Something else as well, the legal system in regards to women and men in marriage / support is archaic.
women are equals in everything but divorce court and child custody cases.
My mother's ex husband, was married before he met my mother for what.. 15 years give or take, retired air force, she cheated on him, filed for a divorce, took the child they had together, and she gets a stupidly big chunk of his retirement check to the point that instead of now resting for the rest of his life, he has to go get another job to live the lifestyle he wants to live.
I have a friend / associate of mine who earlier this year, found out that the child that his wife and him had.. really wasn't his after filing a parteny test.. they filed for divorce she took the kid to arizona, so not only does he still have to pay child support for a kid that isn't his (he wants to pay it, that's not the issue,l but he had to pay it even if he didn't want to.. he shouldn't HAVE to), he now has to travel half way across the country to see his kid beucase she feels like up and leaving.
I mean, it's rough out there. that's another reason I put my business first.. I won't put myself in a position where a woman is able to say that she helped me create the wealth/lifestyle that I have.
This stuff needs to change.
