Nobody plans to get divorced. ๐
That's exactly the problem. ๐
In Malaysia, 60,457 divorces were recorded in 2024. ๐ That's 165 families every single day; ๐๏ธ each one probably said "this won't happen to us" when they got married. ๐
This weekend, I want you to watch Marriage Story on Netflix. ๐ฌ๐ฟ I think this is the most financially honest film about divorce ever made. ๐
Not because it's depressing. ๐ซ But because in two hours, it will show you more clearly than any financial textbook ๐ what happens to everything you've built together when a marriage ends without a plan. ๐๏ธ
A contested divorce in Malaysia costs between RM43,000 and RM145,000, conservatively. ๐ธ That's legal fees on both sides. โ๏ธ Court costs. ๐๏ธ Separate housing during proceedings. ๐ A custody evaluator. ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Asset valuation. ๐ Career disruption. ๐ The financial damage is not inevitable. But it does require a plan. ๐
I work with couples and individuals who want to make sure that whatever happens in life, their finances are structured to protect both people and the family they're raising. ๐ก๏ธ Not a divorce plan. A life plan. โจ
