Eric Johnson will be set for life...that is, if he can stay married to Jessica for long enough.

It's good to be Mr. Jessica Simpson! Eric Johnson, who will wed the singer/fashion designer later this year, has reportedly worked out a prenup with his fiancée that guarantees him bundles of cash!
According to Star Magazine via Celebitchy, Jessica (and her father Joe Simpson) learned a valuable, financial lesson after she married (and divorced) Nick Lachey without a prenup and are supposedly determined to protect Jessica's billion dollar brand of music, clothes, and shoes, should she and Eric not live happily ever after.
"Eric is on what you might call a vesting plan," said an insider to the magazine. "He'll get $500,000 as a wedding present. Then, on each anniversary, he'll get another $200,000. If he and Jessica make it to five years of marriage, he'll get an additional $500,000 bonus — and a $1 million bonus if they make it to 10 years."

With a salary like that, we're guessing the former NHL player won't be hunting for a job anytime soon, especially if he and Jess have kids right away. In the meantime, the former reality star has already been spoiling her hubbie-to-be with trips to New York, London, and Paris — and plenty of money to spend on his own.
"They already have a joint checking account," added the source, "and Jessica also gave him his own high-limit Visa Black Card and an American Express Platinum card!" Is Jessica Simpson's New Man Using Her?
Does Eric Johnson deserve to have a $200,000 pay-out, considering his future wife's immense wealth, or is Jessica essentially be paying him to stay married to her?
