So he's paying about 150,000 per month in alimony and 15,000 per month child support. How did the judge decided on that
Jesus.
OJ Simpson was pissed about $10,000 & ended up cutting 2 people.
Like Chris Rock says about OJ :
" I' m not saying he should have killed her , but I understand".

Isn't Fisher the one who engineered trades from Utah & Dallas because of his daughter's illness supposedly? Then sources found out he just was using her as leverage to go where he wanted.
He gets more of a free pass than most players I can remember. This is a terrible look for him. I'd be shocked if he ever coached again

Alimony is the biggest crock of shite I've ever seen in the 21st century.

and $107,000 will not be spent on the kid. Love the system we have crafted for ourselves.
Good things it's not 150k in child support.

but it isn't the kid's fault that mommy and daddy can't work it out.

Less than $180k a year isn't a "minimal amount to get by."

That isn't the point, at least that isn't my point. Child support should be reflective of the wages earned, at least up to a certain amount. It also should have some sort of fiduciary standards applied to the parent receiving it (it may already, I don't really know). If you cannot justify the expense, the money shouldn't be spent, and any residual balance should offset future payments.
The bottom line is that the child should be the beneficiary of the funds and the child's livelihood should be protected as much as possible by the court.

How is it even logical to order someone to pay that much in child support per month? Is this just for one child?
My parents raised 3 kids on 25% of that

Why?
There was nothing requiring a parent to spend more than a minimal amount on their children prior to the separation. Either you are a responsible parent or you are not.
Do you think responsible fathers are going to stop caring for their children's well being? You are just as responsible for your child before the divorce as after. No more no less.
The fact is, financial dynamics change post separation, shared expenses are no longer shared. Family members, including children, have to adjust.
All this does is provide another revenue stream for women who vested in the good life by squeezing a kid out. All the hardship of the separation lands on one person, the father.

quote:And you know damn well that 80% of that child support isn't going to be spent on the kid. There are baby mommas running around buying shoes with their child support cards that don't even get a decent fraction of that kind of payment. The fact is that if it's not a necessary expense for the child, the parent isn't going to use that money for its "intended purpose".
The bottom line is that the child should be the beneficiary of the funds and the child's livelihood should be protected as much as possible by the court.

There are also a shite ton of mothers who spent way more on their kids than they'll ever get from the deadbeat fathers. It's a bad system proned to abuse, which is why I suggested a fiduciary responsibility be added to those funds.
There is no perfect method, to that we can agree.

What is an acceptable amount?

No clue how they do it, but couldn't you outline a certain amount for the kid, then the rest go to a fun for the kid until they're 18?
Still wondering, what's an acceptable amount?

Truly outrageous. Whatever judge makes rulings like this can rot in hell.
