All right. Today's question, Jade, comes from Anthony in California. I'll read it to you.

I got married three years ago with a pre-up. My wife is a pharmacist. She makes around 200,000 a year.

I'm a teacher bringing home 80,000 a year. She owned a home before we got married. That's worth $900,000. I know that

the house is not mine, and I have no rights to it. I contribute $1,700 a month to household expenses,

1:25.7

Yeah.

1:26.2

I mean, I think so.

1:27.4

I mean, she's the one that, I mean, I think so. I mean,

1:27.7

she's the one that, I mean, I'm not, I'm not making judgment calls here. I'm just reading what the

1:32.0

paper says. She's the one that makes more money. She's the one that owns the house worth 900,000.
