It's all about the Prenup!

Ooh ooh Reese and Ryan broke up! *Gasp gasp* Shocking story, ain't it?

Next question:

Do they have a pre-nup?

*Definition thanks to wiki!*
A prenuptial agreement, commonly abbreviated to prenup or prenupt, is a contract entered into by two people prior to marriage or civil union. The content of a prenuptial agreement can vary widely, but commonly includes provisions for the division of property should the couple divorce and any rights to spousal support during or after the dissolution of marriage.

Do you remember when Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey broke up? Jessica said Nick was too much of a wussy to have the guts to ask her for money. I don't think they had a prenup.


So..... prenup! Does it do something to the marriage? Is it a logical, rational thing to consider when entering a marriage? Or does it doom marriage right from the start? Logically, I am not sure what I think about it. However, I don't feel that great about it because I think people should spend more time thinking about marriage in the first place. Of course not everyone spends that much time being careful and guarded, and shit happens (like infidelity ten years down the line!). I feel that it would put a damper in the relationship right from the start. I mean, you're just getting married! Why think about divorce already! I also think it depends on the financial situations of the two parties. If they both are financially successful or financially similar in their assets, then a prenupt wouldn't matter as much.
