Was she the one singing? Producing? Doing PR? Gerrarahia. Y'all gold digging opportunists.
that’s his half of the equation. She did her half in the home. He wouldn’t have been successful if he had to do his and her portion of the job.

Only if you are 100% the breadwinner and the woman doesn’t support you in any way shape or form. Like cooking or cleaning, bearing and raising the children, doing your laundry, fvcking you, providing companionship and emotional support.

If she was just a statue in the home, then of course you’re right. If she did any of the above, then it was a team effort and every member of the team deserves their share of the family money when the family splits apart. It’s simple logic.
In this context I think akon will be maybe not 100 % bread winner but far far the greater percentage as am sure so many men around the world other why would you marry us in the first place. Love? .

Raising children involve payment of bills food health care and school fees. Who do you think account for that. Taking care of a child is looking after them. Who do you really think does that. I mean really does it?. Yes u won't have a huz to clean if there was no huz in the first place. You have a role yes. But some roles are far more demanding than others. You understand this in formal set up. But deny it in domestic ones. Yet you all long for a rich man. You won't get any long enough with this mentality. You will get what you deserve...a continuous endless search.

As far the fcking
..We do the good fvking not you. You take it. There us a difference. It's why you scream. Am on you you beneath me. See how it's ordered even with sex?

29 years of marriage and you think she didn’t work for “Akon’s money”? You people are delusional.
It is their money. Not his money.
Mothers bank account or not, he will have to find a way to get I back and pay her what she is entitled to. Period!

That’s not my job. The judge will do it. I’m Just telling you how it is.

If you don’t think a woman isn’t entitled to “your money”, then please never get married. Any income earned while married is family money. No his and hers. It’s all communally owned. Even the wife’s income. Make peace with it or avoid marriage. Simple as ABC.

family money kill you there. Na you work for am. Cleaning huz don turn Hussle. You no sleep for the huz or you no eat or I no give you pocket money or you no get your own business. Why you no turn yours to million so you split with me. You will get what you deserve and that's nothing. Child cones with me.

You don’t get it. The hypothetical business money that’s supposedly “hers” is also his and hers. That’s how it is in a marriage.

It goes both ways. If the business is yielding millions and he’s not making any money, he’s still entitled to half of the business.

Don’t be emotional pls.

First of all, Sorry for your loss. My condolences.

Baby mama or not, you still have to take care of the children you had.
If baby mama lived in the same house with you for a long time, she’s also entitled to certain benefits under common law marriage.

You guys need to quit trying to eat your cake and have it back.

Joke of the century. Tell that to all the men who insist they don’t want a liability wife. They want a woman who brings in money and the men collect spousal support from their wives after divorce. Y’all keep lying to yourselves.

That's money is too small to share.
ah the misogynistic assumption that the man will always have more money.


Why being interest in someone else money you no longer interested in.
Not someone else’s money. THEIR MONEY.
Anything he earns after the divorce or after the alimony payment period is over can rightfully be called his. But before then it’s theirs. Argue with your ancestors bro kiss

Let's say hypothetical for clarity you and me are married. You doing your business and me mine and we cooperatively paying the bills. If we were to split Shouldn't you just go with your business money and me mine?

Hypothetically yes. That’s how it should be. That’s why I encourage everyone never to depend on anyone. But in situations where one party is a stay at home parent. Or one earns significantly higher income, then the person with more means pays the support.

The goal is never to punish anyone but to ensure that the divorce doesn’t cause undue hardship to the partner who earned less income. Especially if them earning less was as a decision to stay unemployed and support the other person’s career. It’s fair. Women pay it too.

Ok I see you talk in good fate encouragingly fairness and hard work independently. I respect that. But you do realize it's not one matrix of thought. Granted in agreed case for stay at home, for the woman.there should be settlement going forward on divorces. But it should not be crazy amount. She is not business incline to invest. Like you said she is a stay at home mum. development investment instinct takes time.. some amount are outrageousness and born out of greed not fairness. But that's a whole separate take.

Alternatively there are case of sought were the lady being ok married to rich man just refuse to work but engage in lazy spending and demand more to satisfy that urge when there is divorce...how do you contain that in fair accessment I

The system of the world is heavily rigged against men.

Awareness is the first step to be free from their clutches.

Your wife or girlfriend does not love you.

You were her best option.

That’s why you should vet your potential partner seriously. In the event of laziness or they refuse to get/stay employed and if contrary to what you guys previously agreed upon, then divorce is always an option.

The longer you stay married, the higher the chances that you’ll have to pay them alimony or a lump settlement. Sometimes if you divorce within a few years with no kids involved, you might not have to pay anything. Obviously it’s case by case. not a blanket judgment.

If you’re married for over 10 years , they’re entitled to everything including your retirement. Yes your retirement that you contributed to while married during the 10 years is considered family money as well. Marriage is a serious affair and people need to start treating it as such. Not everyone should get married.

So basically you saying only honest strong dedicated wife should get paid. I concur. 29yrs is fair time..I think she deserve compensation. But 100mil. I don't think that's fair. way too much.

They have been married for 29 years! So, he should just dump her in the streets?

She is also mother to his kids. Children do not like their mothers being unfairly treated. They may also be privy to things we outsiders are unaware of. I dislike golddiggers.

If the marraige lasted for a short time, I can accept she walks away with little. But 29 years, you must be kidding me.
So why is he not entitled to walk away with something from her

I don’t really care what you think of me 🙂.

I said it’s for their accountants and the judge to decide. That’s the fair approach. Who on earth am I to place value on what her contribution to the marriage was?

If they have 150 million dollars, then $100 million is unfair as that would be almost 70% of their assets.

But if he’s a billionaire, 100 million is only 10% of their worth. Is she worth only 10% after dedicating 3 decades to him? I don’t know.

Therefore………the only people qualified to assess and decide what’s fair for her to get are their accountants and an unbiased judge respectively. Let them run the numbers.

I hang my boot here. Good night 💤

Actually, the law does not discriminate between men or women. Whoever is the richer one, pays.

So why did you feel she was not the richer one and wanted Akon to pay her off,

Akon being more popular does not translate to being richer
