[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can’t believe all these people saying 1.6M is good money for 20 years of work for a middle aged woman who has no pension, no 401k, and gave up her career. I think fair would be 5-10M. I agree with PP that prenups should have force but I think in the family law context the judges can look to whether the terms are unconscionable in context. If I were KC’s lawyer, I’d advise settling it out in the 5-10 range. It’s possible they’ve tried that and she’s holding out for more. [/quote] 20 years of work? If we are equating marriage to work then he should also be compensated. He provided all the financial resources for those 20 years. I feel for her but I don’t understand how she has nothing. [b]SAHMs know to put some funds away for themselves just in case[/b]…she was just there living in lala land…vacationing, leasing cars and getting cosmetic work done…and then ups and decides to file for divorce without having a solid plan.[/quote]Not how it works. All marital money is split in the divorce regardless of whose name is on bank account unless there's a prenup or the money was earned prior to marriage and not commingled. A separate bank account gives a SAHM some extra start up money instead of waiting for temporary spousal support, but it's not a complete plan for financial security.[/quote]
