Ron DeSantis ends permanent alimony

[Anonymous]

I was in Florida in the winter and was sad to see many women in their late 60’s and 70’s working as waitresses.

Boo hoo. Welcome to the vast majority of the world. I was impressed with fit 80+ year olds working hard for in Japan. It gives them a sense of purpose and keeps their brains sharp. They don't whine about it like lazy westerners either.

I doubt I'd get hired at Starbucks (no barista experience!). If my husband and I divorced, I would starve if I didn't receive permanent alimony. For younger women who didn't give up their careers, it's a completely different situation.

You can work as a CNA, house cleaning, Costco door checker, etc. Even hotels may have front desk positions.

It is very different if you are working because you want to, v you are literally going to be out on the streets if you don't work into your 80s. I hope you recognize that Japan and the US are two VERY different situations.

Costco door checkers make tons of money! You will definitely not lose your house if you get that job. See, it's so simple! Or work the front desk at a hotel and then you're all set. CNAs are positively rolling in it and that's a great job for someone in their 50s or 60s.

No one owes you a certain lifestyle because they were married to 20+ years ago. If all you can be is a Costco door checker than you need to downsize and live within your means. Boo friggin hoo.

You read like a 17 year old conservative with absolutely zero life experience and less financial knowledge.

You read like an entitled douche bag who thinks they deserve a paycheck just for existing and breathing air.

Get a job you worthless deadbeat.

You won't admit it, but I'll bet you were one of the ones complaining and whining about not having your college loans cancelled.

If you work into your 80s or you're on the street, you did something wrong.

Poor life choices.

Nah, I think I read you right and your nursing hurt feelings. You don’t know anything about life yet.

CNAs are not rolling in it. It’s a physical job that is very hard, and the pay they receive is the lowest in the healthcare field. A 60 year old woman cannot be a CNA.

Imagine an uneducated nail technician cheating on her hardworking civil servant husband for years but stretches out the marriage to make it to the ten year mark so she can get half of his pension (woohoo I won the lottery!) for eternity. She also gets “full custody” of the kids (=child support $) but decides to take that money and run off to West Virginia with her new boyfriend, lots of vacations to Cancun and a giant new pickup truck while the courts require her to keep paying even as he raises the kids himself, pays for braces etc . Alternative scenario a lady used to being supported her whole married life is now divorced at 55 but does not feel like getting an actual job so prefers remaining “dependant” in spite the fact that it means her husband can never actually retire, as he will be Paying for the rest of time.


Yes I am a feminist but a lot of times really get the shitty end of the stick and usually it is men with fewer of course.

How is a woman of 55 that spent almost all her career building years being a SAHM supposed to support herself on minimum wage since she has no skills to get any other kind of job? Coincidently society doesn’t believe we should raise minimum wage since only teenagers should be working those kinds of jobs so now what? She’s 10ish years from retirement, retirement benefits won’t pay crap no health care and supposed to afford living in any capacity on 7.25/hr.

Omg boo hoo.

Now imagine all of those single women who got divorced from men who aren't rich. They had to get jobs.

There are no guarantees in life. Just because you were a sahm married to a loaded dude doesn't mean you should be guaranteed a paycheck every month just because you exist. Get a job, deadbeat. You already got more than your fair share of all assets. NO ONE should be basically required to be enslaved as an indentured servant because they're required to pay their ex spouse a salary for Infinity for doing nothing. Preposterous.

The issue is the women gave up assets when divorcing for an alimony payment. It was done to the agreement of the husband and wife, and the divorce was settled that way. Now the men don’t want to pay. It’s unfair to change the terms after the man received the assets.

Now the wife has no assets and no alimony payment and is advanced in age. So- the entire divorce settlement must be retroactively reworked and the asset division between the couple must be fairly distributed.
