I was reading David Bach’s national bestseller Smart Couples Finish Rich the other night, and in it he discusses prenuptial agreements. We all know that this is a touchy subject for most couples but it should not be ignored. He suggests most couples should discuss them early on in the engagement, even before getting engaged. He also says asking your husband/wife to sign a prenup doesn’t mean there is something wrong with the relationship - it just proves how serious they are about their financial future.
Between myself and my fiance, we don’t know of anyone who has gotten one done before their wedding. But then again this issue is kind of personal so maybe they haven’t said anything about it.
I was wondering if anyone has discussed this subject with their prospective spouses and what kind of reactions they have received, both positive and negative.
My fiance says that if he were a lawyer advising me about prenuptial agreements, he would tell all of his clients to get a prenup to mitigate any future disputes, but that as a spouse he would feel a bit hurt/insulted. But he generally supports whatever I want to do regarding this issue. I am a bit on the fence…..any thoughts ladies?

I agree that prenups are tricky and at times quite necessary. My fiance and I are pretty level headed and have no intentions to sign a prenup because (1) we have no money
(2)anything that we acquire later would be something we did together and if we split (which we do not intend to do) it would only be fair that it was divided up at least 50/50 or some other mutually agreed upon arrangement.
My favorite prenups are not the logical ones but the ones that state that if the wife/husband gains x amout of weight then they lose x amount of money or if the female births x amout of children then she gets an amount equal to the # of children multiplied by a dollar amount. They really crack me up because beyond the money it’s just insane to put a price on children and appearance in a marriage.
