Just marry someone who makes a lot more than you.
It's the days of equal rights. A woman's job needs to be a part of the equation when you're considering whether to be involved with her.
This guy made a ton of mistakes.
First of all, he got a date with a woman at a gas station. That's no chance meetup, that's a woman who saw the kind of car a divorced multi-millionaire drives and wanted in.
Then he showered a woman with cash when she was blatantly avoiding co-habitation to keep the alimony going, then proposed to her with a 7.5 carat diamond ring (that's probably over a million right there) but demanding a pre-nup.
Did he think that she'd want to take a chance on both losing her current alimony and not getting any in the future? She's already been discarded once, she isn't going to chance being discarded again, but without any money this time.
Did he think she'd take a chance on possibly living the rest of her life on $250 a week?
This isn't a scary story, this is just a stupid multi-millionaire.
He was blatantly financially supporting her for 10 years. He was throwing a ton of cash at her, he knew that she was a golddigger, and he knew that she divorces hard but that still didn't stop him from fucking up the engagement by demanding a pre-nup.
Some guys are just stupid. The courts were always going to look at a 10-year relationship where she makes nothing and he's giving her the equivalent of 50 grand a month as them being common-law.
This guy inherited his money, he didn't make himself wealthy and it shows.
The problem was that he supported her after she quit her job. That means that she's been dependent on him according to the courts and that he's paying for her house. Most people don't have the means to do that.
The government takes a dim view of people supporting a partner for 10 years then cutting them loose; the government has no desire to support the partner either once they've been abandoned and made destitute,
It's difficult as a man but by no means impossible. Women who will have successful careers simply aren't doing the live abroad, travel and party away their twenties thing. That's like guys who spend their twenties trying to become a rock star or a rapper. There may be a lot of them, but they're to be avoided by anyone seeking a serious partner. The problem is that they're the ones who are doing a ton of dating, running around the online-dating carousel and generally slutting it up so it seems like there's a ton of them but that's an illusion. Far more of them don't want to have a casual relationship, don't want to slut it up and seek a secure life. That's what you have to look for.
The great thing about coming after the boomers is that no one wants to live like them. No one wants to go through a divorce, or to have an insecure life. There's some who are so scared that they turn away from it altogether, like the women you described but most people just don't want to live like that. The key is finding them.
So the next version of #metoo is going to be women looking up old boyfriends on facebook and suing them for alimony.
