If you put any effort into choosing a spouse that's a good fit for you, I think most people can make a marriage (without kids) work. Having kids will absolutely bring any little problems up to a full boil, so that's something you need to know.

you are 100% correct here...prenup only for pre marital assets....basicalyl lists whats yours and mine BEFORE we got married so if we divorce we take whats ours.....IF you live in a community property state, its half half all the way for assets acquired during the marriage. If you inherited property or money during your marriage, with or without a prenup, those monies cannot be taken by your spouse...but you have to keep meticulous records and make sure you dont commingle the assets.
A prenup doesnt say anything about alimony or child support
