    Being that finances is one of the leading reasons for divorce, her advice is crucial for every couple to discuss.

    I think you covered everything most ppl can relate to. U touched on several things I've dealt with & are dealing with. You gave clear solutions. & u spoke very well. U look very confident & like u know exactly what your talking about.
    I hope this goes for 3 million views!!

    Such an important topic considering a lot of marriages end due to money problems. Better to get it straightened out before marriage.

    I find this TedTalk by Leah Collins to be very insightful for anyone in any type of relationship. The strategy and approach discussed in the Tedtalk provides an easy opportunity to minimize relationships from failing, at least financially. Job well done Leah.

    This was an excellent talk. I loved where she mentions the idea that prenups are not just for the rich. It's just a smart thing to do especially if you have premarital assets and/or debt. Also, I appreciated her vulnerability in sharing her personal misstep.

    By experience, I’ve learned this lesson the hard way. Your character speaks volumes & your ability to walk away says even more. You are an inspiration in more ways than one & I’m thankful to call you my friend! Thank you for speaking up about the significance of financial compatibility. Ladies, please listen & run away as fast as you can from situations like this & DO NOT ignore the red flags!! 🚩

  • @ahmed51988
    @ahmed51988 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +39

    Her advice is valid for women and men as well. Marrying a stay at home wife will lead to a different life and challenges than a working one. A wife's readiness to contribute to the expenses of the family even if she earns well should be cleared from the beginning and ofc different men will have different expectations. Neither of the partners should assume some logical or natural stance of the other. Everything should be discussed.

It's these needed conversations that gives context to the Conversation so many of us really need to be having opposed to the infamous and unwanted opinions on "50/50".

    The Torahteaches that you can only tell who a person really is by looking at three paradigms: Koso, Kiso, Kaaso. How does a person act when he has alcohol in him? How does he relate to money? What is he like when he is angry? In these three situations, the real situation reveals itself.

    Relationships/ marriages are HARD WORK! With that said, financial compatibility is a crucial foundational component for lifelong success. Leah's talk has provided simple, straightforward tips / guidelines to help any person maneuver through this stage of dating, which could lead to a lifelong commitment. Note that each individual's journey is different, established by one's personal boundaries, preferences, and aspirations. After doing this work and setting these parameters, the key is not to miss, excuse, or ignore the red flags, which will jeopardize the sustainability of the commitment.

    Wtf in 15 years she doesn't know about, partner's financial status or crisis. Even if a partner hides or lies about money but think again in 15 years she is not able to observe the situation. Well all the she is talking about divorce and money which can lead thoughts to any happy couple about unnecessary negative imagination of upcoming situations which may never come in future. Why don't people talk to support each other and love and stay strong any situations fight together in life.

    Also if you measure your love in dollars this is not the love. Better do not make a family with that person.
