Spousal Support

[Mess]

dont sweat it he picks on me too.....and anyone else he may feel like.......

Damn! I thought Jeff was banning you again.

Sluggo, seriously, you have yet to post even one response to anyone that is helpfull in terms of family law.

Your only posts are either to argue with me or Arabian. You are transparent and pathetic.

Here is my challenge: Post for a month, just a month, not forever. Regularly, with factual, lawful advice for people who come here in need. Give them practical, useful advice.

I know this is something you have never done. I get that this will be hard for you. That is why I say it will be a challenge.

Do something positive, instead of just making outrageous statements to provoke a response from the authority figures that you are so afraid of that you can only respond to from an anonymous position. Show some balls and actually go out on a line and give some practical help to people in need. Show us that you are actually a decent human being who comes here to help people who need help. Pay forward.

If you aren't willing to do that, then you are just showing how you are a childish anti-social retard who is only interested in making insulting statements from a safe position where you will never have to answer for your shit.

Man up, or shut up, asshole.

the fact is with all the flaws in Family Law, this dude ain't getting away with his behaviour. I wish him well

Now if there was ever an oxymoron........you wish him well, but you also want to see him pay. That is confusing

Not at all, are you kidding me? I am productive, loving my work, enjoying my family, and live in peace. No verbal bashings, no outrage displays of anger, seriously, I just wanted what is fair and that is what I got.
Absolutely no spitefulness, more like justice.

momforever1956: I think the green-eyed new person in the ex's life is possibly the spiteful person in many cases. I can see how upset they would be at seeing large cheques cut each and every month to an ex wife. My answer to that is simply "I did my time and I'm gone and he's all yours!"

Yes there is justice sometimes.

My lawyer says a good part of his business is 2nd marriages and the resentment that the new spouce has for the X is getting money they feel entitled to. Amen to doing time and now its time for them to pay for the crime. Honestly, my heart truly goes out to the "new one", she didnt deserve to inherit my throw away.

 

[arabian]

In my case the "new one" most certainly deserves my ex.

I do get kind of a thrill when I think of her looking after him in his old age. I really missed a bullet there - phew!

she didnt deserve to inherit my throw away.

I think you will find that feeling is mutual between parties.....

This might even go as far back to before the couples met i.e. past lovers saying the same thing

Perhaps they have a good thing going on that you don't know of?

Do you have any statistics to back that up?

Love when people just come on and say ......I had a "career", x.y,z hindered me from carrying on. What is the career that you speak of? Unless you work for CSIS state this so called "career" please

If you don't have a university degree or some form of minimum 2yrs college diploma...don't be calling your job a career!

This is entirely untrue. I have/had a very successful career in sales and marketing until recently and have neither a college or university education or degree. I did attend college for a completely unrelated field but did not complete the requirements to attain any certification. Being good/successfull at your job does not necessarily mean financially.

In fact, being responsible for the hiring at the company I was working for, nearly every single applicant that applied or that I hired that had a college or university degree was for a completely unrelated field.

So if they do the same job as I do, but they have a college or university degree, even though in an unrelated field, ,only they can refer to their job as a career, and I cannot as I have no official college or university degree?

These days, there is no reasons for anyone not to have an education, or any adult fending for themselves...failure to do so can either be blamed on on the parents in the way they brought up their kids, or just pure damn laziness on the part of the individuals

@arabian, just so you can see where am coming from, see this definition below

There are lots of reasons people don't get to have the education they would like or need to get a higher paying job. For example, working full time, parenting full time, putting your own kids through college/university. This creates a viscious circle of can't afford to pay to get the a college or university education, can't get a higher paying job without it. But you supported your spouse while they achieved this, why should you not be entitled to the same?


And once again, this thread has deteriorated to all the reasons why people should NOT get SS, rather than the original question of when SS haters see SS as being appropriate, and what criteria should be met in order for this to happen.

 

[oink]

Oh dear...here come the late country bumpkins

I did attend college for a completely unrelated field but did not complete the requirements to attain any certification.

Why was that then? Am sure we can take a guess

 

[blinkandimgone]

You can guess all you want. However, there was a requirement for work placement that I was unable to complete as none of the qualifying placements would accept me as neither their nor the college's insurance would cover me, which was mandatory.

And my question to you was:

So if they do the same job as I do, but they have a college or university degree, even though in an unrelated field, ,only they can refer to their job as a career, and I cannot as I have no official college or university degree?

I've cleaned up the last couple of pages of this thread as it was getting out of hand.

The thread will be closed for 24 hours and then I will re-open it.
