What I was trying to get at is that the law shouldn’t differentiate between men and woman I know a guy who put his wife through Wharton so she could use her degree to help in his business.Do you think he will ever get anything , not a chance .She was nice about it and agreed to accept a a 25k lump sum payment.
But that isn’t what the original poster said, was it?
We can all point to inequities, but the answer is not a blanket “the person who files for divorce loses everything”.
