[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]:hand goes up: I know tons of middle aged divorced women with kids, most definitely on the prowl, who work full time and get sizable alimony, you interested, OP? [/quote]

+1, my husband's ex gets life long alimony.  She cheated and they were only married 10 years and divorced before age 30.  How is that ok?  [/quote]

Oh wow, I most definitely call BS.

Alimony in perpetuity nowadays has to have VERY extenuating circumstances.

They were only married 10 years and she gets alimony in perpetuity???

What exactly was the basis for this?
I'm dying to hear this. [/quote]

What was the case law to support this decision?
What state was this in?

Where in God's name can you be married for 10 years, then cheat (which is irrelevant, as courts don't care about infidelity) and then get alimony for 20, 30 or even 40 years longer than the couple was married?[/quote]

Actually the courts do care sometimes - in VA, a cheating party (with proof of adultery) is precluded from receiving spousal support.[/quote]
