Last Alimony Payment

[TaxGuyParticipant]

Dropping that bad boy in the mail in a few minutes. I remember when I was still in the 40’s for how many more payments I had left, feeling like it was never going to end. And here it is today, last one. I still have child support payments but those are peanuts compared to the alimony. Funny in my state they call it spousal support but I’ve never called it that. She’s not my spouse anymore. Spousal support was all the money she spent when we were married. I think it irritated her that I would call it alimony, but who cares. Her happiness is no longer my problem.

When I walked out the door, or rather was thrown out, I was stuck with the “divorce debt” and giving her 60% of the money I had saved for “our” retirement. She hadn’t saved a dime. Now despite getting several thousand dollars a month for 7 years she is still broke and I have paid off all of the debt and have saved six figures back into my retirement accounts. But then again I don’t have Amazon Prime deliveries to my front door every day either. It’s amazing the amount of money women can spend on nothing.

Not every day since the divorce has been a good day. But this one sure as hell is.

I watched a documentary last week about Clarence Clemons. For those that don’t know he was the sax player in the E Street Band, Bruce Springsteen’s band. He died a couple years ago. One of his friends said whenever they talked they ended it with “Order the good wine”. Meaning life is to be celebrated, to be fun. Take care of business but leave a little room for fun. I’m going to change my tagline to that in honor of the Big Man. A reminder to everyone to remember to celebrate yourself.

Have a great weekend Gentlemen. And don’t forget to order the good wine.

Good for you Tax Guy. Again, living well is the best revenge.

This is great, man. Time to celebrate indeed.

Great news!

Awesome news Tax Guy! I remember that day and it felt so f~~~ing good! Here’s something I wrote about all that bulls~~~ and how I felt.

On Friday, July 20, 2018, a check was deposited into my account for the full amount of money I earned for the last two weeks. While that may sound routine, realize that it is the first time in 3 ½ years I was paid what I earned.
Imagine that you’re paid every two weeks but you’re forced to give a portion of it to someone who hasn’t earned it. Has no right to it but still takes it with no misgivings. You’re told you have to give this person a portion of your wages because you lived with them for a time. Tell me how you’d feel. If you agree with that thinking, that “justice”, then you don’t know the American way. They have no right to your money. They didn’t even work to earn it. They just take it.
If you think it’s right to take another persons money because you think “you deserve it” but you haven’t worked for any of it, you should be ashamed. On Friday, July 20, 2018, I finally received what I earned.

Very cool. And I finally understand how good it feels. At least I will in two weeks.

We had a member on here for a while called May 15, 2020. That’s the date of his last payment. That guy went through hell. I hope he’s doing okay. And now he only has 5 payments to go. I hope he comes back one last time and tells us his last payment story.

The Exit Tax.

Usually worth paying.
Been some good words here lately about how life goes on. Most times men can recover and prosper.

Women rarely can sustain prosperity. Those babes are few and very far between.

Just rolling down the road

Great story, and great tagline. Very happy for you.

It’s absurd, unfair, obscene. Especially when in my case (and many others), she is living with another guy who is supporting her. It really is state endorsed prostitution where you pay in large monthly payments at end of relationship based on your income when you split…even if there was no sex. So progressive!!!

To make it truly equitable, the state would mandate you could fu​ck her any which way you pleased X times a month based on what you are paying her.

If she doesn’t agree to that, then no alimony. Not fair that only one party in the contract gets fu​cked.

Just goes to show a girl is nothing more than property.

Mortgage Payments
Car Payments
Sears Payments
Alimony Payments

ha ha. Empowerment my ass. They are property, they choose it, they know it, and they love it. Which means they are the worlds biggest liars. Women are the devil.

Order the good wine. For yourself!

Congrats Tax Guy!
I honestly don’t remember how good it felt to make that last payment.
I just kept on going the way I was because I was soooo far in the hole from the divorce.
I do remember one day a friend at work said: “So…. your payments should be over by now; howsit (sic) feel to finally be free?”
I remember breathing in some fresh air and just smiling.
It was only a financial turning point; I had to put it all past me and parts of my past lingered.
Today i am truly free as that which had lingered has been dissolved to nothing. I don’t even have pictures of my prior marriage.

LIFE — is what YOU make (of) it.
Order the good wine!

Marry again, Hell NO ! ( Even JESUS was hung on a cross just once)

That is awesome news, TaxGuy! I’m happy for ya’.

I was very fortunate and didn’t have to pay alimony. I had to pay child support, but only for a year. However, I was still having money problems right after the divorce, because I still had previous debt and then I had this new house payment. My bank account went down to almost nothing.

I do remember how good it felt though, making that last child support payment. Then making that last motorcycle payment, last truck payment, last shed payment……… Little by little I was getting stuff paid off and my bank account started growing again.

I don’t have a lot of money, but I still feel kinda’ rich because I have more money now than I ever had when I was married. Don’t like buying new appliances, but it’s nice to have the money when one goes out. Fridge died. No problem, buy a new one. Washing machine went out. No problem just bought another one. Had this happened a few years ago, I’d have been in trouble with no money.

I recently heard the x has two mortgages on her house with very little money in the bank. I sometimes wonder if she regrets kicking me out of the house.

Again, congratulations. It’s one less thing that still ties you to that woman. Once the child support is done, you’ll be completely free of her.

The evil in women’s hearts leaves them no moral bounds as to inhibit them from descending to the lowest levels of darkness to acquire their self entitled desires.

Congrats TaxGuy
Now put some of that “extra” cash to good use on your own needs/wants

There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

[ResidentEvil7Participant 9540]

At least it’s all over. Now you can have your freedom and prosperity. I recommend taking the extra income and have a merry Christmas this year.

This is just one of a million reasons why I don’t want to ever get married and have kids. I don’t want that financial hell hurting my life. I live on SSI because I have no job and a disability, which is very limited ($514 a month); I can’t imagine having to surrender the little I get on someone who will disrespect it.

Money can bring freedom, and women see your money and think it’s theirs.
