96% of his income goes to alimony!

Given he is left with very little anyway I would just quit my job and therefore reduce the amount of alimony she could receive.

I’d really like to know how BLACK her soul is to be able to accept it.

Women could change this and end this crap TODAY. But they never will – because they are greedy, selfish c~~~s and the legal system knows it. Imagine what kind of a s~~~ storm it would create if the ex-wife said “your honor? No disrespect, but F~~~ YOU. Whatever you award me I’m going to give to him back…. and HE will decide what I was worth as HIS wife. I wasn’t married to you, you piece of s~~~. And I thank my personal God for it. How the f~~~ do you live with yourself?”…..,.. and then she turns to her husband and says “I loved you. I’m sorry it didn’t work out. I want you to decide what you think is fair”.

She would make world headlines. But there isn’t a woman on Earth who has the morality.
She will take every last dime even it breaks him and feel good about it.

I don’t know how these women live with themselves.

Title is misleading,  The 96% is for combined child and spousal support.  The article is from 2000, so things are quite likely to be different now.

The alimony portion is just pure garbage.  The are only 3 possible reasons from alimony.

1 – That women are inferior to men in general, and therefore deserving of support. If that’s the case then there should be no attempts for equality anywhere and women should get alimony from the state for simply existing .

2 – That the woman forgo her career for the sake of the marriage.  First you’d need to prove that.  You cannot say a waitress making minimum wage would have been a CEO if she hadn’t gotten married.  Second, are you saying the man doesn’t sacrifice his career for the sake of the marriage?  Where would he be without the marriage.  Third, she took the risk, why is she immune to the losses that come with risk?

3 – That the woman actually supported her husband’s career and made him more successful.  That she somehow earned that alimony.  If this is true, then she earned the benefits of said support while married.  She is no longer providing said support, while should she still receive the benefits?

There’s no good argument for alimony.  I’d say it will gone in 10 years.

Child support is a different matter.  I see it as a catch-22 situation.  However, this man’s case, child support should have never been calculated based on severance package, it should be based on current expected salary.  In my particular case, my base salary hasn’t changed much since my divorce, basically cost of living raises.  However, what has changed dramatically is the yearly bonus and employee stock.  None of this is guaranteed from year to year, and therefore, not considered part of my income for consideration of child support.

The tax aspect really p~~~es me off.  The fact that I am taxed on money I am not allowed to spend as I see fit is ridiculous.  Tax should be paid by the receiver of the child support.  They won’t ever do this though, as they rather tax me at the higher tax bracket, then her at the lower tax bracket. I’d even  be willing to pay more in child support to cover the additional taxes.  Hell, I’d be happy to give everything I pay and in taxes for child support to my kids and see them benefit from it then the government.  Think about it, the government makes the interest you pay on your home mortgage tax free, but the want the tax on child support?

I have heard a story like this around the year 2000 from one of my customer. This guy repaired aircraft world wide. He got paid real good however his ex wife kept on asking for more and more. Eventually he was heading to be barely to afford to pay rent and eat so he purposely got himself fired and went on welfare. He was more than happy to send money for his children however the selfish c~~~ had a bottomless pit.

In Canada, he has no worries about going to jail, as they don’t do that here. They do stuff like suspending your license and passport, and talking away the ability to apply for a hunting license. They will also garnish/repo what they can from the payor in arrears.

I had to register to correct this statement, in Canada you do in fact go to jail for missing child support payments. In British Columbia (the family laws are different for each province) you are accrued 3 days in jail for every missed support payment to a maximum of 30 days per child. At the 30 day mark they haul you into the court room and you get to explain in detail why you missed each payment. If you are unable to explain in a way that is satisfactory to the judge, you are put in jail. I personally witnessed a gentlemen be threatened by a judge with 60 days in jail because he missed support payments to two separate women for kids. The family law act was revised in 2013, I am not sure what it said regarding jailtime before that. Family maintenance can garnish your wages and has the power to revoke your drivers licence or come after your house.

Ha. A. Hear hear!

So basically what I said in “The Worst Divorce ever” topic about how the payment would probably have been 95%+ if there were kids involved was exactly right.

Why do MRA’s think they can change this s~~~? It’s the gynocentric gravy train. They think women are going to refuse winning the alimony lottery out of what…the goodness of their hearts? That politicians are going to risk losing popularity among women in order to to do what’s right? It’s idiotic.

Yes indeed.I have a cousin that if I ever hear from again I’m supposed to contact the authorities so they can throw him in jail. I won’t but I’m supposed to.

In Ontario the Family Responsibility Office can get things like your drivers license suspended and so on. The FRO has driven plenty of Men to take their life.
