    Yeah, Paul was the one who gave such business advice to Michael Jackson, who then proceeded to buy up the publishing rights to the Beatles' catalog.

    Yeah I know, but Linda was an Eastman of Eastman Kodak so im sure that her family helped Paul with the investments.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

    Actually she wasn't
    It is often stated that Linda McCartney is related to the Eastman Kodak dynasty. This is a myth and McCartney had no connection with the family, as she herself explained in an interview. Her maiden name of Eastman was an anglicised version of her family's original name, Epstein.

    I doubt that very much. It's guesstimated that she could get as much as 200 mil at the most. The court system in England is not gonna allow her much more. They will protect SIR Paul.

    As for prenups, and Paul not signing one, I have no problem with that.

    Marriage is suppose to be about love and trust.

    If you feel that is not there, and you need a prenup, then you probably shouldn't be getting married.

    It's not a business transaction. It's about a committed relationship to each other.

    And after all, Paul knows that "money can't buy me love".
    Ummm, actually it is. When you sign that marriage contract, there is now a third party involved in your relationship: The State. It is no longer a romanticized solemn vow between two people: You have entered into a contract, and if you don't protect yourself beforehand, there is a greater than 50% chance (the divorce rate in this country) you will lose half the assets you bring into the marriage.

    Circumstances change, emotions change, people change (or perhaps your understanding of them does).

    Any man(or woman) who possesses any sort of net worth that they don't want to take a 50% of having cut in half is insane for getting married without a pre-nup.

    Then if she really loved him, she wouldn't take the money, especially given the amount of time she was with him.

    A prenup protects everybody in case things don't work out. In LeaveIttoBeaverVille there's no need for locks on our doors. We also don't wear seat belts because no one has car wrecks. Kids play unsupervised. Things are supposed to be fine and perfect.

    There is nothing wrong with signing a prenup, especially since McCartney made every single dime of that money without her assistance. He shouldn't have to give that much money to her because things didn't work out.

    Marriage should not be an opportunity to get rich off of someone else's hard work.

    I wish the law protected people like him more. Someone could just come along and be totally fooling someone just to get their hands on some easy cash.
