Rich is right - the woman who divorces you is NOT the woman you married. Been there. A woman will marry you if you meet her needs. When you don't, she's gone. And there is nothing you can do about it.
Yeah and that's what women do on a daily basis and that's the reason NEVER TO DO IT you have to put up with the 🥜 case or pay pay pay TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT
the woman you marry is the same you divorce. its a combination of men not seeing it and women pretending the be what the guy wants. once a women has her hooks in she has no reason to treat him well.
Marriage is very good. You pay top dollar to eat a cold and dry slice of pizza that Chad got to eat for free while it was hot and juicy, right out of the oven.
Could be its because over the decades , women have been changed by society . EG Feminism . After the 2nd world war , things started to change and more women went to work and were being told be more like men etc .
The Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I was shown the Hell-fire and that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful." It was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungrateful to Allah?) He replied, "They are ungrateful to their husbands and are ungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to them. If you have always been good (benevolent) to one of them and then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, 'I have never received any good from you"
My losses didn’t come in the form of lawyer fees, or alimony. My losses came when my ex took 30k of my retirement. Then as I move to a new house I started over and got a little debt to rent a house. Then I realize I need to buy a home so I borrow from 401k before I can pay it all back I got laid off, 1099-R fellas. All that from a cheating woman. But like many I overlooked red flags. Not 304 type but the no general burning desire type. Good luck. 2 kids too. All good
In a nutshell Governments and Corporations don’t want strong families, which is the reason these current laws are in place. Corporations know a woman will spend far more on herself than a man, which means more $$$$ in revenue turnover.
I'm in a LTR with a single mom. We don't live together and never will and I'm not taking on helping her raise her kids. Never cohabitate and you can date whoever you want.
@@paulclinton6414 that is truth times 1 million. guys for some reason like leftovers. they fall for these sob stories where these women are innocent victims and every previous guy was abusive and these wimps buy into it.
There are states that require child support until the child is 21 if they attend college and are getting a certain GPA. I always found that absolutely absurd, not only cause you're 18 you're an adult, but also cause if the parents were married there would be no obligation of financial support of a child when they go to college.

men who sign a govt. contract is the same as showing your cards when gambling. you give the other person and the house leverage and your only option is to buy your way out or pay up big. either way you lose.
I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever,hoping to retire next year.. Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life
YES! that's exactly her name (Stacey Macken) I watched her interview on CNN News and so many people recommended highly about her and her trading skills, she's an expert and I'm just starting with her....From Brisbane Australia
Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 12 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life
Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn't know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, I'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super
Marriage is betting the farm on something with a 50% success rate. Its just not worth the risk. Especially if you have children wifh her. Women have the attention span of my 7 year old. The difference is when a child gets bored they move on to the next thing without destruction.
I have your words from a previous podcast in my head where you said that women are not there for us when we need them. That's so true! I'm feeling shitty today because today is one year since my mom passed away. Is my wife there to console me or give me a hug? F*** no!
I'm at 1:23, and this is sad to hear, that the woman that men married, is not the woman they are divorcing. Just so very sad. How do we go back to the way it was? Men and women naive, fools, and yet loving each other? Maybe I'm the fool for asking? I am a widower, with my wife over 20 years, so I am not quite in the same boat, but very lost in the modern dating world, and trying to protect my 8 year old son from those that would take everything from us. And no, Rich, I can't afford your high fees, but I do well financially (over $180K in the DC area).
I have watched numerous of your videos and there’s no doubt where you stand regarding marriage and fidelity. I don’t want to beat a dead horse. However, there’s a quote I respect and it is the following. “Honesty’s an expensive gift, don’t expect it from a cheap person”. The moral climate of the world is dismal, and unless mankind elevates his consciousness, I see no improvement. Just a thought from one soul. Peace
The Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him said about the coming of the Dajjal (Anti-Christ/False Messiah): "Most of those who go out to him will be women, until a man goes back to his wife, his mother, his daughter, his sister, and his aunt to shackle them tightly, fearing they would go out to him.”
Something that most people don’t realize is that once you file for divorce, custody of your children goes to the state and they have the “right” to determine anything to do with those children. Even if both parents agree on something else, the state can step in and make a different decision. That alone should scare people from getting marriedand having children, but we still need to have children.
@@szn1580 yeah having that visual accessory does not change her chances of bad behavior. You have to be her number one option and maintain that until death do you part
Faith leaders not developing a parallel or alternate path of marriage without the infernal state is a huge missed opportunity. Does the church care about marriage? The message is clear. No.
Even if they equal you financially, there’s risk they’ll run up credit card debt and cash out their retirement accounts, often secretly. Then you have to pay half their debt and give them half your retirement assets even though you got no benefit from her debt or retirement. Some women will stop working too.
1 year and a half separated, pondering about getting back together, yet I am still waiting to see if she at least tries to change some of her bad behaviors that were not working for us. A whole bunch of controlling, belittling and ultimatums. Women are becoming way to delusional, way way way to much. Rich has opened my eyes with his book in so many way. Thanks you.
The woman you marry is exactly the woman you divorce. Men just ignore the red flags because of her appearance or a desire for children. Divorce only happens when she is ready for it or when the man decides he longer wants to tolerate the woman he married. Women always show you who they are from the beginning.
Most women are in the marriage and divorce for-profit business, and the average marriage ends at the 8-year mark. Son, the odds are against you. If you can't afford to buy 2 of everything and lose half (likely more) you can't afford marriage. Marriage in the West is an irrevocable trust, with the man as the grantor, the woman as the beneficiary, and the government as the trustee. The trust is payable to the woman when she decides to leave the marriage, administered and enforced by the government. If you want to lose a friend, marry her. Is she a friend if she insists on marriage? As my EX said when she and her "friend" reached for my 401K retirement fund at settlement, "I was married to him". IMHO, 50% of American women are NOT cut out to be wives, life partners, and mates. (I'm 72 years old and bought 2 of everything the second time.)
The biggest problem for men in marriage is that women tend to stop providing their end of the agreement (bedroom fun) years BEFORE the end of the marriage while men are forced by law to continue their end of the agreement (providing) for years (or decades) AFTER the end of the marriage. If alimony was restricted to one month for every year of marriage, you would see the divorce rate plummet.
A friend and his wife were presented with a financial decision. They had the funds to either spend two weeks in the Bahamas or get a divorce. They chose the divorce, they said, because the vacation in the Bahamas would be over in two weeks but a divorce is something they would always have.
Happily married for 58 years and counting. Son and daughter also happily married. Just noting that not all marriages end in disaster. Happily married doesn’t mean everything is perfect, no marriage is without its issues and disagreements. How you address those issues and work to solve them is the key. My parents and my wife’s parents were also in long term happy marriages. I think being raised in a family that exhibits love and respect makes a big difference. My wife and I don’t remember either one of our parents ever having a serious argument much less a fight, but we were both raised in a time when the world was very different than it is today. Husbands were the providers and wives were the homemakers. Feminism changed the roles for both husbands and wives.
You worked to make your home good and sustainable, but that was then. This time is much different. You married your wife when there were no social media that would influence here at a very young age. There are so many boys and girls on the street. Today, you can be the nicest man to your wife, but she might get bored and leave because you are too nice and boring. The girls today are much different than they were 30 years ago without the internet and social media.
@@nichollle732 I agree. Social media has changed the world in both dramatic positive and negative ways. Our parents wouldn’t believe it would be possible that today’s American could have happened. Our public school’s & universities are catastrophe indoctrination centers. Our once great cities are now crime invested garbage dumps. I was fortunate to have lived when American was the greatest country in the world, but that is no longer true.
Just because you were fortunate enough to pick "the right one" doesn't mean that marriage is for everyone. "It's possible to fall from a sixteen story window and live. Does that mean we should all try to fall from sixteen stories"-Tom Leykis. The odds are not in your favor.
@@benjaminstarks4071 I never said or implied marriage is for everyone. The world is a very different place place today than the world my wife and I d I grew up in.
The drawback to marrying an equal-earner (or close to equal) is it will gnaw at her own hypergamyous instincts. I experienced this in my own marriage, though my situation had several other things that went wrong, primarily her "daddy-issues." The income issue seems to be lose-lose. A harsh prenuptial agreement that favors the man, or a long-term [non-common-law marriage; boyfriend/girlfriend] situation might be the only way to fight against the income issue.
Before you get married, make your single life as amazing as possible and then decide, is it worth throwing it all away for nothing in return? If yes, go for it. But don't do it thinking your life will be better.
I am going to disagree on the financial footing being equal causing less arguments. My parents fought all the time over money issues and they basically made the same or very close to same income. IMO it is the dual income households that has destroyed marriages. This was by design BTW as the State benefits from fractured families. Not to mention it has driven up the cost of living for everyone to the point that in most cases people feel they HAVE to have both people working in order to survive. This again was by design as it doubled the tax revenues to the State.
Nothing wrong with marriage if it’s the right woman. Some men want traditional families, with a wife and a few kids. Can’t do that being a single bachelor forever.
The problem is society keeps creating these insufferable females that get worse with each generation. So your chances of finding “the right woman” are slim to none. Therefore the bachelor lifestyle brings more peace to a man’s life.
Women are unable to control their feelings. Most the time they’re getting compliments by men everywhere they are including the internet and work. When she has feelings for someone else, then she checks out on the relationship with you.todays right women tomorrow can be no women.
I'm a single father household with my 8 year old son, wife of 20 years died from aggressive cancer in 5 months time. I am lost in this world, Rich, I could use some advice. But I don't want to pay thousands, so trying to understand the answers in these videos.
Rich, this is all interesting, but I'm wondering if you really have much on widowers, and how to approach life in our late 40's? Loved my wife very much, she die died in 5 months time, and now I am raising my 8 year old son. It was very scary and rough at first, getting better at it. He is highly rates academically, and also great with other kids. But what do I do in regard to my own "needs" and "desires"? I make $180k, but can't afford your fees for coaching.
You are very wrong, my divorce in Poland took almost 6 years off my life, parental alienation is quietly approved by courts, presumption of man's guilt and by default children are wemons' property, newest laws allow to throw man out of his house for practically infinity with one false DV accusation. Co ty bredzisz?
The issue is all of the guests and conversations focus on vague general solutions. They don’t detail a path or checklist or real example walkthroughs. Like what specifically legal things should a guy do in his respective state
Only get married if you want kids. If you decide to get married, first make your wealth and accomplish your goals. Before you marry, protect the wealth you already accumulated. Marry in a community property state and make sure she works. When you divorce, it’ll probably be close to 50/50. Also, if you have kids, fight for the kids. I fought and got custody of my daughters. And it’s true, kids are better off with their fathers. I have done 30 years of personal sacrifice and research. I did everything wrong.
I may agree on most thinggs but NOT on that "teenage pregnancy" idiocy: most of our surnames - e.g. Calimera - derive from teenage pregnancies in the ancient Greece an ancient Rome and is something with with the best gynecologist agree. Recently I heard of a 10-year old supergirl who literally laughed just after giving birth, stood up and walked around - ostetrics an gynecologist were breadth-taken how great that was. And as a counter-example, more and more births are delivered throught cesarean cut by medical prescribtion as the girl is unfit, oxygen uptake is insufficient, there is overweight, etc. Do not fool me, I am a top-shelf scientist and strategist.
Witnessing Tom Brady get divorced from a beautiful woman makes me realise I will most likely never remarry (legally) again and I am okay with that scenario.
Look for the interview of the divorce attorney on Soft White Underbelly. The man states: "Marriage is an inherently negligent activity. It's like owning a lion. The likelihood of someone getting seriously hurt by this is very high."
Marriage is dead. The future is polygamous. Male marriage rate in US is around 6.9/1000 for females 16.7/1000 - so females seem to be going for same-sex in a big way. So, polygamous future with same-sex marriage, single-motherhood and sex work.
If this was 1910 than this same "marriage is a problem" would.not have been any issue. Why? It is an issue now because of the interpretation of what marriage should be due to hige influence of socialism and feminism into law nowadays especially in the west. Till now i think it's factual what i say but we could also debate if this trend was just a coincidence or part of a more broader society engineering. I think the last one. Why? Because once you lived in a communist society you understand some things better. Be good, be married, have children, defend family and choose a woman wisely. And yes, if you cannot lead or enlighten your woman because you yourself are a blind one she can and will make your life miserable. Same with children. They seek a leader and order no newage bs. Rich has in many ways a correct view on these issues but on a very few I do disagree firmly.
I will ad interesting fun fact. In pre communist Serbia marriage was considered of strategic importance militaryly, economically, spiritually. Young man who were not married had to pay extra tax. Man who were not married could not get the job that easy. Woman who was not married looked "strange". On top of that the close and extented (1-2+3+4th+ steps away) family was of immense importance. That all made it a bit more expensive to just "wonder around doing nothing" than having a family to fight for. On the other hand a woman was not allowed to, like now, make your life miserable by exiting a marriage and taking your money and children

Marriage is a man betting half his wealth that he can make a woman happy forever. I’d rather just go fishing.

My wife and I don’t remember either one of our parents ever having a serious argument much less a fight, but we were both raised in a time when the world was very different than it is today.
Husbands were the providers and wives were the homemakers. Feminism changed the roles for both husbands and wives.
You worked to make your home good and sustainable, but that was then. This time is much different. You married your wife when there were no social media that would influence here at a very young age. There are so many boys and girls on the street. Today, you can be the nicest man to your wife, but she might get bored and leave because you are too nice and boring. The girls today are much different than they were 30 years ago without the internet and social media.
@@nichollle732 I agree. Social media has changed the world in both dramatic positive and negative ways. Our parents wouldn’t believe it would be possible that today’s American could have happened. Our public school’s & universities are catastrophe indoctrination centers. Our once great cities are now crime invested garbage dumps. I was fortunate to have lived when American was the greatest country in the world, but that is no longer true.
Just because you were fortunate enough to pick "the right one" doesn't mean that marriage is for everyone. "It's possible to fall from a sixteen story window and live. Does that mean we should all try to fall from sixteen stories"-Tom Leykis. The odds are not in your favor.
@@benjaminstarks4071 I never said or implied marriage is for everyone. The world is a very different place place today than the world my wife and I d I grew up in.
@@larrys9879 understood. Thank you for your input.
Unfortunately Rich is absolutely correct 💯
sexless, lose of freedom, boredom, financial risk, domestication ( taming your achiever mindset to control you better ), what else?
The drawback to marrying an equal-earner (or close to equal) is it will gnaw at her own hypergamyous instincts. I experienced this in my own marriage, though my situation had several other things that went wrong, primarily her "daddy-issues." The income issue seems to be lose-lose. A harsh prenuptial agreement that favors the man, or a long-term [non-common-law marriage; boyfriend/girlfriend] situation might be the only way to fight against the income issue.
@RichCoopersclips, you can create playlists for each subject.
Before you get married, make your single life as amazing as possible and then decide, is it worth throwing it all away for nothing in return? If yes, go for it. But don't do it thinking your life will be better.
I am going to disagree on the financial footing being equal causing less arguments. My parents fought all the time over money issues and they basically made the same or very close to same income. IMO it is the dual income households that has destroyed marriages. This was by design BTW as the State benefits from fractured families. Not to mention it has driven up the cost of living for everyone to the point that in most cases people feel they HAVE to have both people working in order to survive. This again was by design as it doubled the tax revenues to the State.
Because of the ruling in the Lee Marvin case, California does not confuse marriage and couples who live together.
Nothing wrong with marriage if it’s the right woman. Some men want traditional families, with a wife and a few kids. Can’t do that being a single bachelor forever.
the "right woman". do you learn anything from the world around you?
The problem is society keeps creating these insufferable females that get worse with each generation. So your chances of finding “the right woman” are slim to none. Therefore the bachelor lifestyle brings more peace to a man’s life.
Every woman is "the right woman" on her wedding day. When she decides she's not happy, she'll be very different.
Women are unable to control their feelings. Most the time they’re getting compliments by men everywhere they are including the internet and work. When she has feelings for someone else, then she checks out on the relationship with you.todays right women tomorrow can be no women.
every man marries the right women at the time.
There needs to be divorce insurance for men.
I'm a single father household with my 8 year old son, wife of 20 years died from aggressive cancer in 5 months time. I am lost in this world, Rich, I could use some advice. But I don't want to pay thousands, so trying to understand the answers in these videos.
Rich, this is all interesting, but I'm wondering if you really have much on widowers, and how to approach life in our late 40's? Loved my wife very much, she die died in 5 months time, and now I am raising my 8 year old son. It was very scary and rough at first, getting better at it. He is highly rates academically, and also great with other kids. But what do I do in regard to my own "needs" and "desires"? I make $180k, but can't afford your fees for coaching.
If you are in Europe and in the EU Poland has good marriage laws.
Poland has the least single mothers in the EU.
it's still heavily biased against men
You are very wrong, my divorce in Poland took almost 6 years off my life, parental alienation is quietly approved by courts, presumption of man's guilt and by default children are wemons' property, newest laws allow to throw man out of his house for practically infinity with one false DV accusation. Co ty bredzisz?
The issue is all of the guests and conversations focus on vague general solutions. They don’t detail a path or checklist or real example walkthroughs. Like what specifically legal things should a guy do in his respective state
Move to Afghanistan
I have a woman that’s willing to get a prenup although we both are not financially in the best place. Also we have no kids, is it worth it?
6:15 aye aye lol
Only get married if you want kids. If you decide to get married, first make your wealth and accomplish your goals. Before you marry, protect the wealth you already accumulated. Marry in a community property state and make sure she works. When you divorce, it’ll probably be close to 50/50. Also, if you have kids, fight for the kids. I fought and got custody of my daughters. And it’s true, kids are better off with their fathers. I have done 30 years of personal sacrifice and research. I did everything wrong.
I may agree on most thinggs but NOT on that "teenage pregnancy" idiocy: most of our surnames - e.g. Calimera - derive from teenage pregnancies in the ancient Greece an ancient Rome and is something with with the best gynecologist agree. Recently I heard of a 10-year old supergirl who literally laughed just after giving birth, stood up and walked around - ostetrics an gynecologist were breadth-taken how great that was. And as a counter-example, more and more births are delivered throught cesarean cut by medical prescribtion as the girl is unfit, oxygen uptake is insufficient, there is overweight, etc. Do not fool me, I am a top-shelf scientist and strategist.
Witnessing Tom Brady get divorced from a beautiful woman makes me realise I will most likely never remarry (legally) again and I am okay with that scenario.
Government wants u be man when government benefits, example going war. But not manage household or beingking of his family / leader of his tribe.
Just save time, skip the marriage and go straight to the divorce.
Can I buy audiobook version somewhere ?
Look for the interview of the divorce attorney on Soft White Underbelly. The man states:
"Marriage is an inherently negligent activity. It's like owning a lion. The likelihood of someone getting seriously hurt by this is very high."
When Rich Cooper gets married, I'd think about it, until then, no way.
Then after being bored and divorcing you, and destroying countless lives, she hooks up with Ray Ray and repeats the cycle!
If I wasn't in a relationship I would have bought bitcoin in 2012.
Fck yeah
Just one!
Marriage is dead. The future is polygamous. Male marriage rate in US is around 6.9/1000 for females 16.7/1000 - so females seem to be going for same-sex in a big way. So, polygamous future with same-sex marriage, single-motherhood and sex work.
Milluons of men without women is what that means
Why is she always "The One" during wedding? And not the same "The One" durimg divorce?
Some of you guys are acting like women. You're the one that didn't see the red flags like Rich stated.
Never do marriage
True
Don’t get married. It absolutely 100% is not worth it. And the odds are it won’t work anyway.
Stay free for a life time.
Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?
I would love to get married 😢that special someone is still out there for me she has to be … remember love like not the emoji but real love
Go into it with wisdom. Look past the character they pretend to be and ask God to reveal who they truly are.
There are good women out there.
@@davidm4566 🙏 David’ appreciate your response means a lot have a great life brother
Also, be willing to be okay if divorce happens in the future.
If this was 1910 than this same "marriage is a problem" would.not have been any issue. Why?
It is an issue now because of the interpretation of what marriage should be due to hige influence of socialism and feminism into law nowadays especially in the west.
Till now i think it's factual what i say but we could also debate if this trend was just a coincidence or part of a more broader society engineering. I think the last one. Why? Because once you lived in a communist society you understand some things better.
Be good, be married, have children, defend family and choose a woman wisely. And yes, if you cannot lead or enlighten your woman because you yourself are a blind one she can and will make your life miserable. Same with children. They seek a leader and order no newage bs. Rich has in many ways a correct view on these issues but on a very few I do disagree firmly.
I will ad interesting fun fact. In pre communist Serbia marriage was considered of strategic importance militaryly, economically, spiritually. Young man who were not married had to pay extra tax. Man who were not married could not get the job that easy. Woman who was not married looked "strange". On top of that the close and extented (1-2+3+4th+ steps away) family was of immense importance. That all made it a bit more expensive to just "wonder around doing nothing" than having a family to fight for. On the other hand a woman was not allowed to, like now, make your life miserable by exiting a marriage and taking your money and children
