I think we discuss in prenuptial agreements for millennials support issues a lot, spousal support or alimony maintenance, you may know it as.
I think that whereas before that was a hot ticket in terms of how much this person will actually need if we end up divorcing, this is much more, let's take a look at what we're living on now, what our lifestyle is now and what that might look like if we split up and who's the breadwinner or who's making more in a dual income family and who might have to kick a little bit over to the other one to keep that playing field level.
I have a famous story about my client saying to me, you know, we've had all these discussions about how she's not going to work anymore after we have kids.
And I'm OK with that.
But I want something in there saying that she will lose the baby weight within a six month period of time.
And I was like, bro.
I'm not putting that in here because it is unenforceable.
And yes, people can agree to anything.
And if people both believe that they're going to stand by their word, you want to put that in there and it's motivational, fine.
If one person said, I didn't do it or I didn't lose the baby weight or I didn't, you know,
stay with this maintenance of weight that I agreed I would.
And you took it to a judge, the judge would say, I can't enforce that.
That's unconscionable.
That's against public policy.
