Pre-nuptuals

Everything I own is in MY name and therefore it can't be taken away by the other person. Anything before the marriage that that person owned, remains that persons item and can't be taken away legally.

I guess that varies from state to state, but here in MO, everything is up for grabs regardless of who owned it before the marriage.

In my case, I'll have to do a prenup. My dad and I have several properties that we have joint ownership on, and I can't risk losing something that isn't totally mine.
