No one weds to later divorce, but most recognize at least the possibility that the person soon to be standing next to them at the altar might be a "future former spouse." Individuals of means will want to do what they can to protect against the financial consequences of that possible outcome, most commonly, perhaps, through a pre-nuptial agreement. However, when a pre-nuptial agreement appears impractical or impossible, undesirable or potentially unenforceable, complementary, or alternative strategies such as the self-settled spendthrift trust might be used.
