Episode 7
We don’t always think about it this way, but marriage isn’t just about love, the dress, and the big day — it’s also a legal and financial contract. And the truth is, the marriage contract you choose can shape your financial journey in ways you may not even realise.
In this episode of the Santam Insure Your Future Money Bootcamp, Maya Fisher-French and I sit down with attorney and mediator, Lerato Seroke, to unpack everything you need to know before (and after) saying “I do.”
Here’s what we discuss:
💡 Common law marriage in South Africa
💡 The 3 types of marital contracts — and what makes them different
💡 What happens to your assets and debts depending on your marriage regime
💡 Why documentation is your best friend (especially in customary marriages)
💡 How contracts can actually strengthen, not weaken, your relationship
I even share why I personally chose to marry out of community of property without accrual — and how that decision has given me freedom and clarity in my financial journey.
This conversation is not about taking the romance out of marriage — it’s about making sure your love is protected and your future is secure.
