Rapper and “marriage counselor” Gucci Mane shared his secret to keeping his wife happy.
In a video clip, Gucci was asked how he kept his wife, Keyshia Ka’Oir, happy. Gucci quickly answered, “It’s all about the money.”
Gucci’s answer goes against the typical saying that “money can’t buy happiness” or The Beatles song, “Can’t Buy Me Love.”
But when the rapper expounded on his seemingly shallow answer, it added more depth. He clarified that his response was personal.
“I would have never gotten married if I wasn’t financially well off,” Gucci said. “Since I was little, I wanted to be rich, and I wanted to be married.”
Gucci said that love wasn’t a factor in him getting married because he didn’t want to be financially incompetent when sharing his life with someone.
“If you ain’t got no money, why would you even want to be married? I would never want to be broke and married,” he said. “you want to be in love, but if you don’t got no money, what you gonna pay the bills with?”
Gucci denied that he was talking about ensuring his wife was happy through gifts. He spoke the truth about how money problems can cause both parties in the marriage to become unhappy and add stress. Gucci didn’t want financial pressure in his marriage.
“How you gonna be happy if you worry about all these things? How are you gonna be happy with somebody? I wouldn’t be happy.”
The “Wake Up in the Sky” rapper and Keyshia are “both loaded” and don’t have to worry about money issues.
Happy wife, happy life. #GucciMane says one of the reasons he and Keyshia Ka’Oir have a successful marriage is a whole lot of dough. According to the rapper, they’re both “loaded,” and having two incomes alleviates pressure. *Thoughts?*👇🏾(🎥: @real923la) pic.twitter.com/c5jPW31L4r
