Default Re: a crash course in prenups

guids,

If she stayed at home to take care of the kids and do the cooking (my impression is that you're looking for a very conventional domestic woman), she is saving you lots and lots of money that you would have otherwise spent. So in some sense, a good chunk of what you sock away during the marriage is money you earned precisely because she was in a spot to be taken advantage of in that way.

Im not asking her to do any of this though. Thats the real problem I have. I want her to do whatever she is happy doing, if this means cooking every night, great (and srsly, this isnt saving me much money, plus no girls nowadays even know how to cook). If she wants to work, awesome. Just be logical about things is all I ask. Also, her cooking <<<<<< the stuff Id buy her.

A better way to put this:


I am 25, single, Im doing just fine on my own, I cook, do my own laundry, drive a nice car, have a nice place, I make a good chunk of money, Im in little debt, so why should I "pay" my wife to do any of these things?
