You know, my parent were married just a couple of years before I was born and my father was 52 when I was born and my mother was 38...it happens!
Yep. My grandparents were 43 and 40 when they had my father. I have at least three female friends who have recently given birth in their early 40's. Also, plenty of people get married with no desire to have children.

It wasn't talking about having children. Getting married at 52 is a huge risk. People usually have too many assets by then to put them in danger like that. But there are fools for everything I suppose.

I see. Unfortunately, my uncle lost his wife to heart failure about 14 years after they married. She was younger than he was and one morning when he woke up she was not there. They found her outside.

People tend to marry people with similar levels of "assets" in my experience. Unless they're marrying a much younger trophy, in which case they're probably going to have a prenup.

That is tragic but it's still a huge risk in case of divorce.

Well, there is always the risk of divorce. The most popular cause of divorce is.........marriage!
It happens. If a person is worried they may become divorced and wants to protect their assets, there is always a prenuptial agreement. Furthermore, if they are truly worried about that, they should probably just not marry the person.
Marriage is about love and commitment, no matter the age. If a person waits until later in life for whatever the reason may be, they are still entitled to love and be loved and the bond of matrimony.
If they are that concerned with their assets, they may not be the best candidate for marriage as it is.

When I re-marry, it will be to a man who has never been married and has plenty of assets. I will not have many of my own.
At this time, we share everything. I don't care about his 'things' and I don't want them.
When I got separated, I left my marriage with hardly anything. I didn't need anything from him. I did not want part of his 401k or retirement from our divorce.
There are actually some people out there like that...
The prenup may not hold up as expected and
she can go through tons of his money while they are married.
I guess that's a risk inherent in having "tons of money" and marrying the wrong person. That's not really something most of us in the real world have the luxury of needing to worry about.
