 to be fair
	to be fairif I were marrying someone much wealthier than me, or marrying someone less wealthy than me, and the pre-nup was fair, i'd sign it. greggs hat had a beautician (don't ask, I wish I hadn't) who was apparently very hot, and some dumbass rich banker had married her for it. they were married for 6 months, no kids, split up, and she promptly went for his house and half his cash. if they'd been married 16 years and he'd cheated, maybe, but why does she think she's entitled to all that? grrrr.

 i didn't read the paperwork, obviously
	i didn't read the paperwork, obviouslybut there must be massive grounds for argument over the terms of the sharing. hence his lawyers fighting hers.
but morally, she's got a lot of questions to answer, if she thinks that living with someone for 6 months entitles her to a free house.

 That's not how the courts interpret it now.
	That's not how the courts interpret it now.They consider all sorts of things; what assets each had prior to the marriage, joint assets acquired during the marriage, the length of the marriage (and the length of time spent cohabiting before the marriage), earning capability of each person, what the lower earning partner needs to live on etc.

 Oh good, you're back x
	Oh good, you're back xI would imagine the answer is 'yes' to both. I saw a tattoo the other day, belonging to a chap I know, which I thought said 'PIMP'. I asked him about it and he said that was what everyone thought, but on closer inspection it says 'PIMM', either a shortened version of his surname or his favourite drink. Either way, it was distinctly shitter than 'angry sun'.
