Great article. She made almost all the mistakes that men make when they get married. No prenup, they moved into her home, she had to refi to help her parents, in order to qualify she had to put his name on the home. When divorcing they forgo mediation and rack up a couple hundred thousand in legal fees. She thought she was getting a IRA of $200k in exchange for giving up the house but the paperwork didn’t specify so she feels she got screwed.

Then she says all in this cost her about $200k, which WOULD grow to around $1 million by the time she retires. So her divorce cost her nearly one million dollars.

Well then by that math my divorce cost me about $2.5 million.

She has not yet earned that money back. “I’m still working towards that,” she said. “It was a huge loss. Based on the trajectory my husband and I had at the time, we could have retired at 50 with several million dollars.” Yup. Too bad.

And here is the kicker: She now works as a Certified Financial Planner and divorce financial analyst. And someone probably has an appointment with her tomorrow.

Join the CLUB !!! LOL LOL LOL

Kinda like getting married to a sweet lil Cupcake that has enough degrees to make a GOOD INCOME, and promises to work after marriage, but after the kids are all in school CHOOSES to have the Resident Male Servant continue to pull the cart for the entire family doing a job that is killing him while she sits on her ever growing fat useless ass.

I “feel” for you sweetie !!

Sounds like the worst part was the legal fees…

Otherwise it says they both owned property prior to the marriage and they chose to live in her house, of which she put a 20k down payment on. It says she was only working part time while they were married.

My guts telling me(because the article clearly omitted some important information) the dude paid most, if not all of the bills while they were together, and at some point sold his property and the proceeds, even though he owned property prior to marriage, became marital assets. Quite possibly the dude sold his property he had a lot more equity in than she did and put all the proceeds into paying that mortgage down. In other words, she walked away from the marriage a lot less scarred than a lot of men have ended up. I’m sure if you heard her husbands story, which would probably contain more facts, he took it in the shorts hard.

Regardless though…its stories like these that make me chuckle whenever people ask when I’m going to get married. Why? Why would I want a relations~~~ where I may end up having to pay her to f~~~ off some day? The thing is if I was in a relations~~~ with a chick, I wouldn’t mind spending a little money on her. A dinner or a gift on occasion isn’t going to break me, or even paying her way on a vacation(provided she would make a good travel companion), and even if I paid a larger portion of the monthly bills but she picked up the slack in other ways, I wouldn’t care. Life isn’t all about nickles and dimes. Allowing her to legally raid my bank account while she’s moving on to go f~~~ other dudes? Yeah…no thanks. I will never put myself in that situation.

So did anyone ever tell them to not get divorced in order to both have solid finances for later?

They could have been in separate places and just stayed together for finances, they could have set up their finances so that one couldnt screw the other by spending everything.

Morons.

And gynocentric media has never run the same type of article about how much money a man loses in a divorce, and certainly not comsidering how much hes lost in the future because of interest lost.

Godam gnocentric vaginal media bullsh1t.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

Think of the irony though, how they run a scare tactic article aimed at scaring women about marriage. This is pretty much the equivalent of them running articles claiming married men live longer, are happier, and get more sex.

In both cases we know its total bulls~~~ and marriage is way more beneficial to women. If women want to believe it all let them. I’m still not going to marry one.

This is what it is all about.

The women are the pawns. It is the system that is the enemy. A system dedicated to seize all the current and future wealth a working class man can earn.

MGTOW. Ghost. Minimalist. Let the system collapse under its own weight of hubris in belief that generations of men would work for nothing under the threat of jail or worse after watching their fathers and grandfathers suffer from such a system.

BAHAHAHAHA
Sorry about that outburst.
When I read or hear about these few stories of women bemoaning how the “got screwed over” in a divorce, I don’t enjoy a vindictive pleasure out of it. I just ask “What is the real story”?
Look
Both my ex wives blamed me for their lot in life after the divorces.
Neither got a penny, I got the legal fees to pay for.
They both ended up where there ended up due to their poor educations, the lack of effort to actually gain a useful education. Minimum wage part time jobs, and additional womb turds, and their own decisions. PERIOD
In both cases I got ALL the bills, they walked away debt free.
In the second case. I got sole custody and no child support, she walked away debt free. With the exception of she got nailed with defrauding the provincial and federal Government. No Jail time or fines though. Just with held income tax refunds until 2 years ago when it was paid off (18 years to pay it off ffs).

So ya…
Whats the real story princess?

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

Makes me wonder if we are hitting a tipping point. Men have been excluded from education for a few generations now. Women get 60% of the college degrees. My daughters are entering a time where it’s very possible, even probable, where they will be the bread winners of their family. Which means that they will be the one’s that end up paying if they get divorced.

Women wanted “equality”. They weren’t smart enough to realize they had the better deal. And now the tables are turning. Right now it’s news that a woman lost a bunch of money in a divorce. That may not be news 10 years from now.

We have reached a tipping point, but it is not men versus women.

Remember the whole point to this child support/alimony/taxes/debts-loans/etc is to steal the wealth of men. The reason the system is gear to give money to women is that 90% of consumer spending, but men and women each earn have the money.

The enemy are the corporations. Most of these corporations are foreign owned/controlled. These corporations have almost total control of the government, industry, and culture in the nation. They want to steal the wealth of the people and they have been doing so for over a century, while making people their debt slaves.

The tipping point was 2016, November 9th, 3:10 AM Est when the presidential election was called for Donald Trump.

Te corporations were planning for a Hillary win and another round of trillion dollar bailouts, with kickbacks going to they sycophants in all parts of government, industry, and culture. They even committed acts of treason to help Hillary.

The first round of bailouts in 2008-2012 allowed the corporations to screwed over the working class more than beforehand.

When Donald Trump won the election, something collectively broke inside the insiders and foreigners, and the rest of the establishment. Both a fear of being held responsible for their actions, along with resentment and blame towards the U.S. working class, especially white working class men, whom helped elect Donald Trump to the White House.

Since then the establishment has had to goals. One to removed Donal Trump from the office of the Presidency by any means necessary. And the other is to insult, censor, disarm, disenfranchise, and destroy the U.S. working class, especially working class men. This goes so far as the radicalize their followers to become their violent brownshirts, while making sure prosecutors and police chiefs across the nation are paid off to look the other way in response to the violence by the brownshirts against the U.S. working class.

The working class has not be blind to these attacks by the establishment. But, the reason there has not been any reprisal by the working class is that the red pilled men can see what is happening. The establishment is hastening the collapse of the system they control, while they are losing fortunes in doing do.

Still, these political attacks, going all the way back to the Tea Party Movement has been changing the working class into something very troubling, that the establishment will not admit to.

While Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto has been re-edited more times than the bible to fit the current narrative, Karl Marx’s speeches have not be heavily re-edited.

If you actually read the speeches given by Karl Marx you would realize that MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement is a communist movement.

The media, academia, and the rest of the establishment will never admit this because if MAGA is communist, then they are forced to ask what does that make them. The establishment lacks the ability to be self-reflective. But, the answer to the question is that the establishment are fascists. And the establishment projects and falsely accuses the MAGA movement of being the fascists that the establishment is.

Before any of you claim we have to save capitalism, keep in mind capitalism has been dead for eleven years. Capitalism died when the government begin openly issues checks, from print money, to corporations, mostly foreign corporations. What we have now have is a corporate-fasicist system that is like a colonial state that refuses to admit what it is, while the system has turned against the working class for electing a president that shows sympathy for the working class.

Due to the establishment becoming fanatics, along with being fascists, whom are dedicated to getting their way or destroying the world in attempt to do so, all the possibly outcomes from this are not good.

Keep in mind, a lesson in history we need to remember. That being while the French Revolution was bloody. The French Revolution did not turn tyrannical and warlike until the foreign nations attacked France and forced the French people to fight for survival from a world that literally wanted to bury them and erase their existence.

Considering less than 1/3 of millennials are married having a traditional family at all should be more of a concern for them than having to be the bread winners.

I’m on the older side of the millennial generation and I can say from experience I know a ton more women who probably won’t ever have kids or are in f~~~ed up single mom situations than I do women who are married breadwinners. In fact, I know zero married millennial women with kids who are also the bread winner. Zero.
