Why Prenups are Like Title Insurance
You wouldn't buy a house without title insurance. Why are you building a life without asset protection?
A prenuptial agreement isn't betting against your marriage. It's the same logic as title insurance.
You aren't expecting fraud. You're simply making sure that if something doesn't happen, you and your spouse have pre-decided how things will work (not the government).
Couples who are able to discuss finances, aspirations, and, yes, worst-case scenarios before marriage are demonstrating exactly the kinds of communication and seriousness that make the best marriages work.
After years and years in family law, we know that couples with prenups divorce less, not because fewer people have them, but serious people tend to get prenups, and serious people tend to build serious marriages.
