Should You Sign a Prenup?

Summary

  • Sometimes, people think about getting a prenup when they get married. Alex asked me to sign one, and I said sure, because I didn’t mind. But he ended up tearing it up before we got married because I didn’t care about it.
  • If you are starting a relationship with no money or assets and plan to build everything together, maybe a prenup isn’t needed.
  • I believe people should protect their assets. If you have a lot of money and your partner doesn’t, a prenup can be a good idea.
  • Some people think you should rely on trust instead of a prenup. If you can’t trust someone enough to just shake on it, maybe you shouldn’t make deals with them.
  • If Alex were to pass away and I chose to remarry, I would definitely have them sign a prenup to protect what I've built.

How To Take Action

I would suggest that if you're thinking about marriage and each partner has a different amount of money, it's smart to talk about a prenup. This helps keep both people's money safe, especially if one has a lot more than the other. Start by having an open conversation with your partner. Discuss your thoughts and feelings about money and future plans to make sure you're on the same page.

A good way to decide if a prenup is right for you is to first evaluate your current financial situation. If both of you are starting with little and plan to build together, then maybe a prenup isn’t needed. This allows you to focus on trust and teamwork without needing legal documents.

For those wanting personal growth, practice trusting your instincts. If you feel uneasy about making a big decision or deal, like marriage, consider why you feel that way. Trust should be at the heart of any strong relationship. If handshakes or verbal agreements feel unreliable, it might be good to have clear agreements in writing.

Finally, regularly revisit your financial and personal goals as a couple. Life circumstances change, and being aligned on these aspects supports growth together. Whether it’s marriage or business partnerships, understanding each other's values ensures a strong foundation.
