People take GMB and HOH too seriously. It’s tough trying to make it on your own. If you’ve got someone to support you financially and emotionally, it takes a huge weight off your shoulders.

There are success stories as well as horror stories. You look at most successful entrepreneurs, they had their wives/gfs (at the time at least) with them every step of the way.

Marriage will only leave you unfocused if you’re with the wrong person.

Most successful men in history had wives. This is just an entertainer spitting some bullshyt.

I’m not even pro-marriage but come on. If you can find a good woman to build with, who will also support you in your career goals and choices, then marriage could not only focus you but be beneficial. Again, it’s a big IF.
This is partially correct.

A woman who stands by you as you are making money is going to eventually want part of that. She considers herself an investor.

Ted talking in show business as a male singer. Not your average breh. When Usher got married especially to that George Wallace looking woman. His sells went the fukk down.
Oh, if he’s strictly referring to showbiz then he’s right.

shyt, if you’re in a relationship, you’re technically both investing in each other. No smart woman is gonna support a bum who has no future prospects, nor would I expect her to.

He's partially right, but there are a ton of pro athletes kids who didn't see their father all the time due to work, but they turned out fine.

If you have a business and its booming, gotta put food on the table right?
