They may be considered as evidence of intentions.
A pre-nup isn't just about financial matters. Its about the couple stating what their expectations are.
Trust me during a divorce things can get *really* bitter and money becomes only *one* of several cudgels the parties use to beat each other.

Basically the parties are saying to each other this is what I expect..eg us going out and having a candle-lit dinner once a week...help with the ironing, washing up...its not absolute but if the couple are having problems it allows them to look again at whats going wrong

Prenups reek of financial insecurities... it shows your weaknesses and vulnerabilities. in the event if something goes wrong, how a little piece of paper is going to protect you? it's just beyond me...

I know the Islamican girls are distracting, but pay closer attention. Legal brought it up about 5 pages ago. Twice.
