I realize spousal support is negotiable, but in the scenario where a woman stayed home 6 years with kids and the man has a base wage of $150000/year would the man have to pay 40% of his wage to her for 6 years??
10 year long marriage 13 years cohabitation.
The scenario I offered her was mid-spousal based on an online calculator for 6 years. I imputed an income on her each year and went up each year.
Year 1 her income 0 mine 150k
year 2 her income 12000 mine 150k
year 3 her income 24000 mine 150k
year 4 her income 36000 mine 150k
year 5 her income 48000 mine 150k
year 6 her income 60000 mine 150k
Does anyone see anything wrong with this offer?
Am I really expected to pay the year 1 amount for 6 years?
The past couple years I've made a lot more (oilfield) but at this point the future isn't that bright so I feel it is a fair offer
Thanks for your help
