Maybe. Some call it adventure. Hit the road and see where it takes you (international travel would probably be more difficult). As far as a will, some people actually don't care once their dead. Then again some people dont have any assets to bequest nor can afford great accommodations.
Hey, just saying there are many people who do not look ahead, they live in the moment. And I do know people who just take off and find a hotel room near their destination. And they dont have wills. So, there.
Oh, the high adventure thing I get. I wouldn't do it, but I get it. Go where the wind blows, yadda yadda.
People who don't leave wills are selfish bc that leaves a lot of fighting and other work to be done amongst the remaining family.

I agree. My father would never discuss his funeral arrangements and when the topic was brought up he would just say, oh, just throw my body out in the yard.
C'mon guys. Be good troopers and go along with the wealth redistribution. How dare you even think of a possibility that your future wife would divorce you for legit reasons like..."I'm bored" or "I'm just not happy anymore". That never happens.
I'm in medical school to be a doctor someday. I'll have a lot to protect when that day comes but thanks for being condescending towards me though . More than half of marriages fail and women are the ones who usually file for divorce. Love is not unconditional anymore so why not protect myself? It's my decision and I'm not going to argue about it.
So the answer to my question " Do you "HAVE" ( not will you some day have) substantial assets to protect the answer would be NO, I do not.
Which led to my second question ... " if you do not have assets to protect" what would be the purpose of having a prenup? How is that being condescending towards you?
If you in deed are in medical school, become a doctor and " some day" make substantial money a prenup would make sense.... No argument there.
Maybe I can re-ask in the general sense ( that way you won't be offended).
49ersfan... Do you think that a prenup would be in order if one hasn't substantial assets to protect?
Your comment about divorce was a straw man... Just because it may be the woman who files doesn't mean that he's the automatic victim, but if it makes you feel better to say it... Rock on.
Yeah it is right. I'm a first year student but work in retail during the weekends. It's kind of a pain because I really don't have any free time anymore.
My husband and I have a prenup. He had substantial assets that he doesn't want to lose in the event of divorce. Being married isn't just a religious thing, it's a legal contract. We didn't get married simply because we loved each other. Though that IS the majority of the reason. But there are other legal ramifications of being married. Which means that we looked at it a legal contract, and when looking at it that way, we also looked at what would happen if one of us breached the contract and what those consequences would be.
We are a practical couple. We love each other and have built a life together, but we could have done that without being married. Because we wanted to join our lives legally for some very practical reasons, we looked at it from all angles. Including what would happen if we divorced. It doesn't mean we love each other any less than any couple without a pre-nup.
Oh, and I kept my own last name. I'm a double heathen!

What kind of med school leaves you time to pursue a job for enough hours to offset tuition?
Most of us didn't have time to freakin' exercise, let alone work all weekend.
In any case, you can forget your pie in the sky dreams of mucho moolah that requires vigilant protection. You'll be comfortable but it's not some special situation that other people in normal jobs don't also have.

Or "I'm tired of you inserting your penis into unauthorized orifices".
