Shes smoking those expensive cigarettes.

That is crap, I cant even fathom, how a judge can keep a straight face.

Greedyd money hungry and that is it.

Maybe she shops at the same places Latrell Sprewell shopped: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1266269/posts

Because she is asking for an exhorbitant amount she should be penalised with a $0 dollar award as punishment for her taking the p*ss :o)

Drugs are expensive these days. Plus you gotta keep up with the face lifts and the hair plugs, because daammnn, can meth fuck you up...

it is good to know that he is worth more just for living and not doing any work than 150 full time minimum wage workers. I say give her postnup agreement to me and her nothing. I could do so much good with that including get my wife the medical care she needs.

this is obviously someone who has grown accustomed to living on $100k a week and is more than likely out of touch with reality. Sounds like a scorned woman to me.

I'm sure 99.5% if the world and I could be very happy with a $43 million dollar divorce settlement. Maria's expenses are probably similar to George's, but she will receive about 1/8 of their accumulated wealth as established by a POSTnuptial agreement. $53,000 is her weekly expenses or approximately $2.75 million a year. Her complaint is that the POSTnuptial agreement of $43 million was COERCED and will be consumed in less than 16 years when she is 52 years old. Marie gave up an investment banker career to be his wife and help spend his $27 million a year salary. Therefore she feels entitled to an equal split of the $329 million net wealth. $164.5 million will allow her to live at current expense levels for nearly 60 years when she is 96 years old. Did I mention that when a 67 year old divorces a 36 year old that spouse is being cut out of potentially 100% of the estate as it is very unlikely that this was a marriage of normal expectations. Just take some of the zeros off the right side and it will put yourself in Maria's place. I love to take the other side of the argument.

1) Easy. If you are spending $53,800 a week, $53,000 a week will hardly cover your weekly expenses. "Douglas-David has filed court papers showing she has more than $53,800 in weekly expenses, including for maintaining a Park Avenue apartment and three residences in Sweden. Her weekly expenses also include $700 for limousine service, $4,500 for clothes, $1,000 for hair and skin treatments, $1,500 for restaurants and entertainment, and $8,000 for travel. At that rate, Douglas-David would burn through $43 million in less than 16 years.

Consider Karen Parlour, who is seeking a substantial increase in the maintenance paid by her ex-husband Ray, the Arsenal footballer. When they divorced two years ago, Karen wanted about a third - around £400,000 - of his annual earnings until their children are old enough to support themselves. Ray offered her £120,000, and in January a judge ruled he should pay £250,000, along with a lump sum for the same amount and two houses. Karen, however, is appealing to have her original demands met. It's the classic boy-meets-girl, boy-and-girl-marry, girl-divorces-boy-and-sues-the-socks-off-him story. Greed is almost certainly part of the equation. How Ray can seriously maintain that being left with only £800,000 a year would seriously damage his ability to save for his retirement beggars belief. Equally, if Karen can't live on a quarter of a million pounds a year, she must have a shopping addiction comparable to Ray's gambling and drink problems, which she claims to have helped him overcome. Avarice, however, is almost certainly not the whole story. When couples separate, there is often a strong desire for justice. Neither of the Parlours really needs the money which is in dispute. But both feel that they are entitled to it, and they will fight a grubby battle in the courts and the public eye to make sure they get it."

I think I could manage to spend that in a week - if I had the money to spend - although, if I were spending that money each week, a LOT of people would benefit from it!
