Granted, Julian Sterling has a head for business, and he's worked hard to get where he is.
But if he didn't have a woman at home who could handle things so he didn't have to worry, his career wouldn't have been so successful!
That's why marrying a good, supportive wife is so important.
You could even say it determines a man's future prospects!
If Julian had married Jane Jacobs back then, that woman was only with him for his money. She would've only been after his wealth, not truly devoted to him.
Even if Julian didn't give her money, she would have found ways—playing the victim, acting wronged—to get money from him, even tricking him out of it.
"Mom, I understand now why you and Dad went to such lengths! This time, as long as Eve agrees to remarry me, I promise I'll build a good life with her. I won't make you and Dad worry anymore."
