Apparently the ones with prenups have a lower divorce rate than those that don’t.
Haha. I wonder why...

First of all, in my humble opinion, feeling that you need a prenup isn't a good sign unless it's just your standard sugar daddy scenario.


My daughters’ future spouses will be required to sign one.

It's love daddy!

I'm sure you already have alternative strategies for inheritance when this doesn't happen, but 20-30 year olds don't make good decisions, and don't like to listen to experience. My friend has 4 daughters, G-d help that poor bastard.

My older sister was going through a nasty divorce when my husband and I were getting married. My father insisted we have one. Husband didn’t have a problem with it and told my dad he wasn’t marrying me for $$$. Celebrating 32 years in a few weeks.

The prenup is my compromise with my wife. I’d rather sell in 10 years and be done working. She has some romanticized vision of a generational business - I don’t.

Yes. My divorce cost $1300 for everything. No alimony. 6 years married. Yes she initiated the divorce. She was very surprised she received $0 of over $2,000,000 in assets.

Good for you baw

Would of paid to seen the look on her face after she recieved the news! Sounds like she was a true gold digging split tail for giving up after only 6 years, knowing she thought she was going to get a free payday!

Nope.


The fruits of it may be, but not the item itself.


Ex: Your wife inherits an oil well from her mom and dad. The oil well dividends are used to buy a new car.
The car is community property, the oil well is still her separate, inherited property.

A very simple example, but I assume that's the point you were making.

I’m proposing at some point in the near future and my direct family told me I had to get one with my chick before I was given my grandmother’s ring.

I don’t have any significant cash or anything, but I guess it could be an inheritance thing.

That’s another one. I’m 35 and have zero idea of any future financial shite regarding once people pass. Idk if that’s something people are usually aware of or not

Well, brother, good luck.

That's a tricky deal.

You are inheriting the ring, and then giving it to someone else.

I dont know how that woukd work with a prenuptial, and I'm not sure if she would be under any obligation to return it

Just curious as to how strictly the prenup was enforced.



When I got married I was worth less then zero. So I'm not sure what good a pre nup would have done.

I don't think I could be married and not have nightmares of divorce without most of my money hidden away in a Swiss bank

Imagine the two of you agreeing to terms, signing the prenup, and then having it tossed out because "She didn't have her own attorney".
So the man who paid for the attorney is punished for being the one to foot the bill because that means that it was "his attorney".

And they wonder why guys are shaking their heads and walking away from marriage all together.
Staying single & not cohabitating is the only real way to protect your assets.

In my humble opinion, you are naive as can be.



Or you've never been married.
