What would your alimony payments have to be to maintain a 590 million dollar yacht?

Michaels claims in court documents obtained by the Journal that Geffen once told him he wouldn't want such a 'money suck.'

The yacht or the husband?

Constant maintenance, dock fees, and constant, never ending cleaning and shining.

“ Geffen, 82, first connected with Donovan Michaels, 32 - also known as David Armstrong - on SeekingArangements.com in 2016 and went on a date the billionaire said cost him $10,000.”

Having a basketball court on your yacht is only worth it if you might play basketball.

If you ever owned a boat, just think of all of those expenses and magnify them. Heck, the crew can be pretty expensive. A few years ago, I read an industry publication that noted that the going annual pay for a yacht captain was about $1,000 per foot of the ship’s length. So, the captain of this yacht is earning nearly a half million bucks per year. Then, add the costs of the rest of the crew.

accused Geffen in the lawsuit of of using a 'toxic mix of seduction, control, promises of love, and lavish displays of wealth to entrap' him in 'a cycle of dependency, submission, and humiliation'.

He’s a Record Producer dude! How do you think he made all that money?

Do any other Freepers remember a story back in the Clinton years about Bill Clinton and Geffen. Geffen brought his boytoy of the time into the Oval Office, and yelled at Clinton and treated him like a lackey. I can't believe I'm the only Freeper who remembers this? I know it was on FR back then.



Geffen later became disgusted by Clinton when he pardoned Marc Rich, but not Leopard Peltier. and he got out of politics for two presidential cycles.

Let him have it.

The maintenance costs will bankrupt him.

“Billionaire mogul David Geffen’s refusal to leave his now ex-husband his $590 million superyacht “

so, what is Geffen planning to do with his yacht while he’s dead?

i was thinking if Geffen REALLY wanted to f**k his trophy husband from beyond the grave, he’d bequest him the damn superyacht!
