Husband spent £50,000 gameshow winnings in just four months so he wouldn't have to share it with his - Polidicks

Winner, total winner. But, [quote]Mr Brown also used some cash to ‘live off’, having being signed off from work because of ‘depression’. [/quote] Whatever. Now you have no job and you spent all your money.

[QUOTE=gamerman345;37529922]What a sad sack of shit the woman must be. Its outrageous she can even try to claim the money he won fair and square, on his own. I would be fucking pissed if I won the lottery and some cheating ex-wife wanted to use the law to legally steal a portion of it, even more so if I was homeless.[/QUOTE] Hopefully the divorce judge can see the problem with her having those winnings and decide she doesn't get any.

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;37530519]Winner, total winner. But, Whatever.

I know a guy who is one and he's got a huge house, two boats, a jet ski, he's got lodsamoney.

Well good for him! It is my understanding that in divorce court, women usually come out on top. But some women are just lazy greedy bitches who don't deserve a dime.

[quote]As it turned out, Mr Brown was right to suspect that his wife, who he says asked him for a divorce on Christmas Day last year when he allegedly found [B]she had been having an affair with a truck driver she met over the internet[/B], would want to cash in on his lucky break.[/quote] Wow.

Fuck bitches smoke trees. This man got it right.

[QUOTE=lavacano;37530565]Hopefully the divorce judge can see the problem with her having those winnings and decide she doesn't get any.[/QUOTE] It doesn't work that way. The law will say what married people over there have to, or don't have to, share. That's what the judge will rule. That's why I mention that here he'd owe her half, even if he spent all of it. So he'd face a choice, he could choose to pay her the share she's owed, if he can raise the money. Or she'd simply get that much more of any property they were going to divide and he'd owe her the rest. His wages could be garnished or something. The point being spending the money does not keep it from her assuming the local laws say she's entitled to half.

I love stories like this, where subhuman scum like that whore of a wife of his get fucked over, though it is rather stupid the law gives her any representation or extra funds, there should be an exception for people like her so she ends up on the streets with nothing.

[QUOTE=supersnail11;37529683]Getting married is something that has always baffled me. You give the rights to half your stuff to someone who has no reason to not take it all and leave, and the only benefit you get is lower taxes? I mean yeah, love and all that, but getting married is kinda an [b]outmoded concept.[/b][/QUOTE] I still see it as sacred, be it a religious marriage or not, though the legal aspects about it in the UK/US about now are pretty damned stupid and sort of only shove the idea of divorce to couples before they even arrange the ceremony.

I really like the man in the OP. He seems like a nice guy, and he spent the money really well. First on removing debt, then a little bit on physical and psychological wellbeing, a bit on practicailty and then he invested in his future. Money brilliantly spent.

It's shit like this that makes me hate the legal system for getting involved in things like marriage where they don't belong. It's abusive legal shit like this that makes me never want to risk getting legally married.

[QUOTE=ButtsexV3;37532865]there's a difference between hating dishonest people and being full on misogynist.[/QUOTE] I'd say the same if it was the husband who was a cheater. This is one issue where I really, really, don't care about the standard. They shouldn't be able to get away with what they do and still have a normal life, they should learn never to fall to temptation when it is so easy to avoid doing so. No one should stand up for adulterers, simply to uphold a 'progressive' social standard.

Even then, people who do terrible things need to be punished severely. And there is a big difference between adultery and polygamy among other things, so there isn't really a way to blur the topic or push it into a moral grey zone.

Deception is one thing, though betraying your own family by essentially abandoning them and then (possibly) lying about it isn't something I'd like to think as happening at this moment.

[QUOTE=beanhead;37528322]He won the money, its his to keep and spend as he wants[/QUOTE] Thing is that once two people are married (at least by Czech law, and I presume in similar way in this guy's case), all investments they make are done of collective money, so even all benefits they reap together. Obviously, in this particular case, she already completely disregarded him, they were living separate, and they were in process of divorce, so common sense says she doesn't deserve a dime - thing is that's something the court has to decide, because legally, she has right for half of it, at least unless the judge finds otherwise for the obvious reasons.

He probably isn't going to spend a dime on her, except indirectly for the legal fees.
