I always have this question in mind but never bother to ask. New forum member Belravos (thanks for sharing BTW) shared his story of his marriage in another thread that how much the cost of an unhappy marriage/divorce outweighs the cost of punting. Obviously there have been some similar stories shared in the forum.
But I just wonder have anyone here married a rich or high income wife? Would this change the whole story. I suppose you will have more spare money to spend and compensation from divorce if it happens?
Blokes with high income wives are too busy cleaning the dishes to be on the forum!
All kidding aside, I'm the breadwinner in the family, but the mrs family is absolutely loaded with assets - so whilst I carry the day to day expenses burden, she'll be the one who gets us over the line when it comes to buying property etc.
For now i just keep my head down and punt in upmost secrecy
You wife's income or assets is irrelevant. You are still expected to be the one who provides financially as the man
So whatever is yours is hers.
And whatever is hers is hers.
And whatever assets she has will pass down to your kids. So its of no benefit to you
Amen... after divorce I was in a LT, 16 yrs relationship with a successful lass.... selfish twatOriginally Posted by mn69
Well said. This assertion is 100% correct.
I'm expected to provide financially regardless if I am the breadwinner or not. It doesn't matter if her side of the family is loaded with assets and has cash to buy my family multiple properties and give us a good retirement. That won't happen, as all the proceeds will go to our kids. I'm OK with this arrangement, I'll have a more fulfilling life than to rely on others.
In a Western country, men almost always lose in the family court in case you haven't noticed
Not 100% correct about men losing majority of times and having to provide regardless. Been through divorce twice now, even with kids its almost 50/50 asset split with shared custody. Most couples are even footed these days in terms of incomes and assets. Seen my mates divorce too, its B.S that the guy loses everything.
As for a high net worth female, you wont be touching her shit, guaranteed if she is from a rich family everything is under a trust structure. And if she earns more than you, hahaha, u will be simping and doing all the cooking, cleaning and chores... oh dont forget giving her foot massages every day after work
Good to know. You're one of the lucky few who got off easy. You forgot about the part where the guys gets accused of "domestic violence". Has an AVO put on him. Now she has the kids that you will only see on her terms, if you get to see them at all. She will then weaponize your own kids against you.Not 100% correct about men losing majority of times and having to provide regardless.

And you will be paying child support and she gets the house.
You're assuming that she will play fair and things will be split 50/50 my dude. Its not a happy ending for most men.
For a high net worth female, I would imagine the guy would also be a high net worth guy. As girls tend to marry up socio-economically. So in that case, you are still expected to provide financially on top of doing house chores.
Mind giving us an example how she could get more than a 50/50 split?
Its up to the family court to decide. Depends what assets are involved, length of marriage, if there was a pre-nup, contributions during the marriage, who gets the kids. Future needs etc. Will be different for everyone.
It will only be 50/50 in a fair and fairy tale perfect world.
So you have experience in this?
How much money in the bank account is considered rich? And how much salary is high? How many assets are considered many? I have to ask first..
I have dabbled into many industries in my lifetime. Legal being one of them....
In general, but it depends on which financial institution you ask.
High net worth individual = $2.5 Million+
Ultra High net worth individual = $30 Million+
Get married, go through a nasty divorce and find out for yourself my brother. Then you can tell us your first hand experience 555
You must visit Thailand often to switch from lol to 555
Doing that right now. I'll let you know
Whatever the cost is it’s worth it. What price do you put on your freedom?
As one of my favourite character says: the price of freedom is steep
Not bothered with the costs, i just want be able untie the knot, get over it, and to start again. Not with anyone else to drain my brain, energy, and life any more.
I’ve already helped one guy get divorced, for three years I heard him complain every day about her till I had enough and booked the solicitors appointment. After that I never heard him complain and I even advised him on his new wife. Truth. Yep I had a profound influence on his destiny.
Some people just need a lil push to get the ball rolling.
