[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A former BigLaw colleague of mine was the nicest guy in the world until he left his SAH wife and three kids for another woman. The last guy you'd ever expect to do this. His wife ended up getting one-half of his earnings until the kids were grown, with a MINIMUM of 500k a year -- basically making him a slave to big law for at least a dozen more years. Moral of the story: get a good lawyer.[/quote] [b]Why did he continue to work? [/b] Seriously. Why couldn't he work for a nonprofit or accidentally get fired or something. Do people actually get forced to work post-divorce? In this guy's case, they probably had assets at the time of divorce. Move to Kansas and downsize life. [/quote] Because he signed a legal document agreeing to make the payments. Most likely his wife got the agreement she did because he was desperate to be rid of her. So many men will sign whatever the ex wants just to be rid of them. [/quote]
