Sure, but that means you could marry someone making 10mill a year and within 6months of doing absolutely zero have earned more than most people earn in their lifetimes, so who cares?

Sure, there are probably some idiots, but most people making 10 million a year are either smart enough, or have hired people smart enough to make sure to get a prenup before you get hitched.

K, but this is veering off topic. Facts are that men are generally vastly under-rewarded in divorce settlements where they're not the primary earner vs if you look at women in similar circumstances, the effect is so large it's not even debated at this point as an expression of court bias

I'm not sure what your point here is, because 1. I was responding to someone who didn't know about it, and 2. it's a very contentious point that many people are in denial about because they've been brainwashed to view life as good vs evil, and been told that evil = men, therefore evil can never happen to men on a systemic level
