Digital Mobile Post what does sports has to do here?? And just because they don’t have the same viewership than the other major league like nba etc does not mean they should get rid of it lmaoo idk why you’re mad about it
@Digital Mobile Post well, why do sports exists? People enjoy them and are willing to pay for live seats/... , advertisers can show their ads to millions. Why does tv exist 😱.
Many couples don't think of having a prenuptial agreement before they get married this could help prevent things from being unfair if they divorce. Heads up people those of you who cheat and it is proven that you have cheated maybe forced to pay a higher alimony depending on what state you're in so don't do what my husband did and leave your computer running and tons of evidence of infidelity in your own handwriting. lol
This law is stupid af y must some1 enjoy the benefits from an ex if your not with them d fact that u were enjoying a standard of living is benefit of being with the person if u leave you should forfeit such perks
@@LawFull That's why I don't believe in the no fault divorce If it is truly no fault then no one should pay but if someone is at fault, they should pay out ass maintaining the lifestyle that they provided in the first place while taking that person for granted.
Why should anyone pay spousal support it doesn't make any sense. Why should you pay someone else for a lifestyle they had with you after they decided to separate from you. That's obscured. Your employer doesn't pay you to live the lifestyle you lived when you worked at another business,(Its not their concern). You marry for love not for money or am I wrong. Either way its a trap for the bread winner if its not a prenup its a spousal support LOOK AT DR DRE AND HIS WIFE
@Digital Mobile Post 1) I never once mentioned ar even hinted at human trafficking 2) I didn't mention or hint at the exploitation of women as this situation can go both ways either favouring the man or the woman 3) I didn't mention or hint at women working at home for free, some women actually go and work their job of their choice i don't know what influences them but thats their business 4) In my comment I wasn't talking about gender equality at all, I was commenting on my beliefs on what should happen in divorce, as it would be unfair for someone to be paying someone else for being married to them. SOME PEOPLE MAY ARGUE "BUT SHE HAD TO PUT UP WITH HIM" that's correct but HE ALSO HAD TO PUT UP WITH HER. It goes both ways. I understand that the certain situations you mentioned do actually happen but I am not promoting it at all and I do not agree with it. I was just commenting on how it would be unfair for a person male or female to be paying their once other half/ divorced partner for living a lifestyle they cannot provide themselves
@Digital Mobile Post I understand what you are saying now and I'm sorry you had to experience this. There should be some type of support to the person of lesser income but I dont think it should be from the other half maybe the government or something
When families decide to designate areas of focus for each spouse; in order to have a smoothly running household. Normally, a stay at home mother's priorities consists of taking care of the emotional and physical well-being of her family. In many instances, the mother is the support system of the family, enabling the father to advance and focus on his career. When the marriage fails; the mother's role rarely changes. could you imagine having to instantly change your career and put less energy and focus on the things you have focused on for years? Divorce is especially, hard for mothers without the needed degree or skills to pick- up and start a new life.
@@amandaevans926 why did she do it? The support she got during marriage is the payment for her doing her role. Does an employer pay an ex employee if the employee learned no new skills during the employment and is now unemployed? How you can rationalize marriage for men is hypocritical. Marriage is for suckers. Fact.
Same as child support. One of the biggest reasons some try so hard to get custody, if there are any minor children involved. It is like a free paycheck.
I personally think spousal support is b.s! Wether you are a man or women! It isn't fair to have to be paying for someone that doesn't want to be in your life anymore. The only exception to this I would say are when kids are involved. Basically child support because the kids are both the parents responsibility. Would LOVE to be married one day but this freaks me out!
In Tennesee, I got stuck with an 8 years spousal support plan. $1,000 a month. I can barely afford it. Even if my Ex starts to cohabitate with another male, how in the hell do I prove that in court? Hire an investigator?
Seriously? You should be suing your lawyer. Either you had a crappy lawyer or you were found to be the reason for the breakdown of the marriage. You have to prove he is gay, then cohabitate with analogous to marriage. That is, lovers, same bedroom etc. How do you prove it? Lay back and watch. Don't tell anyone you are watching. Get pictures of them out at dinner, etc. Send a certified letter to him ....something stupid, just to make sure he gets it. Then mail another certified a year and one day from then to be sure he is there for over a year. Other than that I don't know.
My husband and I have been married almost 25 years. He's been the bread winner while I stayed home raising our 4 children. Prior to our last child graduating he closed our joint account leaving me with no money and forcing me to hurry up and get a full time job. Not only does he withhold all the money, he won't help pay for any of my bills causing me to fall further in debt while he lives high off the hog. Due to religious reasons I'm filing for legal separation here in Wisconsin. Will I be able to get spousal support of I file and we still reside together? I have no health insurance and suffer with several medical conditions which is another reason I won't take the divorce route. I feel like this man used me to raise his kids and advance his career then threw me out like the trash.
Hi Michelle, I'm sorry you're going through this. However, family law is very state and local specific. So the lawyer in the video wouldn't be able to help you with this. He's in IL. You really need to consult with a local family law attorney to get your question answered. Really sorry we can't be more helpful on this and wish you the best of luck.
I'd be interested in hearing your husband's side of the story. I wonder if he feels that you used him to for 25 years to not work, to fulfill your dream to stay home with the kids and tried using your religious beliefs to justify it. There are two sides to the story.
About to become separated after 13 years of marriage at my husbands request due to my health. He makes in average 5k a month , i make $1150.00 through my disability. I am so scared because he wants to give me $500.00 a month now that we have gone through over $90k of mine . I am devastated.
I was married one year. No kids, no assets, just debt in my name, and a car. After a year, she left, took our only car and worked 2 more months, and quit. I was giving her money after 6 months since she quit her job. When i wasnt giving her the money she wanted, she took me to court. I had to get a car to keep my job (i have no liscence) to keep paying her and my own bills. Im suprised she was awarded anything. Especially only married 1 year, and no kids.
Is spousal support based on the money that’s being made or the lifestyle being lived? If I’m rich but I live modestly, I don’t waste money, no fancy cars and houses is her claim the modest lifestyle or my bank balance? Is it also based in income or net worth? If I simply stop working and earn no money but I own stock and never actually ashbout the investment what happens? There’s no income, no money just assets.
Another reason that the job of "stay at home mom/dad" is not a good route to go. In the case of a relatively long marriage, not only does that person lack any real resume for the workforce, but they've also not accrued employment time for social security. If the other party no longer makes or never did make much income, then the stay at home mom/dad is in for a rude awakening and tough time. I tell all young girls to make sure they can support themselves BEFORE ever getting married AND having children these days. This is no day and age to be uneducated/unskilled/unemployed. BE INDEPENDENT. Get to work, people!
We're not fighting yet I'm just now filling out the spousal support form. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what to say or add to the form. my head is spinning. I live in CA and would like to know how long would a 22 yr marriage give support?
Morning - family law is very state specific. I would strongly suggest you consult with a local CA attorney about this topic. This is unfortunately not something I could comment on. I'm very sorry I can't be more helpful on this one.
unless you end up in a court with a crooked judge. who had an affair with a woman lawyer, she sued him for 250,000. and won. He then takes it out on woman coming before him asking for a divorce and alimony . woman need to know who the judge is who is hearing their case and have a different judge if they are anything like in the comment. funny thing is , having spoken to the woman attorney about your divorce, setting up retainer only to find out she's having the affair with the judge who was given 2 choices to retire or be removed. disgusting.
Hi,I really need help,my husband withdraws Permanent residency, 2.5 of marriage,now separated,no job,no central link,living in refugee camp.medical condition bad,victim of domestic violence for 2.can't able to work.can I get spousal support.thanks
Thank you so much for making this video. You give great advice. Just curious: can the prenup include clauses to protect the husband's earnings during the marriage (so called "marital income") so that the wife doesn't get any of it except that which is agreed upon (e.g. basic clothes, food, utilities, and rent)?
Good morning. Family law is a very local issue. I strongly suggest you check with a local attorney regarding any type of issue like this. Sorry I can't be of more help on this topic. Best of luck to you.
lifestyle of living should not be consider at all. it’s ends up rewarding one spouse and the other takes a hit. you shouldn’t be rewarded/ compensated for marrying the wrong person. it’s absolutely ridiculous. if you get a divorce both parties lifestyle of living will decrease regardless of how much another makes. the only time alimony should be allowed is if one spouse did not work for several years. if they both work then it should not be talked about
I’m confused by how a single person wants the financial benefits on a 2 person system as though that is a permanent that way. If the women divorces the man and gets support and can only lose that support when they re-marry. Well as a man when you get re- married do you still have to pay support for your previous marriage?
The one receiving support would have to get married. Also if that marriage only lasts a year or so or even just 5 years and they divorce that person can then come back to the previous expand reinstate the spousal support. Sorry, but that's just what I've read and heard.
What you wife never stopped working and smokes 400 dollars in weed a month, messed around on you 1 month after being married and you found out 18 years later when she told you and asked you to take a DNA test to see if you son is yours. Been married 30 years and I want out. But I believe she thinks she has the upper hand with alimony. She makes 30k and I make 100K but the home is paid for and the cars. She is just getting way to hard to live with. My son just moved out and that is the main reason I'm still here. I guess now I will get punished for doing right. I will not be a slave for my life!
What if one spouse is retired with pension, social security and 401k is 3 years older, the other has two years before they retire, no minor children. Would that be consideration for spousal support to pay the retired person? The only they have to split equally is the house. OR do they just give the house to a woman?
Morning, to be honest I don't know. Divorce and support is a very local issue. I strongly recommend you look for a family law attorney near you on Google so that you can get accurate advice. Sorry I can't be more help on this one.
I am a stay at home mom by his choice. I generally work but, after we moved to a new apartment, he made me quit my job. He got caught abusing us and left. I never asked him to leave, he was worried about police so he ran away. He had paid the rent but then reported his card stolen so it wasn’t paid. I am staring a new job soon but I am worried I will be evicted. I’m not asking for anything in the divorce but, I feel like he shouldn’t skip rent and leave my baby and I homeless. He has also sent emails to the apartment management asking them to evict me because I’m not working and he doesn’t live here anymore.
@@mysticnomad89 things a much better now. I have a great job and was able to get caught up on the rent. Thank you for your words❤️ it’s people like you that make the world a better place❤️
When I'm struggling to understand and maybe I'm jumping the gun I haven't finished the video yet is why does the person deserve the same level of comfort as when they were married especially when it's the unemployed wife or a wife that has a lesser job that initiates the divorce I don't understand why they deserve to maintain the same quality of life it's like quitting a good job for a bad job you make choices those choices come with consequences you should have to live with it this makes no sense to me whatsoever unless if there is some kind of abuse involved
Hi my name is Dan I've been divorced once remarried to the same girl she just recently left me and now she's fine one for a divorce fossil support I live in Pennsylvania and I just don't know what to expect

My male co-worker is going through a divorce and the daughter they share will be living with him, not the mother. Would he qualify for spousal support? (NYC)

I got married in 2001 separated but not divorce in 2002. We’ve been separated for 20 years both of us had kids within that time. Do I have to pay spouse support or alimony?
Hi Oran. Family law is a very local subject. You'd need to consult with a local attorney regarding these questions. If you just google 'divorce lawyer near me' there will be a large # of attorneys you might consult with. If you're in IL, you can look up the attorney in the video Mark Schondorf.
What I am trying to find out what should I do now Curt's are closed and I haven't recive a dime for any help from him what can I do and what advice you can give me
Divorce and spousal support issues are very local issues. I'm in IL and do not know anything about NY law. I would strongly recommend talking to a local divorce attorney. They're expensive. If you cannot afford it, perhaps there is a local legal aid clinic you can talk to? I'm sorry I cannot be more help.
I have a question, I recieve SSDI and recieve Veteran Benefits for disability. I have no earned income, and my wife works as a medical assistant and she earns 45k a year. We will be married for 8 yrs will she be entilled for alimony?? We have no children. I also have a Veteran's Loan and my name is the only one on the property title. However, I did purchase the house while I was married. Is she entitled to purchase the home if I don't want to sell the home to her or make me sell it after the divorce is final??
Hello - family law/divorce etc is very local in nature. As such, I strongly recommend that you consult with a local attorney to discuss this matter. If you're in IL, you could contact the attorney in the video Mark Schondorf. Otherwise, again, contact a local attorney. They'd be in the best position to advise you on this. Sorry I can't be more helpful on this one.
My husband walked out on me and our 2 teenage daughters. We have always lived paycheck to paycheck. He was hired at this company we’re he will make close to six figures. Conveniently up and leaves. This just happened 30 days ago. Should I go and see a divorce lawyer now? Because I can’t financially support myself and start over. We’ve been together 20 years I haven’t establish credit anything.
Hi - really sorry to hear this. I'm not a divorce lawyer but speaking from a layman's perspective on this topic, I'd say yes, go see a local lawyer asap.... Again, very sorry you're going through this.

I'm living with my boyfriend that's been separated from his wife for five years she's threatening alimony if he divorces her but he does not give her anything for the last 5 years
@Digital Mobile Post Yep family law attorneys can be expensive. Normally there is a 'legal aid' society or organization that can help people who can't afford an attorney.
@Digital Mobile Post don't get married. N y the fuck r u an at home in this age? First off don't get married till u r able to support yourself. N second don't marry someone until u know for a fact you would be with him/her if they was a raging trailhead m they feel the same about u. If u can for sure get through living as a fucking junkie or with a junkie and don't want to give that person up then u know u found the one. Just don't do it
Paying alimony for years just because ex-wife knows the requirements and stays in single house while being able to work but choosing not to because why not? Cant afford lawyer to reopen case because of said alimony. Help
Hello, in my state of IL we have something called the IL Legal Aid Society - maybe your state or city has a free resource like that where you can turn to for help?
I am drowning in this divorce. My parish is so corrupt. You stated that if you can help you would find someone that could, I’m 45, in the middle of a disability suit And my husband walked o it a month ago and cut me off totally. He make over 200,000 a year and I am told the most I can get for interim is 1,000 for one year.
Hi, support is a very local issue. In your disability suit do you have an attorney? If so, ask her or him for a referral? If not, come back to me and I'll see if I can find someone. I know a lot of injury attorneys and very few divorce attorneys but if you can't find someone I can at least ask a few people.

I made $15,276. last year working at Dollar tree. I was shocked that I had to pay taxes on my spousal maintenance support $700. a month. Being low income do I need to pay taxes on this spousal support?
Hi, I would strongly suggest you consult with a local attorney as that is likely a state issue. I personally do not know the answer to that question and the attorney who was in the video with me is in IL.
Hey Brian, divorce is a really local. You should look up the laws in your state as they are likely different than IL... Sorry I can't be more help on that.
I’m going through a divorce it’s a 3 1/2 your marriage no kids she makes about $1000 less than me in a month she wants $1500 a month spousal support what do you all think
Hey Joe, tough to know. Doesnt sound quite right but depends on the state. You consulted a local attorney for their thoughts by chance? Or perhaps your legal aid organization?
TheMrMarple I was able to walk away paying nothing. However I offered 300 a month for three years if I could keep the house. She didn’t agree to that now the house just sold and we’re walking away with $1200 each in equity.
There is nothing worse than dealing with a narcissist during divorce. My husband cut credit cards cell phone empty joint accounts use psychological abuse intimidation coercion etc I was lucky to find a good lawyer and my twin sister helped pay for her. Make sure you gray rock the narcissistic spouse Do not let them get any reaction out of you whatsoever. Narcissists try to make you lose your temper so they can use it during the divorce to say you're unstable or violent so no matter what they do do not fall for that ploy you stay totally neutral in your behavior this usually cause their abuse to escalate for two to four weeks but if you stay strong in Gray rocking they give up after a while but don't let your guard down they are forever watching for a moment. Everything you say they will use against you so keep your eyes open and your mouth shut. The more you gray rock the more mistakes they make and then you make sure your document all those mistakes and give it to your lawyer. Best of luck you going to need it.
Wife left me after 25 years. She's not remarried to her boyfriend yet. I received therapy for depression a d can prove it. After 3 years I'm still struggling financially. She has a high paying job. Could I ask for so.e support in Oregon. I'm not tryungvto be a jerk and ask indefinitely just for the last few years and may e the next year to help out?
Morning. I'm really sorry to hear this and wish I could be more help. But these types of issues are very local. You need to look to your state laws on spousal support in Oregon. And talking to a local attorney is really the way to go. I personally don't know any family law attorneys in OR. I'm sorry again I can't be more help.
My soon to be ex wife are both on disability and work part-time we make almost the same ammont of money an we were only together under 2 years. Would that generally make me have to pay alimony? Also what is there is a domestic case in the marriage with her being the aggressive party in it

Listening to this makes me really negative to marriage. Why the heck is the other person responsible for the other in a divorce ? I understand child support, but spousal support is just not ok.
What if before you got married he was cheating say want do any more but you still got married anyway then 7years later he started back until this day .in 2016 before Christmas he left move in with her and never seen him my mom funeral then my dad funeral and no more .He the one out there shacking up with her. I been faithful from the we met
Morning Darlene, divorce law is a very local subject. Meaning, you need to look to your local laws to see what they say on any topic. So I strongly suggest consulting with someone local to you on your situation.
Hi Rita, depends on the state you live in. You need to consult with a local attorney. Just Google 'divorce lawyer near me' or research the laws in your state. It should be pretty easy to find online....
My husband insisted I stay home because he’s to anxious to have a baby sitter. So for 8 years my career and 401k went up in smoke. It was stupid of me. I want to try a separation to see if that is a wake up call. But I’d be starting with zero. He’s always inheriting money and anything I’ve been given has just dissolved into our account. I just feel like I’m his nanny house keeper and I was actually better off single in one of my careers. He doesn’t have as much education or skills as me. Not to be mean. He’s a nice guy and a hard worker. But schizoid so relating to people including me isn’t his thing.
That is sad. But put ur foot down not only for you but ur kid and both ur future . Get a job now and get a trusted person. To babysit for awhile. Its really his time to cater to ur wishes
Wow. This is the biggest BS ever. I will have to find an other job but she can’t. I have to move to an smaller room, not even an apartment. Because she can’t. How that can even be constitucional?
@@MrSmith-on1qz Stealing. I would gladly give back the money so if my STOLEN life could be given back to me so I could go out and have my own INDEPENDENCE......How selfish men are to concentrate on their career and then discard their wife like a piece of trash.

I have said this to my lawyer, judge, etc. If you don't believe me, you are welcome to ask them. He was seeing someone else, our neighbor, my friend. Our Triple A agent sent me an inquiry of a $5000 trip to Belize that was scheduled for when I would regularly be out of town in search of our retirement home. As it turned out it wasn't OUR plan to retire. It was his plan to retire with her and he was going to leave me high and dry. Then I found out that he had not only planned to leave me high and dry but for the last 20 years filing taxes he never claimed my income. He insisted he file the taxes and never claimed my income so my SS is squat. My friends said to me "E, you have no choice now but to seek out a lawyer. He really has you in a corner this time."
@@elainenilsson5472 I understand you are upset about it (I would be too) but just for the sake of me being able to understand. You petitioned for the divorce but you didn’t want the divorce?
Not sure what you mean. If you do a prenup prior to getting married? Sure then. A lot depends on the laws in your jurisdiction. Probably best to look to a local attorney unless you're in IL then I can connect you with Mark.
It is disgusting that some states still see cohabitation with someone else as a reason to stop spousal support. This concept comes from when women were considered property and that when they got into a new relationship they were then the property of this next man so the other one was off the hook. So also support is about contributions during the marriage, why would the recipient of spousal supports relationship diminish their contributions to the marriage?????
@@bambinazo123 because she may have supported the furthering of your career while she had none and stayed at home to raise your children at your request. She exits the marriage without a career while you have a strong one because of her support. Whether she is with someone new does not negate her contributions. Thank goodness I'm in Canada, where this common sense is understood.
@@bambinazo123 what on earth are you talking about 🤣🤣🤣. Ya that's what all the newly single moms get, millions 🤣🤣🤣. What a beautiful world it would be 😍. Anyways, you are waaaay out of touch with reality and I'm not wasting anymore precious time on your cognitive dissonance ☮️
I understand and partially agree with what he said about the woman who had to set outside her education or career or who has those things but said it aside to raise children can't make the money that her husband is currently making I disagree and I also say so what depending on the age of the children she has the rest of her life to either catch up to where her husband was or is or to still bring in a very good sum of money I just don't understand how someone who is more or less symbiotic parasite to get divorce deserve to maintain her previous lifestyle from when she was married you weren't married and you didn't have as good of a life you got married you haven't very good life you've got divorced you should lose something other than your spouse doesn't make sense in it hurts my brain LOL
The wife can’t get her time wasted on you back. After many years of marriage, she becomes old and can’t play catch-up in the marketplace. Youth is also needed for decent employment. How many older people can go back into the job market and make enough money to afford their lifestyle from the marriage. I’m so glad the men who wrote the original laws have foresight and clarity of mind to take all a person does in their marriage into consideration.
What If both parties agree on a set monthly amount without using any legal obligation. Only amounts e.o. does it have to be on any legal documents. In my case we have no kids we just fell out of love and of course we had our problmes we just do not want to be together. However she does not have a job and she has not worked in over a year. I have already been helping support her altho she is in a different state . I'll revisit the question : Does our " alimony " agreement to e.o. have to be on a legal document? And if so does the legal system have to base it on e.o. income or could we agree on the monthly payment I will be giving her? (Since she hasnt had any in a year) Just curious
Wow ,doesn't seem fair. I've worked hard all my life build a nice 401k . My wife has never paid a single bill in our 20 years of marriage. She has a college degree but can't keep a job because she is an alcoholic. I just found out that she is cheating with several men . Just not fair that she could take half and then get monthly payments too.
"Those change in circumstances " that just come all of a sudden after you have to pay modifiable support. Are Judges really that stupid to just them get away with it? What happens when spouses lie under oath? Are they ever held accountable? How about ATTYs who teach tactics that bring permanent harm to a family and feed the Narc personality so they pad their own bills?
I mean unless you can prove that there's not very much the judges can do, and attorneys don't "teach tactics" they just inform people of the law in relevance to their situation
Hi, that is a very local/state specific question. I recommend consulting with a local divorce attorney to get an answer to that question. Sorry I can't be more help on this one.
I have a spouse (we reside in Texas) who said I was abusive. I was absolutely not abusive and is being falsely accused and received a separate criminal charge. In her discovery she admits cheating during the marriage. She is requesting spousal support. We were married for 8.5 years. Any ideas on this will go?
@Maarc S no sir its going nowhere. I had an attorney that quit the firm and then passed my case to another and then that person quit and now it's on the 3rd person. She won't sign the papers so I'm sure it will be taken to trial....someday.
I think Women should never leave Job & try to be independent. Don't rely on Husband even if he asks you to do so. Because it's really difficult to join workforce after a long break. Every Single Man hates to pay spousal Support.
Hey Linda, listen, spousal support and all of those topics are super state focused. So I would strongly recommend going on Google and searching for a local divorce lawyer near you. I'm in IL and I assure you that the laws here will be different than where you are. I'd like to be more help but I don't want to b.s. you either....
Don't get married. Family law entices women to act upon their worst traits of hypergamy. Divorce is all but guaranteed. Let them fend for themselves for a change.

Cohabitating will get you on the hook too, not just marriage. Marriage doesn't mean anything anymore.
Many couples don't think of having a prenuptial agreement before they get married this could help prevent things from being unfair if they divorce.

It's definitely a touchy issue for people. I see both sides.

Why should anyone pay spousal support it doesn't make any sense. Why should you pay someone else for a lifestyle they had with you after they decided to separate from you. That's obscured. Your employer doesn't pay you to live the lifestyle you lived when you worked at another business,(Its not their concern). You marry for love not for money or am I wrong.
Either way its a trap for the bread winner if its not a prenup its a spousal support

@Digital Mobile Post
1) I never once mentioned ar even hinted at human trafficking
2) I didn't mention or hint at the exploitation of women as this situation can go both ways either favouring the man or the woman
3) I didn't mention or hint at women working at home for free, some women actually go and work their job of their choice i don't know what influences them but thats their business
4) In my comment I wasn't talking about gender equality at all, I was commenting on my beliefs on what should happen in divorce, as it would be unfair for someone to be paying someone else for being married to them. SOME PEOPLE MAY ARGUE "BUT SHE HAD TO PUT UP WITH HIM" that's correct but HE ALSO HAD TO PUT UP WITH HER. It goes both ways.
I understand that the certain situations you mentioned do actually happen but I am not promoting it at all and I do not agree with it.
I was just commenting on how it would be unfair for a person male or female to be paying their once other half/ divorced partner for living a lifestyle they cannot provide themselves
@Digital Mobile Post
I understand what you are saying now and I'm sorry you had to experience this.
There should be some type of support to the person of lesser income but I dont think it should be from the other half maybe the government or something
When families decide to designate areas of focus for each spouse; in order to have a smoothly running household. Normally, a stay at home mother's priorities consists of taking care of the emotional and physical well-being of her family. In many instances, the mother is the support system of the family, enabling the father to advance and focus on his career. When the marriage fails; the mother's role rarely changes. could you imagine having to instantly change your career and put less energy and focus on the things you have focused on for years? Divorce is especially, hard for mothers without the needed degree or skills to pick- up and start a new life.
@@amandaevans926 why did she do it? The support she got during marriage is the payment for her doing her role. Does an employer pay an ex employee if the employee learned no new skills during the employment and is now unemployed? How you can rationalize marriage for men is hypocritical. Marriage is for suckers. Fact.
That is the reason why I’ll never get married and moving to another country

@Digital Mobile Post not sure what you’re rambling about. No sane guy would take the risk of marriage these days. Who the f wants to ruin his life.
Same as child support.
One of the biggest reasons some try so hard to get custody, if there are any minor children involved. It is like a free paycheck.
I personally think spousal support is b.s! Wether you are a man or women! It isn't fair to have to be paying for someone that doesn't want to be in your life anymore.
The only exception to this I would say are when kids are involved. Basically child support because the kids are both the parents responsibility.
Would LOVE to be married one day but this freaks me out!
Never get married
Exactly. When you are female and you have employment opportunities, take them. Leave him in the dust.
In Tennesee, I got stuck with an 8 years spousal support plan. $1,000 a month. I can barely afford it. Even if my Ex starts to cohabitate with another male, how in the hell do I prove that in court? Hire an investigator?
Y u get married? Sorry to hear that man
Seriously? You should be suing your lawyer. Either you had a crappy lawyer or you were found to be the reason for the breakdown of the marriage. You have to prove he is gay, then cohabitate with analogous to marriage. That is, lovers, same bedroom etc. How do you prove it? Lay back and watch. Don't tell anyone you are watching. Get pictures of them out at dinner, etc. Send a certified letter to him ....something stupid, just to make sure he gets it. Then mail another certified a year and one day from then to be sure he is there for over a year. Other than that I don't know.
How is spousal support calculated? The woman gets the money and the man gets the shaft.
My husband and I have been married almost 25 years. He's been the bread winner while I stayed home raising our 4 children. Prior to our last child graduating he closed our joint account leaving me with no money and forcing me to hurry up and get a full time job. Not only does he withhold all the money, he won't help pay for any of my bills causing me to fall further in debt while he lives high off the hog.
Due to religious reasons I'm filing for legal separation here in Wisconsin. Will I be able to get spousal support of I file and we still reside together? I have no health insurance and suffer with several medical conditions which is another reason I won't take the divorce route. I feel like this man used me to raise his kids and advance his career then threw me out like the trash.
Hi Michelle, I'm sorry you're going through this. However, family law is very state and local specific. So the lawyer in the video wouldn't be able to help you with this. He's in IL. You really need to consult with a local family law attorney to get your question answered. Really sorry we can't be more helpful on this and wish you the best of luck.
I'd be interested in hearing your husband's side of the story. I wonder if he feels that you used him to for 25 years to not work, to fulfill your dream to stay home with the kids and tried using your religious beliefs to justify it. There are two sides to the story.
@@fastrivers812🙄🙄🙄
About to become separated after 13 years of marriage at my husbands request due to my health. He makes in average 5k a month , i make $1150.00 through my disability. I am so scared because he wants to give me $500.00 a month now that we have gone through over $90k of mine . I am devastated.
I'm so sorry you're going through all this.
How are you now?
That is the sickest law I have ever heard of. Very reason people are not taking chances in getting married.
I was married one year. No kids, no assets, just debt in my name, and a car. After a year, she left, took our only car and worked 2 more months, and quit. I was giving her money after 6 months since she quit her job. When i wasnt giving her the money she wanted, she took me to court. I had to get a car to keep my job (i have no liscence) to keep paying her and my own bills. Im suprised she was awarded anything. Especially only married 1 year, and no kids.
Is spousal support based on the money that’s being made or the lifestyle being lived?
If I’m rich but I live modestly, I don’t waste money, no fancy cars and houses is her claim the modest lifestyle or my bank balance? Is it also based in income or net worth? If I simply stop working and earn no money but I own stock and never actually ashbout the investment what happens? There’s no income, no money just assets.
Another reason that the job of "stay at home mom/dad" is not a good route to go. In the case of a relatively long marriage, not only does that person lack any real resume for the workforce, but they've also not accrued employment time for social security. If the other party no longer makes or never did make much income, then the stay at home mom/dad is in for a rude awakening and tough time. I tell all young girls to make sure they can support themselves BEFORE ever getting married AND having children these days. This is no day and age to be uneducated/unskilled/unemployed. BE INDEPENDENT. Get to work, people!
The most insane support I ever seen
Children are future of a country. Protecting women sometimes means protecting children and the country's future.
We're not fighting yet I'm just now filling out the spousal support form. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what to say or add to the form. my head is spinning. I live in CA and would like to know how long would a 22 yr marriage give support?
Morning - family law is very state specific. I would strongly suggest you consult with a local CA attorney about this topic. This is unfortunately not something I could comment on. I'm very sorry I can't be more helpful on this one.
22 year marriage in California..10 years or more lifetime support
Debtor's prison is legal for missed alimony payments.
unless you end up in a court with a crooked judge. who had an affair with a woman lawyer, she sued him for 250,000. and won. He then takes it out on woman coming before him asking for a divorce and alimony . woman need to know who the judge is who is hearing their case and have a different judge if they are anything like in the comment. funny thing is , having spoken to the woman attorney about your divorce, setting up retainer only to find out she's having the affair with the judge who was given 2 choices to retire or be removed. disgusting.

Thank you so much for making this video. You give great advice. Just curious: can the prenup include clauses to protect the husband's earnings during the marriage (so called "marital income") so that the wife doesn't get any of it except that which is agreed upon (e.g. basic clothes, food, utilities, and rent)?

@TheMrMarple I don't necessarily agree but thanks for watching and for the comment.
lifestyle of living should not be consider at all. it’s ends up rewarding one spouse and the other takes a hit. you shouldn’t be rewarded/ compensated for marrying the wrong person. it’s absolutely ridiculous. if you get a divorce both parties lifestyle of living will decrease regardless of how much another makes. the only time alimony should be allowed is if one spouse did not work for several years. if they both work then it should not be talked about
I’m confused by how a single person wants the financial benefits on a 2 person system as though that is a permanent that way.
If the women divorces the man and gets support and can only lose that support when they re-marry. Well as a man when you get re- married do you still have to pay support for your previous marriage?
Yes!
The one receiving support would have to get married. Also if that marriage only lasts a year or so or even just 5 years and they divorce that person can then come back to the previous expand reinstate the spousal support. Sorry, but that's just what I've read and heard.
What you wife never stopped working and smokes 400 dollars in weed a month, messed around on you 1 month after being married and you found out 18 years later when she told you and asked you to take a DNA test to see if you son is yours. Been married 30 years and I want out. But I believe she thinks she has the upper hand with alimony. She makes 30k and I make 100K but the home is paid for and the cars. She is just getting way to hard to live with. My son just moved out and that is the main reason I'm still here. I guess now I will get punished for doing right. I will not be a slave for my life!
Can you avoid alimony with a prenup?
Hi, depends on the state. Pretty sure that in Illinois you can.
You can avoid it by never falling for the marriage trap to begin with, stay single
AWALT remember
ruclips.net/video/ffIfPcX8T70/видео.html
You avoid it by not getting divorced and not being the bread winner. If you are the bread winner and you walk out, chances are you are going to pay.
Doubtful. When you make someone dependent on you, then you have to take care of them. You would also have to prove that she can take care of herself.
What if one spouse is retired with pension, social security and 401k is 3 years older, the other has two years before they retire, no minor children. Would that be consideration for spousal support to pay the retired person? The only they have to split equally is the house. OR do they just give the house to a woman?
Morning, to be honest I don't know. Divorce and support is a very local issue. I strongly recommend you look for a family law attorney near you on Google so that you can get accurate advice. Sorry I can't be more help on this one.
I am a stay at home mom by his choice. I generally work but, after we moved to a new apartment, he made me quit my job. He got caught abusing us and left. I never asked him to leave, he was worried about police so he ran away. He had paid the rent but then reported his card stolen so it wasn’t paid. I am staring a new job soon but I am worried I will be evicted. I’m not asking for anything in the divorce but, I feel like he shouldn’t skip rent and leave my baby and I homeless. He has also sent emails to the apartment management asking them to evict me because I’m not working and he doesn’t live here anymore.

When I'm struggling to understand and maybe I'm jumping the gun I haven't finished the video yet is why does the person deserve the same level of comfort as when they were married especially when it's the unemployed wife or a wife that has a lesser job that initiates the divorce I don't understand why they deserve to maintain the same quality of life it's like quitting a good job for a bad job you make choices those choices come with consequences you should have to live with it this makes no sense to me whatsoever unless if there is some kind of abuse involved

Make sure you gray rock the narcissistic spouse
Do not let them get any reaction out of you whatsoever. Narcissists try to make you lose your temper so they can use it during the divorce to say you're unstable or violent so no matter what they do do not fall for that ploy you stay totally neutral in your behavior this usually cause their abuse to escalate for two to four weeks but if you stay strong in Gray rocking they give up after a while but don't let your guard down they are forever watching for a moment. Everything you say they will use against you so keep your eyes open and your mouth shut. The more you gray rock the more mistakes they make and then you make sure your document all those mistakes and give it to your lawyer. Best of luck you going to need it.

As it turned out it wasn't OUR plan to retire. It was his plan to retire with her and he was going to leave me high and dry. Then I found out that he had not only planned to leave me high and dry but for the last 20 years filing taxes he never claimed my income. He insisted he file the taxes and never claimed my income so my SS is squat. My friends said to me "E, you have no choice now but to seek out a lawyer. He really has you in a corner this time."
@@elainenilsson5472 I understand you are upset about it (I would be too) but just for the sake of me being able to understand. You petitioned for the divorce but you didn’t want the divorce?
Can a protection be possibly added in a prenup?
Not sure what you mean. If you do a prenup prior to getting married? Sure then. A lot depends on the laws in your jurisdiction. Probably best to look to a local attorney unless you're in IL then I can connect you with Mark.

Awesome video
Thank you
It is disgusting that some states still see cohabitation with someone else as a reason to stop spousal support. This concept comes from when women were considered property and that when they got into a new relationship they were then the property of this next man so the other one was off the hook. So also support is about contributions during the marriage, why would the recipient of spousal supports relationship diminish their contributions to the marriage?????
Well
I think that's actually fair
Why do you need to pay your ex that is with someone else and doesn't like you
@@bambinazo123 because she may have supported the furthering of your career while she had none and stayed at home to raise your children at your request. She exits the marriage without a career while you have a strong one because of her support. Whether she is with someone new does not negate her contributions. Thank goodness I'm in Canada, where this common sense is understood.
@@melaniedrew1097 then proceed to force you to pay a million dollars every month
Destroying your career in most cases
That's how it usually goes
@@bambinazo123 what on earth are you talking about 🤣🤣🤣. Ya that's what all the newly single moms get, millions 🤣🤣🤣. What a beautiful world it would be 😍. Anyways, you are waaaay out of touch with reality and I'm not wasting anymore precious time on your cognitive dissonance ☮️
@@melaniedrew1097 bro speaks like a scam bot 💀
Edit: bro deleted the reply 💀
What about Iowa laws
I understand and partially agree with what he said about the woman who had to set outside her education or career or who has those things but said it aside to raise children can't make the money that her husband is currently making I disagree and I also say so what depending on the age of the children she has the rest of her life to either catch up to where her husband was or is or to still bring in a very good sum of money I just don't understand how someone who is more or less symbiotic parasite to get divorce deserve to maintain her previous lifestyle from when she was married you weren't married and you didn't have as good of a life you got married you haven't very good life you've got divorced you should lose something other than your spouse doesn't make sense in it hurts my brain LOL
The wife can’t get her time wasted on you back. After many years of marriage, she becomes old and can’t play catch-up in the marketplace. Youth is also needed for decent employment. How many older people can go back into the job market and make enough money to afford their lifestyle from the marriage. I’m so glad the men who wrote the original laws have foresight and clarity of mind to take all a person does in their marriage into consideration.
What If both parties agree on a set monthly amount without using any legal obligation. Only amounts e.o. does it have to be on any legal documents.
In my case we have no kids we just fell out of love and of course we had our problmes we just do not want to be together. However she does not have a job and she has not worked in over a year. I have already been helping support her altho she is in a different state .
I'll revisit the question :
Does our " alimony " agreement to e.o. have to be on a legal document? And if so does the legal system have to base it on e.o. income or could we agree on the monthly payment I will be giving her? (Since she hasnt had any in a year)
Just curious
Honestly I dont know. Im sure it varies by state. But why no document?
Mine case is fixed for judicial conference, spousal support issues can be discussed by court or not
Does alimony end if a spouse remarries?
In Illinois I believe, again believe, that's the case. If you're outside IL you can look on Google. Should be easy to find.

yes
@@courageandpeace1944 eww
Wow ,doesn't seem fair. I've worked hard all my life build a nice 401k . My wife has never paid a single bill in our 20 years of marriage. She has a college degree but can't keep a job because she is an alcoholic. I just found out that she is cheating with several men . Just not fair that she could take half and then get monthly payments too.
❤
This needs to end.
THERE NEEDS retirement clause because income is going to change substantially.. alimony for life !!!
Spousal support is just having to be forced to help a gold digger that you hate
"Those change in circumstances " that just come all of a sudden after you have to pay modifiable support. Are Judges really that stupid to just them get away with it? What happens when spouses lie under oath? Are they ever held accountable? How about ATTYs who teach tactics that bring permanent harm to a family and feed the Narc personality so they pad their own bills?
Sounds like you've had an awful experience Marilyn. Sorry to hear that. Not sure what else to say about it. Barry

I avoided the under oath thing, lol..settlement is the way to go. That is a contract that can't be broken.
I would spy and take photos . Fair is fair
I mean unless you can prove that there's not very much the judges can do, and attorneys don't "teach tactics" they just inform people of the law in relevance to their situation
What is the limit in years you can be separated in order to get spousal support
Hi, that is a very local/state specific question. I recommend consulting with a local divorce attorney to get an answer to that question. Sorry I can't be more help on this one.
I have a spouse (we reside in Texas) who said I was abusive. I was absolutely not abusive and is being falsely accused and received a separate criminal charge.
In her discovery she admits cheating during the marriage. She is requesting spousal support. We were married for 8.5 years. Any ideas on this will go?
Unfortunately I do not. I'm in IL and don't know anything about TX divorce. Sorry about that.

@TheMrMarple actually its not over yet because of the coronavirus BS ...so court keeps being put off.
@TheMrMarple ill tell you after its over... shes sneaky and prob reading this. Lol
@Maarc S no sir its going nowhere. I had an attorney that quit the firm and then passed my case to another and then that person quit and now it's on the 3rd person. She won't sign the papers so I'm sure it will be taken to trial....someday.
Men don get marry until laws change !!
So is this the most depressing video on youtube or what?
I think Women should never leave Job & try to be independent. Don't rely on Husband even if he asks you to do so. Because it's really difficult to join workforce after a long break. Every Single Man hates to pay spousal Support.
lol - yeah right the court does not discriminate on gender? What rock have you been living under?
This should be illegal. Supporting grown adults
I've been married for 16 years but only lived with him 6 years, am I entitled to anything?
Hey Linda, listen, spousal support and all of those topics are super state focused. So I would strongly recommend going on Google and searching for a local divorce lawyer near you. I'm in IL and I assure you that the laws here will be different than where you are. I'd like to be more help but I don't want to b.s. you either....
Scam no such thing
Don't get married. Family law entices women to act upon their worst traits of hypergamy. Divorce is all but guaranteed. Let them fend for themselves for a change.
I filed for divorce 3 weeks ago after 25 years of marriage....i'm taking him all the way to the cleaners.
Did he cheat?
You are the devil.
Don't get married, it's overrated
What if he got fired and won't get another job?
Morning - family law is very state specific - I strongly recommend you consult with a local attorney on this issue. Sorry I can't be more helpful on this one.
