5 Ways Your Prenup Can Be Made Useless by 2buffagain(m): 4:35am On Jan 26, 2019 |
If you live in the New York City area, you may have seen the news last month that a Brooklyn court threw out the prenuptial agreement a Long Island woman had signed with her millionaire husband before their 1998 wedding. This is a precedent-setting move, and divorce lawyers nationwide are sitting up and taking notice. Will more people now try to have prenuptial agreements tossed out of court? Long ago, having a prenuptial agreement was considered stodgy or even insulting, but these days, “prenups” are becoming increasingly common for high net worth couples. Simply put, a prenup formalizes the understanding between spouses-to-be as to which of their assets will become marital property, which will continue to belong to whom individually, and, in the event of a breakup down the road, what financial provisions are to be made. Most commonly, a prenup is drawn up to protect the spouse with greater separate assets from losing an unfair proportion of that wealth if the marriage should end.

Men are logical beings. Men will just dump the idea of marriage completely and cohabitate instead, especially in states that do not consider cohabitation as a legal form of partnership (e.g Mississippi and Michigan). And if they change cohabitation laws in all states, well, it's time to just move to a country thay doesn't see you as a mere wallet. 1 Like |

2buffagain: I know for sure that the following states have anti-cohabitation laws and not recognized as a form of partnership., Michigan, Mississippi, North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia. |

I'm never gonna get married without a prenup. Most marriage laws are made to favour women because they usually have the least asset, some have even turned divorce to full time business. Just look at Jeff Bezos, a normal woman might forgive her husband but because his wife knows what she stands to gain, she'll rather die to get that divorce. I'm yet to read of any case of any couple sharing the wife's assets, it's always the other way around. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Well,Nothing that won't get abused eventually. Marriage would soon be for those who have nothing or less to lose. We never get prenup in Nigeria yet men are already tilting towards baby mama's. So a man would struggle to provide for both his wife & children & then lose all or half of his wealth after he's done his part & wants out? Nobody should harp about the stress of having pregnancies or raising children abeg. That's the default for women. They were created to do what a man cannot do. But it's not a valid enough reason to deprive a man of his gains. The dynamics of modern times has made it more costly for providers. A valid reason for me would be if the couple had joined both BRAINS&FINANCES to build their wealth together 100%. These are secondary functions apart from providing sperm & giving birth. unfortunately most women of rich men & even ordinary men are just baby machines & decoration. Never going past the primary function & it's not like they don't have the chance. Who doesn't like it easy. The marriage arrangement is never equal. If the above valid reason was met...I'll gladly share my wealth with the concerned party. We both worked for it. Claiming equality when 8 times out of 10,the Man's input is thrice that of the woman.Hogwash! Be wary of feminized societies. 1 Like |

lilbest4: The real reason is because divorce is a multi-billion dollar business that the government benefits from at the end of the day...hence the backward laws still existing. Divorce is especially encouraged because it also feeds into the child support industry. In general, any weakness in society that is ever allowed to be turned into an industry means there will always be forces preventing that weakness from being truly resolved (e.g generator industry in Naija). Not only that, they will further create more laws to increase problems so the industry can grow, like that "No fault divorce thing".....I mean reason this shiit. Before, there had to be a reason for divorce. Now woman can just wake up one morning and just decide to join the government (serpent) to screw your life up and enslave you financially just because she had a mood swing. Even if he caught the woman CHEATING and he is divorcing her for her infidelity, that won't change anything. The man would still PAY. The government is basically the serpent, and Eve is still an easily-deceived, power-thirsty brat that hasn't changed. Those 2 have been out to get man since day one. The first whisper was "You can be like God" (God being Alpha wasn't even having none of that. Straight boot). Next whisper is "You can be like a man" (Hence radical or illogical feminism, but men are too chicken-shiit to deal with it like God did). Only fools marry right now in some parts of the world. 2 Likes |
