I think marriage is overrated. Just a construct of society.

You can have kids with a partner, but really no reason to formalize it with “marriage”. I guess there are tax reasons though that make it more logical though.

I agree in principle, but getting married was a five figure a year tax reduction back when I did it.

Like it or not, the government unfairly taxes single people.

Do you live somewhere that allows income splitting?
