Yknow that is "allegedly" why Jen Hudson and whats his face haven't been married yet? Cos he won't sign a prenup?<br /><br />So far everyone here seems to think of a situation where the man is the higher earner and needs to "protect" his money.<br /><br />How would y'all feel if you ended up making a lot more money, your husband cheated on you, and you STILL had to pay him spousal sypport after the divorce? Would you prefer a prenup then? A prenup is for protecting both parties. If you never have to use it, then great!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03368391384597746654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8715141585183771502.post-54295790695335823522012-01-21T02:20:52.108-06:002012-01-21T02:20:52.108-06:00You raise what i consider some very unique, though...You raise what i consider some very unique, thought provoking thoughts. I don't know how i feel about the guy i love wanting to sign a prenup. ironically, the romantic in me actually wants to say i don't care, i would sign one 'cos it is just a piece of paper that won't affect us really. I have no thoughts specifically about kobe and his ex-wife. They were married,he brought in the reasons they are divorcing into their union. he obviously didn't care about his money.neuyogihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03094246999281257053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8715141585183771502.post-50279626699272624312012-01-20T22:40:20.241-06:002012-01-20T22:40:20.241-06:00I don't feel sorry for Kobe and other cheating...I don't feel sorry for Kobe and other cheating azz married men whose wives take half. Ntoiii, he deserves it.<br /><br />Prenup: I would generally be insulted by the idea of a pre-nup. Shit happens so you want to insure yourself? Okay. Carry your insurance plan on to someone else. That would definitely leave a bad taste in my mouth.Original Mgbekenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8715141585183771502.post-15046765433733438322012-01-20T21:33:50.912-06:002012-01-20T21:33:50.912-06:00I actually think pre-nups are a cool idea and I th...I actually think pre-nups are a cool idea and I think women should be the ones making men sign them before marriage. Most of us think the marriage certificate is enough, and indeed if you have the right person, it is usually sufficient. But, and here's a big but because I know it's not for everyone, if you feel you need more security, then have a lawyer draw up a pre-nup. And by security, I don't just mean money, things like child custody and fidelity, living arrangements, DV, etc can all go in there. I know most of this is covered in the law but nothing says you can't spell out something that is more individual to your situation. <br /><br />Some will say if you feel you need legal papers over your partner you need not marry them, I say foul. Marriage is a legal institution and it is a contract whereby you sign the certificate to seal. The ramifications of all marriages are determined by the location where it is made binding. So having a pre-nup to set things more clearly is continuing on a path already begun.Mynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595087387069634003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8715141585183771502.post-14960010981713032802012-01-20T19:26:37.782-06:002012-01-20T19:26:37.782-06:00I've said it a million times, i'd be far b...I've said it a million times, i'd be far beyond offended if my husband to be wanted me to sign a pre-nup and he probably would be my ex at that point. There's something off about going into a marriage already thinking about the end. <br /><br />Ppl talk about pre-nups when they are wealthy but if you really think about it, if you have 50 mil and get a divorce and wifey gets half, u still have 25 mil plus the ability to make more whereas her share will eventually be spent and not replenished. But if you have 50k and wifey gets half...u see where i'm going.<br /><br />Not to mention, when you get a divorced, they only split up money/property acquired during the marriage not anything you had before.LadyNgohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00875332361921132497noreply@blogger.com
