Why Reform Alimony: Permanent Alimony is Old and Unneeded
States are eliminating permanent alimony: a few samples->
California Code 4320 - 4324 : (k) The goal that the supported party shall be self-supporting
within a reasonable period of time. A "reasonable period of time"
for purposes of this section generally shall be one-half the length
of the marriage. Texas Code Sec. 8.054. DURATION OF MAINTENANCE ORDER. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (b), a court:(1) may not order maintenance that remains in effect for more than three years after the date of the order.
You were married 12-15 years... you are responsible for lifetime alimony
Married at 22, divorced at 37... pay alimony for 50 more years
You will pay 35% of your gross income...so you can not retire until 67
It does not matter if your ex-spouse is capable of working, you pay FOREVER
It does not matter if your ex-spouse makes a good living wage, you pay FOREVER
It does not matter if your ex-spouse was unfaithful, you pay FOREVER
It does not matter if your ex-spouse abused drugs or alcohol, you pay FOREVER
It does not matter if your ex-spouse abused you, you pay FOREVER
It does not matter if you re-marry, you will pay the first spouse FOREVER
Even if you are married the second time longer than the first, you pay FOREVER
Don't pay your alimony, even if you don't have the money, you can be put in jail
At 67, you will have your retirement garnished to fund your ex-spouse's retirement
