The argument is that the more someone spends, the more they need when the relationship ends. This is something I find truly baffling about USA (well maybe California particularly) The thought that living in luxury for the rest of your life is some kind of basic human right, just because you "are used to it". And at the same time big part of the world is living in extreme poverty. 13 hours ago, AtariLegend said: While the money might be disgusting, it is proportionate and every female on the board would do the same. Nice generalization, but thanks anyway. I mean how can any woman who likes Gn'R's music can be anything but a lazy, overly materialistic opportunist who wants to marry a famous multimillionaire and leech off him for the rest of her life ? Having a career, a job or just living a regular family life (I'm not trying to bash housewives here) and being perfectly happy with that, is out of the question, right? But seriously speaking, if I look at Slash's situation, he married a groupie - it was obvious that this would happen when they divorce.

Yeah or business partner or something like that, but what I meant is that (like @Ratam said) Slash worked hard for everything that he's earned while she kind of sat back and enjoyed the rewards. Idk how in depth her involvement was with the business side of things but she certainly doesn't deserve as much as she's getting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it would be $405,000 a year per kid The kids are set for life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the money might be disgusting, it is proportionate and every female on the board would do the same. Slash isn't exactly on the breadline himself before people start thinking he's struggling. Yes, it seems extreme because these are super rich people who all spend in a month more than most of us do in a year or two. Granted with the resources available to Perla over the last 17 years there is no obvious reason she couldn't have invested in some sort of career for herself but we don't know what goes on in other people's marriages really. My sister has never worked since having kids who are now teens and from the outside it appears like she does fuck all but her husband never wanted her to work (which is a whole other side issue) and they seemingly fumble along happily with that arrangement. She'd be a bit a screwed if he left her though because wealth wise they are at the other end of the spectrum to Slash. We can't extrapolate anything especially useful about divorce from the rich and famous because their lives are so far removed from the average family anyway. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't she also look after their children, allowing him to tour and pursue his career? I have no opinion on the exact amount of money she deserves, but I do disagree with the people who think she should be left with nothing. Obviously, to us mere mortals it sounds like she's getting a giant amount of money. Then again, Slash is obviously a very wealthy man. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has absolutly nothing to with liking GN'R, it's life. These settlements happen all the time and it's less than 3rd of his wages, the only difference in this case is Slash has alot more money which is why the sums are multiplied.

But it looks like I have misunderstood the main point of your original comment, hence my overly sarcastic response, sorry about that . My post was referring mainly to rich people's divorces and the gold digger -culture (which I don't support btw ) and you were talking about divorces in general, right? Still, I can’t really relate to your way of thinking that this happens all the time or this is life, because: On a personal level… because I work, so I can support myself financially ( also - no kids). On general level - because of my country’s social security system, being legally obligated to pay alimony to your ex after a divorce is not really a thing here, it’s an exception. Voluntary alimony does exist though. I actually had to google that part, cause I don't know anyone who has paid it. Also here in Finland it’s very common that when people get married, both parties still keep working, often also couples with kids, (although it's also common that mothers stay at home first few years). When/if divorce happens, child support will be paid, if necessary/possible and that’s it. But this is really boring and has nothing to do with Guns and Roses, so I’ll stop here.

Kwick1 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Isn't Slash paying in child support $39k plus the 1.8% of his income? And he's paying that until 2036. In TX child support for 2 kids with no additional kids to suppprt is ordered at 25% of annual income. But that stops at the latest of high school graduation or turning 18. Even though the numbers are large percentage wise on the child support he's making out better than an average Joe in TX. The high % in TX is probably why it often goes uncollected. Of course Slash is no average Joe and he loves his kids and wants to assure they're taken care of well into their adulthood. but % of assets wise, Slash did ok in the divorce. It could have been much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
