What are the Benefits of Marriage?

[IronMike]

I genuinely can only think of two

1. Someone to pick you up from the mechanic after dropping your vehicle off, thus saving you a 25$ uber
2. Someone nearly always available to go with you to sporting events, concerts, conventions, vacation, etc

There's no benefits if you don't have a prenup

 

[IronMike]

There's no benefits if you don't have a prenup

those are usually thrown out of courts due to lack of descriptors

 

[robotchicken]

the only benefit is the social factor literally.

if getting married was a new concept not forced by parents and friends nobody would do that shit.

You pay less tax if you're married

there is none

 

[shedontluv-U]

Genuinely nothing if it's not the legal one

Marriage today is meaningless

Exactly

100%, in my field, if you aren't married by 36, you run the risk of being at a disadvantage with promotions

You pay less tax if you're married

Any tax breaks you get from marraige are instantly offset by the cost of paying for another human being

Social proof is the only one I can think of

[IronMike]

[cortisolman2]

[IronMike]

Begone whiteboi

But you're already paying for another human before marriage so the tax becomes a benefit

 

[IronMike]

But you're already paying for another human before marriage so the tax becomes a benefit

not to that degree. now your wife is buying furniture to decorate the home more often, your paying for the wedding still, paying for her vehicle maintenance, possibly her vehicle, a extra 2K on your taxes does not cover that

 

[IronMike]

you can be on each other's health/dental/vision insurance plans

good point, but most men will have their wives on their work health insurance plans, so no benefit for us

Literally no benefits for the man. Marriage is only to satisfy the fairytale of women’s imagination of marriage

The main benefit of marriage is when you turn old, you are not alone at home.

I see daily many old couples (married ofc) fighting each other in front of me, with no care in the world, the only reason why they dont get a divorce is because at the end of the day they dont want to end up alone, even if it means living with someone that you know you are going to fight with everyday.

You finally stop being a virgin

being alone at home is the greatest thing ever. I've lived alone now for 7 years, and it is one of the best feelings OAT

that can be done with 200$

No prenup no benefits but even then the court can overrule it
