Man speak jumping in with his two cents worth.

To me at this stage of the game of life if someone isn't financially responsibl they are a no go. Character tells everything about a person you need to know, looks fade, bodies droop, but character is a lifetime achievement.

Now as far as equivelant I found when I was involved with someone...lets say less in the money category...the relationship usually failed, they just live in different worlds than I do. A year ago I was still in the camp of "its love damn the torpedo (prenup) full speed ahead, now I'm not so sure I would be willing to marry someone with out a Nup, my kids future isn't worth the chance.

Example of what can happen: I joked in the past about my ex being from the wrong side of the tracks and now she has gone back, that actually isnt far from the truth. I was a little rich kid, my father was a senior executive at a very large company before he retired and started his own company. They never spoiled me growing up but I never did without things and was a country cub kiddie. My ex came from a broken home where the mom struggled to put food on the table. Where am I now.....she is rich and I am broke. Of course I will make more money and be fine and she will burn through what she has in a few months and be broke again and we both will return to our normal stations in life.

Sounds harsh and bitter and some of it probably is but it is also the truth.

Money isnt everything but it sure doesnt suck having some.

Edit:

Forgot to add. Mal I'd sign a prenup for you, don't forget I cook as well as have my own assets. (although the assets column isnt what it once was, I am debt free with the exception of my home)
