Some new age ppl don't marry they'll live like boyfriend & girlfriend with out getting married. Every body getting married wants a long marriage they don't want marriage to gold diggers but they don't know the future so divorce could be expensive.
I didn't think about life partner's are financial decisions. Life isn't about savings & pensions it's about spending it with the best life partner because it affect our finances. We're making financial decisions for our future & thinking about how we're going to get a better life.
It's in my opinion, the partner you marry will determine if you are going to be making good financial decisions or a gold digger that is going to make you go bankrupt. West is a very good example of this decision where you have to split half of your wealth with your wife where there is divorce later and even though your wife cheat, it doesn't put your feelings into any consideration, they are just after what you can offer her and not the evil thing she did to you.
Imagine that you have made life and make yourself to be a millionaire but you marry a wrong woman and then one day she decided to leave the marriage and all you have is just a million dollars and you didn't sign any prenup before the marriage, you like it or not you must split that money with her making leave millionaire status to become a common person and you think partner decision doesn't affect your financial status, unless you married from Africa where we don't see things that way.
