Why save the world, when you can rule it?
Everyone should be cautious about marriage. I know I should be, but I'm not.
I'm marrying an absolute pain in the arse.
Why am I marrying a pain in the arse? Because Socrates did likewise, because I love her, because we'll fulfill the stereotype of constantly bickering married couple who hate each other.
And also, I admit, in part 'cos she has a HUGE arse. And pretty eyes.

Sometimes its not just about not trusting the partner- its just not knowing what the future holds for both of you. YOU may fall out of love...or both partners may just grow apart. Its not a matter of not trusting the person you love, its not trusting how marriages in this day and age progress, and in most times, falter. You wouldn't buy a home without home insurance, or take a big trip without travellers insurance, or even live life without health insurance....prenups are just insurance for your assets and your cash and making sure any issues in the future don't harm it.
But since I was poor going in I had nothing to lose. If I get rich now though I have to split 50/50 and I'd never get serious with anyone again so wouldn't need to worry about it.

Tiger, is that you?
If you are filthy rich there will always be women looking to marry you with an eye on your fortune, sorry to be cynical but that's the reality of the situation. Also when older men holiday and fall in love with young thai women or older women holiday and fall in love with young turkish men how much of this is 'real' love or just an attempt to get a passport? There are always people out there looking to exploit others, sometimes you can't blame them as they come from property and that shapes the way they think and act. Best marry someone you knew before you got rich or try conceal your wealth whilst dating the women so you can see how they actually treat you and what they see in you, or get the prenup. Otherwise you'll end up like Paul McCartney.
Um, does this imply that if you aren't filthy rich, marriage is something about which you needn't be cautious?
I'd be cautious about marriage rich or not. Let's all take the concept of marriage seriously. Like it or not, it's a major factor in much of society. Jumping into it without forethought is about the stupidest thing anyone can do. It has a major impact not only on your life, but on the life of your spouse, your family, your potential children, your finances, your emotional health, blah blah blah blah.
So, yeah. If I were filthy rich, I'd be cautious about marriage. If I were dirt poor, I'd be cautious about marriage. There's only one situation in which I'd jump into marriage, and it involves BlueBalls, 2 litres of vodka, Petra, and a garden gnome.

it's tough when you have that much money...you don't know who the real people are.

it really doesn't matter what your financial status is.
and prenups can be used as toilet paper many times.
reality is that once a man gets married he just gave the wife some serious power and leverage.
and if you have kids, forgetaboutit.
you'd better pray she doesn't want you out of the picture.
Thats the way the legal system has it set up.
I've known guys of average income who's wives kicked them out.
Got restraining orders on them because judgesgive those out like candy on halloween.
took all the money in the accounts.
and the man had to still pay the mortgage ( sometimes when her new boyfriend is living in the house), the bills, child support, health insurance and basically anything the women and her lawyer asked for.
many men wind up putting a bullet in their head because not only did they lose their family but they are treated like criminals by the court system.
I know i'm negative but i've seen more marriages end like that than live happily ever after.

say what you mean, don't hide behind little vague remarks.
thats the kind of posts that are turning this board to shit.
more than you think kill themselves for that reason.
others don't but theyre lives are completely ruined and they become dead inside.
not just for losing their wives and kids but the burden put on them by the system and the stress that comes from that.
I'm not getting married. I mean, you get married, and the first thing you know....you've got a wife.
For those who do get married, if they have so much money then it's their own fault for not being more careful with it. That trust that those two people have for each other is a nice, storybook thought, but it can crash down so fast and hard and turn bitter.
I know, these are things everyone appears to be aware of, until they get that wild idea to get married, and then they lose touch with reality. The people around them try to warn them, but they may as well be talking to a brick wall.
People who are filthy rich, well, we all know they lose their minds. There's no logic with them.
