Unlike child support, spousal support is often very difficult (if not impossible) to modify after the divorce is final, so getting it right the first time is a must!
I understand this, but I am employed. I do earn a living, but significantly less than my spouse. I am wondering if anyone knows how significantly alcohol use can be used to alter the actual spousal support figure. From the standard formula of 40% of a spouse's monthly net income minus 50% of the other spouse's net income, how large or small can the figure be adjusted?
