acquired community of assets

My comment:

Once again, this is an image; they are comparing the community to a "marriage" where there is not Total Community of Assets.

This is what happens when sons and daughters of rich and poor families get married. The rich families don't allow a total community of assets to safeguard their fortunes. But they can share what they acquire after the marriage (not before, though).

This is why I'm still single !!! :)
