You can be really good at one thing, you can be really smart with books, but if you don't have an idea of all the things in life that are just important, enough to know to even hire the right people, it can be a detriment.

And he said, if there's one thing I will make sure that you learn for the rest of your life is that you understand numbers. You understand your numbers enough so that if you work with someone, you know how to hire them. It's kind of like a sommelier. You don't have to be a sommelier to pick a good bottle of wine.

But if you have a sommelier at a restaurant ordering for you, you got to know enough to make sure that you're not getting taken advantage of. And so he showed me at 16, I saw his whole portfolio, every dollar he had, every dollar was my step grandmother at the time that she had. He talked to me about what will happen when he dies. This will go to your mom. This will go to your aunt.

This will go to your step grandma. And it was that transparency that made me, it just all clicked. I was like, I'm not going to be afraid of numbers. I'm going to step into them. And so from that day on, I just always had an infatuation with numbers, the transparency behind them and what we can learn from them.

Oh, my gosh. Well, I mean, the biggest discovery, especially when you think about love and money, is that the conversations aren't being had. And when people try to step into the conversations, they are getting terrible responses. And as a result of that, we inherently as animals are saying we're not going to have conversations because when we step into them, it hurts.

But the reality is the proof is always in the numbers. 50% of relationships, married or cohabitating, don't feel comfortable talking about money. Of the 50% that do feel comfortable talking about them, 75% of them say it leads to material tension. So you have 50% of people that won't talk about it. You take the group that does, 75% of them saying it's leading to tension.

Now we talk about the love aspect. That group, that small group that feels like they can talk about money and it leads attention, over half of them when surveyed said that it had led to massively decreased intimacy. And money reasons are the number two reason behind divorce. So the thing is, is that we continue to skirt. We continue to avoid the conversation. We continue to step around it.
