    A week after i proposed to my girlfriend she told me: "Marriage is based on trust, so you wanting a prenup means you don't trust me. Marriage partners should be equal" I replied: "Give me one good reason why should i sign an agreement that can only benefit you and can only be damaging to me in the event of a divorce. Marriage is between two people and it's in no way a given that both will feel the same way decades or just years from now." She got mad enough that i got suspicious she cared more about money than me, and even though she then said a prenup is ok, i decided not to tie the knot too soon, and it didn't take long when i started to notice a change in her behavior whenever we talked about money so i left her and not long after that i found a great girl and we have been happily married for 8 years.. With a prenup.

    Excellent video. Respectfully 41% of first marriages end up in divorce and majority of those 59% are your grand-parents and parents that stayed together. The statistics are way way worst than that. Between 2007 to 2017 only 6% of those that married in 2007 (regardless of first second or third marriages) were still married 10 years later. That is 1 in 16. Uncle Sam hide these numbers since they are catastrophic with number games like 1st 2nd and 3rd marriages comparison...bla bla since the population is aging rapidly and the real numbers can be fixed that way. People dont have the slightest idea until they socialize a lot and notice that majority f the people are divorced at least once. You get married today and your chance to be divorced within the first 10 years is 94%...based on the 2007 to 2017 date...but interestingly Uncle Sam stated that divorce rate became worst with covid...so go figure. He should mention that prenups can be challenged and cancelled in many states upon the divorce by the other side lawyer.

    I’m a Christian and married a young girl from my church in LA when I was 23 (& pastoring a church there). 13 years later, people change over time, she shocked me with a nasty divorce. She’s a dedicated Christian with blogs and videos talking all the typical super-Christian “anti-divorce” narratives… but funny how people act when things get stressful. They never tell you on your wedding day: “I just want you to know, when things are stressful down the road, I’m going to become the most irrational person you know, come after your money, & screw the kids”. Lol Prenup is the only logical way to go now a days. Remember, marriage is sadly a business investment to most woman - it’s a “come up quick” arrangement to many. Remember: 80% of divorce are started by woman, but 90% of the monthly payments paid out go from the man to the woman. Another great option that has gotten popular is to just not get married with the state and only in your church. Most states have “dual dwelling” laws now so you still get the tax benefits. Ask a lawyer but it’s really becoming popular.

    Prenups are never upheld in Canadian courts and I suspect US courts find many ways to invalidate them as well. Correct me if I'm wrong, but prenups provide nothing more than a false sense of security and are promoted to fool the higher income earner. Courts and lawyers always want their take. It's so corrupt, I immediately lose faith in anyone that promotes marriage knowing full well the result is certain lifelong servitude. I still like PBD, but my advice is: don't marry, don't cohabitate. At the very least, talk to 20 people in your jurisdiction that have been through divorce etc. and can speak freely and honestly before you make any lifechanging decisions.

    @@csn10 Some good points for sure man. In the US, this varies by state but overall prenups are not 100% bulletproof but they do show intent, draw a lot more clarity in the relationship as it starts, and courts usually strongly consider them. Its a contractual agreement and it does carry some weight for sure in a lot of states. And believe it or not, all the ones I've ever seen (maybe 7 or 8) were originated by the higher income earner who's trying to protect themselves should the other person become a gold digger later on.

Centuries later the same meaningless teachings are used to DupeThe masses. Case in point Kenneth Copeland lives on 8 million dollar tax free estate and now owns a private luxury jet. This mf makes millions and lives a lavish life Bernie madoff could only dream of. In fact he's not the only one operating this type of racket. A wise man once said if it seems too good to be true chances are it is. Marriage kids and family is fkn stupid meaningless waste of time. Humanity truly is a parasitic cancer on earth. The planet needs less of us not more and since marriage and family is mainly there for the purpose of insuring successful breeding it serves nothing else except survival of the human species. It's infinitely easier to fk a whore or jerk off and go to sleep than waste time raising kids only to find out the kid became a school shooter, Hitler, Stalin, Ted Bundy,Jeffrey dahmer, a crooked judge corrupt politician etc. Fk that! Not to mention the constant screaming arguing and fighting that goes on in the house while kids grow. who needs all that stupid aggravation? F prenups f marriage n f kids!

    That's some bullshit right there. The whole point of a contract is that you are not friends when it comes to a business partnership. So why do you need a marriage contract. Taxes, children, etc. Not because your friends. But because it's a business arrangement with liability concerns. Marriage is an archaic institution. In reality, anything that fails half the time is typically considered unreliable.

    I asked my now wife of 8 years to sing a prenup before we marred. She asked why we needed it. I told her 100% of all of our previous romantic relationships for both her and I did not work out over time. So, with both of us failing 100% of the time we need to understand it's possible to fail again. She singed and we marred. In 8 years, she has never even said a bad word to me and we have not had any fights. She has her responsibilities and I have mine and we work together against the world instead of each other. I don't know if it would be the same without the prenup. Its so easy to quit on marriage in the modern world.

I kept one car, she got one car. I kept my 401k, but took the debt. She walked away with the furniture, a car, debt free, and I kept the house and a car. Last year I sold my house, my ex was my realtor, I cleared over 150k, she got a nice commission. It was funny. Now, I live in another state, in a house, on landi inherited. All debts paid off, 2 cars, 2 motorcycles, and trying to meet a woman. I keep meeting women who are in debt, with kids who are " my world" and a prenuptial makes total sense...that or staying single

    Remember when filing for a prenup make sure you BOTH have independent legal representation. Make sure that it is signed at least 2 months before you get married. It doesn’t matter how “IronClad” your prenup is, your former spouse can sue to have it thrown out and claim it was either signed under duress OR that they were mislead about the implications of the agreement. You would be surprised how many former partners end up winning and having the prenup thrown out or have the terms renegotiated.

They don't want any issues that'll detract from them getting your full attention and support for HER and HER kids. So, good luck if you pass on a Prenup.

    Great content!!! We didn’t have a Prenup but we DID set up Bank Accounts exactly as you said. Only thing we needed to do after we got married was make each other beneficiaries on Accounts. AND also add each other to Business Accounts in case of death (since they don’t have beneficiaries). 🌟💡🌟Do you have a video about “end of life” planning??? As an experienced wife of an Entrepreneur, I wanted my future husband to continue having his freedom and also NO arguments. My wisdom and his willingness worked 💞😇🙏🏽 exactly as you say here. Plus, I wanted to know when we were dating that he was truly in love with me and not what I have (my property as you said). As my home was the newer and nicer home. His home was trashed from cats, dogs, etc. Absolutely gross!!! But we agreed after we got married that we both put money into repairs and fixing it up. WE enjoy working together. Truly better together!!!! 💞 You’re right!!! We’d inspire each other in business and our businesses grew more and more from being together. He even turned me into an Entrepreneur when I was simply comfortable managing other businesses. Forever changed for the better. So grateful. My love language is words and gifts... I love to surprise my man with vacations too so I saw it as a win-win keeping my own account. He saw where I was coming from and agreed. When the movie “War Room” came out... I said, “Look!

You had my full attention right from where you started speaking about the yours, mine and our checking accounts. Also how you handle the part of step children. I had a beautiful relationship destroyed by a step child once. As always your subject matter on every subject you approach is very informative and interesting and very applicable.

    1. Keep your finances separate A prenup defines whether the assets you own like your house or car are separate property of one spouse or part of the marital estate. If you’re considerably wealthier than your partner, a prenup is a good step towards ensuring that your partner isn’t marrying you for your money. If you earn more than your partner, then a prenup can be used to limit the amount of alimony payable in the event of a divorce. If you own a business, a spouse can claim a portion of your business’ increase in value or income. Divorce is one of the biggest threats to the stability of your business, so get that squared away in your prenuptial agreement. 2. Establish property rights and distribution Your state’s laws dictate how the property obtained during your marriage is distributed upon divorce. In the nine states with community property laws, assets will typically be divided between the two parties in an equal split. Under equitable distribution state law, marital property is split in a manner that is considered fair when taking a number of factors into account, such as each partner’s financial contribution to the marriage and their subsequent needs post-divorce. Some couples might want to avoid having to leave the disposition of their assets up to the courts. With a prenup, you have an agreement already in writing, on what to do with your home and personal property, made long before this potentially contentious period when an agreement might seem impossible. Your prenup can also stipulate the distribution of your property and even life insurance benefits upon the death of one of the partners. 3. Protect one spouse from the other spouses’ debt Debt is an unfortunate reality of life, and people are bringing their debt into marriage along with furniture and family. That debt isn’t necessarily evenly allocated between the partners, and should there be a divorce, the less-burdened partner doesn’t want to have to pay off creditors, should they target shared marital assets for repayment. A prenup can help to limit one partner’s exposure to the other’s debt in the case of divorce. Any agreement should outline the separate debts of each partner going into the marriage as well as individual assets; that allows for a clear division between those debts and debts accrued by the couple during the course of the marriage. 4. Protect your family property and estate plan You may have an heirloom or property that you want to ensure stays within the family in the case of divorce. Having a prenup in place to keep any cherished items separate and apart from your communal marital assets ensures that the fate of your familial property isn’t left up to the court system or state laws. A prenup can also address any questions of inheritance and ensure that your estate plan is carried out according to your wishes, in conjunction with a will and living trust. 5. Protect your assets in the event of remarriage Should you decide to get remarried after your divorce, you’ll be faced with a new set of challenges and complications when it comes to determining how to protect your family as well as your property. A second marriage includes all the complications that already come with combining separate lives and adds the possibility of children, child support, and additional assets to be accounted for. A prenup for a second or (subsequent) marriage should address all of the concerns of an initial marriage as well as addressing concerns arising from obligations from the previous marriage. It can also spell out the distribution of assets in the case of death of one of the partners, to ensure that person’s children get any intended inheritance - again, in conjunction with a will or living trust. 6. Avoid extensive court proceedings in the event of divorce A divorce is a painful enough process as is, made even more so by a long, drawn-out and expensive legal process that can cost on average $15,000 per person. And trying to come to an agreement on divvying up your assets and property when your negative feelings towards your former partner are at their highest is challenging on the best day. A prenup signed ahead of your marriage will at least alleviate some of the headache of fighting over your assets and make the process somewhat smoother, if not easier. 7. Openly communicate and prepare yourself for the possibility of divorce No one wants to enter marriage thinking about the possibility of its failure, but given the oft-cited divorce rates, it’s a reality impossible to ignore. Having that difficult conversation with your partner before you get married about the potential for divorce and finances, allows you to be open and honest with one another, and prepares you for the difficult conversations that are required in any marriage. When you’re prepared for the possibility that your marriage could end in divorce, you’re being emotionally realistic. You’re also being open with your partner about your financial status, needs and concerns as you enter marriage.

    Advise, prenups can be rejected in courts and thrown away, but to prevent that, before it's signed a medical professional should be present and yr spouses attorney too, then a video recording should be done, to prevent yr spouse saying they were pressured in court to sign it . Also prenups cannot protect you from losing money after divorce, child support and alimony aren't protected.

    Diplomatically well done Patrick. However I definitely think a kay point you neglected to mention is that the lawyers of both parties should look at the prenup before its signed off. The reason being so that it can never be said that either party signed it under duress, which can get the prenup completely thrown out in many states. Another factor that should be included in all prenups is mandatory paternity testing with significant penalty clauses if they don't come out clean.

    Great video Pat - very logical and convincing argument to get a prenup! You’ve hit the nail on its head! It’s interesting to read the opinions on not getting a prenup. Yes, a prenup is a legal contract, and when done correctly with competent legal counsel, it is very clear and holds weight in court (if you live in the right state). What else is a legal contract? Marriage. Marriage is a very poorly executed and ambiguous legal contract, which allows family law attorneys to manipulate their clients into fighting until one party is zeroed out. A prenup (and postnup) serve to correct a terrible and unconscionable contract. Most anyone who has been through the family law system understands the gravity of these concepts. The solution - prenup, or just avoid marriage altogether. (This includes “common law marriage” - check your state laws, and use a cohabitation agreement if necessary, or just do not move in together.)

We also have a pre nup. It's generous to me and will change the longer we are married. I pay half of almost everything. Even though he earns 5 to five times more. But that's just me. I love to contribute financially...makes me feel good... Fingers crossed we always love each other but this is second time around for us both. Pays to be careful. I recommend EVERYONE get a pre nup so many men get screwed over and it's not fair. Especially when they had wayy more when the relationship started. Anyways that's just my feelings and thoughts.

There's a reason why insurance companies and their sales people get so rich.

    I love Mr. PBD. He provides a ton of good-wise advice on business and financial matters. I really appreciate his challenge and call to live a virtuous life. This video has good practical advice. **For Roman Catholics and Eastern Catholics**---a prenuptial contract will invalidate your marriage in the Catholic Church. That means that a sacramental marriage will not take place. The Canon Law of the Church states: "Can. 1102 §1. A marriage subject to a condition about the future cannot be contracted validly." For Catholics considering a prenuptial contract, I recommend doing your research. Talk to your pastor and/or contact your local Diocesan Marriage Tribunal for more information. This space is too small to have a comprehensive discussion on how Catholic Theology of Marriage meets the financial world. Thank you Mr. PBD for the video. It has got me thinking on how to pastorally serve those couples who desire marriage and want to protect their assets.

    I wouldn’t mind signing a prenup if my SO didn’t make me sound like I was greedy and was with him for his bank account. That’s what happened in my last relationship and I was offended. I brought up how that hurt me and he got upset that I was upset. He didn’t know this, and I didn’t dare tell him, but my ex before him made ten times more. He cheated on me and I never made him owe me anything. Never laid a finger on him, never cussed at him, never destroyed any of his properties. I just walked away crying.. he said my refusal to take revenge and only showed him love really killed him. He said it was “the worse breakup.” He tried coming back months later, but I didn’t take him back. When I rejected him I rejected his 7 figures, too. I wish my last ex knew this about my past so he’d stop suspecting that I was only dating him for his money and that’s why he thinks I should sign a prenup. I’m still offended by those words to this day.

    Your past behaviour is not a predictor of future behaviour. Yourself cannot guarantee how you will behave in the future. Hence his request for prenup may have upset your value system… but it still was an honest way to protect you two from future conflict. You put your high ego and value system up front and preferred to be outraged rather than valuing the relationship. Good for you, it showed you that your ego matters more to you than what you thought this relationship could bring to you.

Draw up your exit strategy at the beginning and update it as you go, like any other business relationship will do.

    The problem is MEN need to enforce the prenup before marriage (if they are silly enough to get married). Men get manipulated by the woomin by her saying "you dont trust me", or theyl cry like little kids and the men cave and not get it. If a woomin has a problem with a prenup, drop her, she cannot be trusted. because she can also say she was pressured into the prenup. You as the man need to be willing to walk away if that happens.

    I’m glad I waited till no. 9 to comment. I wasn’t feeling this vid, until you made that point. That was fair and balanced.
