the other person that
00:01:04
you're divorcing. It's you. You're the problem. If you're getting married for the third time, you're a guy or a woman.
00:01:11
It's not them, it's you. There's something wrong with you, and you should probably not get into another economic
00:01:17
union. You should probably just date till you drop dead because it's stupid.
