[quote=Anonymous]My brother was married for 10 years to a woman who barely worked--she had a few short term jobs earning very little. He supported her through a very prestigious business school, and yet she could never get a job (or maybe didn't want one). Not sure exactly what the issues were, but she was definitely off. Emotional problems, mental health (eating disorder), etc. She ultimately left him at the 10 year mark (hoping for lifetime alimony as this was california), and she was getting 5k/month for 3-4 years while they sorted out the divorce. His salary was around 200k. No kids. Eventually they settled and alimony ended, but it was always shocking to me that she was getting so much compared to women who stayed at home to care for kids.
