No one goes in to a marriage hoping that it’ll fail, but statistics don’t lie, and around half of all marriages end in divorce. With those odds, wouldn’t you want to be protected? Conversations around money and obligation can be uncomfortable, but they’re so important to have before long-term commitment. Once upon a time, we never understood the need for prenups, but life is complicated and shit happens. It’s better to plan for the worst and hope for the best, than to ignore the possibility that things could go wrong and be caught unaware when they do.

Never say never on the internet because if you make a public claim about one thing and then eventually change your mind, someone out there named Susan is going to be VERY mad at you. (No offense to all the Susans out there, we’re sure most of you are normal.) When people follow you for one opinion you hold or attribute you have, it can be hard to come to terms with any life changes you make—especially if you’ve built a business on said attribute or opinion. We have enough life experience now to know that the second we decide how we feel about something, we inevitably change our minds. Maybe the only way to get around it all is just acknowledging that we don’t know anything, ever. This way, we don’t have to upset Susan.

The world might be run by assholes and idiots, but that doesn’t make us powerless! Y’all, this is the Best Life, and living the Best Life means realizing that even in the worst situations, we still have influence over our own lives. So yeah, the world is run by assholes and idiots, but that’s nothing new. And since we can’t get rid of the assholes and idiots, it’s up to us to make a positive impact within our circles. We'll keep making the world less shitty, one step at a time.
