[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a recent thread, some posters said they didn't get any alimony, others were set for life, and still others got it for a few years while they found a job or went to school.  (This is separate from child support.)

How long were you married?  [b]30 years[/b]
What was the reason for the divorce -- i.e., did it factor into the alimony calculation?[b] "Irreconcilable differences" and no factor in alimony calculation [/b]
What was the difference between your income and spouse's income?[b] I was the husband and my income was 3X my wife’s. [/b]
Do you regret the amount you settled on? [b]Not at all. Why would I? We were married 30 years, she certainly deserved what she got. [/b]
Was your alimony agreed upon in mediation or did a judge decide?[/quote] [b]Mediation and we followed the NYS guidelines of support which meant for 10 years of monthly payments plus 1/2 of marital assets. I also gave her my 1/2 of our home’s equity, which had no mortgage. [/b][/quote]
