If your goal is to make sure that your children get your inheritance, then I don't think a prenup is the best way to achieve it. You can set up a trust or just have separate bank accounts or make other financial arrangements. I think a prenup is more appropriate for younger people, where one spouse has a lot of money and wants to protect it from a nasty divorce. One problem with a prenup is that you must disclose all of your assets or the prenup can be challenged and nullified.
