Dear Quentin,
I live in Utah, and I have been seeing a married man for almost six years. No, I’m not ashamed. Although we both care greatly for each other, our relationship started as and remains a mutually beneficial one: money for me, companionship for him.
He has been my sole source of income for the last 5 years, paying every single expense I have, and he is happy to do so because he loves me and I provide an escape from his miserable home life (his words). He’s been married a long time, and his only child is grown.
He is much, much older than I am, and he recently set up a life-insurance policy of $100,000 with me as the beneficiary. His wife knows nothing of me or the policy. We’ve taken steps to ensure I can get a copy of his death certificate without his family knowing.
He is mentally sound (always has been) and in great health. I need to know if his wife would have any claim to that policy should she discover it after his death. What is the likelihood a lawsuit would be in her favor if she sued? Does it matter who makes the payments on the policy?

Dear Other Woman,
Shame is a terrible, destructive force in individuals and societies, and I would not wish that anyone.
Married life is more complicated than many people care to admit. Some marriages have “don’t ask, don’t tell” arrangements. Others are marriages of conveniences. And others keep one person is completely in the dark about their spouse’s infidelities. And, yes, some wives are probably glad to have time and space for themselves, and would rather others listen to their husbands.
To your question, Utah is an equitable division state,

100k?! Renegotiate for better coverage.
I can’t read the answer to letter. But Insurance policies do not go through probate.
I’m surprised the Life Insurance company let him designate a beneficiary different from his wife without the wife agreeing to it
Please. A little too much sanctimony. Marriages are contracts and the states have their own laws that govern the contract. It’s as libertarian as it comes to say if you don’t want to be governed by laws of Utah, don’t move there. This isnt grab people’s money case, this is a marital relations case. I’m not a member of the UT bar, but my extremely quick review suggests wife might be out of luck
Nope, it is what it is and is not part of his estate per se.
Shame is powerful but not destructive, it is part of the glue that holds society together. Unfortunately we have done everything to eliminate shame.
The man in this relationship is most at fault and I hope he gets what is coming but knowingly being involved in the situation is almost as bad. Additionally the fact that she is basically doing it for the money makes her part of the oldest profession.
LOL, a well funded prostitute wants to keep collecting after her mark is dead. The Mark is too stupid for words. This particular prostitute has figured a way to get all the payment not sharing it with a pimp. And she want sto screw the wife now too when the mark dies off.
Riiiiiiight. I’m calling shenanigans on this one.
He’s a sugar daddy and she’s a sugar baby. There’s a website (Seeking Arrangement) to facilitate this. On last night’s Dateline, a Utah woman met her demise by becoming a sugar baby.
My wife says she wouldn't take care of some old codger for a penny less than $750,000. If I let my insurance policy lapse she's out of here.
Horrible optics but if the husband is paying for the policy then he should be able to name the beneficiary. Only 100k? What a cheap B*****
You little home wrecker. Did he tell you he was going to leave his wife for you? Dumb slut.
“ Shame is a terrible, destructive force in individuals and societies,”
Oh, please.
Reason I know is when my dad died he left an insurance policy to his xwife (my mom). His current wife (step mom) couldn’t do shit about it and when she did try she got fired. Long story
It’s Utah, you’re both his wives.
Interesting she is trusting him about this.
When he dies she may be surprised.
Wow, a $100,000 prostitute.
“...he recently set up a life-insurance policy of $100,000 with me as the beneficiary.”
You are set.
Take the cash, tell the widow to have a great life, and put the 100k in Salt Lake real estate.
Hope this whore and the husband get what’s coming to them.
