Real talk...why is the Prenup taboo?

I would think any significant other willing to spend a 'lifetime' with you should be fine doing just that regardless of the financial situation.

Simple concept? You wildin if you thats what you gonna tell the judge.

If you put more into the house, with you making 90k and your wife making 75k, she can say your gap in salary allows you to save for a downpayment on a house before she can, so she should get this one.

Then why assume it will be as simple as "person A paid more so person A gets it" when splitting assets? Especially if person A is male?

If I put more money into the house and I make 95K while she makes 70K the judge is going to do one of two things: I get my house and continue to pay for it, or give it to her and tell her by social

Do you even remember what you posted? You said a prenup is not worth it.
If I'm making 90K and my wife is making 75K there really is no point...and that sums up the majority of people who get married.

I then ask about splitting a house because a pre-nup will aid in doing that. You said Its as simple as whoever paid more gets it and your significant other should be fine in doing that.

Then you go ahead and say its an uphill battle for men and wrap it up by saying its not that simple and a prenup is logical? You confusing yourself fam.

Yes. Maybe not those specific values, but I know of a case where the wife was making $43K and husband was making $70K+.

Another instance the wife kept the house because her job pinned her to it (I think her main job was a baking/catering company she ran from the house), while the husband could relocate easier (he was a nurse).
 
If you marry the right person, a prenup shouldn't really cross your mind...you go into a marriage happy and thinking FOREVER...saying "shorty sign this prenup" is basically going into marriage thinking there is a slight possibility is going to fail....which if it's the case, don't get married....is simple.

But you drink your jimmy wine, so we cant take any prenup advice your giving.
 
Maybe is just me, it took me 10 years to take the plunge, that's a decade long before I asked her to marry me, I like to think I know her very well to know I don't need a legal document to protect my assets should things go south down the line....we still happily married so I guess I live in my own fairy tale, sorry the rest of you live life in fear....to each its own.
 
It isn't even about knowing her man. It is about understanding that human beings are DYNAMIC creatures. Over time, you have NO idea what is going to happen. But you already said you were broke when you got into the marriage and you didn't have anything to lose and that was a reason as to why you didn't do it.

But it is about.........nvm. It has already been stated before
 
It's cuz of the implication that the marriage won't work out in the end.

Logic and love don't mix.

To be honest if I was rich and single I would never marry, because simply put having money puts you at a disadvantage of finding actual TRUST....

Not my issue and even though I'm not rich, I'm not broke either, have always had significantly more than my wife so in theory if she wanted to and things went sour I can lose out a lot of what I earned on my own...however like I already stated, trust >>>>> love lead by trust and you won't feel the need to protect yourself.

I'll let ha know when I fall flat on my face, till then I'm happy and didn't need a document to help me sleep at ease at night, good luck to you guys tho.
 
No lie, that's real cool that steezer has been with her for so long. He seems like he's happy with her and never has to post advice threads about his girl being a thot like most other NTers.

Lowkey jelly Steezy.
