Understanding Prenups with Aaron Thomas
Keep What You Earn
10/03/23 • 37 min
As with most things in life, marriage is all about communication, understanding and setting the right expectations with your partner. One of the ways to do that is literally on paper with a prenuptial agreement, aka a prenup. Today on the show we will discuss what prenups are designed to do, how to have an effective agreement with your spouse and the unique aspects of how to approach prenups as business owners.
As a three-time winner of Atlanta's Best Divorce Attorney, Aaron Thomas is one of the nation's top experts in family law issues. He is a 2002 graduate of Harvard Law School, and his firm Aaron Thomas Law, was recognized by peers as one of the fastest growing family law firms in the state of Georgia.
With clients ranging from NBA hall of famers and Superbowl winners to Grammy award winning artists, Aaron has extensive experience representing his clients in a range of family law matters, including divorce, custody, child support, and prenuptial and postnuptial agreements.
As founder of Prenups.com, Aaron is widely viewed as the go-to source for writing fair prenups. He carries a fundamental belief that establishing a solid financial foundation during engagement can prevent many common martial disputes, and that fair prenups help create happy marriages.

Pricing Blunders That Could Cost You Thousands
Keep What You Earn
02/15/24 • 15 min
Articulating your offerings precisely can transform the trajectory of your business. It serves a dual purpose: it enlightens your existing customers about the extent of your services, including what falls outside your scope, and it acts as a magnet for potential new clients. When consumers are contemplating a purchase, their priority is to have a comprehensive understanding of what their investment entails, making transparency from the get-go absolutely essential.
Conversely, being forthright about what you provide is advantageous for you as the provider. Often, we might extend ourselves beyond the agreed terms out of goodwill or because a task appears straightforward. Yet, establishing firm boundaries can markedly enhance your professional relationships and pave the way for additional offerings. Sticking to your defined services can foster a mutually beneficial dynamic between you and your clientele.
What you'll hear in this episode:
[1:15] What's causing the blurred lines around your service offerings?
[2:00] Could your unclear communication be turning what should be explicit offers into implicit ones?
[7:32] It's crucial to inform your clients about the entire range of available services, including what's part of the package.
[9:40] Exercise caution when breaking down your services into itemized costs.

How Crypto is Changing How We Do Business Forever with Uch Anyanwu
Keep What You Earn
06/16/22 • 49 min
With any paradigm shift or change in the society that we live in, there's going to be resistance. One of our key instincts as humans is to resist change whether we know it or not.
One of the key things that is changing is the environment around cryptocurrency, NFTs, other things of that sort. I think it's become more prominent as a topic. We're even talking about it on the show, right? It's not really part of the underground world anymore and with that comes a responsibility for all of us to educate ourselves. I am so excited to share this interview with Uch Anyanwu to help us all become more educated on these topics.
Uch is an expert in crypto who became an expert in crypto because he realized that was what was needed of him. He's currently helping working professionals overcome this lack of knowledge around stocks and Bitcoin by teaching them simple easy-to-understand lessons. He’s the author of "10 Ways For You To Win the Stock Market," a book that makes being in the financial markets easy to understand. He has been featured in the NY Post, Shortlist Dubai, and BBC Radio 1.
I just love his mission around simplifying financial concepts for anyone to be able to digest and self-educate.
