[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the feedback. I saw a lot of sexist/misogynistic posts. To clarify, I'm the man in the relationship and SO is female.

Both of us understand that her income will be higher soon after she starts working and it makes sense to prioritize that. The assumptions I have made about stepping down at work, etc. are only if I have to.. i.e. No kids, nothing happens. If I can work remote or her job is at a location where my company operates, I transfer, etc. If we do have kids, I will absolutely step down to a very high WLB job to prioritize kids. We have seen how a few other families with two high-income/high-stress jobs operate and that's not for us.

My intention with the pre-nup was to be able to control my funds should things go wrong in the medium-term, not necessarily corral those funds as 'mine' forever.  Any income we make during our marriage would be shared 50/50 regardless of who makes it. 10-15 years down the road, I expect out marital assets to more than exceed my personal assets at which point I have no issues co-mingling everything.

Many of us knew you were male.

Because [b]only a male would write and ask this.[/b]

“10-15 years once we have many millions ill feel comfortable putting in my stuff from my 20s”  lol. You are too selfish to be getting married. You had better decide quickly if you want to bean count or build a life together with someone. [/quote]

That is nonsense. I am a woman and also felt this way.

As it turned out, my spouse was disabled shortly after we married and I have been the sole earner for 20 years. So: not selfish, either.

Take your 50s gender ish elsewhere[/quote]
