Money, Relationships and the Cost of ‘We’

Deskripsi

“Love” is easy to talk about, but what does “We” actually cost? In this episode, Just Ivy Africa sits down with Jacob Aliet, author of Unplugged, and Dianah Murethi, a private wealth lawyer, to unpack the real financial dynamics behind relationships. From dating to marriage and even divorce, we explore how money quietly shapes power, ownership, and decision-making between partners. Because when everything is going well, love feels simple. But when things fall apart, the question changes. “The question is not who shall be given this property… the question is to whom does this property belong.”  In this episode, we break down: • The hidden financial mistakes people make in relationships • Why love doesn’t automatically mean ownership • The difference between contribution and entitlement • How the law actually views money, property, and marriage in Kenya • The risks of building wealth together without structure • Why many people walk away from relationships with nothing Join the conversation: If your relationship ended today, would you know what you actually own?
