罗振宇讲过自己的经历，年轻时他也曾觉得，婚姻真没意思，一度不想踏入婚姻。
直到有天在海边遇到一个老人，老人刚生过一场大病，身体还很虚弱。谈到婚姻时，老人说。“到我这个年纪，你以为婚姻还意味着什么财富、条件吗？并不是。是我午夜三点醒来的时候，我口渴，我伤口疼，我只要捅捅身边，老太太就知道，我这个时候要喝水。就这一口水，你说多贵？如果没有几十年经营出来的婚姻，我这时候上哪要这口昂贵的水。“LuoZhenyutoldhisownexperience,whenhewasyoung,healsofeltthatmarriagewasreallyboring,oncedidnotwanttostepintomarriage.
