Iman Shumpert said in a recent interview that he will never enter another marriage because marriage failed him and left him with nothing. 💔
🗣️ Iman Shumpert: "When I was married, I trusted my wife with everything. I loved her, so I put all my money into a joint account because I believed we were building a future together. I never imagined things would end the way they did."
"After our divorce was finalized, I had to give up a huge part of what I worked so hard for. She received over $25 million in cash and assets, including $10 million in cash, four houses worth around $10 million, a Maybach, a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and even a tour bus."
"On top of that, I pay $8,000 every month in child support, and I also cover our children's school fees and medical expenses. She also kept her own businesses."
"When everything was settled, I was left with about $2 million and no house. Looking back, I realize I made some financial decisions I probably shouldn't have. It's a hard lesson, but one I've had to live with."
@deonhurr@GP_oluwapelumi2 And that's why prenups exist. If someone feels strongly about protecting their assets, that should be addressed before marriage, not after. Two adults entered an agreement, and the terms of that agreement matter.
@fringe53@GP_oluwapelumi2 You're entitled to your opinion, but the details of their private lives and assumptions about the future don't change the fact that agreements were made. Two adults entered into a marriage, and two adults are responsible for the choices they make.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Fuck all this you saying , no one deserves this , “she kept her own businesses “ you take everything from one man just to be with another man who also didn’t last ?
@AMP_FIELDVISION@GP_oluwapelumi2 That's why marriage requires conversations & protecting yourself before making that commitment. Both people take risks when they marry. A prenup exists so expectations, assets, and responsibilities are discussed before emotions and circumstances change.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Even if you don’t cheat and the women wants divorce later, men have to pay for the woman aging and depreciating value due to men wanting younger women and harder for women to find someone else. Both took the risk but it’s called “she gave best years of her life”.
@JS1554404933700@GP_oluwapelumi2 That's exactly why you protect yourself before the marriage. A prenup exists so both people can decide what happens with their assets ahead of time. Marriage is a partnership, but the terms of that partnership should be understood and agreed upon before you enter it.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Marriage being a bad investment has nothing to do with rather you cheat or not. It's just a bad investment to work as hard as you did and give it away to someone who didn't earn it and in many cases cannot properly maintain it. That's his true mistake.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 If you wasn’t with me shooting in the gym you cant get shit. That blood sweat and tears that I put in day in and day out should not be allowed to you. I’ll take care of my kids leave you the house and car thats about it.
@dunkthedeuce@GP_oluwapelumi2 He also didn't have to sign the prenuptial agreement if he didn't agree with the terms. That's the purpose of having those conversations before marriage. You can't enter an agreement and then blame the agreement when the terms you accepted come into play.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 That is marriage failing, bc it’s taking advantage of people who have money, temptation, testosterone, and more … and she met him like that so idk why she would try to change him
@LeakLeakJr@GP_oluwapelumi2 Yes, cheating is wrong, but that's where a prenup comes into play. Both people had the opportunity to review the terms, get legal advice, and ask questions before signing. He chose to sign it. When you agree to a contract, you have to accept the terms that come with it.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Cheating while married is wrong but the system fucked up when he was out there working out and grinding to achieve his nba dream and for her to take all that is crazy
@LacosteTajhai@yug3nstrivia@AyooVonterio@GP_oluwapelumi2 A prenup isn't a "Black woman" issue. It's a financial conversation that any two adults can have before marriage. The right person will be willing to discuss protecting both parties, because transparency and planning matter.
@yomomma6f@The_Real_Vegass@GP_oluwapelumi2 No expert needed. It's communication. Adults in relationships have conversations, set boundaries, and make choices. If something isn't working, you address it or you leave. You don't betray an agreement and then act like you had no options.
@_DemondSam@GP_oluwapelumi2 Never said that. The point is that adults make decisions, and those decisions can have consequences. That's why you read agreements carefully, get legal advice, and understand what you're signing before you commit.
@AwsohmFinancial@GP_oluwapelumi2 If a woman cheats, the same accountability should apply. This isn’t about men vs. women. It's about choices, agreements, and both people understanding what they signed up for.
@YoungOGBurner12@GP_oluwapelumi2 Agreed, cheating shouldn't automatically be a payday. But if you're entering a marriage, you should also protect yourself with a prenup and understand the terms before you sign. Both people have a responsibility to know what they're agreeing to.
@AyooVonterio@GP_oluwapelumi2 And that's why men should always protect themselves. That's what prenuptial agreements are for. Protect yourself and your assets.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Cheating has nothing to do with it. A woman can wake up and simply say she doesn’t want to be married and this would still be the reality for men faithful or not
@CO_SportsPage@GP_oluwapelumi2 The financial outcome comes from the agreements, assets, and laws involved. And if a woman violates a similar agreement, the same standard should apply.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 So it should cost him everything hes ever made? Lmao you ladies are fuckin wild. She should get a million bucks and a house at MAX. She has her own business.
@watsongono@GP_oluwapelumi2 Money earned before the marriage is generally treated differently from assets acquired during the marriage. The question is what was considered marital property and what was covered by their agreements.
@playonplayer@GP_oluwapelumi2 And you shouldn't... But if you do decide to get married, protect yourself and your assets by getting a prenuptial agreement that clearly outlines expectations and terms. That's the whole purpose of having one. Go into it informed, not fearful.
@iceeubaby@GP_oluwapelumi2 Marriage is a bunch of bullshit that never favors the one that’s bringing home the bacon!!!! After men seeing so many failed marriages and men getting taken to the cleaners. Ain’t no way I’m going to put myself in that predicament!!!!
