re: Getting financially screwed in divorce

Personally, I don't think it should. Someone should not continue to receive the benefit of a contract if the contract has been terminated. Nordic countries do this much better.

Child support is one thing, but a former spouse should at the most get a year or two of some financial support while they make alternative arrangements to support themselves (and that's only if they weren't really employed during the marriage).

I'm more on your side. I just don't think the U.S. System will ever come to that so trying to think of some middle ground, since common sense gets thrown out the window in a divorce.

Watched some documentary called Divorce Corp a few years ago and it's enfuriating how bad the U.S. System is.
