Re: prenup agreement
This is not completely correct. Courts look at several types of property.
Husband's sole managing separate property
Wife's sole managing separate property
joint managing community property
etc
so as long as you can trace your funds you shouldnt have an issue, do you have a local attorney?
Re: prenup agreement
Your question involves a number of issues. As a general proposition, whatever you owned prior to marriage is your separate property and will not be divided by the court. But, there are things about the type of property you are talking about, and how your property has been handled, paid for, and mixed that may give rise to claims on your wife's behalf.
You need more legal advice than can be given here.
