Lose Weight, Lose Your Wife!
Jared Fogle, made famous by losing over 245 pounds on the “Subway Diet,” recently divorced his wife of six years. Divorces happen all the time (more often than not, these days), but what makes this interesting is the whopping settlement that Mr. Fogle’s soon-to-be ex-wife, Elizabeth, will receive. Read more after the jump…
The Bosh reports that Elizabeth will receive $230,000 from Jared Fogle Inc. and 60% of the revenues from the Jared’s publishing deal for his autobiography.
I hope we can all learn from Mr. Fogle. No matter what your station in life is now, if you plan to get married, sign a prenuptial agreement! Sure, you may be a minimum-wage-making average Joe (or Joanne) now, but you never know what fortunes the future may bring to you.
Let’s hope that Jarred learns from his past, should he decide to marry one of the “series of women” that he’s been spotted with lately.

Actually, a prenuptial agreement only protects your assets that you have going into your marriage. Any money you earn after you are married is legally shared with your husband/wife. How it is split up after the marriage is disolved often is only a reflection of how good their respective lawyers are (obviously hers are pretty good). So, if he had signed a prenup, it would have only saved him from sharing the profits he made from the Subway ads he shot that first year, right before he got married.
