Well, in the state of California, or in any state
recognizing equality in divorce proceedings, half
of joint assets/income are awarded each party.

So one might assume the person seeking the prenup
has no interest in sharing half of it.

Maybe they had it a long time, first.
Maybe they have been through it once or twice already.
Maybe there are children to protect.

Whatever the reason, they feel a need to limit the
after-the-love-is-gone distributions.

I am ambivalent about it, I can see pros and cons
of them.

'Kinhell, what happened to the fairytale ending.

Do you believe in a prenup if there is a big asset discrepancy?

Yes.. when I first got married ( at 18) I insisted on one... so when it ended she got the 1973 Pinto hatchback and my Jimmy Hendricks's posters (including the black light)
