Prenups and day to day accounts are not that different for many people. Prenups are another way of preserving personal assets just as with having a separate account or separate investments. Preserving personal assets covers any change in the relationship.

I hate using celebrities as an example but Jay-Z and Beyonce's prenup allegedly includes millions for when she takes a break from performing and has children. He is essentially paying her for having children since she cannot pay herself as she is accustomed to (regardless of whether that money is typically deposited into her separate account or a joint account).
