[QUOTE=RadicalGuy;2446189]I'm a divorce attorney myself. I love getting paid $400 an hour to fight clients' petty squabbles over the wagon-wheel coffee table or who gets an extra couple of hours with the rug rats. Is it a great country or what? LOL.

RG.[/QUOTE]My divorce attourny was very upfront about his fees. He made it clear that he would charge his hourly rate no matter what the argurment. If I wanted to pay his rate to argue over small or large amounts the fee was the same. Since I am a construction engineer used of thinking in terms of costs and not winnin at all cost, I was able to keep the costs reasonable, At the end my ex wanted an additional couple of thousand. I quickly determined tha I coud give it to her or to the lawyer, and still might have to give it to her anyway. I hated t let the ***** think that she had won so I said, it was worth the extra to get rid of her and have her out of my life. The look when she realized what she had really lost at that moment was worth the couple grand.

An ex girlfriend and her ex hiusband picked the opposite route, they spend several thousand dollars in legal efes argueing over something worth a couple of hundred just because they were so caught up in the idea of winnig that they could not let it go.

Why is divorce so expensive?

Because it is worth it.

[QUOTE=KabulGuy;2446349]Why is divorce so expensive?

Because it is worth it.[/QUOTE]Or because spouses allow it to be.

As we pointed out arguing over the ottoman can get expensive but Arbitrated Agreements have become popular and enforceable.

It souldn't be a hard sell to sit down and agree in who gets what vs spend a combined $100 k in fees. Note I said "shouldn't". 😁.

[QUOTE=PilotPaul;2446328]Realistically you will be using cash for most day-to-day transactions.

I tried using my visa at Johnnies in AC and it was a major disruption to the whole low. Just stick to cash.[/QUOTE]Agreed. Cash via ATM is king. Therefore, I never rely totally on just one card nor provider. I've had instances where one card or bank were not accepted but another was.

I've found Visa and MasterCard the most reliable.

Enjoy. G.

I asked my wife how she wanted to divide everything. I drew up the paperwork for her to sign. Instead, she decided to get a lawyer. We went to court and the judge gave me more than the original agreement.

The shit would have cost me only $35 to file the original agreement. Because she went to get a lawyer, ended up costing me the same $35 to file and an extra $15 to serve, and cost her $1500 for the lawyer plus the stuff the judge decided to give to me instead of her. Easier and cheaper to work shit out on your own, type that shit up, and file it yourself. Hundreds of examples to follow on the internet, but greed is a mf.

Here is a video of the army killing a guy in QC for breaking the lockdown. Note the onlookers mob about and do not socially distance. Note the other soldiers don't draw and don't seem as concerned. Moral of the story: wait til Duterte gives us the green light to bonk.

[QUOTE=CzarNicholas;2446331]Touche' RG. I hope you charge the females a higher hourly rate and then overbill them even more than you do the men LOL.[/QUOTE]In my case it would not have mattered because the fees of both sides lawyers were all paid from the same joint pot which reduced what we each got as the pot shrunk. My Ex ran our legal fees way up, wanting minor historical financial details daily for over six months costing both of us thousands. For example, "what happened to the proceeds we received from a used car sale 5 years prior". You would not believe how many attorney hours of back and forth these minutia took and of course both lawyers were enjoying the fees piling up so did nothing to bring some sanity to the exercise. Got to stop this, my blood pressure is going up.

Instead, we get simpering and smirking pronouncements from a president who gets a hard on talking about how he's going to bully these poor people. Duterte's act ought to have worn thin by now.

Going to Pattaya, Manila etc for mongering is not one of those reasons LOL.

FIFO workers still travel as one idiot went to Bali recently and came back with COVID 19 - luckily he was found out on arrival in Australia and quarantined (and got a mouthful from the State Premier also).

Just depends but for sure is not easy for mongers who need to find solace in their homeland or themselves.

All we need is a few politicians on a "Fact Finding Mission" to Burgos or AC and I guarantee that dick sucking will become an Essential Service. Bars could even be given Diplomatic Immunity to reopen early. 😁.

I wish the senator that got busted for monger trips to see his AC hooker would just spread the word.
