    Claim: He is deliberately going from a job that makes $300k per year to a job that makes $40k per year, because he does not want to pay support.

    Reality: You tell us, because the claim is obviously ridiculous.

    If you make $300k and spend $400k you’re not going to be successful......sorry for the confusion.
    Is the corporation failing or not?

      OBVIOUSLY that is ridiculous, but that is what he said to her in a text. He is going from a manager job to basically grunt labour because "work got slow".


      The corporation all along was basically just him as a sole proprietor "consultant" making his massive day rates. Making $1200 per day is obviously successful.

      Where it came into hard times was when he took 1.5 years off consulting and tried to start a store. The store was another numbered company that was "owned" by his original consulting company.....and he ran it into the ground and apparently racked up a bunch of debt. I believe this is where he gets the huge figures that he is threatening to sue her for. $180k is what he claims is her half.

      He spent all of 2018 working for the big rates again, but is conveniently going to be under employed in the New Year.....working for $20/hour.


      So whether it affects by credibility or not, that's the story. I guess the courts will decide.

        People who work in oilfield as "consultants" have this situation happening right now. It's no fun and putting many people out of business, jobs and homes.

        Unless he was a reasonable individual, I betcha dollars-to-doughnuts that he owes CRA massive amounts of money.... (It takes a lot of self-discipline to remit your taxes regularly).

        Perhaps he has to work under-the-table as CRA might have seized his bank accounts or he has claimed personal bankruptcy?

        In situations like these you likely are only hearing part of the story. If the work situation is industry-specific and he can show that he has tried his best to earn his previous income, no one will fault him as he at least is working.
