There are many Kenyans who have divorced and remarried.
Different reasons could make your second marriage collapse after months of merry.
You must learn from your past mistakes if you want to be happy.
Some mistakes you make in your second marriage could bring the relationship down.
Never repeat these five money mistakes when you remarry:
1. Not changing your account beneficiaries
A new marriage comes with new things.
Change the beneficiaries of your resources when you decide to remarry.
The change will be for your own good when things fall apart.
2. Forgetting to manage your old resources
A new marriage could derail your focus.
Keep working towards your financial goals even after remarrying.
Do not be blinded by love to forget your goals in life.
3. Not getting a prenuptial agreement
Most partners forget to take prenuptial agreements when they are entering their second marriages.
Never ignore this agreement if you are remarrying someone who will bring some assets into the relationship.
You need to come up with clear terms and conditions before you settle down.
In case the second marriage doesn’t work, it will become easier to part ways.
4. Keeping financial secrets
Some people opt to keep their financial secrets away from their partners when they remarry.
Your man or woman needs to know everything about you.
The secrets can end up haunting you in the second marriage.
The secret cards could also bridge mistrust in the marriage.
5. Trying old financial strategies
Do not waste time trying to reapply moves that didn’t work.
A change is necessary if you realise one tactic failed to work in your second marriage.
Doing the same thing repeatedly won’t take you anywhere. Learn new tricks.#MyLifestyle
