South Africans are discussing pre-nuptial agreements online. A prenup is a legal document signed by a couple - before marriage - which dictates how assets will be split up if the couple were to divorce or if the marriage is dissolved.

Peeps are sharing their relationship troubles as well as whether or not marrying in community of property is a good idea too.

Man raises question about millionaires not caring for others, Mzansi discusses the concept

In other news about social media discussions, Briefly News reported that @_Calculator (Just Garth) on Twitter opened a discussion online after they spoke about black millionaires. Garth asked the millionaires of SA who are black if they are able to sleep at night knowing that elders and others "go to bed hungry".

South Africans raised a lot of concerns about the question Garth asked with many wanting to know what the difference between white and black millionaires is and why he posed a question directed solely at Mzansi's black community.

Although the post gained just 257 likes on the bird app, the replies section was packed with heated debates on the matter.
