I'm not an older guy but I pay 70% of my income to the whore that stole our kids from me.
Family court is fucked, if you are a dad.

I am currently spending my kids' college funds in lawyer fees. No, I won't give up on my kids. Got to keep positive. There really is no other choice for the next 15 years.
TRPTosser 5y ago
That's fucking brutal. Good luck.
TimPartendale 5y ago
It’s also a shit situation because fighting to pay less theoretically means your kids will get less but it also means you’ll be able to sustain yourself and your ex won’t get her paws on your money.
MNCPA 5y ago
I've already tried to mediate the situation but her response is that she wants to go to court. Yes, this was via text messaging. Yes, we are bringing it to court.
AwkwardEmpath 5y ago
Yeah but how do you know everything you're giving to your ex wife is actually going directly to your kids? How much is spent buying clothes so she can look good and get dick?? This is fucked up. Child support should work different so it's directly relative to what your kids need.
flapjacksrbetter 5y ago
Is it possible to not marry but have the “wedding” and kids. Would the courts still side with the women because u guys live together even tho a formal marriage certificate was never signed?
mushroom_overlord 5y ago
With the kid in play, it doesn't matter, as you don't have to be married to pay child support. That would be where 70% of his income is supposedly going. the only thing she theoretically gets to herself is in the divorce, so not marrying and being in a state without common law marriage (look it up) avoids that problem. However, once the kid pops out you are fucked if you split and get a bad deal in court, no matter whether you were bonded in holy matrimony.
Of course, in practice she is spending more money on herself than the kids, so you may as well just be paying her having never married her. Either the court system does not understand how selfish people are, or it is actively being a method for women to get a free ride; I think a bit of the former and a lot of the latter.
MNCPA 5y ago
Some states have a de facto marriage clause where if you live like you are married to someone for x amount of years, then you are legally married. Fir example, in Iowa, it is 7 years.
Child support is based on parentage.
[deleted] 5y ago
What the hell
flapjacksrbetter 5y ago
Theres no way around it huh. Gotta give half your stuff to her even if u guys didnt sign
mushroom_overlord 5y ago
So the way around it is to not live in these places. Minus the ones "prior to X date" assuming you have't been with your partner since 1991-2003, and inheritance only (who cares, you're dead).
Jacked1703 5y ago
I have 2 kids. I left my marriage due to infidelity by my ex wife.
I work a regular job making slightly over 50K a year while she remained voluntarily unemployed.
According to the calculations offered by the court (Virginia, USA) I would’ve been expected to pay $900 per child per month, and $400 per month in spousal support.
I work 4 days on 4 days off and have my kids all 4 of my days off.
So ultimately, according to court calculations I’d pay $2200 for two kids despite having them half the time.
All this on top of having to keep her and both the kids on my health insurance.
WontonSoup77 5y ago
Just to offer a counter, I make a good amount more than you in the same state but only pay 200 with 50/50. My ex is not unemployed though which I’m sure plays a big part.
Jacked1703 5y ago
My answer was based solely on the court calculations. Using the bargaining chips I had I knocked her down to agreeing to $240 per month per child.
And yes, her employment status plays a ridiculously large amount into the court calculations. Even if she had a minimum wage job it would cut my liability in about half
telop1 5y ago
Wait, "would've"? Is it only hypothetical because you could prove she cheated?
Jacked1703 5y ago
No. The spousal support is the only thing that would change solely based on the infidelity. Child support stays the same.
Also infinitely in insanely hard to gain divorce on.
It’s a criminal issue. For abandonment or any other civil grounds for divorce you have to provide proof enough under the standard called “preponderance of the evidence” which just means more likely than not. For adultery, since it’s criminal you have to meet the standard of proof that is “beyond a reasonable doubt.” To put it another way with preponderance you have to provide 51% of proof, for reasonable doubt you have to provide 99.9% of proof.
Adultery also solely means sex, you must prove that actual sex occurs. So even if you can provide video of two people rolling around under covers and moaning that doesn’t meet the standard of proof of reasonable doubt.
I had other bargaining chips to use to knock down the amount of child support and spousal support.
TimPartendale 5y ago
Sounds like you’d have to set up a nanny cam to catch your wife banging some other dude, with FBI facial reconstruction of the video evidence, followed by a forensic semen analysis of the bed covers, all to prove, beyond a doubt, that she cheated on you.
blackswans042 5y ago
What the fuck
cl3537 5y ago
Haha we don't have such stupid laws. No Fault Divorce in Canada it doesn't matter what the reason is the money split doesn't change.
The USA has some great places but your legal system is so fucked up and you are such a litigious gun toting society.
If I ever move to Florida I am going to have to get lawyer friends and make sure I avoid all the "traps".
whoareyou31 5y ago
I really hope all these testimonies in this thread are real and truthful because after reading this shit, it’s really making me not want to get married.
Playerslife4me 5y ago
It should be making you to not want to have kids.
whoareyou31 5y ago
I want to have kids. Part of why i want to make hella money is to raise a family. I think ill still get married ceremony wise but no legal contract
Playerslife4me 5y ago
That is still a bad idea. You should not cohabitate with a woman under any circumstances. She decides she wants your money and ride all the cock she wants she can call the police and claim you assaulted her. The police will come and they will arrest you regardless. Then she will file a protection order against you and put your kids on it. Now you can't go to your own house or see your own children. If you bought the house while you were together she will have a legitimate case for half of the house. With all this money you are making the child support will be in the thousands while only being allowed supervised visits of your children.
Just say no
whoareyou31 5y ago
That's why you pick a girl who is going to contribute to the mortgage as well.
"ride all the cock she wants" ....what is with this idea that all women cheat. I like redpill, but the extremism is seriously ruining the core of redpill. AWALT and all women are whores ideals are very incel/women hating.
This isnt what redpill about. Stop promoting bullshit.
gothgar 5y ago
I pay $ 2,000
0FO6 5y ago
Yes I am sure that is more than possible. Also, doesn’t have to even be your own kid either. I am paying child support for a kid that isn’t mine. While I have 2 of the kids that are mine.
eaazzy_13 5y ago
Wtf?? How’s that work man?
0FO6 5y ago
I was more or less coerced into putting my name down on his birth certificate which established me as his father. After the years that we were together he wasn’t specifically told (her desire that I went along with). We then separated and initially he lived with me, then not too long ago due to issues I was having with him and the other kids decided to fly him to where the ex lives (she lives a couple thousand miles away in a different state). At which point she told him that I wasn’t his father. But the state they are in doesn’t care since I have been established as the father I am fully responsible for him. Even though at this point it is highly unlikely that I will really see him let alone spend any significant time with him because she has him all on the hate train against me. Like she has him convinced that I mentally abused him among other crap. She is rather good at gaslighting people, which is unfortunate that she would do it to her own kid. Also the state is content on punishing my success in this as well, since I make significantly more money than she ever could dream of I am required to pay more in general.
nordicpolarbear 5y ago
That’s why it’s just cheaper to keep her if you can. Make sure she works full time too.
atticusfinch1973 5y ago
As much as I love my kids if there was some kind of BS settlement like that which would require me to be in the poorhouse I would leave the country. I’d do my best to let my kids know I loved them as much as I could and exactly why I couldn’t be there with them. Hopefully when they got older they would understand.
Sunny_07 5y ago
What country are you going to?
obonaven 5y ago
I pay just over 50% of my take home pay to my Ex for Alimony and Child support. Just under $3k.
chachaChad 5y ago
You have no idea how much this guy makes a month. I would gladly pay $2300 a month and not even notice it.
I don't think there is a max number here in the US. It's based of what you make and what she makes. If she hasn't had a job and isn't going to be getting one, you're on the hook for the entire thing. On the other had, if she has a job or is capable of getting one, the judge may take that into account.
johnnight 5y ago
It would be much better if the state regulated this on a true cost basis.
Solomint 5y ago
the state doesn't regulate anything on a true cost basis. And it makes sense for the state to pander to women from a political objectives perspective because women tend to vote for whomever keeps the bureaucratic growth momentum going strong as long as you throw em a few bones. That's why the franchise was expanded in the first place
cl3537 5y ago
Difficult to do it that way, family in the nice big house, you expect a one family income (wife usually makes a fraction if anything as the husband) to afford two nice big houses when they could barely afford one before.
francie-brady 5y ago
My life seems so much better now after reading this.
clockwise1256 5y ago
In Australia, child support is based on the percentage of care that each parent has per week or fortnight. If OP had care of the kids for even 1 day a week then his payments would drop by like 15%
TimPartendale 5y ago
But that’s a double whammy to a wife: she’ll have to lose the kids for a day to Dad and lose some of her monthly free money.
dgillz 5y ago
Bingo.
ripSOCRATES 5y ago
Is no one going to tell him that double wrapping condoms makes it easier to break the condom? or did the joke fly over my head?
xxLMxx 5y ago
I paid more than that (2 kids 25% of pre tax income, California) plus another 1,800 a month in alimony. It sucked but I'm past it
[deleted] 5y ago
I love that on top of all of this, I can't look at a tv or a cell phone without seeing that the pay gap between men and women is unfair. American women really have it bad. The next civil war really might be between women and men, with beta orbiters fighting on the side of women.
enderbeannn 5y ago
I know you're kidding or at least I hope so but 2 condoms is less effective than 1
[deleted] 5y ago
always make sure your bitch has a job before marrying her. and if she suggests she might quit, suggest you might divorce her
somebullshitrp 5y ago
I pay my ex $1,750 a month in alimony. The payments will go on for three years until they're done. This was after a TWO year marriage. After that I can look forward to another 15 years of partying $1,000 a month in child support.
Never marry.
cl3537 5y ago
Here is another take, you got off cheap and you have kids that she is going to take care of. Get off your cheap lazy(or dumb) ass and make more money.
WolfofAllStreetz 5y ago
Yea, marriage and kids is no joke my friend.
Being married is Red Pill on Nightmare Mode.
Make sure you find the right one, do not settle. Marriage isn't for everyone.

You think seeing your kids four days a month while the mother is brainwashing them 26 days gives them masculine leadership...lol. I've got prime ocean front property for you in AZ.
HiredMind 5y ago
To an extent, I agree. All running away does is cede the battlefield to the enemy (Referring to the courts as 'enemy' here, not women. Women are who they are.)
On the contrary, we should be organizing; demanding reform; pressuring our representatives; offering and sponsoring legislation.
Playerslife4me 5y ago
That's been tried to death, not going to happen. In case you haven't noticed, we are exponentially worse off then even just ten years ago.
The real solution is for people to stop believing government is a legitimate authority. Fat chance of the happening as well. Most people love government authority and wish to use it as a means to control people to their desires.
gaki123 5y ago
Hey bro but at least he will leave a BOOK who cares about father presence!
fucking lmao what a dumbass
Playerslife4me 5y ago
You're a real loser. Go get raped by the courts and have your life destroyed by the courts all the while having your kids taught to hate you. Yeah, that will show em you're a man.
P.S. What does that teach your kids? Your girls will learn that men are there to extort. Your boys will learn that being a "man" is to let everyone beat on you and you just take it.

VasiliyZaitzev 5y ago
Dunno about the laws in Aus, but in the States you can pay 40% of your gross to a woman basically to bang other guys and teach your kids to hate you.
And yet, guys still get married.
There's a documentary called "Divorce Corp" on youtube that goes into how fucked divorce is in the states. Should be required watching for anyone considering marriage here.

Any idea how the marriage situation is in Europe?

TimPartendale 5y ago
It’s insanity but the cost-per-guest of a wedding in the US is now creeping up to ~$140/person. At 200 people, that’s $28,000 already. Factor in the ring, dress, photographer, DJ, booze for now 200 guests, exclusive venue... it can get out of hand quickly.
An easy fix is to not invite so many damn people - many of which you’ll never talk to again after the wedding. Got a large family? Trim the wedding itself to immediate family and invite everyone else to a reception. Spending more than 12k on a wedding seems like a lot to me... and I have money to waste.
[deleted] 5y ago
That's WHY you have money to waste....because you don't waste it on stupid shit like fancy parties for overgrown and underfunded, faux-princesses that don't want to pay for their own "tea parties". Smart man.
Aggressive_Beta 5y ago
It is very weird how much people want to increase the amount of control the government has over them, despite how much control it already has over them. Statism is simultaneously a religion and a cancer
bcdude2 5y ago
There are benefits to getting married on paper... Tax purposes, inheritances. If you truly love the other person, you definitely want to make sure they're gonna be okay if something happens to you.. Doesn't got to be marriage but it can make things easier.
Turkerthelurker 5y ago
The decline of religion hasn't made people less religious, it's just changed which authority they worship.

Instead of worshipping a creator that may or may not exist and not give a fuck about them, they worship a government that they know for fact exists and definitely does not give a fuck about them

I pay 800 month for a 8 year old and I’m only bringing home 4000 month net before taxes. Houston, TX

ForeverNandrolone 5y ago
This is in New York.
My ex was a bit of a bum and only worked about half the time we were married. I made about $150k a year working a shit ton of overtime to make up for the fact that she didn’t bring in much money. She made $30k a year when we divorced. I pay $2500 a month for 3 years and then $2000 a month for 6 years. $234000 over 9 years. Here’s the kicker, we never had kids! This is just me paying her because she was a fucking bum. Don’t get married.
NEVER HAD KIDS!
Kommanderdude 5y ago
Alimony is a bitch. Prenup is required these days of your dead set on being married.
stillah 5y ago
prenups get thrown out all the time in court. if you get married in america, you are not as smart as you think you are.
[deleted] 5y ago
My dad was making 100k a year in California in the mid 90's. Mom didn't work. Dad got hit with an order for $2300 a month in child support and alimony for one child (me). Mom decided she didn't have to work anymore at that point. I lost a TON of respect for my mother at that point. It went on for about a year until my dad decided "F&ck it, if she doesn't work, neither will I" and it got reduced to a reasonable $600/mo child support and no alimony. Mom got a job, and some of my respect back. Dad got to live in a house without wheels again.
I decided I wouldn't marry a woman that didn't make close to what I did for exactly this reason. I don't mind paying for my child, but I'm not going to be private welfare for some lazy woman with a vendetta. Its 2018, we're equals.....get your ass to work.
[deleted] 5y ago
[deleted]
[deleted] 5y ago
Yup, and see my dad bust his ass 50+ hours most weeks to support us and him. Just because he left doesn't mean he should have to support her forever. Stupid CA alimony laws. This is 2018, we are equals. Get your ass a job, woman. Now, I'm a high-earner and will not remarry, but when I dated before I met my now-ex wife, I would not date women that didn't have a college degree or 60k+ income. I was looking for a wife and because most marriages don't last, I wanted to be sure that I didn't have to support some lazy housewhale who is getting nailed by the neighbor kids after we divorce. My ex-wife now earns her $$, no alimony and actually has some self-worth and self-esteem. Imagine that. NAWALT....just a little bit.
BPasFuck 5y ago
Why do you dummies think we continually preach 'Don't get married!' here?
Jesus Christ.
If someone really could break down how much of the 'child support' actually goes to paying for mom's make up, and clothes so she can snare a new man, instead of 'the kids,' well... it'd be some shameful shit.
Worse, how much of the money goes to pay for her and her new man's entertainment?
TimPartendale 5y ago
Sounds like a good TV reality show. I’m sure all of the child’s portion is not actually enriching the child.
cl3537 5y ago
Because those smarter than a doorknob around here(that may be stretching it for some) either:
A) Doesn't live in a mensrape divorce country(the world isn't the same). B) If they do live in mensrape country is smart enough to get an airtight prenup and live in a state with reasonable laws.
BPasFuck 5y ago
No such thing as an airtight prenup.
There's no small number of guys that thought they had a secure prenup, and found out there are all kinds of excuses a judge may use to toss them (prenups) out.

LiveAFTSOV 5y ago
Can you explain the "fatherless children" epidemic then?
How is that possible? How are people dodging child support and the divorce courts?
BPasFuck 5y ago
The epidemic is exaggerated.
Why?
So courts and others can accrue more power.
There are entire industries predicated upon forcing a non-custodial spouse (Usually the man) to pay up.
BPasFuck 5y ago
You're being pedantic.
Married guys are more likely to have fathered children when the relationship ends, than unmarried guys.
MuhTriggersGuise 5y ago
40% of children being born out of wedlock is pedantic? Lol k. Sorry.
BPasFuck 5y ago
I'd be curious to see how those numbers break down by ethnicity.
cl3537 5y ago
Stay in school junior, keep reading, wedlock has nothing to do with being a father or a child being fatherless.
MuhTriggersGuise 5y ago
Really? Wow it's almost like I was commenting that child support decisions are regardless of whether a couple was married, and not whatever bullshit you're being a catty little bitch about.

LiveAFTSOV 5y ago
Still funny though. It's a factual statement. Lol. Dont get mad.
Playerslife4me 5y ago
This is one of the most pathetic things I see spouted around here. This belief proves you are a slave to your desires and emotions.
I would consider this as completely anti red pill
LiveAFTSOV 5y ago
"Being a slave to desires and emotions" would be getting a vasectomy to continue reaching orgasms without worrying about kids, or vomiting emotional garbage like you did right now.
That's anti red pill.
I considered getting a vasectomy for hedonistic purposes. Decided against it for the same reason I told you, it's deleting yourself from the gene pool lol.
I like having the possibility of procreation when I smash ass.
Original_Dankster 5y ago
You can romanticize / fetishize reproduction all you want, but whether there's a replicant me after I'm gone won't make a difference to me after I'm gone. But in the meantime, I'm thoroughly enjoying life with little risk of disruption.
When you smash ass and get an oops baby with a BPD psychopath who destroys your life in divorce court, remember this post.
LiveAFTSOV 5y ago
You act like having kids is bad.
It's not good or bad, it just is.
Go enjoy life. That's good.
Black_m0ngoose 5y ago
Tagging /u/playerslife4me as this was directed at his reply, but you can still get something out of this perhaps.
The red pill is about seeing the world for what it is, not how you want to see it.
He is absolutely right, you deleted yourself from the gene pool.
Your only response should be "yes, I did. Your point?"
Instead, you break fame to defend yourself. Never DEER, you owe him no explanation. You only validate his claim that you're weak.
A man who has a castle is a shave to it, because then he is obligated to defend it.
Simply be a man without a castle, then you have nothing to defend- you are then free.
Don't be a slave to fear.
Playerslife4me 5y ago
That would make this subreddit quite short. I'm not gaming anyone on here like they're a woman. I'm simply making a counter stance. Implying that you are somehow less of a man for not wanting kids is feminist shaming language and has no place here.
To follow your logic all the way through, it would be a loss of frame by replying at all. I should ignore to keep frame. That would make for a subreddit filled with nothing but bullshit.
cl3537 5y ago
In Canada child support is on a fixed schedule (no judge can change it) and its based on the income of both spouses. The law assumes the more money the parents make the higher the cost of living should be for the children.
Assuming his ex makes nothing he probably makes between 300,000 and 350,000 net a year and the child support is peanuts like 9 - 10% of net income after taxes. Much less than if he had pay to take care of the kids full time.
Australia has a very similar system and fixed capped formula like Canada but one thing is clear he has two or more kids (the cap for one kid is less than 2300/month), its a lot more fair than in the United States, child support is for the children and no judge or lawyer can change the formula.

Yea, it's messed up. You have zero control on where the money goes. If she buys your kids food or uses it to buy a new perfume for her date. You have zero say on it. Only thing you can do is not think about it.

He seems to have more than 1 kid from what you write?
Also he's senior = he's probably earning a lot.
If it's for the children why not, as long it's not alimony for the ex-wife. I mean, you won't bring your money in your tomb so you might as well share it with your own offspring.

Too bad it doesn't actually go to the kids

Yeah, in Australia there is no such thing as alimony. It is based on your income and the percentage you see the child. Still I would want to be in the child's life not only for being their father but at least to make sure the money is being used on the child.

Agreed, dumb comments on legal matters, dumb comments on tax matters, dumb comment on custody matters.
We are the victims bla bla bla. Its funny how this garbage is okay as 'evidence' not to get married or have kids, but its not okay in the rest of what TRP preaches about not acting like a victim when women mistreat you.

Yeah, because no woman ever lied about those things in a court. The fuq?
Anyway, nix the moralizing.

Courts not only do that, they have convicted men and sent them to prison solely on the word of a vindictive ex-wife.

And you sound like a delusional nutcase when you argue than courts are infallible. Google Brian Banks sometime.
