    Pre-Nuptual Agreements

    Anyone else feel that if you think you need one of these in place, you are marrying the wrong person?

    As you are from Devon; I don't think it applies to brothers and sisters.

      Statistics suggest most* people marry the wrong person. Though nature usually suppresses logic circuits in the early stages so something's already amiss if pre-nuptials and other logical reasoning is still intact.


      * a lot anyway

        And as you are uglier than a warthog, the prospect of you finding a potential bride is such an unlikely contingency, it begs the question why even look at this thread?

                I don't think it's too bad an idea where there's a big disparity - like that heiress bint recently. I'd have signed one prior to getting married (if I was marrying a rich woman) because I'd be happy to prove I was marrying for the right reasons and not being a golddigger. That said if you are both broke there's no need and no real excuse.

                  But say you had £100M and you were "in love" with someone. Worst case, you end up going your own ways and might have to eke out an existence on £50M. Not that bad is it?
                  Why bother to get married at all if you would not be prepared for that possibility?

                    That's fine, but I am speaking as someone who doesn't have £100m and isn't likely to have.
