WHAT IS YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE BUSINESS OF. BEING MARRIED?
Now, I have seen bad deals, I have seen bad partnerships, I have seen many business deals in litigation-and litigation is not nice-but there is nothing worse than a man and woman who fight, especially when they are fighting over their assets, their business, their home, their cars, and everything else. It is terrible.
You were in love with somebody, and now you are no longer in love. The hatred is so intense, far more intense than it usually gets in a business transaction. There is nothing more vicious than a man or woman going through a divorce. It is pure hell, like nothing else I have ever seen. You need a prenuptial agreement to protect yourself and your business interests.
Marriage is a contract unlike any other contract in life. You marry for love, but your signature on the marriage certificate is all about rights, duties, and property. It's a legally binding contract that knows nothing of love.
If the love dies, all you have left is a resentful ex-spouse and the marriage certificate. There's nothing more terrible than an ex-spouse with a ten-ton axe to grind, and no agreement on bow your common property is to be divided. It usually leads to all-out war that is more vicious than any legal battle in business and could easily lead to your financial and emotional ruin.
Always get a prenup. It's just too risky not to.
