Search Results: prenuptial agreements

I would never get married without one. Women almost always hold the cards in the marriage when it comes to the law.

A man can lose everything in a marital breakdown. Makes you think.

Let's say a man with a net worth of $5 million dollars proposed to you. Before the marriage the man approaches with you this idea for a prenuptial agreement: Instead of you getting a fixed sum after the divorce, alimony, half of the house, etc., the prenuptial says "On the day of legal marriage (you, the wife) will receive a check for $1,000,000. Should you and your husband divorce (under any circumstances) you keep the $1M plus any interest, but you do not get anything else. But no matter what, the $1M you received on your wedding day is yours forever, no matter what. Do you think a woman who was paid "in advance" would be more likely to leave the man or less likely?

You also agree in advance to joint custody for any of his biological children born from the marriage.

This is effectively paying for the divorce in advance.

Would you sign this prenuptial agreement? If not, why not?

My parents are traditional and I’m at that age where they’re pushing me to find a girl and get married.

I’ve always wanted to get married but Lately I have my doubts. I’ve been on a couple dates with some beautiful women and that’s all they had, nice faces. My relatives/friends even warned me that there are some women that will want to be with you for all the amazing luxuries I have. My inheritance will go in a trust but I myself am ultra ambitious and determined to excel in my career and family businesses. Things like sharing my current assets I’ve worked hard for with someone else gives me a lot of anxiety. Prenuptial agreements don’t necessarily offer much security.

I feel like I have it all as a man. Yet it’s so hard to find the right girl, I’m already giving up. Is there any point? Should I just let it happen naturally? I’m a very ambitious guy, I want to succeed on my own/by myself. I’ve also seen men just mellow out when they get married.

I know I definitely want kids and I definitely don’t want to become lonely. It’s just that, I really hate the vibes I get off the majority of women I meet. The girls that tend to be really nice are just randomly walking about and I have a hard time finding them.

We all worry about whether we are being led on by someone or being used. With the ambitions/visions I have in life I can’t afford to have someone messing about with me.
