I think you have to take each case on its own merit. There are so many factors to consider like age, relative wealth, stability of the partners, etc.

I tend to agree with those who are against prenups for younger couples where the wealth difference is not exceedingly great in comparison with the earning potential over a lifetime.

However, where a wealthy widow or widower gets married to a much younger person, and the children of the older person are dependent on their inheritance for their well being, a prenup would be mandatory in my view.

I wonder how all those against prenups would feel if wealthy old Dad married a twenty year old?
