Talking about 2nd marriage. I make $120k, he makes $5M.

Two convos we havent had-
1. Pre-nup. I was fully expecting him to bring it up but he hasn't. Should I bring it up?

2. If we combine finances, I'll be taxed into oblivion, right? I grew up poor so it's a scary thought to not have enough take home pay of my own. This also brings me back to point #1 that I want to be protected.

How would you handle this?

He’s not nearly rich enough to offset the awfulness of being a stepmom. Girl, reconsider.

Nope. Don’t do it. $5M is not that much anyway. Disaster in the making.

A guy who makes $5M/yr should be able to find a gold dig…..I mean women who has no baggage. I call BS.

Because in the same way that OP's future husband could inherit everything and leave nothing to the kids, their father could also do that with a new wife on his side. It's one of the worst things about being a child of divorce. If your parents aren't wise enough to take steps here, you lose whatever you would otherwise have had.
