For richer or not at all

07.05.21 Pt 1 - The team delves into relationships, and the question of whether they build you or destroy you. In search of answers, and in an extremely unscientific correlation, they also bring up the fact that of top 10 richest people in the world, 7 are divorced. Coincidence…?
