Protecting Assets From a Divorce

[MandelbrotSet]

Quote from Billy Valentine:

Get a first-hand recommendation as to who is the absolute best divorce lawyer in your state, and go see them no matter what it costs.

Sounds harsh, but he's being your friend.

You're thinking mainly with your other head now, and we all hope the party continues.

But in case you ever come crashing back down to earth, you'd better have a "chute", or the landing is going to be brutal.

And yeah, I'm divorced too and don't know if I'll ever go down that path again ... maybe if I find one with a magic *****.

P.S. And remember, if the carousel ever stops, somebody is going to be getting fucked over, try to make sure it isn't you, OK. You're guy friends are just going to laugh at you if it is.

Quote from drsteph:


Seems to me that marrying the right person is your best defense.

Great in theory, but it takes about 5 years to know if the person is right. A lot of damage can be done in that time. :eek:

watch her reaction. that's all u need to know.

if she fools you at least you were married to a great actress.

Quote from aeliodon:

I'm gonna get married in 2009.

I will ask for a prenup. But I hear that in most foreign countries, prenups are not recognized by the courts. I also hear that in America, whether a prenup is upheld or not largely depends on the judge.

Hey man, something that occured to me.

Are you caucasian and is she of another race?

Just wondering, because chicks love get on the dole from you guys, while doing everything they really want to do before, during and after the marriage.

Just a a heads up.

If you really want to protect your ass(ets), don't get married.

Quote from aeliodon:

So I ask, what are some other ways to protect assets from a divorce?

Just open a swiss bank account in your name and you will be fully protected. They are not require to send over money in a divorce, only in illegal actions. i.e. tax fraud, etc...

 

[psytrade]

set up the a shell company and tell her your assets are locked up hedge funds....

 

[toc]

Swiss bank accounts charge reverse interest for secrecy etc.

The point is to declare the assets and still not lose them in the event the chick tries to smart out later. How about declaring all the money as a debt from parents, so in the event of divorce, creditors come first so money goes back to parents and they buy you a pizza and beer every once in a while.

If you have problems within the family in trusting people, the better not get married.

Too be honest, I'm a misogynist . I've never met a girl I respected. They are all shady pigs. That being said, I don't want to be alone and its nice to have someone to cook and clean after you. Kids would be nice too.
Marriage is an unavoidable issue when you're with a girl for a while cause as she gets older she gets constantly harrassed by her friends and family about when is she gonna get married.

I'm not even rich but I definitely will be because I'm making more money each month with improved consistency. 2009 may be a 7 figure year for me. I just want to protect my future earnings.

LOL, what a great, honest post.

So long as you're about 35 or under, it's still all good with you. If you're pushing past 40, and this is what you want, you'd better starting making your compromises and get on with it.

I'm still not sure about where the girl is from, but I've met a lot of foreign (asian & european) women that I actually liked and respected (and there has been more than one thread touting their good points). The American version is a whole different story, and your words actually would be considered rather kind.

Whatever you decide, Lawyer-up now or pay later.
