Would never consider it myself under any circumstances....even after being taken to the cleaners by my second hubby when he wasnt entitled to much at all, let alone half of what I got from my first marriage. What I did walk away with I partied year long, went on a wild spending spree so the next time someone loved me it was for me hahahaha We could of done with some of that money now

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

I'm just a first-year teacher, fresh out of university, so I have not much asset to speak of. My fiancé's settled, with a greater nest egg, but hey... I'm the one who's giving up my career and life here in Canada for him. :P Lots of trust is involved here. We've discussed it as an interesting topic of discussion, but both decided that we have no need of one.

for karen and i there are much more important things than money. this was never considered. ever.

agreed...neither of us have much anyway. i lost everything in my first marriage as well...and my ex a$$hole husband left me with not so good credit as a result. but joel is different...we've gotten to know each other in ways i never knew my ex.... we trust each other implicitly. :)

no, no, and no!!! If you ask me, it's just another way of making it easier to get divorced. You shouldn't be going into a marriage planning on how to get out of it cleanly!!!

Stupid stupid stupid!!!

:no: Talked about it 3 weeks after we met online..... and Nah...... it's not how we do things!

Besides... we don't have much. We'll build everything together from scratch almost (except that he has a car and some expensive music recording stuff and I will get 50% of my parent's apartment if something happens to them!)!

We didn't even think of that when we got married.

I think it depends whether it's a first marriage or not. When people get married for the first time they don't think of such things (unless if one of them is a millionare, like was mentioned before). But if it's not a first marriage people tend to think ahead in case if something doesn't work out, and the experience they had with the divorce of previous marriage probably will make them think ahead this way.

NEVER even considered one. Danette and I were friends for a few months before we began to get serious. We talked about EVERYTHING. There were no subjects off limits. So, I trusted her from the start. And I believe, she feels the same way. Besides, we plan on partying most of it anyway. LOL...LOL :dancing::jest:

I'll admit that I thought about it seriously for a while. Which is funny really, since Sian owns her house, and will see a very nice profit on it when she sells it (South London) - making her wealthier than me. lol I own my house also. It was my grandmothers, and I grew up here, so the house has a LOT of sentimental value to me. That was why I seriously considered it.

Yet, I trust Sian. If things DID go bad, she could totally destroy me by taking my house if she were so inclined. I don't see that happening though. This will be the first marriage for both of us, so maybe I'm naive, but I don't think so.

As for Sian's "riches" from selling her house, that's going into an account for her son to go to college. I would never even consider touching it for any reason.

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.
