Are you kidding? Pre-nups are about money. "Honey, I love you and want to spend my life with you. I just don't trust you, so I'm going to keep this account away from you so you can't touch it."

That's one way to look at it. If you have nothing going into a marriage, then it's easy to believe that the marriage is all about the love you feel for each other.

If you have a lot of assets going in and/or you've been through a divorce and understand that love doesn't always last forever, then I can understand how you might want a little more reassurance.

I'm not saying that you're wrong...only that there are different points of view that are equally valid. How valid those points of view are depends on where you're standing. To some, a pre-nup is a way of saying "I love you for you and not for your money."

I recall we all laughed at the Mrs. Heinz kept her money out of Mr. Kerry's hands...
