ParticipantI’ve had a similar experience, VoZangre. She had horrible credit, liens from the IRS, the works. I wanted to take care of her nevertheless, and I did for a long time. I just couldn’t allow my own financial future to depend on her financial judgment. Selfish? Perhaps, but how can she turn to you for security if you allow her to destroy that security, inadvertently or otherwise?

ParticipantMy last reference to you was tongue-in-cheek, Marion. My only point is that if I exercised the same financial prudence in considering marriage as most Piggingtons do buying a home, then I’d need to double my assets first, unless someone’s discovered a truly sure way to keep separate assets separate.

ParticipantSDR, I see it as the flight to safety easing up a little. Why? Because the Paulson bailout made it clear that the big people will be working very hard to solve the various problems.

Participant“legally all assets accumulated prior to marriage are not community property”. What happens if those previous assets require some upkeep after the marriage, like a house would? It seems that might taint the separate property quality of the previous assets.
I’m not an attorney. I wonder if the only way to really be sure that prior assets don’t become community property is to put them in a fully self-sustaining trust, with other assets that generate enough income to pay any upkeep expenses.
And I’ve heard relying on a pre-nup is like tossing a coin… Maybe it’ll work, maybe not. You’ll never know it doesn’t work until you need it.
I can’t afford to live on half of what I’ve accumulated, and I don’t see how it’s OK to just hope that doesn’t happen, so I am… still single. When I get to double my current assets, I’ll give you a call, Marion, unless there’s a kindly attorney out there who can show now there’s a cast-iron way to preserve separate pre-marriage assets!
