Default Re: Prenup or not Prenup?

I'm getting married and we have no intention of having a pre-nup. Technically, because of the house, I have more 'assets' then him. He has more cash. We've joked about it before. All he wants is his DVD collection. I personally don't think in our lives it would make any difference and I think a pre-nup in planning for failure. Many people will argue that with me, and that fine, that's their opinion and I have mine.

I could possibly understand if there were a situation were there was a large difference of assets, or children from a previous relationship, but if there's not than someone already believes the marriage is going to fail before they walk down the isle and are hedging the bet in their favor.
