MGTOW - Protecting your assets in a marriage (self.MGTOW)

emgeetao が 投稿

Hi everyone, I've been reading these reddits for a while now and while I agree with the majority of all the points hardcore MGTOWers prescribe to, I also wonder if there is a way to have your cake and eat it too?

One of the key issues in today's society is not getting fisted by divorce settlements/alimony etc. How does one prevent this? (other than the obvious way of not getting married or co-habiting or anything that might be deemed as common law).

I am a Canadian citizen working in Hong Kong at the moment. Both countries are are pretty similar as they derive their laws from UK. I have not studied law but the basic idea is that they take 50% and potential alimony and further payments to come. In HK, prenups can be taken into "consideration" but they are not legally binding to the word.

I have received advice that if you marry in US and you sign a pre-nup it is very clear cut and prenup trumps all so you can protect all your assets.

Really interested to hear your thoughts and expertise on this area.

Thanks! Emgeetao

Not true. In the US judges can throw them out even if it's a legal prenup.

Unconscionable Terms

The terms of your prenup must not be unconscionable, particularly if your state does not impose a waiting period between the time of the signing and your wedding, or if your spouse waived her right to separate legal counsel – that is, if a lawyer would have told her that what she was agreeing to was blatantly unfair. An unconscionable premarital contract is one that is so grossly one-sided, the judge would have to wonder about the circumstances under which your spouse signed it. For example, if your agreement states that everything you earned or acquired before your wedding is yours, that all property acquired during your marriage is yours, and that your spouse has no right to either spousal support or an equitable division of property, the court will probably void your prenup because its terms are unconscionable.

So call it a "prenuptial suggestion".

Marriage is a serious financial assets contract, that women throw away like a high school romance. And then we have to pay them.
