I am cool with that. I say both spouses get life insurance policies on each other..
I really don't think people should be married if the whole goal is to keep everything separate. Might as well stay single.

Well, if there was a guarantee that people would honor marriage vows, then there would be no reason to get prenups.
Unfortunately, people get married for different reasons which may or may not be for the right reasons.
Let’s say you came to the table with tangibles, but your husband didn’t because he got into trouble way back and is an ex felon. Y’all get married, he cheated on you, made a side baby, the. you decided to bounce and file for divorce, but the judge awarded him spousal support, half your pension, made you seek your house, took half your 401K, IRA and made you pay for his legal fees.
I believe you would be pissed!
The above scenario is why people get pre/post nuptial agreements.
Getting a prenuptial agreement is non-negotiable. I’m not getting married without one. My parents got one
You have to make sure she’s properly represented though. They get discarded al the time.
Again, why get married in the scenario?
Supposedly, people get married for love right? But, marriage is also a business. So, since it is a contract, then how come two people can’t collectively bargain a contract?
You can be married in spirit. The contract is just business. If business isn't mutual beneficial why do it? Might as well just stay together without the contract.
Marriage is a choice. Two people don’t have to make their union legal. But, at the same token, how easy is it to find someone who is willing to get in to a relationship or commitment without them benefitting from it?
I understand that there are no guarantees in life, but I want to ensure that I will be able to sustain myself should things not work out.
I am all for negotiating a fair agreement. But, the way the courts are ran, that shyt is far from being fair, so there has to be some way that all parties involved will get what is due to them fairly.
Can’t be a lick, come up for one person, but destitution and poverty for the other.
So yeah, marriage may not be an option, if the shyt is going to be one sided..
Is it reasonable for a preference? Marriage is about what you’re looking for so whatever a person wants is what it is.I can agree to your reasoning..
Let me ask you this, is it reasonable for a man to prefer to be with a woman who has comparable tangibles to the table prior to entering a relationship? If so, should said man does start a relationship with a woman who brings equal to the table, do you still think that a prenup and possibly a postnuptial agreement is necessary, in this day and age?
This didn't answer the question. Why would you get into such a unbalanced situation in the first place? Most marriages have a 50/50 of the assets acquired in the marriage if both parties unless the incomes are substantially.
So why get into a marriage and draw up a contract to make it like you're single instead of just staying single?
Is it reasonable for a preference? Marriage is about what you’re looking for so whatever a person wants is what it is.
I don’t think it’s necessary to have one, but understandable given our times. Regardless of who has what entering.
Just Clean your pistol in front of her regularly and randomly make comments about what you would do if anyone ever tried to take what you worked for......fear is an effective deterrent
