[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's my question. Let's say she strategically holds off on getting a job before the divorce in order to maximize alimony/CS.

Then afterward she goes and gets a job. This is a change in material circumstances.

Doesn't he then go back and say, "she has income now, so we must recompute alimony/CS"? (And possibly also custody)

Similarly, if he got a big promotion and raise after the divorce, she'd want to recalculate the money based on his new income level, right?

[b]What he makes after the divorce is none of her concern.[/b] If its month 3 post-divorce and he gets a new job, she doesn't get a raise in alimony automatically. Only if he argued that he had reduced means/income during the divorce period which is highly unlikely. So if he made 100K throughout the marriage, then she'll get a cut of that - not the 250K he starts making post-divorce. Because its about the standards the kids are [i]used[/i] to, not what some greedy woman aspires to.[/quote]

If he gets a huge salary jump, she would be stupid not to request a change in child support. You don't know what you're talking about.

Mom's salary and Dad's salary are put into a calculator - that's where the numbers come from. Different salary = different number.[/quote]
