We are all missing one really important point.

Maybe she IS worth a thousand a year. Spitzer paid, what, $4000 a night?

My mind is boggling.
Unless she's Sean Connery...or the female equivalent ;)...I can assume she isnt. Most people JUST ARENT that Adonis-like in appearence hehe :p

But we don't know!!!!

And yes, OP, I am making a point. If you want to be paid like a whore, you should, at least, act like one.

Sad to think that, that is the only thing that makes a person worthwhile...
Yes - now you are seeing the light. It is sad to think that your love and devotion to this man should be reduced to a dollar figure.

OP you're sorely missing the point we are all trying to demonstrate to you here. It may be about love in his world but he also sees this as a potential disaster for him should you divorce. He is trying to protect what he has worked for from the person who has worked for nothing. Do you think he just might have a small idea of WHY you're marrying him? Maybe which I'm going to assume is the reason he's demanding the prenup. He's trying to protect himself from you!

I didn't come to this site to be "beat up!" verbally and treated as though I am a golddigger, whore, etc...I came to find out what is legal under the eyes of the marital ohio law for myself should we divorce.
Sad..What would Jesus say to all your berates and accusations? I feel sorry for anyone you claim you Love! If they don't have a job or money....

Bottom line.

In the event of a divorce, the marital assets would be subject to certain legal provisions. That being said, he is allowed to require a prenup with the terms he requests as a condition of marriage. You are free to:

1. Agree to the prenup.
2. Make a counter-offer.
3. Forget the whole thing.

Whether you choose 1, 2, or 3 he may (or may not) marry you. You may (or may not) marry him. 95% of this isn't the kind of question strangers can answer for you whether they're lawyers or not.

Incidentally, getting an equal share of the assets accrued during the marriage has a flip side. I'll bet you can guess what that flip side is.

OP, if you love this man (and it really isnt about money) then sign the prenup and be happy with him. If not, then we (and probably him too) are all right in that you really are just looking for a long term payday.

And by the way, you've been given whats legal under Ohio law regarding divorce, you just dont seem to like the answers.

What would Jesus say?

I missed the part of the Gospel that says, "Take from a marriage that which you think you are entitled for the act of marriage."

I also don't remember, "If a man takes a woman in marriage and makes her move from her hearth and home, he should be prepared to pay her gold for the time until she returns."

You aren't a gold digger. Fine. Then sign.

Jesus would have been appalled at the thought of divorce at all... He did say, "Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her who is divorced commits adultery.”

further, He would been shocked at planning not only the divorce but a set dollar amount per year of marriage.

You should be very careful what you ask for.

Alright..as said I have no problem signing a pre-nup for protection of his assets before marriage. And according to everyone here, I hopefully find a job to survive a divorce should there be one..for i have no protection otherwise.

WHY are you expecting a spouse to provide financial protection at all?!

Op i'm done with you. You arent going to get anything we're saying here. You dont care. All you want is for some poor sap to take care of you and then keep taking care of you after you divorce. Thats just disgusting. No, love and money do not equal to dollar signs which is why you need to just sign the prenup and let that nonsense go because to not sign, and subsequently argue, makes it about the money. In all actuality it really is you thats making love come with a dollar sign attached. You're pitiful if you think anyone is going to tell you otherwise and I feel sorry for you. If my hubs and I were to divorce tomorrow I would be fine as guess what, i've spent years making sure I had these things in my back pocket as a just in case. Do I think hubs and I will ever divorce? Heck no! But do I want to make sure i'm secure in case we do? Heck yes and thats WITHOUT him giving me money...which I would never in a million years ask for anyway! You truly should be ashamed for yourself...but something tells me you are lacking in the shame department which is why you're on a legal forum asking how you can sack your soon to be ex husband (provided he stupidly tears up that prenup) for money that you contributed nothing to earn

oo so he'd much rather the wife live in a homeless shelter.."because of the hardness of your hearts." and not soo much dollar amount but the fact I would have nothing to pick up and move on with.
