[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like her spouse was a high earner. She will get a nice payout, negotiate college payment, and get half of his retirement. Plus she's rid of a cheater and has a nice cushion to either train for a new job or pick up her old one. Doesn't sound all that negligent to me.[/quote]

All depends upon what you consider a "nice payout".  A friend just got divorced in Maryland from a worthless SAHM (they type who didn't cook, clean or take care of the kids).  His ex got half the marital portion of the 401k, and half the house equity.  50-50 custody.  She will get a little short term alimony, and that's it.  She'll walk away with $500k but if she spends it there's no retirement, and no home ownership in her future.  No college education for the kids, and she gets no health care.  [/quote]

Wow, your friend is dumping his kids as well as his wife? He won't chip in for college? He didn't have to (or choose to, for the mother of his kids) provide her with insurance in the gap before she found work?  Sounds as though like attracted like in this case.[/quote]
