- 0:26Speaker 1: Family text kids to seven A five eight three three
- 0:30Speaker 1: standard data and messaging rate supply. So the question we're
- 0:33Speaker 1: asking is dak Prescott right before the wedding, they're supposed
- 0:37Speaker 1: to get married, then all of a sudden it didn't happen,
- 0:39Speaker 1: legend that she wouldn't sign the prenup. You think that
- 0:42Speaker 1: prenup is a good practice or is it just planning
- 0:44Speaker 1: to fail?
- 0:46Speaker 2: Do you think it'll just.
- 0:49Speaker 1: I think that if you are generally, if you are
- 0:54Speaker 1: mature enough to have accute some level of wealth or
- 0:58Speaker 1: some level of financial stability, that anybody who would be
- 1:02Speaker 1: in that dynamic.
- 1:02Speaker 2: Which you would understand that too, wouldn't it. I would think,
- 1:06Speaker 2: I mean they would be literally.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Enough financially literate enough to know that this guy has
- 1:10Speaker 1: something to lose, right, Yeah, right, And if you really
- 1:13Speaker 1: love somebody, if you if you really love a woman,
- 1:16Speaker 1: they really love you, then the last thing you should
- 1:18Speaker 1: do is argueable money you ain't got yet anyway, you know.
- 1:22Speaker 2: What I mean.
- 1:23Speaker 3: I think money always causes arguments.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Though.
- 1:25Speaker 3: I think whether you're married or not, if you're dating,
- 1:28Speaker 3: I think money is always an issue. Either you know,
- 1:30Speaker 3: she saying you don't have enough or he's saying you
- 1:33Speaker 3: don't have enough.
- 1:33Speaker 2: I think it always causes issue.
- 1:34Speaker 3: So I do think, as Skip said, it is a
- 1:36Speaker 3: conversation you should have before you even walk down out
- 1:39Speaker 3: on both sides, you know what I mean. We saw
- 1:40Speaker 3: what happened to Mary J. Blige, We saw what happened
- 1:42Speaker 3: to Sherry Shepherd. There are a number of examples on
- 1:47Speaker 3: both sides that show what happened. Yeah, when you when
- 1:50Speaker 3: you don't have a breen up, but when you don't
- 1:51Speaker 3: have your money, you know, situation together.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Yeah, So in the Bible, don't be unevenly yoke or uneven.
- 1:57Speaker 3: That's right, Sam, same thing.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I just I think I think there's a romantic notion,
- 2:06Speaker 1: but I remember I forgot who it was, but she
- 2:09Speaker 1: kept procrastinating, procrastinating, procrastinating. But the last minute, he went said,
- 2:13Speaker 1: and his sister happened to be in a wedding and
- 2:16Speaker 1: she was telling plans that she's just gonna get very
- 2:18Speaker 1: not signing.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Now, if you're planning not to sign it.
- 2:22Speaker 1: That that would lead me to believe if you made
- 2:24Speaker 1: that kind of plan, not that lead me to believe.
- 2:27Speaker 2: You up to something.
- 2:28Speaker 4: You're planning for a divorce.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Also, yes, so come on stop it. No, Yeah, so.
- 2:35Speaker 1: The question we're asking Dak Prescott called off the wedding
- 2:37Speaker 1: the last minute, letting you want to sign the prina.
- 2:41Speaker 1: But you think, uh, prenup is a good idea or
- 2:44Speaker 1: just or just you know, tipping the hand that you're
- 2:46Speaker 1: going to get an inevitable divorce. What do you think,
- 2:48Speaker 1: Junior's Well, actually it sounds like a coin with the
- 2:51Speaker 1: same head on both sides, because actually it is a
- 2:55Speaker 1: good idea.
- 2:56Speaker 5: In case a divorce.
- 3:00Speaker 6: I mean basically it is the same.
- 3:02Speaker 4: You don't get in your car planning on wreckon it,
- 3:04Speaker 4: but just the case right, just no, I mean it's
- 3:09Speaker 4: all about love long as.
- 3:10Speaker 5: You in there.
- 3:10Speaker 2: I take this flip of cars and you take this
- 3:12Speaker 2: buicks call.
- 3:16Speaker 4: And you keep everything you bought during But as long
- 3:19Speaker 4: as you stay, you have access to this floor.
- 3:24Speaker 2: You live in section eight houses. We're going back to it.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Went back to ashes, the ashes, dust to dust. Take
- 3:30Speaker 2: your ass to that one room room with a rumor
- 3:34Speaker 2: and your red loves It is really good these days.
- 3:36Speaker 2: So ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
- 3:40Speaker 4: I'll take the Mercedes.
- 3:41Speaker 2: You catch the bus.
- 3:43Speaker 1: Yeah, manscription socks. Look at it comes to man, he's
- 3:53Speaker 1: on the road.
- 3:54Speaker 2: I got it. Is this thing on?
- 3:55Speaker 1: I gotta the question we're asking ENTI prenup.
- 4:01Speaker 5: I believe if you need a contingency plan for marriage,
- 4:07Speaker 5: you shouldn't be marrying them. If you need to protect
- 4:10Speaker 5: yourself from your future partner who you have to lay
- 4:14Speaker 5: in bed with every night, the potential mother or father
- 4:17Speaker 5: of your children, you shouldn't be marrying them. I understand
- 4:20Speaker 5: the thought process behind it, But if you're entering into
- 4:23Speaker 5: like a covenant with an individual who quite literally controls
- 4:27Speaker 5: your life, you will be asleep next to them every
- 4:31Speaker 5: single night.
- 4:32Speaker 2: They control whether you live or you die.
- 4:35Speaker 5: If you are in the hospital on life support, they
- 4:37Speaker 5: dictate if the doctor pulsy plug or does not and
- 4:41Speaker 5: you want to prenup?
- 4:43Speaker 2: Dak pres got. Of course it is. They called up
- 4:45Speaker 2: the way. We are very close to it.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Do you think because allegedly she went signed a prenup,
- 4:49Speaker 1: do you think a prenup is a good idea of
- 4:51Speaker 1: just planning to get divorced? That's the question we post.
- 4:54Speaker 1: So you were going to write to the phones.
- 4:55Speaker 7: I really praise him for calling out that divorce because
- 5:00Speaker 7: if she really loved him, she would have signed a prenup.
- 5:03Speaker 7: And you got so many ladies out here today, they
- 5:05Speaker 7: just totally don't gold digits. It's so greedy. I mean,
- 5:09Speaker 7: her mom haven't taught her anything, Because how you gonna
- 5:12Speaker 7: walk away from two hundred and fifty million dollars that
- 5:15Speaker 7: your man is going to be making and you weren't
- 5:18Speaker 7: gonna be right there with him sharing it. So, I mean,
- 5:22Speaker 7: you know that's crazy.
- 5:23Speaker 6: If I was him, I would have walked away.
- 5:25Speaker 7: Too, finding somebody that loved him for him and not
- 5:28Speaker 7: for his money. Because these women's are gold diggers and
- 5:31Speaker 7: all they're trying to do is get your money. That's
- 5:33Speaker 7: kind of sad, and that kind of proves that she
- 5:36Speaker 7: don't really love him, because you don't let love walk
- 5:38Speaker 7: away like that. I don't care if he wasn't getting
- 5:41Speaker 7: two hundred and fifty dollars.
- 5:43Speaker 8: If that is a bad legs, why would you care
- 5:45Speaker 8: about it to sign a prenup breathing or not. If
- 5:48Speaker 8: it ain't about the money, you love him or you
- 5:50Speaker 8: love her, there ask you no time with shness. So
- 5:54Speaker 8: that mean if you got came with shatnay, it's more
- 5:57Speaker 8: about the money than love.
- 6:00Speaker 9: So I don't feel there's anything wrong with insuring your wealth.
- 6:04Speaker 9: It's protected proof through a prenup.
- 6:06Speaker 10: I myself have one and my partner had no, which
- 6:09Speaker 10: is also my husband now had no problem signing it.
- 6:13Speaker 10: A cleanup just really ensures your wealth, and it is
- 6:16Speaker 10: if you love the person that much.
- 6:18Speaker 6: You'll sign it.
- 6:19Speaker 9: There's so in my cleanup after so many years that
- 6:22Speaker 9: passed per like ten twelve years or well, I can't
- 6:26Speaker 9: remember exactly what's in there, but the amount increases, so
- 6:30Speaker 9: you know it's and it's also covered in my irrevocable
- 6:33Speaker 9: trust account.
- 6:34Speaker 11: The question is Dak should have really did like a
- 6:38Speaker 11: dating contract after the first child. He should have basically said,
- 6:42Speaker 11: you know, I need a DNA test on their mother kids,
- 6:45Speaker 11: and he should have had a contract because she go
- 6:47Speaker 11: killing with child support if she don't get that prenup,
- 6:51Speaker 11: or she don't get married. Either way, but the best
- 6:53Speaker 11: of luck to the brothers.
- 6:54Speaker 1: So the question we're asking, of course, Zach Prescott calls
- 6:58Speaker 1: over as wedd at the last minute. Do you think
- 7:01Speaker 1: a prenup is good idea? Is it just planning to
- 7:03Speaker 1: get divorced? That is the question we posed to you.
- 7:05Speaker 2: You said, I come from the old school.
- 7:09Speaker 12: Our people. When we married, we didn't have to our parents,
- 7:13Speaker 12: our grandparents, our great grandparents, didn't have nothing or knew
- 7:18Speaker 12: nothing about no prenuptial agreement. We married, we made a commitment,
- 7:24Speaker 12: we took the viow. What was yours was mine, What
- 7:29Speaker 12: was mine was yours. Now in this date you got
- 7:34Speaker 12: it where you know, you got all these big time people.
- 7:38Speaker 12: They making all of this money and they want to
- 7:42Speaker 12: make sure that that money is protected. I can't understand that.
- 7:47Speaker 12: But if you don't take a vow and you go
- 7:50Speaker 12: into matrimony and you married, and you got to have
- 7:54Speaker 12: a piece of paper to tell you, oh, well, if
- 7:58Speaker 12: don't do this or we break up, then this is
- 8:01Speaker 12: mine and this is yours. Well, you know what, you
- 8:05Speaker 12: should have never gone into the relationship. If you were
- 8:08Speaker 12: not sacred in the marriage, then you should have never
- 8:12Speaker 12: gotten married.
- 8:14Speaker 6: Well, uh, he he did the right thing by breaking
- 8:17Speaker 6: it off. And also, hey, look at Michael George's prenup.
- 8:21Speaker 6: She got she she's well off yep, with both wives.
- 8:26Speaker 6: So he dodged the bullet right there. Saw Michael Jordan's
- 8:29Speaker 6: prenup where his wife now actually gets. Uh, she she
- 8:33Speaker 6: gets she gets some nice money and and uh but
- 8:35Speaker 6: you look it up, you'll see what what she gets.
- 8:38Speaker 6: If there should have if there was something in that
- 8:40Speaker 6: for she should have just went ahead and married and
- 8:43Speaker 6: went from there. Because actually I helped people with prenups.
- 8:46Speaker 6: He should have went ahead, and I said nothing. But
- 8:48Speaker 6: you know, you'll see her down the road with another
- 8:50Speaker 6: teammate or NFL player who who don't mind her not signing.
- 8:55Speaker 13: Oh, absolutely, prenup all the way. Protect yourself. They'll see
- 9:00Speaker 13: whoever got the most money. Protect yourself by money, No brainer.
- 9:05Speaker 13: DA did the right thing. Absolutely absolutely.
- 9:08Speaker 14: I think that pre nomsaw absolutely neroussard. Just like testing
- 9:13Speaker 14: your babies, have you all of you your children tested
- 9:16Speaker 14: at birth? I think it's an absolutely necessity nowadays.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Absolutely, we're gonna find out what life is like on
- 9:24Speaker 1: the art. But that boy trades under deal ugually show.
- 9:26Speaker 1: Now here's a quick gap day fan. We're at nineteen

- 10:15Speaker 4: This is that boy tray back again when that episode
- 10:18Speaker 4: of My Life on the arm, and so I look
- 10:20Speaker 4: at HBCU life. Man, I'm counting down till I am
- 10:24Speaker 4: boarding on that plane and headed out to California.
- 10:28Speaker 2: But for right now, I got locked in and complete
- 10:32Speaker 2: my exams.
- 10:33Speaker 4: In all my mid term assignments, because that is the
- 10:36Speaker 4: time we are on. Right now, it is officially halftime
- 10:39Speaker 4: of this semester, and I'm so ready for a sub
- 10:44Speaker 4: but we can't. There's no substitute. This is not a
- 10:48Speaker 4: team sport. I need to lock in, and that's exactly
- 10:52Speaker 4: what I'm doing. I'm not gonna lie with.
- 10:54Speaker 2: All of my classes, all of my assignments, all of
- 10:57Speaker 2: my exams.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Man, I've been zeroed in. I've been so focused on
- 11:03Speaker 4: studying and all that bull and being on top of
- 11:07Speaker 4: my assignments, being real detail oriented and thorough with all
- 11:10Speaker 4: that stuff, because I got no choice.
- 11:13Speaker 2: I need to pass all my classes. Not only passed,
- 11:17Speaker 2: but I want to kill it, man, I want to
- 11:20Speaker 2: a's across the board.
- 11:22Speaker 4: That's my own pressure that I put on myself because
- 11:26Speaker 4: this semester around, my mother has said something that she
- 11:29Speaker 4: has never said before. She's like, Trey, you're not going
- 11:33Speaker 4: to grad school, or at least you have told us
- 11:35Speaker 4: you don't want to go to grad school. Just get seized,
- 11:38Speaker 4: get that degree, get the job done, and get on
- 11:42Speaker 4: with it. As soon as I heard her say that,
- 11:45Speaker 4: I felt the biggest weight being lifted off my shoulders.
- 11:49Speaker 2: Dude, I needed that at this point in the semestery.
- 11:51Speaker 2: I put a lot of pressure on myself.
- 11:53Speaker 4: This time around, just in terms of getting all my
- 11:57Speaker 4: class stuff done, being on top graduation stuff, all this,
- 12:02Speaker 4: and the third that here my mom say, get that degree,
- 12:07Speaker 4: Get the job done and get on with it.

- 12:20Speaker 4: that pressure man and being stressed free going into all
- 12:24Speaker 4: of these exams and writing these essays just and not
- 12:29Speaker 4: having to worry about Yo.
