MANILA, Philippines, July 15 ------ After four years of marriage, Matteo Guidicelli fully trusts his wife Sarah Geronimo’s “gut feel” when it comes to making decisions on major investments and purchases. “I guess four years ago, when we got married, we established our template on how our long-term goals or our short-term goals are, and where we want our family to go, etc., and I’m very happy because Sarah and I, we have been hitting those goals. “Two years ago, we established our production company (G Productions). So basically, we reinvested our money into our business that’s also part of entertainment,” shared Matteo during a recent one-on-one chat with The Philippine STAR. “And then as the years go by, we see new things. For example, there’s a nice investment. Sarah always has the gut feel of good things so sasabihin, ‘Love, ito, ito,’ I’ll ask, and (then she’ll say), ‘Love, no, ‘wag yan’ or ‘love, yes, yan.’ So, she has that touch.”
Sarah, on the other hand, pointed out that there are other influential people in their lives, like Matteo’s dad. “He would tell him, ‘Matteo, is this practical?’ ‘Do you need it now?’” Agreed Matteo, “So we have different people around our lives that really guide us. But at the end of the day, the decision makers really are Sarah and I. “And Sarah is the person who has that intuition and she has a very strong feeling na she feels if it’s good. ‘Love, let’s study it more, or game.’ If not, she would say, ‘Love, let’s pass on this one.’ “Ako kasi I’m very ‘atat,’ impulsive,” the actor-athlete added. “So I’m very blessed to have Sarah as a partner. Love, teka lang, analyze muna natin kung ano ito.” While Matteo happily credited Sarah, for the latter, they complement each other. The pop star also noted that both of them — their partnership, in business and in life — has matured and grown a lot since they became husband and wife.
Aside from establishing G Productions, they have since built G Studios in Alabang. “So yung partnership po naming mag-asawa, nag-mature din kasi whether we like it or not, mas creative side po ako,” explained Sarah. “Mas sinasabihan ako ng asawa ko na, ‘Love, you have to be informed about the details when it comes to finances.’ Kasi kami bilang creative, kung ano lang yung gusto namin i-produce, parang minsan gusto mag-produce right away,” Sarah said. “But we have to be aware kung kakayanin ba financially and yung returns, okay ba. So malaki yung growth din na naibigay sa amin as life partners.” As business partners, the couple said that their focus now is to really keep the business running and making sure that there’s “good return.” “The main mission vision of the whole company is for creatives, to build Sarah’s creatives and mine also,” said Matteo. Sarah added, “We want to be part of the creative journey of other artists... Kami yung magiging venue for them parang playground nila yung G Studios.”
