You've talked about in the past where you had to go on tour to pay alimony. Yeah, to your ex husband. I don't know if the numbers correct not Google. I saw it was like thirty thousand a month or something like that.
Yeah, correct us if we're wrong.
So, looking back on it in hindsight, what would you have done differently when you first got married in terms of shielding your assets?
I would have never let a person have that much power over my money, my life, over anything ever again, So I would. I would Now I'm learning, I'm in control of my business, I'm in control of my life, and it's mandatory that I learn more about finance business, you know, so I don't ever have to be robbed again by you know, maybe somebody you think you can trust, you know what I mean.
So do you think that it was more so just a lack of education somebody playing on you not knowing things.
And then perfectly, yes, it was a lack of education, and it also was just trusting people to help you when you don't know and you hope that they're going to help you and not steal from you and lie to you, and and and and and just trying to take control over your life. So yeah, exactly. You hope that people would help you when you don't know, and a lot of times what happened to me, They rob you,
you know. So it's best to get education so you don't have to depend on anybody to control your money or to help you, you know, you know, to to help you keep your money in a safe place.
You know what I'm saying, Yeah.
Keeping your I mean, we spoke about this a little bit earlier before you came on. It's important to make money, but it's more important to keep the money.

It's paying taxes.
Yes, so so check it out.

But I mean I owed millions, millions, like hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes, and I think, right, you know, I'm sorry, I lost my train of.
Thought, go back to it. So I was right, we were gonna get to that. So the lack of education around that. Right as you're getting this large sum of money you accumulating, give how are we even getting educated?

So I'm like, pay my pay pay my business, pay my payroll, pay my taxes, pay my times, any all of that money. I don't even want to see it because it doesn't belong to me. And that's how I was moving period. I was moving like that period. But nobody listened to me. When I was married. I was like, pay my taxes, pay my times, do everything, and then you know, they didn't listen to me. So you know, but he was in control of everything, so he wasn't gonna you know, we don't want to do all of that,
but you know that's that's how I do. Those things are important to me. Payroll, taxes, times, anything that. You know, if anyone's doing a service, you have to pay them for it, you know, and you have to call people back. You know, sometimes people just want to you know what, Okay, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna get back to you. It's not always so much about you know, people vendors beating your door down because you know they're just being aggravated.
They just want to know that you are acknowledging them if you owe them money. You understand what I'm saying. So if you don't call people back, you know, it creates a bad image for you. It creates, you know, chatter that you don't do handle do business properly. You understand what I'm saying. So, yeah, those things are important to me. Now.
So this is strength of a Woman's Festival. And a lot of times when we think about pre numps, it's always from a man's perspective, like a man wants his wife to sign a pre numb before they get married because he has more money. But there's not always the case. Sometimes in your situation, the woman could be the breadwinner
or the woman can have more money. So what are your thoughts on pre numps and how would you approach you or what advice would you give as far as for a woman that may be wealthy all off and they're looking to get married.
Get a pre nump. Because I didn't have one, and that's why I was in I ended up having to just give everything away because it's so let me just speak, it's so whack right now that men, you know, can come at you and get and you know, I'm young, and get alimony. So when I was getting a divorce, I was like, you mean to tell me I got to pay him? And he cheated and he lied and he stolen. You know, not to get all petty, but
you know what I'm saying. You mean, I gotta pay him for cheating and lying to me and ruining my life. So yeah, and and the lord is you have to you know, so I say, get a pre nup, cover yourself up.
Yeah, I'm telling you men this crazy. My wife has here, So baby, I love you.
