    Just curious sa sentiment ng tsikot.

    If you are wealthy and your soon to be spouse is not, would you consider a pre-nup agreement?

    The less wealthy fiance should be the one to offer the prenup.

    Your legal team will insist on a prenup ... it's standard among high net worth individuals ... especially for old money ...

    Why not? Yung ayaw sa prenup, alam na pera lang talaga habol. Besides, if the couple truly loves each other, gagastusan pa din naman nila isat-isa.

    If I was filthy rich? Of course, I'll have a prenup. She can take it or leave it. She choose to leave? Bu-bye.

    Also, I will never marry any woman who has boatloads of debt. Couples should disclose their debts to each other before tying the knot.

    Especially here in the US. You never know if your SO has student debts in the 6 figures $$$. YOU'LL be the one paying for it.

    Forget that. No woman is beautiful enough for me to start paying off her debt.

    Awkward if the wealthier party brings it up. You risk offending the other party because it could be misconstrued as implying the other party is after your money. Better if the less wealthy party offers. Proof pa that the marriage is done in good faith.

    This. Yung lesser asset fiance saving the wealthier fiance from having to bring it up plus it shows that the lesser asset fiance is not after money.

    Concern lang to ng mga 1) self-made as previously mentioned who risk losing a significant portion of their wealth or 2) old money parents na magpapamana ng pera nila sa anak (and indirectly sa future in-law).
    In my family's case, we are middle class but my paternal Lola wants our properties to be kept within the bloodline.

    My Tita is legally separated but when my Tito passed away, she still got ALL the wife benefits. So I asked nga what's the legal separation, parang it's literally to legally live separately They can't remarry naman.
