73. So you do not feel she had right to a fair and equitable distribution of their assests?

Oct 2012

At what level of assests does this thinking kick in? Is it ok to cheat a spouse out of 30K? 300? Or is it only when it is millions that the ex should not get a fair shake?
I personally do not think that having tons of money gives anyone the right to offer unfair settlement in divorce. 'Oh, she got half of what she should have, but it was still millions' only means she got shafted for millions.
I do not see the size of their assests as handing to the husband some right to dissemble. I doubt anyone would.
Would you say the same about a woman who fought to get her half of 50K in assests? Or is it just women in marriages with large assests that should be happy to take a less than fair settlement?
