Actually, I believe McCartney was reported to have about $2 billion dollars. So in relative terms, although his situation is also ridiculous, he only had to turn over about one fortieth of his estate. And the $700,000 a year child support order is only a tiny portion of the interest his billions make him every year. Just keeping things in perspective. Regarding the state I live in, I'd rather not say, since if on the off chance someone who knows me is reading this, I wouldn't want that person to connect me to this discussion and report back to my ex.
I got to this site through google. I was looking for some sort of local men's support group, hoping to find some help dealing with this. It's amazing, women have all kinds of support groups, but men apparently have none. I guess men are too "macho" for that sort of thing.
