Interesting thread.
So what breaks up the marriages then? Al and others?
I had a very supportive wife when I started the business and it was not a bad but not great marriage
when things start going well I felt compelled to keep the over head down so im doing all the work myself
so i was in the office at 4 or 5 in the morning and getting home about 6, then I found my drinking problem became huge as I was pouring down plenty of vodka each night before back up again early doors next morning
then when the money starts coming in, she wanted to spend it without working very hard at her own job. I wanted the money to stay in the business and use it as a cushion, she wanted to spend it
we never had money discussions at home until we had more than we were use to
so marriage 1 ended
then during the recession I married the next girl I quite liked without really dating for a while
and that marriage is about to end with a final divorce next week
Ive owned my own business now for 9 years and I think after about 7 or 8 you probably have a fair handle on things by then so relationships should be easier to handle
