Questions about pre-nuptual agreements


What is the name of your state? wi

I have a friend that is planning a wedding in one year. Her soon to be husband, wants to only get married if there is a pre-nuptual agreement, in which there are no riches (yet), and they have been dating seven years. He just graduated from college with a Bachelors degree, in Finance and Real Estate, and he's expecting in the future to be well off.

With the laws of wisconsin, based off of my experience, it is a community property state.
In addition, they dont have much now, and have been living together for at least four years, so technically, they "both" have vested interest in what they have.

What type of bearing will a pre-nuptual agreement hold, if everything so far was built by both, and is there such-a thing that can protect you, from future wealth, and goods?

It this a good Idea to have?

Or are they waisting their time?

Really? I bet that would be news to the courts and the judicial system in Cheese ****ry.

It will have no bearing at all since it does not control unmarried couples.
