In 2023, Belle Burden, a granddaughter of Babe Paley, published an essay in the New York Times Modern Love column called, "Was I Married to a Stranger?" It's a question a lot of people ask themselves after a divorce, so the column went very viral and a book deal followed. Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage published in January, and quickly became the must-read book of 2026. It's part processing and part cautionary tale, especially to women, about being active players in their own finances, and clear about their marital finances. Alicia explores the story and some of the pushback it has received.  Get your copy: Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage (bookshop.org) Sponsors Upgrade your every day!

First, there's the feud he has with Two Sigma's co-founder, where each holds about 50% of the company and they stopped speaking years ago. Then, there's John's estranged wife, Laura, who alleges in their divorce that he started squirreling money away in trusts in Wyoming almost twenty years ago to make sure it was out of her reach. Even the guy's girlfriend is filing lawsuits and calling the cops! Sponsors Upgrade your every day! Download the Quince app for app-exclusive offers, or go to ⁠Quince.com/TRASHY⁠.
