Falling in love, getting married and spending the rest of your life together with someone can be one of the most magical things in the world. But when the matter of money gets involved, things can get well… complicated. 

What was once a dream can very quickly become a nightmare and reveal something much more sinister. Which is what Jennifer experienced first-hand. 

At the start of their marriage, Jennifer and her husband were on the same page on everything. Everything except how they were going to share their money. 

In this episode, Jennifer shares the journey of their relationship and how things took a turn for the worse, and how amidst the calamity she figured out how not to lose everything. Money may not be everything, but it sure as hell makes a difference who you share it with.

This is Moneywise, a podcast where host Sam Parr is joined by high-net-worth guests to explore exclusive insights into personal finance and lifestyle tailored for other high-net-worth people, or those on their way. They'll get radically transparent about the numbers, revealing things like their burn rates, portfolios, and spending habits.
