The Wedding Tax: Why "I Do" is the Most Expensive Lie in Finance

Описание: Emily and Jake had a "perfect" $34,000 wedding. Two years later, they’re in marriage counseling because they’re still paying for the cake, the flowers, and the filet mignon at 9.5% interest.

In this video, we deconstruct the "Wedding Industrial Complex." I spent months auditing the "Wedding Tax"—the 70% markup vendors charge just for using the word "wedding"—and the Emory University study that proves a correlation between big spending and divorce. We look at why parental pressure is a debt trap and how to celebrate your love without bankrupting your future.

📉 THE TRAP: You aren't paying for a celebration; you're paying for a performance. The wedding industry exploits your emotional vulnerability to sell you a "perfect day" that poisons your "perfect life."
