Pre-Nuptial, Nuptial and Post-Nuptial Planning
I recently finished a course that was titled, “Managing & Resolving Conflict to Discover the Wonders of Collaboration”. As a Chartered Financial Divorce Specialist, my job, as a financial neutral, is to help bring about financial fairness in a separation and divorce.
Many people have pre-conceived beliefs as to how the world works. They assume that all their experiences and education make up the sum of all wisdom on any subject. These beliefs often create an inflexible or rigid “line in the sand” which often results in a win-lose outcome. But what if we can seek and achieve win-win outcomes?
Many of us enter marriage with the belief that it will be “till death do us part”. For about 50% of the population that marry, this vow holds true. For the rest of the population that either marry or live common-law, the splitting of accumulated wealth, possessions and family units is often fraught with disappointment, anger and gamesmanship. Why? In my opinion, it is because people either do not have good models of problem-solving techniques or fail to use them appropriately. It is for these reasons, that negotiating for yourself is often a bad idea.
My role, as a financial neutral, is to use collaborative problem-solving methods to achieve a win-win outcome. If you wish to engage me, either in your pre-nuptial, nuptial or post-nuptial planning, please fill out the contact form in my website.
Note: I am in favour of marriage! Healthy and happy families are the primary units of a strong and vital society and should be encouraged to thrive by everyone… individuals, families, churches, clubs and all levels of government.
