As a man of resources and supposed intelligence - he should have had a prenup. Simple.
As I said on the 4 mo. posting ... much of what you want in divorce is possible.... if people choose to act that way. Very few do. If "I" choose not to have a prenup and pay the price - then it is my own damn fault ... and nobody else's business.
The system is hardly as broken as you would like to make it appear. There are problems. And both men and women can get treated unfairly within it. There is no magic bullet to fix it either.
Actually there is one ... if someone is so concerned about being "taken" then they should not get involved in a relationship. If you want a simple business arrangement with no strings, then you should not consider marriage or even dating. There are people you can hire for that.
For me ... I would rather have a relationship of merit. A meeting of equals.
