call me old fashioned, but isn't "the lifestyle to which she's become accustomed" something that hinges on being married to a guy? i mean, philosophically speaking, just because someone married rich and lived a glamorous life whilst married into wealth doesn't mean that they've always been rich from day 1 out of the womb, so why can't she "become accustomed" to living life at the level she was at b4 she was married?

you know, it's like if i found a giant bag of cash on the street with a few million in it, i reckon i'd "become accustomed" to the "lifestyle" of having $$$, but once the $$$ is gone i'd have to "become accustomed" to a life without a giant bag of cash... or would i be able to sue the bag of cash for monthly payments to continue the lifestyle i'm accustomed to?

it's funny to me that we lambast certain laws/mentalities as being antiquated (if they don't almost exclusively benefit females) yet other ones like this are prolly in "over my cold dead body" territory cuz i can't see any women wanting to ever give this advantage up. i bet there's some people out there who have schemed that they can marry rich between ages 20-30 and invest a few years in that, then they get out by/around age 30 and get a nice 6-7 figure annual salary locked and they can still catch the tail end of their prime knowing that no matter what they've always got 6-7 figures/year.

TLDR = it's always good to look like a super/model, eh? =D

The concept is that she may have been a brain surgeon a rocket scientist had she not instead devoted herself to changing the diapers of a hockey player's brat(s).

Blackhawks are leaking this to make people think women who fuck hockey players are just sluts looking for money. .

Does she have to demonstrate or list what she's spending the child support money on? How can you possibly spend that much money on a 3yr old?

Doesn't matter. It is based on 20% of your income. At least in Illinois that is the percentage for 1 child.

Im pretty hammered right now.

I remember seeing Alonzo Spellman in court vs. his remarkably tiny Asian ex. I've never seen a guy that otherwise imposing look as frail. She looked absolutely deadly. She was hot, but looking @Spellman, I couldn't imagine trying to say hello to her.

It may have been a couple of months later were he was off wandering down streets & Singletary was "saving him".

It's not really that.

It is more about the significant others role in getting the person to where they were. She was dating him since they were 16. She put in a lot of work and made a lot of sacrifices that helped him get to where he is too. A good example seems to be Tiger Woods pre and post divorce.

Getting married is like a business arrangement. If that arrangement falls through both sides are given consideration for being part of it.

There is a reason all these athletes get married. There is a benefit to it for them also. If Keith had been stuck in the minors for his whole career and she became the next Ginger Zee I'm sure he'd be expecting to live the lifestyle too.

Do people not marry for love any more?

Straight people don't.

Of course it is also for love, but it is a business transaction, and should always be viewed as one prior to signing up for it.

Do people not marry for love any more?

I do not know about you, but I did not marry my wife to get ahead via money or politics or because of eye candy on my arm.

Well Mac told me to to tell you to go FUCK YOURSELF!!! ..So now it's been said .. .

I need to hear Julie DeCaro's take on this,

Neither did I, but it doesn't change the fact that it is also a business transaction.

We had similar goals and philosophies on money and we talked about them prior to being married. Given that I think the number one reason for divorce is money issues I think that was a smart discussion to have.

infidelity has to be the number one reason
