What do you think of prenuptial agreements?

[It'sWDW4me]

I'm for them if either or both parties have a decent sized net worth. I don't think it's only for the uber-wealthy. Let's face it, with a divorce rate of 50%, you're rolling the dice.

Also, consider this. With a pre-nup, you're deciding what's fair BEFORE you want to rip the other persons face off. It means that everyone walks away with what is right, and saves months of fighting in the courts (thus the lawyers don't end up with it all).

I couldn't have said it better myself!!

And I've been there (wanting to rip the ex's face off!) but I was way more fair than he deserved.

I chose "another reply" because mine is that I often wish I married someone wealthy enough to have needed one.

The one instance I know of in real life where the bride signed one happened because the groom's family had a very big and successful business that they didn't want her laying claim on, if the marriage didn't work out. So IOW, the pre-nup wasn't about the groom's wealth, but his family's, and I could understand their perspective.

I wouldn't sign one.
